Bills game thread

Watt's contract isn't the problem, all the failed draft picks in the last 7 years is. Amazing you're pinning the blame on the one shining spot in that era of draft turds.

Exactly. Tuitt quitting football, & Devin Bush being a bust didn't help.

Its definitely part of the problem. A huge part.

$30 mill for 1 player that isnt playing is a huge problem. That is a lot of money for one player and regardless of how great he is.. when he is in street clothes he isn’t helping us win games.

People love to bash this defense for being the most expensive.. well, guess why we are the most expensive defense?

and he isn’t coming back until week 10 IF we are lucky.

$30 million for a player they can't win without. This defense is a shell without Watt.

When does Kazee come back?

Do they have Joe Haden's phone number?

Does TJ play lousy when cam or minkah are out missing games ?

Agree with everything but the last part - although it's pretty much what I've been saying since the end of last season. I just don't see this team drafting a QB to replace KP unless there is a total disaster from here.

I view the rest of this season as an extended training camp/pre-season. Wins are nice, but the important thing now is to see what we have moving forward. A lot of focus will be on guys like Claypool, Dotson, Moore, Chuks, Bush & Jack, Edmunds etc. Who will be part of the future and who won't because there is no present to look forward to.

My problem with using the rest of the season as 'an extended training camp' is that half the guys you mention don't need more TC. They are vets that have been around. I would agree with it if the plan included a lot more playing of rookies and second yr guys. Problem there is the talent is pretty bare in terms of long term potential.

Here's my extended training camp roster:

Warren over Harris
Boykin over Claypool
Sims with more reps while DJ watches
Leal over Adams
Loudermilk over Alualu
Robinson over Bush
Pickens
Muth
Find a punter to replace Harvin and get him reps


Shut Heyward down for stretches and try to extend his career.

These guys are the future.
