Bodine has a 200k workout bonus - so they would theoretically want to dump him before that triggers. Not for cap reasons so much as - who wants to pay a guy 200 grand to never suit up for the team again.

Trading up in the first costs a lot of ammo - i'm not sure its worth it. Wilkins or Oliver likely makes it to 9 - and we still have our 2nd and 3rd to address DE and/or Oline/TE.

53-Man Roster Competition
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to JGMcD2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Love the depth at corner, and along the oline. Corner i think they noticed how hard it was to replace people when others went down with injuries. A couple cheap contracts like johnson and gaines go a long way in fixing that depth. Oline was a disaster but they have brought in a ton of competition with guys like feliciano and long. I think the LBs could improve depth wise - not sure where alexander and bush both factor in. -
Shaq Lawson 5th year option
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Bleeding Bills Blue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can't figure out how to edit it - the amount would be about 12.3 million based on the average of the average annual value of the contracts ranked 3-25 on sportrac. -
Shaq Lawson 5th year option
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Bleeding Bills Blue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a gamble either way - pick it up and he gets hurt, you're stuck with him. If you don't pick it up and he has a career year, you have to pay him more. The 3rd option is pick it up - and if he doesn't get hurt, you have the flexibility to cut him with no cap ramifications, or keep him and pay him the contract. Lot of different ways this could play out - but assuming we're carrying a healthy amount of space over into 2020 (we have 75 million currently available in 2020 without carrying anything over, and we have 33 currently available in the top 51 that would carry over), I'd be open to the risk I think. We only have a couple of higher profile free agents in Hughes, Lorax, Phillips, and McCoy - so no major extensions looming for 2020 specifically. Assuming Lorax/McCoy are gone and replaced with younger players that would just leave Hughes/Phillips as the only real candidates to extend. -
Shaq Lawson 5th year option
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Bleeding Bills Blue's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
somewhere around top 25 money. the 3rd-25th highest Prior Year Salaries for the player’s position will be used. -
Decision is needed by May 3rd - What say you Two bills drive?! I voted yes - mostly because cap space isn't at a premium for next year, and you can cancel it for any reason other than injury.

All Troublemaker Team
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Schlicter's wikipedia page is pretty nuts when you read through it. There's like a 2 inch article about his football career. Then like 5 pages of gambling, stealing, fraud... pretty crazy. -
All Troublemaker Team
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I mean - is it... all time criminal disappointments? Or are we looking for actually talented players? Schlicter and Marinovich's career lines are... ummm. not good. They barely played -
All Troublemaker Team
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Gotta have Juice in there! Larry Johnson had a decent couple of years too Chad Johnson/TO combo - worked for the bengals right? Tyreek hill in the slot, assuming this all plays out like it probably will. -
If Allen is real deal, bills make playoffs
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to QBorBust2018's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe... for once... we'll play NE in the first 4 weeks of the season when they tend to struggle. We probably have never beaten them in december unless brady literally just sat on the bench. This is the year baby! Bury em!! -
If Allen is real deal, bills make playoffs
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to QBorBust2018's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Things I'd like to see - Starts all 16 games - 60+ completion percentage, and close to 4000 in the air. A real NFL offense. - 25+ TDs in the air - im cool with a few extra's on the ground but I want more damage with his arm. - Sub 20 total turnovers as a team - 32 is way too many. We were 6-0 when we had fewer than 2 turnovers, and 0-10 when we had more than 2. - Score 13+ in every game. We can't have so many stinker gameplans where we just looked totally inept as a team. If Allen can hit these benchmarks, and we have a solid running game - we will make the playoffs. -
Bills sign S Maurice Alexander
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to junior's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm sure he had a rather large backyard. Guy was living in a gatsby mansion. -
I'm not sure - the offense we had built was around 50/50 balls, backshoulders, and running. It didn't work. It was horrible. We couldn't beat man coverage. It was especially horrible with a rookie QB and a bad o-line. By the end of the year, we added speed and vertical threats - went back to some rhythm passing (which allen still struggles with), and completely abandoned the offense in the first 8-10 weeks of the year.

The way they approached free agency was too address holes and add competition. We still need blue Chip players on both sides of the ball. I hope they either trade down for some depth, or go best player available. I still like Oliver at 9 there if we stand Pat. Guy makes plays and would be a problem for everyone playing us. Helps the pass rush, plug and play in Kyle's spot. Hard to block, and constantly in the backfield. He's a bit undersized, but that was the knock on Donald.

We had one of the worst offenses in the NFL - and the only players we were losing really were members of that terrible offensive line, and an overpaid TE with a bum knee. We had a ton of cap space... so bring in a bunch of people - breed some competition at WR and along the line. Improve the RB room a bit, add a veteran TE who still has some upside. The goal is to not finish 30th again. I don't think we added pieces to get to like top 5 or anything - but the difference between the offenses ranked10-20 from a yardage perspective is only about 20 yards per game. We were about 50 yards short of the 20th place offense from a simple yards per game stat. From a points standpoint the 20th ranked offense outscored us by about 7 per game, and 10th outscored 20th by about 3. So getting to that 10-20 range is i think where we need to be. More than 350 yards per game, and more than 22 points per game. If we do that - we should be in the playoffs at the end of the year assuming the defense doesn't regress too much.

Bortles signs with the Rams
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to JK Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As good a back-up spot as any. Coach who's good with QBs, he'll have mcvay in his ear every week. I don't like him to latch on with the Rams beyond a year or two, but i could see him getting another shot down the road and hopefully learning from Mcvay.
