We will have to see how it plays out
at least beans has us in a good cap situation to make it all work
i think Spain is better then you are giving him credit for I have no idea why he was on the market for us good ol are sooo hard to find
I agree with you John...I thought Spain had a solid showing against the Titans.. not sure why he doesn’t seem to get a lot of love here..
I think people assume you can have a superstar at every position..Yes..Let’s see how it plays out through the rest of the year but at the moment I hope they make Spain an offer..

DE, WR and OT in free agency completes this team in 2020...
Then it’s over to JA..

I must be ignorant; never heard of the guy.
He had a massive year in 2016 their Super Bowl year ., but has been very disappointing ever since..

Id take him for a 3rd
Thats the Falcons giving us the pick to eat that salary..

If he walks after the season - Buffalo may have a shot at Comp picks for him and Spain.
I don’t really have much of an opinion on Drake, but I can’t see the Bills qualifying for Comp picks again..
You need to lose more free agents then you sign, and with the amount of cap space the Bills have, I would expect them to be signing a number this offseason... not as many as last year but still more than they lose..
Also think they will make an offer to Spain..

Long is much more versatile than Spain. Although I get the value proposition that Spain might be better. But in the end I guess you can't have enough Oline depth so I wouldn't hate the move provided that Spain would be Ok competing for a spot.
Yes.. Long is more versatile as Spain seems strictly a G..
But as I mentioned.. it seems they prefer Spain to start..
Long was signed early last offseason before free agency started.. the way his contract is structured tells me his future might be a little questionable...
However, he hasn’t done anything wrong in his limited playing time this year to date..
Beane has covered all bases and he can ultimately decide to keep Long as depth if Spain leaves..

I’m starting to think it would take three 1st rd picks to get Von Miller. If we were to get Von Miller with only trading two 1st rd picks this team would have a good chance at winning a super bowl this year.
Really?
Get on the phone to Ktulu and ask him/her again..
Allen will decide their ultimate fate this year

I can't see Spain coming back unless it is on a modest one year deal. Which might be possible since his market this past off-season wasn't too hot and his play has been fairly average or less thus far. I think long term they are going to kick Ford in at LG next season if he continues to struggle at RG.
I think Spain would be excellent as a backup but I would rather throw that money elsewhere if he commands anything more than a 3ish million dollar one year deal. Bates and Long are already in place as depth along the interior O-line and I think they are going to draft another O-line player high to push Ty for the RT spot which would add another quality bench player.
But they are paying Long more now to be a backup for another two years....
If they get Spain for the same money as Long, they will keep Spain.... ( $4Mil per year..)

No need to dump Long. He's under contract for 2 more years. Especially if they let Spain walk.
My point is if they can keep Spain , and they move Ford to G as was suggested in the post I responded to, they could cut Long who has limited guaranteed money after this year..
They obviously prefer Spain as he is starting now..
Of course his cost next year and beyond remains to be seen..
Agree if they lose Spain then keep Long...

I hope he comes back and plays next year.
He deserves a SB ring before he calls it quits..

Jon has a 2 year deal I think.....I think he is our RG
I think Spain is going to be cut loose as he is only on a 1 year deal....and Ford is going to go to LG
Why would we do that? Because our OT situations are not settled........and money is going to need to go there
I could see them keeping Spain a bit longer..
They have money to spend and he is at worst quality depth if not competing to start..
Totally speculating here but could be resign for 3 years say $12 Mil with $6Mil guaranteed?
His market was not strong last year...
Long would be ( long) gone in this scenario though..
-
Take the Dolphins and the points boys..
-
I think Beane will make a trade before the deadline.
Whilst it would be a wet dream to land Diggs or Evans, I’ll go something a little more modest ...
A 4th for Mohamed Sanu..
He is under contract through 2020 at $6.5Mil..

Don't these analysts know better than to pick the Bills to do anything good before we're at least over the 6 win mark?
Doesn't matter if we're 5-0, until I see that 6th win while off to a fast start, I'm not convinced.
The Bills defense is great, but with Allen & this offense playing like they have, it'd be a miracle to get to the AFC Championship game.
Thanks Buzz Killington...
Just ride it out for a while... this looks like a pretty open year where a lot of things seem possible...
-
Is the NFC really much better?
Softest year for while...

Exactly. And green is a free agent and von miller can be cut and only be 8m cap hit.
Still waiting for a good argument.
The good arguments are in the other 5 AJ Green threads..

I actually was under the impression that Motor didn’t miss many ( if any?) games in college..
Yeah.. he did a hamstring ... it happens .., not sure we can read much into that at this stage..

But I think the concern of the op is durability. Those are tough yards Gore is getting, and it is not reasonable to expect it for a full season. Yes, he may do it, but it's not reasonable to assume he will. Unless Singletary gets back, it's a worry.
You could say the same about injuries at several positions though..
As has been mentioned, Gore hasn’t been seriously injured in several years...
I was also under the impression that Singletary is back the next game... is that still in question?
-
I think they will be ok at RB this season with Motor back..
Gore has been fine and has been pretty injury free the past 7-8 years.. he is proving age is just a number..
Id probably look to draft another RB on Day 3 at the next draft..

Just now, the skycap said:
Metcalf has been that deep threat for Seahawks the Bills are definitely needing now
It appears that they thought Foster was going to have that role...
Maybe he can still get there after this latest injury..

Fortunately, it’s not THAT common. This is.....”special”. ?
It’s way too soon to make this call. Five games in an NFL career, playing in a completely new group at OL, I’d say it’s too early to judge.
Its a very high bar we have here..
Not only do they have to hit on every draft pick ( seems they are hitting on several), they have to all come in and play lights out immediately ..

I won’t fault the Ford pick at 38...
Look at all the “experts” on nfl.com final mock drafts...
They all had him going in the first round..

The Bills Projected Salary Cap and Draft Capital in 2020
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
A surplus of starting Guards is not necessarily a bad thing... Morse has issues as we know, and if anything happens to him you move Feliciano to C and suddenly no more surplus of Guards..
Let’s see how much Spain costs... at the moment they are paying Long double to be his backup..
