The Bills and AJ Klein appear poised for another reunion. The linebacker is expected to re-sign with the club this week, possibly as early as tomorrow, according to a league source.

Asking for help is a sign of weakness. You must not show weakness.

KA is going to have a poop ton of Cap Space to work with
No excuses not to get top flight talent and fill all the holes.
If he brings back Okie and Girgensons, then he really doesn't believe his own mantra of not blocking the young guys.
Go get Vets who can actually play and lead.

IF they feel they're ready.

Everyone wants so bad to move on from Zemgus and KO that they're already handing NHL jobs to Savoie, Kulich and Rousek.

"Go get Vets who can actually lead and play".

You're still blocking the kids.

If anything, Weissbach might be more ready than any of those three for a 4th line job.

Amerks question…. Rochester and Syracuse both ended with 81 points. Roch had 36 wins and Syr had 35. But.. Syr gets 3 home games while Roch gets 2. Any idea why?

Josh Allen is single. Wonder if the rumors of him knocking up a nurse at Oshei are true

Realistically, at most there might be one spot to fill on offense for a vet and one for a rookie. And that's making some assumptions that may not happen, like Olofsson being traded and only one of Jost, Girgs, or Okposo coming back. Luckily offense isn't where they need help, they were 3rd or 4th in offense and they have several players like Quinn, Peterka, and Power, who will take the next step and become more reliable contributors.

Does anyone still think Ryan Johnson is signing in Buffalo? Again I hope I'm wrong, but I'm almost 95% that he does not sign here with the Sabres.

I mean, what is he waiting for?

He had a bunch of cap space last off season and used it to acquire bishop. My optimism isn’t high

A top 4 dman, a bottom pairing guy, along with a solid vet goalie on a 2 year contract. A 3rd line winger who's been to the playoffs would be a bonus, unfortunately that spot is probably going to Greenway. Now trade Joker, Olofsson, UPL, and some 2nd rd picks to make that happen.

Joker would be great on the 3rd pair, but you have to give to get.

If you believe Gerbe's info, it's the player that keeps flip flopping. Sounds like some in the organization are pretty down on him for constantly changing his mind.

Dolphins signed WR Chosen Anderson to a one-year contract.
Anderson was a cap casualty for the Cardinals in March, with his release saving $12 million in cap space. He split time between Arizona and Carolina last year after he was traded from the Panthers in Week 8. Anderson had just seven catches in his 10 games with the Cardinals and has set career lows in receiving yards each of the past two years. Entering his age-30 season, Anderson is unlikely to regain his 2020 form, but gives Miami another deep threat and should see time in three-wide sets.


Maybe " Chosen" should learn how to catch the ball.

I don't think he "needs" his help. There's nothing wrong with wanting his help. Why wouldn't you use every resource available to improve your team?
- TheSabresTaco

Really? So you think the other 5 guys in the room helping Adams aren't enough? I mean you only got 12-15 scouts and management.

Every other GM in the league must be trash for not asking his entire team which players to go get.

I mean why wouldn't you use every resource in the organization?

Utter nonsense.
