If you don't re-sign Morris or Gilliam, you'll be signing others just like them for about the same money, so you might as well bring them back since they are already effective in what they do in this system. And they play special teams as well.

It'll probably be Mike White this year. I try to focus my energy on starters. I don't allow myself to get too worked up about backups. That's just me.

Wow. That's a lot of money.

Brown has the athleticism and burst to rush the passer, though. He just hasn't had the opportunity as much the way he was used by the Rams. Regardless, the Bills will continue to rotate guys and play packages situationally, I'm sure.

We need a 1 Tech. Joe Marino is high on Bobby Brown from the Rams. 24 years old. 6'4" and 330 lbs. 9.82 RAS score, so very explosive and athletic for his size. He is a good run defender and would have more opportunity to penetrate and rush the passer in our scheme. You beat me to it.

Good. I didn't want him. Really? He is just a guy. Way more hype than he is worth, in my opinion.

It's called inflation and supply chain issues.

He went to retrieve the kicking ball and the guy thought he was standing over him taunting, so he got in his face.

No, it isn't an overpay. In fact, he could probably get more from another team. But I'm frustrated with our defensive line and want some changes. Rousseau is not an elite pass rusher. He would be great if we had an elite guy opposite him. Let's hope we get that done somehow.

I was hoping for under 20, but this is fair. It is the guaranteed money that really matters.

Good post. Saves me from doing the leg work. Fans worrying about the cap this year aren't aware of all the levers Beane can pull.

Good for them. Marriage is awesome. Sometimes it breaks down into a fiery hellscape of doom, but it is pretty nice otherwise.

It's getting ridiculous at this point. What is in the water there in KC? My dad just moved there. He'll be assaulting people within a month, I bet.

If not, Sweat in free agency would be pretty good. He is a difference maker. The Bills can free up 40 million in cap space pretty easily with some extensions and restructures and a couple of cuts.

There are virtually no primary man teams anymore. Even the teams that play man the most still play zone coverage more. The league average percentage of man coverage is, like, 30% man, if I remember correctly. A high amount of man coverage is in the 40 to 45% range these days. That's just a load of bologna. You don't know what you are talking about. Benford is a top 5 corner in the league and every statistic backs that up.

Yeah, losing him really screwed up the game plan since they decided to play more man coverage. We went from an elite corner (Benford) and an above average corner (Douglas), to an above average corner and a shaky bust of a corner (Elam). That is a huge difference.

Oh gosh. It's so funny they both have the same name and same position. I forgot there was another one.

He is getting older. Already 32. I'd rather extend him once we see how he continues to play. And it will be one or two year deals from here on out for him. Edit: Wrong Connor McGovern. Ours is 27. My bad.

I'd love to sign him. But also, McDermott has been getting a lot out of lower priced and lower drafted corners for his entire career. Heck, Benford is an example of that himself. If they want to pay him, fine. If they don't, I'm not too concerned.

The 13 sack number states we have an elite impact maker at edge rushers, which is something the team has lacked for a long time. I'd choose that and it isn't close. We already have a player on the team who could conceivably be a 1000 yard, 10TD guy. Khalil Shakir. We don't have anyone on the team who has shown they could be a 13 sack guy.

Epenesa was just signed to a new deal last year. Cutting him would produce 4 million in dead cap and save only 3 million. He is pretty cost effective for what he is. There isn't a reason to cut him.

Retiring usually has negative cap implications for the team. And players almost never want to coach. That is suggested a lot, but never happens.

He needs a few years, but PFR gives his 2024 season an AV of 11, which is higher than any single year that Morse had. If he keeps performing like that, he'll pass up everyone but Kent Hull at the position. But he is already 32, so that is doubtful. Edit: My bad. He is only 27. The other Connor McGovern is 32. Our McGovern has a real chance to go down as one of the best Centers in Bills history if he keeps up his play.

Here's my ranking: 1) Kent Hull 2) Eric Wood 3) Al Bemiller 4) Will Grant 5) Mitch Morse There is a wide gap between Kent Hull and the rest, though. He is a top 10 Bills player of all time regardless of position, in my opinion.

It's a shame he can never stay healthy. He was really good.
