    Black Monday(UPDATED: Fangio OUT; Zim & Spielman OUT; Nagy & Pace OUT; Flores OUT; Judge OUT; Culley OUT)

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted · Edited by No Place To Hyde

    My thoughts that no one asked for:

     

    1. Fangio may well be gone, however keeping them in playoff contention with Bridgewater and Lock at QB and in that though division should be commended. 

     

    2. Brian Daboll will get a surprisingly low amount of reported interviews. I don't think he's the hot commodity that the Schefters and Rapports of the NFL make him out to be. Of course, it only takes 1 team to like him enough...but my gut says he's back here next year.

     

    3. Frazier on the other hand may well be scooped up by a team that could use some stability. Raiders make sense, though I think Rich Bisaccia should be given serious consideration with where the team is now despite all the chaos surrounding the team.

     

    4. One name I may add to the "Might Walk Away" list....Andy Reid. I feel like should KC win another Super Bowl there may be a chance he moves to a front office role with the team. This would (in my opinion) be the best shot for Bieniemy to land a HC role. 

     

    5. Wouldn't shock me if Culley is 1 and done in Houston as well.

    If he’s there. Give me Jordan Davis round 1.

     

    If not I think they’ll draft an IOL or WR. 
     

    could also see them trading back if there’s no one they’re thrilled about when they pick. 

    their current roster will only get more expensive and this is a deep class as well.

    I agree with this. That kid is a monster. I'd even try and slide up to get him.

     

    I think they go after IOL in FA. Some really solid players should be here...providing they fall don't resign with their current teams.

    Bringing Josh Allen along slowly - Always the debate

    I know I was very vocal that I thought McD and the Bills really brought him along too slow and what we saw in 2020, we could have seen more of in 2018 & 2019.

     

    Look it is water under the bridge, but seems every time it's discussed there is always a debate and those backing the Bills (and McD's decisions) will always go on about how raw Allen was.

     

    I was looking up Kyler Murray in another thread talking about Allen's 20 Rushing/100 Passing TDs in the first 4 seasons and Kyler Murray may duplicate it next year.  

     

    Then looked at Murray's College stats, vs. Josh's and was so surprised how little Murray played in college and very similar totals.

    And there was no question Kyler was the QB and given free reigns from day 1.

     

    Again just something I found interesting......  Flame away.

    It's going to be interesting to see how Beane moves the $$$ around. I know many people wouldn't be a big fan of it, but don't be surprised if Edmunds gets an extension that lowers his cap number to make some room. I fully expect Beasley to be released and some of that money we gain used to re-sign McKenzie. I also fully expect Klein to be released to save that $5.2M as well. I also wouldn't be surprised to see them let Matakevich go either as his $3.25M cap hit for a ST player is pretty steep considering what we are up against cap wise. That would add another $2.5M back to the books. If Morse retires, or is cut, that's another $8M. All in total, I expect us to hit FA with around $24-$27M. That isn't really much to work with if we are trying to keep some of our guys about to hit the FA market. 

    I would expect them to rework some deals as well. Diggs, White and Dawkins jump off the page as 3 I could easily see done to open some huge chunks of cap space. I also wouldn't assume Daryl Williams is back as well. 

     

    I'd estimate that the $24-27M is base floor of what the could enter FA with...with much more from the restructured deals. My best guess is $45-$55M after those are reworked and a few other roster tweaks. 

     

    Still, not a staggering amount however if they structure the contracts well they could walk out of FA with some very nice upgrades IMO.

    OT Where does Russ Wilson end up?

    Well this late in Russ' career he's only going to play exactly where he wants to play and his agent will make that known.  That rules out teams like the Jets, Giants etc

    and somewhat hurts what Seattle can get for the guy.

     

    I could see Russ ending up w the Niners and Trey Lance goes to Seattle with another player and some picks.  Pitt is also screwed at QB and could possibly see them going hard to Aaron or Russ in the offseason.

    There is a LOT more than football in heading to Jersey. Close proximity to NYC tying in endorsement deals and his wife's music career.

     

    Shocked that more people don't understand that for many (and I'd estimate it's a strong majority) of players couldn't care less about who the play for or feel they "must have" a championship. 30 years ago, sure. These days many are more aligned with exposure and making the best money possible in their career setting up potential after career possibilities. That happens for a guy like Russ in NJ.

    Antonio Williams released

    Not upset by this.  For some reason our fanbase gets really enamored with project players (Duke Williams, Christian Wade, Antonio Williams).  When these types get released people seem so perplexed...it's almost as though the actual coaches and talent evaluators in the NFL know more than fans.

    Johnnycage dropping the truth bomb! Love to see it.

     

    Agree 100% with this. I am a bit suprised that he never saw a call up with the struggles of Moss and Breida...however that in and of itself may very well be the reason.

    Big Ben might, might not, maybe, but probably retiring.

    I actually don't think he's going to retire - I think he meant that it's his last game playing for the Steelers at Heinz Field.  I think he thinks (incredibly) that he can still play, and I suspect we'll see one of those sad late-career "I've still got it" tours where he tries to latch onto some new team in need of a veteran QB.

    I agree. And some team will sign him and give him that chance. Personally, I would love to see him head to Cleveland to be "competition" for Mayfield. That would be funny to me on several levels.
