This is not a statistical deep dive, just a contract $ vs the player, projected impact on the team. Do you see a better value than Golladay? A bigger potential impact? I could see a case for Allen Robinson, JJSS for $8M? I think Robinson is a better version of Golladay so I'd say that's one. Do you think Godwin will outproduce Golladay? Is there another set of moves you would have made in lieu of signing KG?

And the price for JJSS is a real bargain. Durable, tough, willing blocker, and he's more versatile as a receiver than generally acknowledged.
We overpaid for Golladay. But it eliminates a vital need for Jones. Now Golladay has to play big and Jones has to step up.
C.Davis is closest....kind of a wash.... slightly in less $$$$ for slightly less player
The previous Bills regime traded two (!!!) 1st round picks and a 4th round pick to move from 9th overall to 4th overall to draft Watkins. Ooooffff.
Jones desperately needs a WR and/or TE or can use size and physicality in the red zone.
seems to me Golloday on a multi year deal is better than Robinson on a one year deal for continuity purposes
Those 1yr deals are great also but not what this team needs, let grow together and build something.
No...?

They also overpaid too. The TEs have to be part of your critique and they got 2 guys who don’t have elite attributes and are being paid a ton compared to their peers.
Our overpay comped with big upside, the Pats doesn’t. And I’d argue there’s just as much risk given Henry’s durability and Agholors extremely suspect production history.
