The BILLS plan for PAYING James COOK, chasing a STAR player and why we NEED more ‘SPORTS HATE’

40 comments

1. Play turnover is so universal how do you create loyalty

2. Please Josh Allen take a pay cut just like our president how much money can you spend in a lifetime

3. Spottrac has Benford at $21M/ and Shakir at $19M/

4. The bills have the most productive backfield in the NFL what more do you need

5. Let's face it the NFL collective bargaining agreement was a travesty

6. He doesn't need a full segment. He can ask for what he wants, the Bills will do what they do. I'd like more on possible players who could add to the defense. I like Davis and I'm sure Ty would return if they offered.

7. I’m agreeing with Dan here on all points.

   My plan would be trade this years 1 and next years 1 and whatever change/player and get Garrett.

   You still have two second round picks to get better on defense in a deep draft. I’d go DT and corner or WR.

   Good riddance to Groot. Why would you ever pay 20 million to a 6-8 sack guy. He freaking could not play contain against Mahomes and he ran all over us. Not even Jackson. Mahomes laughed at groot. If we could somehow trade him with the 2 firsts for Garrett I’d do that but to mikes point who would want a guy that’s demanding 20 million a year in his 5th year extension.

8. Cook is good he’s asking to much when he only gets 45 percent of the snaps he’s should get 8 to 10 mil a year we have a lot of key players to extend I love cook game but too much Barkley don’t even get that

9. What's he worth on trade? If you could get a high 2nd round it seems like a no brainer. Let Ray D take first and second downs, and get an extra DT or CB out of the draft.

10. 9 m a ear for a rnning back who plays less then 50 5% a game

11. Is Bedford the same player after 2 concussions in a month?

12. I’d do nothing. It’s not a real problem this season. Focus on the defensive line is much more important . I’d also consider trading Cook or Bernard. Championship teams don’t get too cozy with everyone.

13. KKKinkaid sucks!

14. I agree with Mike, Benford is the number one priority.

15. Welcome to the Dark Side Mike. Feel the hate. 😉

16. NFL players are very lucky to get a 2nd contract. That is the one that will set them up for a lifetime!

17. Cook worth about 8 million and with out Allen he would just be a average RB

18. Ty Team for being the best in the land!

19. Use Cook in the trade for Garett. Lol. Maybe he'll like Cleveland better. 😆 🤣

20. I was disappointed that Cook's negotiations went so negative so fast – I get you value your worth, but timing seemed off and I wondered if he was signalling that he wanted out of Buffalo – that was my gut reaction 🤷‍♀️

21. This comes from Cooks brother…I'd trade him. There's good RBs available….They'll go CB in the 1st Rd…all the top DLs will be gone and there's plenty of 2nd level guys at pick 56 and 62

22. Non football question. Curious what's everyone concern or not with photos circulating of the Bills players playing golf and taking pictures with trump with one of the players with maga hat on l can't tell people who to support BUT with the country's current climate was that a good idea

23. The guy has NOOOOOO leverage! We’ve got a rookie coming up, a great 3rd down back, and the draft coming up! Not to mention if he holds out the Bills will just play Ray Davis, & his stock will only rise! Lol! Cook is just digging himself a hole. Ba-bye!

24. I think he needs to distance himself from his brother and should have different mgmt from his brother. They are going to hurt him. Other owners are going to see that and pass.

25. "Moneyball" Mike

26. New name Buffalo Plus Fishing show. You guys are flip-flopping like a fish in the boat. And no more getting older guys at the end of their careers like Von Miller. And jenna, you break up with your boyfriend. You do not go back to the same bar where you met your last boyfriend.

27. 2/18 near Wichita ks, 1° with -23 windchill.

28. Celtics fan for hoops here. I watched the Celtics championship winning game about six times in the month after they won last year. If the Bills won ir all (or Sabres but, as we all know, that will never happen,) I'll watch the game almost every day until the next season. …And, I just got to the end with Mike about the Celtics, haha!

    That said, I TOTALLY agree about when Thomas sign with Miami. 🙂

29. I would trade Rousseau for Myles garret

30. RBs are dime a dozen trade for high pick and draft defense and another RB and sign a vet cheap.

31. Order of importance from and economic standpoint:

    1) Benford
    2 Rousseau
    3) Shakir
    4) Bernard
    5) cook

    CB and DE get PAID. The alternative of NOT signing Benford and Rousseau is tragic. WRs can be had. They get paid. LB and RB do not get paid highly relatively to CB/DE and RB.

32. Benford doesn’t pick the ball off… we run primarily zone… I can get an NYC cab driver to stand in a spot and not do anything…

33. Sounds like another Diggs and brother situation 🫣Maybe his brother needs to mind his own contracts 😮

34. Cleveland wants a developmental cb so elam and picks for garrett

35. James Cook was playing for a DEI mvp. Lamar Jackson is the real mvp

36. Let cook walk

37. Offensive line carried cook. Let him walk.

38. No one wants to say it but cook needs a damn hair cut

39. Yay! Sports hate. Didn’t watch SB cause I hate the chiefs and the eagles!! Pretty much all nfl teams cept the Bills!!!

40. Get Myles Garret. Cut Von loose, if draft is deep at D tackle and end then get one in later round. Need a go to receiver in first round. Cooke can be replaced, running back by commitee.
