Brandon Beane expressed to Bills fans not to expect much, very little splash. Taron Johnson becomes highest paid Nickle Corner and Curtis Samuels signs to the Bills for a 3yr $30M deal!!

What’s next ? Does the Curtis Samuels signing change the direction of the draft?

Rico weighs in with his thoughts!!

Ladies and gentlemen it’s your boy back at it again on the Buffalo Fanatics it’s the RICO report I feel like it’s been a minute since we’ve chatted some football haven’t touched on Curtis Samuel haven’t touched on our guy teron Johnson there’s only one place to talk about and what

The heck do the Jets think they’re doing let’s talk about it’s the RICO Port let’s go [Applause] ladies and gentlemen it’s your boy back at it again it’s a recoil report we’re here to talk about football we’re here to talk about the bills is the off

Season we thought it was going to be a boring offseason it seems to be pretty smooth pretty damn good so uh smash that like as you guys enter the room if you guys have not followed follow on all social media platforms the Buffalo ftic you already know what time it is and uh

Let’s get right to it where shall we hit off first I mean I I got a special guest that’s going to be join me uh shortly that’s my guy Carl Jones will be joining me and we’ll be talking about you know mean the Bills free agency what we’ve

Added what we need to add but I do have uh I do have some uh I don’t want to say Insight I don’t uh but I I have some thoughts on this 28th pick that I’m going to share a little later and uh it’s been circulating today but like

Because I haven’t been on since what last week um there’s been ever since this Curtis Samuel signing I have a feeling I know where Bean wants to go potentially wants to do uh what he’s doing because of Prior mistakes and it all ties in to what I

Think we’d possibly do with that 28th pick uh but I’ll share my thoughts with Carl Jones when he jumps on with me uh just in just a moment uh but folks let’s talk about something here real quick do we need to where do we go do we

Go with toron Johnson do we go with with the Jets we might as well just hit the Jets right off the bat the Jets are back at it again trying to pull some stunts and trying to smoo their way into trying to take our division that’s right I said

Our damn division they’re trying to come in and try to take our division so these Jets I don’t know who these Jets think they are but they’re trying to look like the new look Jets right Aaron Rogers at quarterback Breeze Hall my guy Breeze Hall at RB Garrett Wilson and now they

Signed Mike Williams Mike Williams a former charger the one that when he is healthy can be a damn good receiver borderline receiver one but brother can’t stay healthy so the Jets were like bump all that we don’t give a hoot we are bringing Mike Williams to the Jets and we’re going to

Give Aaron roders as many weapons as possible but here’s the difference Aaron Rogers ain’t the one calling shots bringing in random Cobb and Allan Lazard bunch of these guys that just didn’t pan out we’re going to bring our guys in and right now Mike Williams chose the Jets

Now here’s my issue with Mike Williams why would you choose the Jets like why would you do J because 40y old 40 plus year old Aaron Rogers is coming back is that what it is is I don’t get it you could have went to the Panthers that

Would have probably gave you a bigger bag you got a young quarterback out there maybe they could work some things around you had other opportunities but you chose the Jets why are the Jets why are the Jets what is it about the Jets that got you guys you I

Mean ready to go all in I mean that that was Jerry Jones’s deal he was supposed to go all in I don’t know what Jerry Jones is up to but I’m G tell you one thing I don’t care who you bring over to your jets you know what

I’m saying you still gotta come through Buffalo to handle business now does it improve your team absolutely it does I mean you gonna I’m not going to sit here and tell you that it doesn’t improve their team does it make me say oh [ __ ] here come the jets no no absolutely not

We know when we are on top of our [ __ ] and we’re not giving you the football like we did the first week we can handle business and you saw it when we handle business against against you guys on the second run first all we were just giving

The ball away like we were giving it to you like candy Josh was forcing it and we just weren’t playing our game so y’all took the first one you got to give it to you guys take that but it ain’t gonna happen again we’re no better and we’ll be healthier

At the end of the day that’s what it’s going to come down to we’ll be healthier we’ll be ready to get back to it and we’ll go from there but either way it’s not a bad signing for the Jets I mean let’s let’s let’s be honest and

Put our our football hat on it’s a good signing for the Jets you needed someone to compliment Garrett Wilson you did that that that dude is an absolute star and he did what he could with Zach Wilson throwing in the football speaking of Zach Wilson this brother can’t find a

Job anywhere they pretty much told him like yo we we ain’t trying to mess with you so we’re going to try to find a trade partner for you they can’t find a trade partner for this guy so they might have no choice but to keep him they

Might have no choice but to keep Zack Wilson on the Jets unless they just outright release him we’ll see how that plays out I don’t even did they releas him I don’t even know I don’t pay attention to jets that much I’m sure he’s still in the roster I think they’re

Looking they’re looking to figure some things out so Mike Williams coming back off of what did he tear his ACL what was it his ACL that he tore he did some he did a nasty injury so whether he comes back 100% who knows how he comes back who knows you

Got a 40-year-old coming off of an ACL how he comeb backs who knows he was talking about oh maybe he could come back maybe if the jet push a little some maybe he come back you might see him at the end of the season that’s the same

Thing V was saying remember when he T his ACL ah maybe not so bad you guys might see me in the playoff they cut his ass off did he return to the Von Miller that we know him to be not quite we’re hoping that he turns into the Von Miller

That we would love him to be this year but he’s two years older so what do you do with that it’s tough but nonetheless nonetheless folks the AFC has to run through the Chiefs because I mean they they want it back to back but don’t sleep on this AFC e being

A tough division it’s a tough division the Miami Dolphins although lost a lot of pieces you know they’re going to retooling they’re going to be retooling they got Tyreek they got themselves a run game they got Devon aain you know what I’m saying they got themselves some

Receivers they got Wadd so it’s not like they’re going to fall off completely and the Jets I mean they they got something to prove they absolutely have something to prove so they went balls through the wall and said you know what let me bring Mike Williams in and

Let’s let’s try to you know mean stay relevant enough and I know Jets fans are rejoicing right now I’m sure they’re sitting here going all right bet we we we on this now but let’s let’s not let’s not get it twisted folks you got a quarterback that’s coming off of a big time

Injury will he be the same we’ll soon find out I’m try I’m actually curious to see how Jets fans are are taking on this news because this this would uh this would be quite interesting because I’m sure they’re losing their mind saying oh [ __ ] we got ourselves a

Championship team now let’s pump the brakes a little bit let’s pump the brakes Jets fans let’s just let this all play out let’s let let’s let this all play out because we we’ve all been there where we thought we had some and it didn’t work

Out it didn’t quite work out the way we wanted to uh but Kudos kudos to the Jets Kudos they’re making moves you got no choice um but to stay you mean up and stay current and um looking at the projected uh roster it’s not a badl looking roster like I said Aaron Rogers

Bree Hall Garrett Wilson you got Mike Williams whether they decide to move on from Alan Lazard you got Alan Lazard that’s going to be on the squad Tyler Concklin as your tight end now what they’ve done which has very much impressed me and a lot of NFL pundits out

There they really improve that old line because that old line was absolute buns was absolute buns last year Zack Wilson po guy tried to do what he could there’s only so far you can go with that offense but now you bring in Morgan Moses a little older but he’s

Been a a very good right tackle for the for the Ravens for the previous Ravens so they’re bring in Morgan Rose I think he’s like a 30 33 34 years of age you got Elijah ver Tucker you got Joe titman with I mean they’re going to be working

With young Joe titman so that that’s that’s their guy they drafted him you got John Simpson in there and then they brought in you mean Old Reliable veteran guy Tyron Smith bro that old line then you could say I got respect for that because now they realize you can’t just Trot out

40-year-old Aaron roders with a makeshift line you’re doing him no favors so what they decided to do was well look what the bills did the bills we put some some guys around Josh Allen some competent guys around Josh Allen that could protect Josh Allen result one of the least fewest sack quarterbacks

Last year so they’re peeping what the bills are doing I know they peeping and the Jets absolutely did a great job with handling that offensive line that offensive line has it’s vastly improved so which should make that offense very interesting to see how they do in the

Off season and going into the going into the season will this AFC East be one to that’s gonna be easy for us to take heck no it wasn’t easy last year it certainly won be won’t be easy this year this upcoming year defensively they brought back C.J Mosley Jermaine Johnson’s

Coming back he going for his second year quinnon Williams is a dog they brought in Javon kidlaw if he could stay healthy could be real good John Franklin Myers they’re gonna have a good defensive line obviously mosy and Quincy Williams holding it down at the linebacker spot

Two great linebackers you got SAU you got DJ Reed you got Michael card as your safeties or your nickels excuse me and you got your two safeties and Ton Tony Adams and Chuck Clark Chuck Clark looking pretty decent nak kind can’t cap looking pretty damn good and you got a top 10

Pick so what will they do will they go with the tight end another tight end try to go two tight end set try to copy the bills I don’t know but we all know that this is a copycat league and in a copycat League what works what works they try to imitate you

Know that’s the drill that’s what they do that’s what that’s what happens so we will see how these bills and these jets these Dolphins these Patriots I don’t know what the hell the Patriots are doing but we’ll get into that another day the Patriots I don’t know what’s

Going on they got a new coach they’re trying to make some moves we’ll see how that far how far that goes but this is a three-man race to the top in the AFC it’s going to be the bills Patriots and Jets I’ll tell you right

Now one of the I mean I I can’t see the bills not making the playoffs again but maybe the Jets leap the Dolphins and the Dolphins fall out of it or maybe the Jets just aren’t good enough and they fall apart who knows who knows but one

Thing’s for sure this is going to be a fun year yet again in the AFC East you got to love it you got to love it so shout out to the Jets the Jets are doing big things they’re they’re they’re trying to put some things together I know Jets fans are absolutely thrilled

About this situation I’m sure they’re losing their minds and saying hey man this is it we gonna make it we gonna make it baby we got it we got our Squad now this is what we were supposed to have last year the the league better watch out here’s one thing

That you guys should realize and should understand you don’t know what quarterback is going to show up with Aron Rogers you don’t know you don’t know is he is he is he is he all the way into politics is he not is his heart into it is he very nonchalant who knows

I mean you know he’s a competitor you know he’s gonna ball out but his mind gonna be all there who knows bro who knows but for as a football fan you want to see what him a a true healthy Aaron Rogers can do with his Jets team the

Unfortunate part is you gota you got to play the the bills twice I’m just saying I’m just saying so it’s gonna be a good matchup and I ain’t trying to cap and make it make it seem like we’re gonna wax things we’re not you know what I’m saying we we lost a

Fair share of our guys but I ain’t worried about who we lost because uh I think we we made the necessary Moves In order to stay relevant in this league in this conf that alone our own division it’s just what it is it’s just what it

Is folks so that being said big shout out to the Jets they’re doing their thing and uh I’m sure that uh my guy um Carl Jones is gonna have some insight on that so I’ll probably bring this topic back up again in just a little bit but

Uh we’ll see we’ll see how that all all plays out and all that shakes out so that being said kudos to The J Man you gotta do what you gotta do you got to do what you got to do now the bills have been busy the bills

Have been busy today they brought in a gentleman by the name of Casey Tu Hill Casey tohill uh I believe a former Stanford uh graduate I believe uh drafted by the Eagles in the in the seventh I’m only learning about this guy because I don’t I don’t know too much

About him uh I got some of the homies that uh uh are commanders fan so I I hit them up and like yo tell me tell me more about my man to Hill I mean what what am I expecting from this guy because I’m I’m G tell you right now I wouldn’t say

I was led astray but uh Tim settle when he came over from the from the commanders I was told man you guys got a good one in Tim settle he’s that dude he’s this he’s that and the third I a little over it was a little underwhelming would you not say I I

Think I mean I’m not saying I expected more but I didn’t I didn’t see anything that was like what y’all what y’all hyp up for even my man Pierre was like oh shoot I I live in the DC area so I hear the radio I hear talk radio I hear all

That stuff man they love him out there they loved him settle they did not want to let him go but that defensive line was so damn deep that they had to let him run where the hell’s Chase young where’s Chase young at that’s how deep

They were anyway is what it is but uh I’m hearing good things by two by two Hill I mean with the limited starts that he had last year that brother had five sacks he had five sacks the eight games he started um was you I mean on

Primarily on the line so this is a guy that’s probably going to end up replacing sha Lawson like a sha Lawson type guy right he’s got long arm he’s got length so you know he can get around the corner he can mean Jack you up a

Little bit read the lineup but uh he’s known for being a good run Defender a good solid run Defender and uh you know a bit of a bit of a tool belt to you know we get into the pass rush with his five sacks last year so uh we’ll see I

Mean is is this anything to to really write home about it’s just it’s depth and you can’t go wrong with depth and if you have a Young and Hungry depth guy that’s great and what you what and what we have to realize too is like guys like

Sha law and they’ve been in the league quite some time what sha Lawson got drafted what 2015 when did he get drafted I can’t even remember when he got drafted but he’s been in the league quite some time now so it’s time to get young and that’s

Been the that’s been the the theory um 2013 did he jump did he jump in the league in 2013 golly I no no no I can’t be right I’m trying to think of when he got drafted when did that when did sha Lawson get drafted to the league man

Because I remember it was when uh when our guy uh I’m try to think when he got drafted yeah because when uh 20 yeah 2016 I was a little off I was a little off 2016 is when it came to the league you know what I’m saying we had

To we tried to move him around round and we had a nice defense and we decided to bring him on and change the defense up you know how that goes that’s a whole another ball game but sha Lawson was great depth two Hill becomes great depth

Uh five sacks last year like I said so I mean he’s got some he’s got he’s got he’s got a bit of a a sweet tooth to get to to the quarterback and what better team to be I mean added to than a team that is opportunistic than a team that

Rotates their defensive line so he will get his opportunities he will definitely get his opportunities and uh so what I’m getting from is from salb that he’s a Relentless work ethic guy uh he’s a tough worker he’s a coaches he’s a son he’s a coach’s son right he’s a he’s a

Gym rat he gets up in there we we know the the adjectives that that are used for for players like that so uh we’ll see depth is never it’s never to um never hurts to get depth and right now we do need the depth at the defensive

Front so this is why not bring that in and add that to uh to the Arsenal and we go from there and we definitely go from there so uh Casey twohill from the freaking commanders coming to the bills and uh our guy bean is not stopping I mean this

Brother said he ain’t gonna do splashes he ain’t gonna do anything special but for someone that’s not splashing he’s doing a lot of splashing a lot of Splash you feel me I’m getting wet right now with all that all that splashy doing right pause but anyway that being said

Uh I got my guy Carl Jones in the building I don’t know my man’s he what he gr goatee all of a sudden what’s going on brother G goatee these these lightskinn cats bro I tell you I tell you man these lightskinn brothers um speaking of lightskins we

Are lacking the lightskinn brothers on the the Buffalo Bills man we lost mikah High We Lost Jordan porer thank goodness we got we brought our guy teron Johnson back I mean he he’s he’s the he’s leading the lightskinn brothers on the squad right now he’s a leader right now

And then uh maybe we’ll add a couple more light skin Brothers on Squad because we’ve lost the quarter the quarter the quarter is diminished so we got to replenish we gotta get we got to get back on there so uh you know what time it is man if when you’re ready to

Go you you give me the signal and then and then we get popping because I know people been been wanting to hear from my guy Carl Jones what it do what’s up what’s up my man I’m glad to be back how you been I’m I’m doing

Well I I see you you trying to grow the the full go te what’s going on say man you know how it go winter you know Winer get a little chilly outside so you know switch up the look a little bit the face get a little cold know you feel me

Switching something up listen man I got you I got you I was actually I was actually talking to the wife of you the other day and I was like cuz sometimes whenever men we start to kind of try to experiment let me just trim this off a

Little bit let me just trim this off a little bit then you start trimming away too much and you screw up so then the inevitable part to happen is you got to shave everything and I say yo would you care if I just experimented and just shaved everything she said absolutely

Not there ain’t no way so would wifey allow you to just get everything off clear it clean I I mean listen like since I’m on TV too like I told her like let me experiment with the TV stuff too see like what the people at home been

Chatting about I Ain’t Got No Bad Emails I ain’t got no emails talk about I’m get that crap off your face yet so I’m G Let It Rock for a little bit it’ll be it’ll be gone you know probably before Bill season I’m just trying to keep it man yo

Let it let it go if you can if you can grow the fish ha on the side let it go now listen if if we get the jum on the side listen now hey now hey he let me tell you something I’ve been I’ve been I don’t have anything but I’ve been trying

To push this whatever the hell you want to call this on my face for the last like eight months nine months and wife is like you should just shave it so it can grow back some more I say yo I haven’t got it this high in this much in

A long time I ain’t touch it I’m G Just Let It Rock I’m Gonna Let It Rock and that’s exactly what we’re doing so uh welcome back Mr Carl Jones it’s been a minute since we had you uh there’s been a lot that’s gone on um since uh the

Start of free agency but uh I guess we’re GNA jump right into uh one topic of conversation one of I think one of your favorites uh on the team and that is teron Johnson we have decided to bring our guy back teron drivs it back

To the squad how do you feel about teron returning to the squad and uh and holding it down for us what’s the word talk to me on that I mean first off I think it’s welld deserved um the compensation for it as soon as um I

Believe it was Kenny Moore who just got resigned from the Colts about last week or so as soon as he got the the three by the three for3 we were kind of like all saying like well that’s the number that Taran has to beat and lo and behold his agent was

Like and me add one cent to the end of that right there and then we was gonna bring the same thing to the bills and they obviously agreed to it um but for another reason it’s it’s good that the bills bring him around is the fact that

They lost so much in terms of leadership in the back end with Jordan puyer Trey white and presumably mikah Hyde we assume nothing official year on that front but right I mean he’s I know it’s kind of weird for Bill friend to say this but he’s the OG of the room now I

Know rul Douglas isn’t young either but like Taran is the one who’s been there for majority of this run so just for the fact that he’s a hell of a ball player himself and he kind of represents this entire Bean mcder era as well I think

They’re they kind of had to bring him back for that reason you know are absolutely correct and the the contract is quite lucrative if you might if you might add uh he’s one of those guys where like some guys get paid and you’re like oh that guy got paid why

Would you pay that guy all that type of money teron Johnson is one of those guys that says if he asked for that money you give him that because not only I mean and then you’re the one that pointed it out to me very much uh so at the at the

Season win we played the Dallas Cowboys man the Dallas Cowboys were the Dallas Cowboys that showed up that day because of teron Johnson and the job he did on CD lamb and it was because of your film study and what you put out there that made me realize dude he locked CD lamb

Down CD lamb is primarily a slot guy I mean most of his time he spent in the slot and teron Johnson held him down I for one thought he’s gonna have a tough day with that brother but he absolutely held his own and the contract he got

Absolutely he’s earned it um if you if you’re sitting at the the contract here a three-year deal with 24 mil in new money that’s new money right now so you got 10.5 guaranteed at signing through 2022 and he got another 3.2 more guarantees March of 2023 uh and uh

Obviously two years practical that’s that’s the contract so his his cap hits though look at this for right now at 10.1 steel we’ll take that so that you know the money’s going to hit a little later after real hard but uh that uh that’s not bad that is not bad at all uh

Now if you look at Curtis Samuel we’re gonna talk about that just a little bit but teron Johnson coming through love what he’s done statistically what he’s done with his team as well I mean been in the game since 2018 the brothers played 88 games he’s got four interceptions he’s got one one

Pick six uh that was a big time pick six against the Baltimore Ravens this guy is just a dude you can play him in the pass you can play him obviously defending the pass defending the Run blitzing he is a pivotal piece to this freaking team so

Big shout out to teron teron Johnson would you say he’s the most valuable piece and are you sticking to it valuable piece on this defense valuable in the sense that they can’t run what they want to run if he’s not on the field um if if when he’s not

Healthy you eat like in previous iterations you have Cam Lewis who isn’t a bad player by any means but he’s obviously not an all pro and then because majority of the teams that position is the extra linebacker like Taran is a linebacker that’s on the field but he’s capable enough of fitting

The run which he did in that Cowboys game but then also going outside and and holding his own and pass coverage as well so in terms of that I mean you know I’m going be Pro DB Pro defensive back every day of the week uh but in all

Seriousness the the nickel Corner which doesn’t get all the love yet is so pivotal to most defenses out there of course it is man like listen this game is all about who can play in the slot who can do work in the slot and you better have someone that can play

That position I I saw somebody say hey man you could throw him on the on the wide and have him as bound your corner I was like just keep him where he’s at in the middle that’s where he that’s where he he lives that’s what he’s made his

Money from do not move that brother leave him where he’s at don’t try to change things up all of a sudden so big shout out to my man teron Johnson he’s earned every penny Kenny Moore was was the winner for a day or two and then my

Man says no let me beat that and how Petty of them to say you know what just give me give me a million dollar more just one just $ one million dollars more it felt like like uh my man Zack vaugh mentioned it it’s like a price is right you know what I’m

Saying let me let me let me let me let me do$ Bob and sometimes that be the one that wins it and that’s exactly what did the job for teron Johnson so big shout out to teron Johnson very much deserving of it and I’m looking to I’m looking

Forward to a big time Year from toron so let’s get into the offensive side of the ball Curtis freaking Samuel uh your thoughts on Curtis Samuel signing are you are you impressed by it are you big on it is it something that that that stands where you’re like ah I’m not

Impressed because I get a lot of people talk about how how great they feel about this signing I have not spoken on Curtis Samuel deal yet so I this is gonna be the first time I share my opinion but let me let me get your opinion on on

Curtis Samuel Sam he’s a good player I mean he went to Ohio State and I’ve told you about this before I’m from um Ohio so obviously I’m am my heart I’m on Ohio State guy so I saw him for a while he came in as a running back um it kind of

Shows when you watch him play a little bit as they running back backround to him he adds some versatility to the team um he’s explosive he’s really more of a yak guy I know people see the 4-31 speed and like oh deep threat not more necess

Not necessarily he’s more of a guy who you get him the ball and let him Rock in that way not necessarily 40 or 50 yards down the field um but I think it’s a good signing do I think it prevents the bills from going receiver in the draft

No I don’t because I don’t think he’s a wide receiver too or I don’t think at this point he’ll develop into one um but he’s a good player he’s obviously rocked with Joe in the past where he’s had his best year as as Pro back in 2020 um so I

Think he’s a good player and I think the the first thing that came to mind though is just a fit right where um him Khalil Shakir Dawson Knox Dawson K kind of all occupied the intermediate uh part of the field so it’s up to Joe Brady to kind of

Figure out how that works you know is that I thought we were transitioning more some 12 Personnel but then you add another guy who’s primarily in the slot um so it’s going to be interesting but I mean it’s not impossible I mean the 409 ners literally have like five players

Who all literally playing the same point in the field and their coach makes it work now granted Kyle Shanahan is a genius so I’m not going to compare Joe Brady to that but there are ways to figure out um offensive players making them work I was impressed that they were

Able to make uh do that do I think he’s a wide receiver too no but I mean once I want to make this abundantly clear because this is something that I think a lot of people have talked about this entire cycle in terms of the bills getting a wide receiver too you don’t

Get wide receiver twos in free free agencies good free good wide receivers or great free uh uh great wide receivers for that matter don’t hit the market you only get those guys by draft or via trade like if you were to go through the last 15 years and say man who is the

Best receiver to hit the market we’re talking about Christian Kirk um a washed up DeAndre Hopkins uh oh damn you going there huh not watch but you knowand Deandre Hawkins DeAndre Hawkins who not at his Peak right so Bills fans considering the market and considering what’s available in free

Agency in terms of receivers you’re not going to get much better than Curtis Samuel anyways for the price tag that you guys can for so thought it was a good good signing for sure so I’m gonna put you on the spot with what you just said I hope you’re ready to defend your

Spot uh oh he put the shoulders up so he’s like bring on um you said not a not a whole lot of receivers top-notch receivers make it to free agency and I and I totally agree you don’t let Bonafide receivers hit free Ines you bring them back home where they belong

Um so what say you on Gabe Davis Le I don’t think he was ever really a reliable wide receiver too I think he was miscast as that I think Gabe Davis is a good rece I think I think he was a good receiver and I think I know Bill’s

Fans are unsatisfied whatever the word you want to use with Gabe Davis he was a fourth round pick who exceeded expectations but he was miscast as the second fiddle to the Stefan digs I think both things can be true at the same time um he’s a good receiver I don’t think

The bills would have paid him what the Jags did but that’s not the bills problems anymore um that’s right so that’s kind of how kind of how I felt about the whole Gabe Davis thing you know what and I think I’m I I like that

The miscast and I think a lot of that had to do with that phenomenal game and I hate to keep bringing that up but it’s just it’s just what people remember and I remember asking a couple streams ago is was there is other than the Kansas City game was there one game where

You’re like that was the Gabe Davis game and it was it was tough for people to bring it up other than the Kansas City game and and not a lot of people have those type of games in the first place that was a great phenomenal game but

Like I think that’s what cemented him or made people believe okay receiver two we got it but I guess he never lived up to that hype um but maybe he does in uh in Jacksonville maybe he becomes uh a very big rud for great guy like really rud

For like like in the locker room and and speaking to him great guy just um rud for in Jacksonville all the way for sure no 100% ain’t no no question about that there’s no question whatsoever now uh getting to back to Curtis Samuel I’m I’m with you brother I mean

When we signed him I was like all right it didn’t really like oh snap cuz a lot of people were like okay now we we rolling now I mean I mean listen I’m all for a guy that does Yak we’ve been looking for this Yak receiver since Co

Be left we tried it with Jameson Jameson Crowder I thought Jameson Crowder was gonna be that guy until he couldn’t stay healthy and then we never really got a chance to see as uh excuse me Jameson Crowder do his thing isai Mckenzie was supposed to be that transition guy and

It just didn’t turn out to be the guy that we anticipated that he turned into we saw some we saw some moments but it was never consistent enough uh for us to say that’s our guy we found our slot receiver so obviously we moved on from

My guy uh Isaiah McKenzie so we’ve been looking for that guy we bring in Deontay Hardy we’re thinking okay maybe Deontay Hardy is gonna be that guy not even close to being the guy that we thought he’d potentially be could it be James Crowder worth excuse me not James crder

Could it be K Shakir that we finally found our guy because he seems to be the fitting footing the bill and then we bring in Curtis Sam so then I’m like all right bet we bringing Curtis Samuel so we’re we’re trying to uh I guess fill

Our team with the needy guys that we have whether they decide to you mean move him outside move him inside where everybody’s interchangeable who knows how Joe Brady is gonna have that mixed up but what I do love is that he’s familiar with Joe Brady he’s a Brooklyn

Guy so I like that he’s gritty so he’s gonna get in there I don’t know if you heard that accent or off the bat when I heard him talking I was like brh that was one word he said I was like man he’s from New York he’s got to be I’m looking

It up I was like straight up Brooklyn anyway that being said though gritty he will do I think he’ll fit in very well um in Buffalo my challenge is we’ve had all those guys that named in order for the and they could be very good Yak guys

But what I’m not even bashing I’m not even Throwing Shade but like Josh has always had just he could just never just let somebody just run underneath that football and just go it’s always on the ball on you and there’s really not much room for you to maneuver and move and I

Remember just a couple years ago he’s I have to do better on letting my guys make the plays I have to get the ball in their hands so they can you mean do the rack and the yak and all that stuff and couple years ago and it still has been

The same thing so hope I mean what’s going to change maybe the dynamic receiver that we have in Curtis Samuel does it am I wowed by it no am I I’m I’m happy to have him on the squad yes because it obviously improves our receiving room

But I mean I’m looking for I’m looking for another receiver I’m looking for another receiver and I’m sure Brandon Bean is going to be hitting that so which brings me to my next point I mean let’s talk on the contract too because the contract was actually I wouldn’t

Call it Team friendly but it wasn’t it didn’t break the bank it’s essentially a two-year deal uh for Mr Curtis Sam where’s my where’s my contract I had it up just a moment ago um so yeah it’s not a bad little contract three years 24 mil that’s the total contract 13.1

Guaranteed at the signing another 1.9 locks him to February two years pretty much a two-year deal 8 mil which is decent 8 mil a year I’ll take it and his cap H look at that cap hit of 3.98 and then 9.7 and then you know he ain’t

Going to see that that third year we know that it ain’t gonna happen so uh but big shout out to Curtis Samuel now here’s where this whole conversation comes in this is where I need your because you were having this conversation earlier today mock drafts

Are being put out there oh and and but you having that conversation today though I’ve been because I haven’t had a chance to stream for a little bit so I’m looking at this 28 spot and obviously the Curtis Samuel signing tells me what gives me the impression that I’m not

Trying to put myself this is Brandon be I’m not trying to put myself in the position I was in when I forced myself into a hole to draft KY elim I didn’t have a a backup situation where I had I signed someone you me to kind of you

Hold it down I put pretty much put my all eggs in a basket on drafting a corner in the first round and when he drafted his Corner whether he reached whether that’s the guy he wanted or that was the last guy that was on his big board so he says they drafted Caillou

Elim if you look at what caim has done so far he’s had some good moments but everyone’s looking at it like yo this could be a big time bust I hate to even use that word to associate it with him because there’s so much left in the tank

With this dude he’s so young he still he still got it but he just hasn’t put it together so Brandon Bean noticed I ain’t trying to make that mist take again so I’m going to get myself a receiver in free agency I can kind of chill a little

Bit I don’t have to go out and really pin my ears back and try to get myself a receiver so which brings me to this point here do we need a receiver at 28 knowing that we got Stefon Diggs we now have Curtis Samuel we love K Shakir so

Everybody says right we’re about to find out how much they do love him if we don’t draft one we’re losing it whoa whoa didn’t we didn’t we love K Shakir are we okay with him all right Diggs Samuel Shakir I mean if we had to go

Into the season with that it’s not the end of the world we can still work it we still got a franchise quarterback and we got D con Kad so we nice but do we need a receiver at 28 what say you I don’t think you need one at 28 I

Think they should go one at 28 but do I think that this the draft is a failure if they don’t go wide receiver at 28 no um um and I spoke about it earlier like you just said and I’ll say for everyone here on the Stream So This is a historic

Class in terms of wide receivers like I know every year because of what’s going on at the youth level in the Grassroots with these kids playing seven on seven at like five years old and how good they are but when they get they’re running they’re getting into the NFL at wide

Receiver better than they’ve ever gotten right quicker I guess it’s a better word and it’s no more apparent than this year with I I would say I’ve watched about 19 guys so far and I think 19 like about 18 of them are going first three rounds and I’m not

Exaggerating so like this is going to be one of those classes having said that that can’t the same can’t be yeah like this just ridiculous class like rid it’s a it’s a class where I was looking at Daniel Jeremiah and I believe he had 18 guys in his top

100 like receiver like it’s the class is loaded so but the same can’t be said for defensive tackles and safeties which are two still major needs for this for the team so the question lies the value if you’re the bills sitting there at 28 do you select defensive tackle

Two or do you versus wide receiver five or six maybe or versus safety one because I don’t think a safety will go ahead of them so that’s the predicament that the bills are going to be in because I do think if they go receiver at 28 they can’t go wrong because

There’s that many good ones but then say a guy like Byron Murphy from Texas slides or the guy like like Dani Jeremiah had in his Mock Draft today Jon Newton from Illinois if he’s there at 28 there’s a better and also the historical hit rate of defensive tackles

Is astronomical round one versus any other round like I believe out of the top 15 paid defensive tackles like 13 of them were drafted in the first round like you don’t find good defensive tackles outside of the first round the same can’t be said for receiver like

We’ve all know stories of receivers who don’t um who don’t get drafted round one but are still uh very productive sure so I say all that to say I prefer receiving round one but like bills Mafia if it doesn’t happen I hate to break it to you it’s

Not the worst thing in the world I agree I absolutely agree and if I can get listen Devonte Adams is one of the best in the if not the best receiver in the game second round right Stevie Johnson my favorite bill of all time seventh round Stefon Diggs the Bonafide number

One receiver that you’re looking at right now on this squad right now fifth round fam we don’t necessarily have to grab one of these cats in the first get yourself a guy now this is where I this is where I always defer to the draft guy

Himself whether it’s a DT I don’t know if I’m I’m all in on DT I don’t know I mean unless uh that tantre sweat I believe if he falls I don’t know if he if he even gets to us if he if he’s

There I am mad at it all right I am mad at it however if a safety’s there and we we need a safety you know we need a safety if you’re not happy with what we have we brought in Julian Blackman I mean we apparently we’re looking into uh

Who’s the other safety we’re bringing in uh it’s eluding Edwards right we we’re potentially trying to potentially look at talking to Mike Edwards he might he might have the edge right so to me go with something that will it’s a for sure we can get you on the field and go from

There here’s another thing I look into as well typically you want to jump into the round one receiver because you’re ready to replace your number one receiver I’m I don’t see Stefon Diggs in the using the word replace anytime soon he’s got at least two years of elite

Play left under him so you don’t necessarily have to go and get a number one bonified receiver you just need to get compliment to him he can still get work and get busy and if anybody says different kick rocks three straight years of 100 receptions he gets his

Targets he’s that nice let’s not let’s not let’s not forget that okay he didn’t have the greatest postseason we all know that but you know when it’s time to get busy that guy gets busy so to go and grab a top- notch Receiver right off the

Bat I don’t necessarily think we need to maybe even D trade out of it there’s going to be some Talent like Legette could be easily gotten at that position now if you’re ready to trade up and get the Big Top Dogs we’re not going to get

In range to grab him we’re not we’re gonna have to give up way too much to get in range and for what you already have a Bonafide number one type star receiver you don’t need to you can chill so then the question now becomes where’s Buffalo’s biggest need and the need is

At the back end at safety position so if you get yourself a safety POS a safety that can get to work right off the bat and change that defense give you a bit of speed because you already have your in the box safety and Taylor R you

Already solidified that you just need to find your free safety and then get your receiver in the second you’re good you a got to move things around so I’m not really sold on on getting a receiver number one here’s another guy that I was I saw today and I was like golly this

What’s his name the UCLA uh defensive end latu latu yeah ho smokes man bro if this brother Falls to 28 damn the receiver position damn that we have Von Miller damn that we have Greg Rous I don’t care put him on the squad he’s a Michael Parson type player

He will ruin your day am I tripping no he’s a phenomenal player I mean gosh the one thing with him that we’re not privy to and only the 32 teams who ask for his Medicals are privy to he had the medically retired from Washington three

Years ago because of a neck um and he’s back now obviously and then there’s no issues to this point um so I we don’t know what those Medicals have looked like he’s been fine ever since he got to UCLA and he’s obviously been productive a hell of a ball player um anytime you

Watch Caleb Williams play for like the Casual fans like hey let me go watch Caleb Williams and they’re playing against UCLA lot to lot out causing hell for that boy he was going so yeah I like him too that this class is exciting and I know the the

Receivers are the sexy glamour position and look I feel you like I’m having a lot of fun watching these receivers this year but these other positions the other players can ball too these players can ball man I’m just saying like we we need in order for us I mean listen just look

At what the Jets are doing right now they’re loading up on their offensive side of the ball they’re loading up I mean you know it was gonna happen so it’s cool so you need you need enough Firepower on that defensive front to make things happen I know people are

Sick and tired of seeing the def excuse me this Bills team draft defense def let’s go defense I mean the last since the 10 since the bills excuse me since mcder has been coached I think out of the draft all all seven drafts that he’s been part of I think the two drafts

Where we drafted an offensive player dton con k and Josh Allen being being the two uh if I remember correctly has been defense the rest of the way so I don’t see the trend changing really there’s really no need you don’t need a quarterback you don’t

Really need a receiver you don’t need a tight end your offensive line is straight you’re not going to draft an offensive lineman what you need defense you got to I mean it’s not a popular like you said it’s not sexy it ain’t popular but to me I’m looking at that 28

Spot it’s not a it’s you don’t need to jump on to the receiver and and who’s going to be available at 28 that you’re really like that’s the guy don’t pull a Kay elim when you just cause he’s in the first round you just grab him when you

Could really get some talented guys in the second round if you just wait and chill so whether one guy falls to you we’ll see um but that’s just the that’s just the way I’m I’m looking at it what’s up Dame what’s happening bro I got my my man dam is in the building

Right now he goes yo bills need to keep building the offense we have tried to stack the D and it’s not working go offense all day brother we but okay go offense all day want to grab a receiver 28 what if he’s just not that that dude like what if being really likes

Mitchell that’s that’s the guy I want but I can’t trade up to get him I I got no choice oh I’m gonna I’m gonna settle you don’t want to settle this is not the we settled for Kay Elum we settled and being I think has set himself up to the

Point where Curtis Samuel gives me time to really think about this I don’t have to make a rash decision and grabbing a receiver off the bat I can think I can take my time do I need a receiver or no okay the way the board is falling I’m

I’m good I think I can go defensive side of the ball I know it’s not popular and then we can pick up some good position positions in the second maybe some guys drop maybe some guys drop but that’s my stance on the receiver position I

Respect it people are like and I get it people are like dude we go defense all the time let’s go offense but there’s really not many places to go we filled our need at RB we filled our need at tight end we filled our need in free agency with the receiver

Position I just can’t see it not going any I don’t think we need to go anywhere uh Dame comes back and says yo we’re not it’s not settling we trade down get a Troy Franklin liette or Keon Coleman in round two then go Fisk I can roll with

That if we trade down I can roll acquire some picks maybe move back up in the second round who knows by the way how do you feel about Fisk that boy was super athletic motor that’s the first thing you see when you notice when you watch

Him play play with his hair on fire and that’s something you can’t coach um because because a lot of things with players this a lint of reason why players don’t end up working out in the NFL whether it’s it’s really for talent reasons like you get to this level

You’re good enough to play most often than not now it’s whether you couldn’t handle the lifestyle of being an NFL player you weren’t preparing the right way with injuries things of that nature I’ll tell you one reason if fist fails it will not be because he he doesn’t

Care about the game because that boy be running he he flies to the football he he’s the he’s that player on the defensive side of the ball we like he’s not getting no loaves what I mean by that he’s hustling every single time he on the field you ain’t gota worry about

Him not getting to the ball baby I love it uh how you feel about uh Troy Fraser uh man I I may be one of one people one of the few people who aren’t the biggest Troy Franklin fan I guess we are together we together on this and and

Mind you and I say that in comparison to the rest of the class like I still think that he can be a really good receiver at the next level I just have some other favors that I would rather see the like if he’s there at six or 50 I I I don’t

See any issue with the bills taking not 50 60 excuse me I don’t all right cool the bills can take but I don’t think he’s worthy of a first round guy um there’s some other guys that I would prefer to go be there whether it’s Edie Mitchell I don’t think Brian Thomas will

Be there but if he is go right off the card um you can even sell me on even a Keon colan you can sell me on it I wouldn’t be like man I would do it but you can sell me um I for my money if anyone wants to know ad Mitchell will

Probably be the guy who I um prefer that the bills um go with that 28 if they’re going receiver really is a free show great player the one thing with him to knock is how hard does he play things of that nature no ad Mitchell ran 434 you think

About Keon colemanan yeah yeah yeah okay yeah but I love ad Mitchell love everything about him it’s just the man he be taking routes off things of that nature so you hope that you can coach that out of him and hope that’s a college issue and not him in general as

A player that I heard that I heard that too I I hope that’s not the case as well uh Carl Jones for president apparent apparently you’re listen you’re winning people over baby n you know it’s funny I was a political science major in in college n I’m cool on that though man

Who would be your who who would be your your your your right rightand man if you were my VP shoot man you you want to be on the ticket oh you ain’t a Citizen though dang man we we can make some things happen you know how if I’m I can

Make something say If I’m everything’s willy-nilly over there so we can probably make some things happen right we can make something sh yeah I got you we’ll Rock together uh Keon Coleman 46140 bro you know what scares me about this this has Brandon Bean written all over it this has Brandon Bean written

All over why because the same guy that he let go for just just this offseason he was like thank goodness he didn’t kill his 40 because that dropped him and that was able that was that’s what was able to get us I see the bills eyeing

This guy and be like I’m just waiting for teams to just say 46140 boy drop that [ __ ] and then he’s going to jump all over Coman I can totally see it it’s a bsy move we draft someone in the first round or we drop down whatever we decide

To do I can see Keon Coleman come to Squad because I think they believe that 461 I’m not buying it I know his game speed I like I I’ll take that over what he showed in his in his underwear and all that good stuff but that’s just me

That’s just my opinion on it right now um but like you said this is a very deep class I’m I’m almost asking I don’t know how much you know your ball and how how far back you go but so I’m say that uh how dare listen thank you for that by

The way large mouth I thought you going to try to say me that I was true do I was like H don’t you dare don’t you dare anyway um some people say that the 96 NBA draft is probably the best because they had ballers in that you know what

I’m saying is this receivers draft class could it compare to the 96 NBA draft is it that good I’m I mean it’s funny because I I hate the term generational I truly do because people use it so d man I’m so like I’m sick and tired of hearing he’s generational we’ve never

Seen anything like him but in terms of the class in terms of the class itself this this class in terms of receivers isn’t like talked about in this light just because there’s 20 guys who can go top 100 or whatever the case may be it’s also that case because we

Have three receivers in the top 10 probably who in most years are probably wide receiver won all three of them I mean however you I know to talk right now with Marvin Harrison Jr versus Malle neighbors things of that nature one a or one B however you want to choose in that

Order Julio is probably the best I’ve ever seen coming out of college Jamar Chase is probably second those two are three and four and then I think of romad dun maybe Sammy Watkins Maybe is ahead of him coming out of college outside of that like we’re talking about a class

That is ridiculous and I’m not trying to exaggerate this like these guys are like no one’s Julio like and then AJ Green in that class as well like no one’s those two like Julio was different like yeah he was different like legit freak but like man like these guys at the top and

Then if Brian Thomas ever fulfills his potential he’s 63 64 and runs 43 like he he looks like Martavis Bryant without the the off the field issues and if y’all know any har Bryan who played he was different him he was different I I got flashbacks of just thinking about Syracuse versus Clemson

Back in the day but regardless the class is is great yeah it’s a great class everything about them um and players are going to produce at all round one two and three we see every single year and just hopefully for the Bill’s sake that they pick the guy

Whenever is if it’s round one two or three they pick the one that’s actually good I I got a question for you bro I’m I’m sick and tired of it sick and tired of it but like this conversation comes up at least twice to three times a week when it comes to the

Topic of Stefon digs oh Lord yes exactly what’s what is the fascination in your opinion what’s the fascination with folks talking about Stefon digs and be traded y’ y’all need to knock it off with this [ __ ] man bro he ain’t going nowhere even if he wanted to go

Somewhere he financially can’t from the bills perspective I think that’s the and listen I’m in the media so I get how some things Works in terms of the national they’re not like Keen with the the bills cap situation so if they float something out there they’re not thinking

About the bill a salary cap situation all hours of the day so I get it from perspective but like in terms of the Bills fan base y’all heard of enough people saying that the bills financially can’t move on and then let’s call it spade a spade here Stefan Diggs

Obviously by all accounts has not shown that he doesn’t want to be here like he’s he’s shown that he loves the bills and doesn’t has no issue playing here but he also knows what he’s doing on social media as well so like it’s not like he’s naive like he he he not naive

To that like he he’s not like he wasn’t born yesterday okay so he feeds into it a little bit right but like y’all y’all know he doing it so why like like when I see it so why are y’all so like so look if this was next year where is easier

For the bills to swallow the pill financially sure get get angry but the bills legit can’t do it right now they they will have to lose players to trade this they can’t and they won’t but every I’m seing an article here and there like

I was just did I was I think it was last week I was I was streaming for Bleach report and they’re like oh by the way the topic is going to be uh packages for for Stefon dig I was said what I was like I ain’t do I can’t do like you know

What but you a content creator so you gotta you got to do it so I was like every other side I was like guys I ain’t trying to make this this thing happen but if this thing were to happen this is what I hated it hated every bit of it so

I just want to get your your take on it because they lump media folks in it and I’m sarting to say you part of the media brother and you got to take your lumps yeah I’ll take that one on the Chan I’ll take that one like I don’t even have the

Energy to fight it like that’s why I don’t even respond to it no more y got it I feel you uh let’s let’s move let’s move away from from Bill’s talk and let’s move let’s go to NFL talk General talk the Chicago Bears Chicago Bears bringing Keenan

Allen you got your boy DJ you got DeAndre Swift you got Cole KT you got you know what I’m saying uh a bevy of they they they really enhanced their offensive line their defense that Jaylen Johnson come yo that team is going to be something to look at Justin Fields was

Supposed to be the guy to take over and they ended up moving him now before we get into the Justin Fields talk I absolutely hate what I’m hearing from Kenny picket oh you’re bringing in Russell Wilson trade me yo what happened to the oh you’re bringing in Russell Wilson bet

Let’s go bring on the competition I’m G show you what’s good let’s do it because Russell Wilson if if you recall when he got drafted by the Seattle Seahawks they brought in Matt Flynn Matt Flynn got G got paid made heavy money as a third round draft pick he was like all right

Competition is on I what was he that third round drafter I I forgot what round he got drafted it was a second or third third third round and he came in and beat out Matt Flynn and Matt Flynn got paid heavily but he was the backup

Canny pick it grow some balls and say you know why you’re bringing Russell Wilson let’s play so that being said Justin Fields gets traded to Seattle they’ve already given the job allegedly to our guy Russell Wilson should Justin Fields say damn all that I’m taking that

Job I don’t care if he’s a vet or not I’m taking that or is it one of one of these is it gonna be one of those situations where I don’t care how great you play Russell’s our guy we’re going to give it to him he’s the he’s the guy

We brought in here we’re gonna go from there how do you feel about that whole situation alog together first and foremost yeah first off can you pick it requested a trade which is kind of odd to me considering that you’re going to be a backup if you get traded like it’s

100% if you stay you can fight for the job but if you leave you’re you’re not sassing Jaylen Herz you’re not so that’s so that’s the Kenny pick argument that I truly didn’t understand and I would have I would have loved to sit down with him

And ask and truly wonder why did you request a trade now back to fields and and um and Russell Wilson reportedly it is Russ’s job to lose and Justin Fields was okay with that he actually wanted to get traded to the Steelers um there were some other teams that um were in the

Bidding war and and the bears were like we’ll do you a solid and send you where you want to go which I respect I told I respect that and you good you get you you get good cache around the league good good good Juju all that good type

Of stuff um is also kind of unique how Russ was Justin Field’s favorite quarterback like it used to be Cam Newton and then became Russell Wilson so maybe he gets to learn from a guy that he looked up to you know see pick his brain a little bit they play very

Similarly and what I mean by that um they don’t really operate on time and on target a lot they are vertical threats russing his prime Mo uh very mobile creating stuff when stuff’s not there um that they kind of remind you of like those old school quarterbacks where it’s

Either a shot play some quick or we taking off they don’t really operate over the Middle Field a ton like that was the biggest knock on Russ his whole career the middle of the field he just was allergic yeah and Justin Fields is kind of the same way so he can learn from

From Russ and and pick his brain a bit and and hopefully get his feet back on track because like I said was a big fan of him at Ohio State Career is off to a rough start hopefully he can get back on track hopefully he does get back on

Track uh and you know I mean we love talking Bills football is cool but sometimes you got to talk NFL baby this is this is this is where we we live in this is the space that we live in uh winner loser in this situation when

It comes to Kenan Allen going to the Bears who wins who loses are the Chargers surprisingly winners in this situ situation um who who who wins loses in this situation the whole Bears Chargers Justin Fields Steelers that that Trio what who wins who loses in that based off on paper I don’t think

Anyone loses and I think the Steelers win because they get a backup quarterback who they can maybe grow into something more so for for basically free a sixth rounder you not often you get a flyer for a guy in a sixth round that can be event rally on a rookie deal

Correct now for the Bears I think it’s a win 10 times out of 10 you got a rookie quarterback and he’s and the bears were weren’t number one overall bad this year that’s the Panthers pick I know so like the fact that they’re going into a he’s

Going to a team that has quote unquote the ninth pick roster that’s already a leg up on most number one overall picks like you just alluded to his uh Supporting Cast that’s better than any number one overall pick that I could think of so even if Kean Allen is maybe a

Little over the hill whatever you want to say I still think he’s a good player me too he’s a rookie running into that situation I don’t care if Keenan plays 10 games that’s more that’s more than enough for Caleb and then for the Chargers sake listen I can’t stand Jim

Harbaugh because he had Michigan boy but he’s won everywhere he’s gone I mean we want to go San Diego Stanford the ners back to Michigan he’s a winner and he all and all of his teams look the same exact way they run the ball play action

And they’re physical as hell up front I think what they’re going to do is mold that team and His Image um and really protect Justin Herbert and and make things Shake over there so they were like you know what Keenan you have a $30 million cap hit you won’t be in our

Future plans um we’ll do you a solid and I mean they tried to bring him back and he was like nah I want my P and I don’t blame him I’m 30 31 give me my give me my P give my P and I had a moner year

You g disrespect like that heck no yeah and but but Jimmy like listen I don’t need receivers that’s what he thinking he like I don’t need you Gus Edwards is gonna be tired bro they’re gonna run listen listen and when you play the Chargers this year button

Up your CH strap make sure you got air in your helmet it’s gonna be a lot of hitting when you play the Chargers I know that that’s gonna be listen man Justin Herbert I feel bad for Justin Herber a little bit because you lose Mike Williams you lose Keenan Allen you

Lose Gerald Everett like you lost your three main dudes back to back to back you lost Austin Eckler there’s another one you lost I mean there’s a lot of loses losses on that Squad so and you’re going into your contract like this is where your contract gets you’re that cap

Hit hits now so like they’re in a tough spot so Chargers will be it’ll be interesting to watch to see how Jim Harbaugh handles business uh like you said he’s gonna be a lot of running so that’s why he’s probably not worried about you mean having some receivers

Some big time receivers bro we’ll get through it we’ll get through it we’ll make things work but that that’ll be interesting in itself um let’s keep on national news and NFL news so we we see Justin fields uh going through his situation Dallas Cowboys ain’t making no

Moves I don’t know what’s going on with Dallas Cowboys what’s happening so let’s let’s go to I mean I was talking on this team just earlier today but uh the New York football Jets I’m not sure if you saw what happened today um I’m gonna not

Gonna put the graphic up right now but uh them boys got they got your Aaron Rogers coming back Bree Hall and now they bring in Mike Williams are you impressed by that decision to bring Mike Williams in are you like and yeah I think you listen this Jets

Run is over with when Aaron goes so go all in while he’s still there he’s not going to be there 10 years um it’s the opposite approach that the bill should have in terms that the bill should be thinking about the today and tomorrow the Jets don’t listen Robert silah and

Joe Douglas don’t have a tomorrow like if this fails they’re out of here over with your house is on Zillow like over with like so in terms of taking risks and Swinging for the fences they should but like for some reason the Jets have had issues over the past several years

They’ve had injury issues and they brought in a bunch of guys who have an injury history whether That’s Mike Williams Tyron Smith um so we we’ll see like listen if you told me that the Super Bowl was held in September boy the Jets might they might win it but we’ll

See how long those players last and I don’t rot injury for nobody I hope they do um last the whole year and and are healthy but a-rod’s coming off off an a killes Bree Hall has injury history yeah there’s some injuries over there so

We’ll see but I mean listen the GM as he should should be going all in and making these type of moves and the Jets have Brandon Bean last before we get out of here man Brandon Bean has a a big job ahead of him uh I think he’s done a

Decent I think he’s done a fantastic job not decent I think he’s done a fantastic job of having to make tough decisions on moving away from Jordan puyer Mike Hyde likely not coming back I mean very likely not coming back uh you you had to the big tough decisions had to be made

This offseason um was there one that surprised you the most or was every move that Brandy me made necessary and you’re not losing any sleep over the moves he made Mitch Morris I think that was the one that kind of took a lot of us by surprise I mean the Jordan puyer won

You’re like man do they really want to lose Hyde and puyer in the same off season I wouldn’t advise it but you know what they trust themselves and they’re betting on themselves I mean that’s the the term everyone using these days right betting on yourselves and that’s yeah and that’s what they’re

Doing in terms of their coaching and development so hey I understand that in terms of the secondary but the bills had a really healthy offensive line last year really good offensive line and to um change two positions like that because obviously so you’re changing to moving Conor mcin to Center and then

Moving David Edwards to left guard that’s an interesting decision but they are betting on themselves they are betting on Aaron chromer to develop that room and to to get it up to speed I personally wouldn’t have done it but that’s why I’m here with a mic um

Sitting in front of my my old jerseys and and helmet and not at one Bills Drive making good money so um that was the one where I was like man all right now if the offensive line isn’t as Stellar as it is this year I know a lot

Of people are going to point to the fact that well Mitch isn’t there I’m not see I’m not I’m not too like harped up on it to be honest with you I mean obviously it wasn’t a move that uh I loved I didn’t love it but I wasn’t hating it because that was

Something that I’m sure that coach was already discussing a couple years ago because of Mitch Morris’s concussion history and okay we’re not we’re not sure so I believe if I remember if my memory servs me correct there was a pay cut in hat when you take that pay cut

Now you’re subject to hey man we might have to let you go the next year so he was able to kind of stay on the team and do what he’s got to do but I think it was time I think it was time we needed

To get younger I mean you can’t hold on to an aging Center not that he’s depleted in skill but it’s just it’s a numbers game at the end of the day and listen Brandon being playing playing chess not Checkers man he knew what he was doing when he brought in Conor

McGovern he knew I’m I’m going to slide you over the center just get your bangs right get everything right and you’ll be fine and what I love love about this I can’t say love it but what I like about this move is that there’s not new new

Faces they’re still the same face still same nucleus we’ve all worked with one another I’ve we’ve all been interchangeable it’s never like I never played center you moved into Garden we didn’t have this lineup before we’ve had this lineup before so to me I’m okay

With it I think we got younger think we got more athletic away we go I’m I’m okay with it I think every move that branded be made I thought was necessary tough but necessary and we still remain relevant we still remain competitive and we got 11 picks to make something happen

He’s got a hit he’s draft he’s got a hit this draft is very pivotal to where the bills want to go not just this year but long term and a point that I want to make um in terms of the 11 picks and what Bean’s going to do in terms of

Maneuvering those he’s goingon to bring all of it on the roster I do want to put in y’all heads a little bit about um day three draft this year in turn in particular compared to 10 15 years ago um with the college game changing with nil and the transfer portal the way it

Is there aren’t as many players declaring for the draft early because they feel as if you know what I don’t need to go help our moms and dads if I’m a six round pick projected guy I can go back to school and make 50 $60,000 and

Things of that nature the I don’t have the number off the top of my head so excuse me for that but this year has the least amount of underclass and that have declared in like 15 years so what that does is that dilutes the the pile a

Little bit in terms of of the back after the draft cuz I believe in 2019 was the peak and then with nil introducing these players getting paid in college day three isn’t as flush with Talent you assume you assume as it was in the past because the quality isn’t there so I

Think that is something that obviously Brandon Bean and the bill scouting Department are very privy to but it was something that I noticed um with a lot of guys went back to school this year and you’re like man that doesn’t really affect the top but those guys who were

Fifth and when you get that draft grade right when the like when you get that draft grade and they tell you man you’re projected undrafted some guys will just go anyways like forget it I’m tiing like I need some money at least at least try

To right now you like no the old booster from Birmingham Alabama gonna take care of me listen it’s it’s it’s it’s it’s one of those things that that is it’s important to to have out there because those 11 picks now mean a lot more now that you’ve give that

Information yo I might have to just trade up and and try to get all my talent in the first four rounds maybe maybe five rounds because ain’t nothing ain’t nothing back there or trade out of these ones and and jump into the next year who knows but like we both are

Agreeing this is very pivotal this is a huge a massive massive uh draft class um for for Brandon Bean he’s got a hit because this is it we ain’t got the money we we broke bro we ain’t got the money right uh so we got to hit on these

These rookie deals we aren’t going to sign 11 guys that’s for sure but we got to at least hit it’d be nice to hit 50% but very rare do anybody hit 50% if we get one or two guys that are bonafied hits bro we’re laughing and hopefully we

Hit one on the offensive side one on the defensive side and we keep it rolling but uh that being said my guy Carl Jones came through and and spread some love listen man I’m going to be leaning on you a little bit more now because now

We’re about because I try to stay away from if it’s not draft season still in free agency mode I try not to get into the draft but right now the transition is too is too it’s too close so now I’m going to start leading on you brother

And uh my man Dame has mentioned something he go he says uh he wants everybody to peep uh football player by the name of David White Jr out of West Carolina go ahead and check out David David White Jr I think I I think you you

Posted that on your uh on your Twitter the other day so I had to peep uh and I liked what I saw so yeah go ahead and check out David White Jr West Carolina uh listen man Carl Jones what is going on with Carl Jones this offseason man

What what what you got going so let people know what you got going where they can find you what’s coming out shortly talk to me now yeah I’ve been chilling like you I’ve been unplugged you feel me love football but you know I be getting nostalgic like damn I’m

Trying to put where that I trying to put that boy on one more time you know but whatever I bet but uh no but starting similar to you transition into more draft stuff obviously been more keen on these guys because I watch college ball too but over the next few weeks or so

I’m going to be speaking with some draft experts who are much more much smarter than I am um with all the positions whether it’s wide receiver safety defensive tackle DN position that the bills need um just giving you guys a heads up we won’t be talking about Marvin Harrison and Malik neighbors and

Those guys because y’all not getting them so forget about it but anyways uh but we’re just going to just give you guys all the information that you need so you sound smarter at your at your work office like April 10th when you like at the cooler and you like hey you

Know about that that third round receiver Malachi Corley hey now the bill should get and now you sound smart so like we we trying to do that type of uh uh content to make you guys sound smart is there is there before I let you go is there one sleeper that you’ve noticed

That you’re like this guy’s nice and if people don’t start talking about this guy more he’s gonna fall to the right team and he’s gonna do damage do have you found that one yet or you still looking for that one player that’s like that one you fell in love with you’re

Like that’s the guy and he’s it uh two guys and I’ll give him two different days day two I like Javon Baker out of UCF originally I believe an Alabama guy who um transferred to UCF like his movement skills I think he’s going to be

A fine player if he gets in the right system and then this last name should sound familiar for people not Brenan rice but Luke mcaffrey he went to r Rice he is the brother of Christian and then the son of Ed mcaffrey um I like his movement skills he’s a bigger guy he’s

New to the position because I believe he was a quarterback Pro prior if I’m not mistaken I like his movement skills he is most certainly a day three so round five or six type of guy but I see those guys and I watch them I’m like man get

Them a good quarterback I think they’ll be all right Luke mcaffrey all right Javon Baker okay listen man we we doing it by the way you just said you mentioned something like yeah man I just want to put that helmet on run r one more time let me tell you something uh I

Was uh there was a CFL passing Clinic that was uh going on in my neighborhood uh just past uh this past weekend and I went to check cuz I miss football man if I can watch young kids play and I’m in a new Province now so I’m going to start

Kind of giving my time and maybe get back into coaching too I want to I want to start doing coaching and stuff like that but anyway neither here nor there so I’m watching the sevens they were doing the they’re doing sevens and I was talking to one of the head coaches of

The team and he goes hey man you just moved here yeah yeah you play ball before I was like yeah I played a little bit back in the day I mean nothing crazy uh he’s like yo man these young kids always looking for something to teach

Him and Coach up I was like yeah man I’d love to be interested then he goes you look like you can still play I was like bro I haven’t played in years what are you talking about and he goes I just found out there’s a men’s league from 25

Up you I mean to get back into it and let me tell you something not any part of me wanted anything to do with that not one bit it was a bit of an itch but I was like nah I’m good man I got kids

I’m too grown for this [ __ ] I can’t be do this it’s a young man’s game playing running back out 40 with guys that are you be regular ass jobs bro it ain’t for me it ain’t for me but you still young in it man so you might

Have you mean maybe arena league Maybe mean Trump jump in somewhere listen if I if I don’t get life for health insurance I ain’t playing in your leag there you go exactly what I’m talking about anyway yeah I me just even think about it I busted my hamy and everything it’s just

Not happening just not happening so folks I appreciate you guys coming through uh my man Carl Jones and I held it down and uh hopefully we start to bring you guys more draft chatter coming up I know my man is uh is gonna be prepared I dropped the ball because it

Was a week where news was flying Left Right Center and my dumb ass didn’t didn’t give this brother the link he was supposed to join and I went off on my own so we ain’t going to make that mistake again so we’re going to try to

Get Carl Jones in on some action with us and uh we’ll go from there man so Carl we’ll catch you on the flip side man and uh we’ll keep in touch brother be blessed I’ll see y’all soon yes sir that’s my guy Carl Jones and uh if you

Guys appreciated the show smash that like you guys already know what it is for my folks on Twitter salute to sorry for my folks on X salute to y’all for folks watching on Facebook and the YouTube go ahead and follow smash that like share all that good stuff and uh

We’ll run this back again maybe this Friday uh hopefully some good news happens maybe the bills you I mean bringing in safety who knows what’s going to happen I know Brandon Bean is working he’s working so maybe we’ll have a brand new safety to talk about if not

We’re going to be headed into the draft and golly the draft is not too far around the corner folks so that being said much love much appreciation for yall for y’all and uh listen folks we’re going to catch you guys on the flip side so we got teron Johnson back in the

Building we got Curtis Samuel that’s GNA be holding it down in the slot at wide whatever it is get the ball in that brother’s hands because he’s gonna do work and hopefully there’s some chemistry built between him and Josh Allen you already know Kush Shakir is gonna get his and Stefon digs is

Absolutely gonna get his and I see I love this is the thing I love about I love to be able to say and and and and we got D conc so fam what are we worried about well we need to draft offense we’re good on the offensive side of the ball maybe one

Piece but we don’t necessarily need to get that one piece in the first round we could chill at first when we didn’t have Curtis Samuel I was all about it now that we do have Curtis Samuel it gives us a moment to kind of chill out and

Really assess what we need and I don’t necessarily think we need to go first round receiver because the big dogs will be gone by the first 10 to 15 picks at the end of the day everybody else is Mumble jumbled all together so do you

Have to grab one in the first nah heck no you don’t have to do that so then that’s where we kind of figure out where we want to go do we go defensive line do we go safety where do we go where do we go and we’re going to find out very

Shortly in in the next short few weeks man so until then it’s your boy Rico it’s the Buffalo Fanatics and we will catch you guys on the flip side you guys have yourself a fantastic evening be kind to one another doesn’t take too much time just you know I mean just give

Somebody a hug a handshake or nod just show love man that’s all you got to do it’s really that simple so until next time folks you guys have a great night it’s the RICO report the Buffalo Fanatics catch you guys on the flip Peace M

  1. I'd prefer a 2nd round receiver, maybe even 3rd round, but they gotta have stretch the field speed!! regardless, we have size, we have quickness, we have great route runners, but we lack outside take the top off type Speed!. Like 1 trick poney Robert Foster, can you imagine that speed in this offense, with these weapons. Don't sleep on Penn State edge, Chop Robinson either, A.K.A baby Von Miller, as our 1st round pick.

  2. Oofff I disagree Rico, I think the Bills need to grab a WR in round 1, preferably Thomas or Mitchell. A guy who can step in and be a bonafide no2 off the jump then be the no. 1 in one or two years. I want an alpha not a good value guy, that position is too important these days to not have one. And let’s be honest Diggs hasn’t shown up in the playoffs or maybe he will if the 2 can pull some attention away from him. The window is now!

  3. The thing about BTJ not "loving" the game worries me. I don't think that will be a fit in Buffalo. You have to know these people love the game when drafting them, because it is not fun playing football in November and later in Buffalo

  4. I like Rico but you are embarassing for bringing up last year…..

    Jets didn’t have Rodgers for either matchup….and you here bragging about those wins

  5. As far as the division goes, Bills won that by default….

    And Bills lost multiple key pieces this offseason too. You can make the argument the Jets AND Dolphins are better on paper than the Bills
