Beanie killing it ..... and nothing insanely over priced...

No boat anchor contracts, we can escape all of these players in 2 years or less.

Also, per PFF's "best low budget options"

T TY NSEKHE
If you’re a team in need of short-term tackle help, there may be no better, or cheaper, option than the career backup. Calling him a backup does a disservice to how well the 33-year old has played in Washington though. On 1,287 snaps across every single position except center on the offensive line over the last four seasons, Nsekhe has a pass-blocking grade of 76.4 and a run-blocking grade of 70.7.

WR JOHN BROWN
The last time Brown played with a quarterback who earned a PFF passing grade over 75.0 was 2015. In that season, Brown’s second in the NFL, the wideout went for over 1,000 yards and finished 15th in yards per route run (2.0). That deep speed hasn’t disappeared, he simply hasn’t had anyone that can find him.

I'm sorry, but you have to legitimately despise the Buffalo Bills to give them anything less than an A for FA.

Even the #neverallen's have to love the moves.

Cannot see how you could say any move we've made is a bad one.

All depends on Allens progression this offseason. I think he makes another jump like after the injury.

I'm shocked at our activity. Beane lulled us into believing they were going to go in easy and look for bargains

It's imperative we raise the talent on the run defense.

OJ is no longer, uh, under "contract" and is a free agent.

i disagree. He used the word "judiciously" about 100x, but also used the word "aggressive".

I am reasonably surprised he's done this much so far. AND all while maintaining a long term, clean cap. Zero boat anchors. You're "stuck" with these guys for 1 or 2 years. After that, dead cap for most of them is minimal, if you feel the need to drop them. Not to mention that Hughes and McCoy come off the books next year, and Trent Murphy has a big cap hit but a very small dead cap hit, especially after this season. Re-signing Hughes for half the term and dollars would be a solid move. Also, draft his replacement.

A stab to the left, a stab to the right and down the field he goes for a touch down!

The league is widely inconsistent in their suspensions we know this.

However Eichel has tip toed that line a few times.

I agree with what Eichel said after the suspension came out.

However IF the NHL really wants to limit though head hits and after McDavid got a similar suspension I figured he was going to get 2 games.

I am good with the 2 games.

I agree with all of this. Eliminate all head hits. ALSO, adjust the damn rule book.
