It still wouldn't kick in until '22 at the earliest. They'll likely pick up the 5th year option too which is cheaper than a franchise QB deal; looking like ~$25M for the option, so a new deal wouldn't start until '23.

While true, it effects any long term deal they sign. Milano on the franchise tag I guess works for one season but after that they need to trim roster

It'll be interesting. I'd hate to lose Milano but they're saying he's due for 12-15m per year. I can't see them paying both him and Edmunds. The easy choice is to pay the MLB, but the fan favorite and the eye test says Milano

I saw projections at 11-13mil,
but that was before he’s been hurt this season
One would assume that brings the price down,
at least a little bit

For anyone that’s actually played hockey before,
this is a super interesting interview w Adam Oats IMO,
it’s definitely worth checking out

Beane is going to have to make some very hard decisions this off season
- jcragcrumple

IMO he needs to draft better


many of the players picked in the first 3 rounds are not turning into what we thought


phillips looks like he is on his way out
knox, who the hell knows
oliver, ford, expected more from both given where they were picked
edmunds is a mystery as he was so young when picked, might be better used outside

The Chargers are depriving us of one of the best jersey matchups of the season on Sunday.

They are wearing their Navy Blue alternates instead of their powder blues.

Ya, there is truth here. The team should have had better play from a number if these guys.
At this point in the cycle of team building and associated Cap, the draft selection need to meet or exceed expectations for the team to be able to contend.

For sure. Their best draft pick in 2020 was a kicker. Granted it's still early

I still don't see them signing both Milano and Edmunds long term. I think they have to pick one. Allen is probably going to make 30-35m within 2 years

The problem with Milano is that he’s injury prone. He’s amazing when he’s on the field.

But he’s barely ever on the field

The newest episode was by far the best episode / movie / Star Wars anything in a long time

It even beats our clone wars finally

Yeah, it was excellent for sure, but I like all of them ! And all the movies as well...I don't care what anybody says, they're all good. I even didn't mind Jar Jar.

Loved the previous episode when asked to walk on perilous perch above the lava, the Mythrol said "there's no guard rail on this " ... hahahaha !

He’s not a good John brown replacement.

I almost started Davis in fantasy this week then look at his stats when John brown wasn’t in. He doesn’t do much besides 1 game.

Allen also plays his worst games of the year without brown.

That’s why I would go after stills

I didn’t like the force awakens or all the new movies. Rogue one was the best of the “new” movies. Solo annoyed me. I liked the prequels.

Adding Bo Katan and ahsoka was incredible.

The end of this football season is going to be absolutely ugly with covid.

One of two things are gonna happen if they don’t bubble for the playoffs

- A star player will sit in the postseason

- we will find out about something shady a team did

In the future maybe, but for this year so far I'd say Bass is Bills ROY. His performance against the Cardinals was terrific. I think he hit from like 52, 54 and 58 or something

He’s been great lately but was a tire fire to start the year

Davis should have 6TD’s already if it weren’t for two penalties and a missed call.

I think Davis is the bigger “hit” as a 4th round WR who looks like a future #2

The pass he dropped in the end zone against the Pats would have been a big oopsie if Cam didn't fumble on the last drive

Jared Patterson for UB so far has 10 carries for 206 yards and 4 TDs and it's only the 2nd quarter.

If I’m not mistaken it’s his only drop.

I don’t need this to be a hill I die on but I think in the grand scheme of things hitting on a very good WR in the fourth is more impressive or important than a kicker in the 6th who’s not even top 20 in the NFL in FG %

In 2020 yes, having played in 50% of the games and limited within those.
Last 3 seasons, he missed 3 games total. Not sure if he was limited in others though.

In any other draft Davis would have probably have went earlier.

I can’t remember any year in recent history with this many stud rookie WR’s.

Pretty crazy
