Noooooooooooooooooooooooo. Unprotected first definitely nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I'm only talking about him as a possible temporary fit if Boston is looking to ditch him. Maybe a 2nd but really a couple 3rds or less to take on the contract. The rumor of his availability seems greatly exaggerated anyway. Dog days of summer and all that. I'd give them Rosen though if they wanted that.

That's not close to what I said, but you know that.

I find it weird that the team hires the tv crew. I wonder if that happens in any other market. I really don’t know.

There's disinformation in here. But just to clarify you support sending in armed US military personnel to deal with domestic law enforcement issues? You support the Potus at any point sending the military to US soil to do... anything the potus orders?

I heard the highlight shows will play Benny Hills Yakety Sax as the theme song.

I like Duff. I'm not sold on Dunleavy. But Duff is fine.

To answer the OP question, they traded for him so they obviously plan on getting him healthy and playing him. End of story.

If it was just draft picks, I would be open to do so. I agree with those who say a first round pick would be too costly, but for a lower pick I would be receptive to such a deal. The main consideration is whether adding him improves this roster? I would say yes.

According to sportrac, it’s essentially a 3 year, $30.1M deal.

I’ll be interested to see if there is a very large fourth year salary built in that the Bills can walk away from. Common tactic that helps agents crow about the great contract they got for their client. In this case 12M per year x 4. It may actually be 3x10 (satisfies guarantee) plus $18m 4th year that Cook may never see.

A first round pick for Mitts? Uh No! Fir a 3rd or middling prospect I’d think about it. He would give them a play making centre. He wouldn’t be my first choice at all but he would be better than doing nothing. The problem though is Mitts isn’t a burner and they seem to be building around speed. But if you could give up a pick and have both Mitts and Byram in your lineup that initial deal looks good 😁

If he can find better sure, but can also do much worse than him.

Oh heck yeah its a horrible sell especially when the perception is that you are pinching pennies... people tend to not give you theirs... they dont turn it around this year I see a real attendance issue as well as a player exodus issue... I hate the doom and gloom, but If we thought last year was it... the anger was high and the apathy was starting... this year... I think the apathy ends up being very high and people just wont go....

He wasted no time in carrying out his threat to deploy NG troops and federal agents in DC to act as a municipal police force. Why is it hard to believe his threats to do the same in Baltimore, Portland, and other cities are just bluster? Many of his threats have become reality since January and given that, we all need go assume he means what he says, regardless of his unparalleled penchant for uttering pure crap out of his pie hole on a daily basis. Again, I urge everyone to read the Project 2025 paper. It is a fascist authoritarian manifesto.

Doesn't kick in until next year. Thus, no current cap issue. He plays out the last year of his current deal. They did the same with OT Brown.

First order of business, fire duffer

There is a good reason Mittelstadt isn't here and no, I wouldn't trade for him, even draft picks.

Would you give up a first round pick for him? I would be open to it.

💯

I agree this is just about where I'd have him projected. If we take the last 17 games and his 5 assists that would average out to be approximately a 14% increase in production on his two year average. If we would project a 15-20% increase in production from that small sample, that puts him in the 12-14/25-26, 39-41 point range.

I knew what you meant, and I agree with it. Just having some fun.

That is exactly all I am saying. Any decent forward for draft picks is a plus. Not better than he was, but the roster better than it currently is. Temporary hole fill while Helenius develops. You got a better player who is available for draft picks I'm all for it.
