That's great in theory and all plus sentimental with the family thing but not happening. Miami has $13.3 million in cap space. The top 5 DEs: Garrett $25 million Crosby $23.5m Henderickson $21m Williams $21m Miller $20m If they were to pay him $10m so they still have a $3m cushion in case of emergencies he would be tied with Sam Hubbard and Foley Fatukasi for the 19th highest paid. The only AFC teams that could realistically afford him are the Browns, Chiefs and Bengals. The Chiefs could pair him with Karlaftis, their 1st round pick last year, who is entering year two of his rookie deal but then what do they do with this year's 1st round DE selection Anudike-Uzomah? The Brownies have Garrett and his large price tag so adding Bosa would be dedicating a lot of the cap to one position. Plus they traded for Za'Darius Smith and signed him to a 4 year deal that has $10.5 million fully guaranteed this year. As for the Bengals they have the aforementioned Hendrickson who they just signed to an extension that keeps him in Cinci through the 2025 season. On the other side that have Hubbard who is also inked though the 2025 season at an average of $10 million plus. Not to mention they still have Burrow's and Higgins' extensions to get done. The next two teams in cap space are the Colts and Jets.

2010 - That a guy who had one good season in D1 after 2 OK seasons in JUCO, a 7th round pick with terrible route running skills, who after 2 seasons in Buffalo where he dressed for 16 games (only 5 in his second year) and recorded a whopping 12 catches for a 112 yards should be named the starter over former 2nd round pick and cut that season James Hardy.

Wish him the best - he was a class act here. Nice signing for them - he should be penciled in at starter in the slot.

Why would they bring in a guy who was a pro bowl and all pro returner to not play special teams but line him up at WR where he hasn't exactly set the world on fire?

Nathan Peterman is available - could get him on the cheap. He was great with Pittsburgh and has beaten out the likes of TJ Yates, Cardale Jones, AJ McCarron plus has started over Josh Allen and replaced Derek Carr, Trevor Siemian and Justin Fields. Let's rock with Peterman!!!

Based on? Over 4 seasons played in 40 out of 66 possible games, started only 4, caught all of 64 balls for 793 yards, 8.9 avg and a whole 4 TDs? That averages out to 10 games per season, 1 start, 1.6 catches and 19.8 per game and 1 TD a year? McKenzie, who is 2" taller, over the same time frame played in 61 out of 66 possible games, started 25 of them, caught 119 balls for 1137 yards, 9.6 avg, 11 TDs. He's a returner who plays some WR

He is not a WR - he's a returner on par with Keisean Nixon who reset the returner market by signing a 1 year deal for $6 million. The Face of the Franchise - Lil' Dirty isn't going anywhere!!!!

Yeah and I realize he had all of 2 catches in the 4 games he dressed for and all of the other stats I listed too!!

Hey look!!! It's a highlight of the 1 catch he had against the Lions in 2020!! Well then it must be great work by the scouts!! 🤪

This has be an early April Fools joke. Averaged 0.5 catches and 3.25 yards per game last year Over 4 seasons played in 40 out of 66 possible games, started only 4, caught all of 64 balls for 793 yards, 8.9 avg and a whole 4 TDs? That averages out to 10 games per season, 1 start, 1.6 catches and 19.8 yards per games and a whole TD a year? Plus 15 carries for 123 yards and 0 TDs and 9 fumbles? Sign a 5'6" unproductive player for 2 years $13.5 million max with $5 million guaranteed? An average of $6.75 per year? What a waste of resources!!! McKenzie, who is 2" taller, over the same time frame played in 61 out of 66 possible games, started 25 of them, caught 119 balls for 1137 yards, 9.6 avg, 11 TDs. Running 36 times for 160 yards 2 TDs and 2 Fumbles. Not to mention he's in the 2nd year of a 2 year $4.4 million deal - that had only $1.25 million guaranteed. This year has a base of $1.75 million plus workout and roster bonuses worth $467,647 If this signing is real... WOW!! UGH!!!

Anyone have any idea on why the wide difference between the two figures? Could it be that their restructures don't take effect until tomorrow?

I'm confused by this in that Yates is reporting it created roughly $32 million in cap space. Since that tweet the only Bills move was to resign Dodson to a 1 year deal. The NFL network said just a couple of hours ago, when discussing their free agents and the holes they have, that the Bills have just over $7 million in cap space available. Is it what Yates tweeted or what the NFL Network stated?
