Getting Q.Williams hardly means we’ll lose Milano & others
There’s plenty of guys we can (and should) cut to make Cap space - jdfitz77
That's a easy thing to do when the cap is going down atleast 25mill next year. |

Never said it was “easy”
Just possible
Go check out Spotrac for Cap info, etc
Hard choices will have to be made no matter what
But it’s an easy choice to get rid of say:
Jefferson, Butler & Murphy,
in order to get Q.Williams & keep Milano
Got a bunch of mediocre DBs we can get rid of too
Every Cap dollar we save this year,
helps us NEXT YEAR too |

In general,
I think the Bills signed a bunch of rotational players to give us depth
That’s nice
But to beat the best teams, were gonna need more additions like Diggs, and less like all the DTs & CBs we brought on board this season
Swap out some of those depth players for “difference makers“
Or at least for “good” players instead of average
(at best) ones |

We scored only FGs against the worst team in the league
That gets us beat vs almost any other team,
especially the good ones
Maybe I’m the only one that wants to see us WIN
in the PLAYOFFS though?? - jdfitz77
That's why they play the games. They don't ask how, just how many.
No one said they have to win every game 35-3.
And if they had a REAL defense, some of these games would have been just that.
They knew Allen was going to be a bit of a project when they drafted him. He wasn't ranked number one for a reason. He has taken the next step and, for the most part, provided this team with enough this year.
The kid has a damn good arm, a huge heart, he makes plays, and he has made a huge progression from year to year. |

Last three games Allen has been more last year than first four games.
Rookie QB's Justin Herbert and Joe Burrow are leaps and bounds ahead of him as rookies then Allen was the last two years.
He has to get back to the first 4 games. Not sure if the shoulder/arm injury he had against the Raiders has thrown him off or not.
He seems to really miss John Brown in his production - GilPerreault11
And those 2 came from better programs then Allen did with much better coaching and talent around them to work with. |

First we have to toss him in some body of water and see if he floats. Maybe that's why it was the Coyotes who drafted him. - SoCalPucks
No water in the zona |

I got a PM from Beady asking me to please draft him.
Can someone tell me what i'm missing ? - SABRES 89

Pretty much agree with you
Just saying Allen still has work to do before he’s truly “elite”
That’s not a knock on him either
He’s just gotta keep developing |

The Oilers were able to get something for Yakupov, but the Sabres were just going to walk from Reinhart.
I get it, he was a Richard to Boss's friend's daughter or whatever, but Jesus. |

The Sabres have given Reinhart everything he need to succeed, but he has to want to succeed, himself.

I’d really like a goalie upgrade
One of the ARZ guys would be nice,
especially Kuemper |

Yeah I agree there.
So we need two trades.... whatever this flames deal is and a trade with Az. I think we have the pieces to pull both off...
I am curious what the flames deal will be. Hannifin for LD? Bennett for truculence? Even though we are fairly full up at forward right now. I’m not sure one of the flames big 3 makes sense but what do I know. Lol |

Why did Sam take less $ than arbitration would have certainly handed him?

Why did Taylor Hall sign a one year deal?
There's also a gulf between "walking away" and taking maybe less than the arbitrator would've awarded. It also could've been a two year deal, IIRC, maybe he didn't want to be underpaid for yet another year? |
