Ty's new contract doubles his career earnings. Congrats!

Bills newest DT.

Hankering.

I wonder how many who didn't then now do.

Use those 2 to move up and get WR Dont'e Thornton Jr. To me it would be worth the toss of the dice.

Nice. The Draftek site I was using had #171 and #175 so a little better!

So all the sarcasm in the Darrynton thread was premature?

Yes.

Just on Shakir and estimates on Spotrac for Groot.

Need the DT with the 1st pick. Also need secondary. They are not going to get a premier DE in the draft anyway. At least that's how it's starting to look to me.

I would consider Floyd WAY BEFORE thinking of a Von return. 1 year fully guaranteed $8M?

We won't see this until tomorrow evening or Thursday morning unfortunately.

It is my hope. Then they say, "If I can't get the money, get me to Buffalo with Josh Allen!".

I haven't given up hope on that but with limits. Maybe, just maybe, Beane can get one of these older guys to come over for 1-2 years for some fun and a decent ring chance.

Agree you can't push every player out. The biggest question I have is how Josh's new contract will be handled. So many (most) new QB contracts for franchise guys have a ton of money pushed out to the end and even past the contract years. That opens up a lot of money. I have typically been conservative with the cap (kind of like Beane) BUT I think it's time to do it. Worry about the consequences when Josh is on the downside of his 30s.

I'm a McD fan but I also believe that the DL is too straight forward. Need a lot more movement in the pass rush. It's one thing that's intriguing about the Hoecht signing. I want to see more stunts.

They had a lot of cap rollover ($16M) but the big move they have made is massively backloading Trevor's contract. His cap hit is only $17M this year and $24M next year. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/72380/trevor-lawrence

I'm sorry. I'll try to be a better fan.

Some of us do. My point is only 1 day has gone by.

I probably should have posted this here. Let's see what some of the other true AFC competition has done. Ravens: Have not signed a FA. They did lose a number of players to FA. Chiefs: Jaylon Moore and Elijah Mitchell. Bengals: Tedarrell Slayton, Oren Burkes, Semaje Perine. Let's give all this a little more time.

Imagine that! LOL. Panthers/Jags Super Bowl this year! Let's see what some of the other true AFC competition has done. Ravens: Have not signed a FA. They did lose a number of players to FA. Chiefs: Jaylon Moore and Elijah Mitchell. Bengals: Tedarrell Slayton, Oren Burkes, Semaje Perine. Context escapes a lot of fans.

Cook is under a rookie contract to play this year. I don't think he will "hold out". It hurts him way more than it would the Bills. Beane and his boys have to have a clue as to what Cook and his agent are thinking. They could also let him know they want a new contract, but they won't tag him next year. If they have any real concerns that he would hold out, draft another RB and re-sign Johnson for what he wants.

It seems to me that there are fans who just won't accept the fact that Beane is not signing a Metcalf type at $33M AAV. Instead, it's $13M for Shakir, $8M for Samuel and $12M for Palmer (or a little less). Which happens to come to $33M, same as Metcalf.

I do think the is a good chance they re-sign Gilliam. But I guess there is a chance they let that position go for an extra TE/WR. I wouldn't mind that is they use TEs as FBs.
