Are there any examples of very successful WRs who are Worthy's height and weight — 165 lb at over 5'11"? I though he was 178 but that 165 number is not sitting well with me...
-
well, most of us want a WR but I wouldn't hate getting a guy with 23.3 sacks in the last 2 years and a player some call the most polished edge rusher in the draft. Now, if we did that, I would expect a trade up, again, for a guy like Legette or someone comparable... We'd lose a lot of draft capital in 2 trade-ups... but is getting the best pass rusher and an explosive receiver worth it? I've seen worse drafts.

USA Today reporting it is. Unreal.

Franchise tag can't be cheap. Projected at $20 million. That should limit their spending rather than extending his deal ala the Bills and making some FA splashes...
-
Yes, it's kinda cold at face value — but he got $20 million guaranteed from his last contract. If that's cold it beats the hell out of the heat I gotta live with.

Who Would You Trade Up For, And How Far Would You Go Up To Get Them?
Nephilim17 replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall
[In my best Chris Rock voice] "Ok, I'll say it, I'll say it! Ann-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-ny rookie wide receiver we take in the first or second round will be better than GABE *****-IN' DA-VIS. That's right I said it. Gabe is a good guy, I will give you that, and he's made a few highlight plays, I'll give you that, but why do we have to pay him like a star? Is it his birthday or something?" -
What realistic Free Agents are on your wishlist for the Bills?
Nephilim17 replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's under contract this 2024 season. Unless a restructure is 100% needed, there's no need for contract talks. -

I wouldn't be against it. He turns 30 in late August so next year he would be 31. I wouldn't go beyond that. The only reason for letting him go (and after investing a 3rd round pick) I can think of is a macro D philosophy shift to more man and Douglas doesn't match up well there. In that case, why not try and trade him for a 4th or 5th? He played as well as you could have hoped for last season for the Bills. -
Takeaways from Beane's Combine pressers
Nephilim17 replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Harty's deal was 9.5 million but for two years. Floyd's was up to $9 million for one year, based on incentives. Vastly different deals. -

People are talking about cutting Douglas? Really? The guy was a turnover machine for us. And he's our most experienced CB. Who do you we sign and for how much after cutting Douglas? I'm not saying keep him for 4 more years, but he's under contract for this year and was our best CB last year. -
Too bad for him, honestly, but the team has to look out for the team. I remember a theory floated here that Beane had some agreement with Hines after some restructure or something so that the Bills wouldn't cut him. Do I remember correctly? $5 million for a back-up RB is insane. Beane did what he had to do.

Nephilim17 replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don't know enough about college prospects but if the brass loves a guy way more than the other options left, say Brian Thomas as an example, I'm good with giving up a fourth and maybe a third to get him. We should have an extra third because of Edmunds, right? -

Greg Cosell likes Mitchell a lot. I trust his opinion. I'd be happy with him to add an explosive element to the Offense. Is Legette's 4.39 2nd time official? If so, he just (re)made millions of dollars his first time lost him.
-
Holy crapy. This is almost as bad as the dating sites where (I'm told, not that there's anything wrong with that) that all the guys lie about their height (every guy claims to be at least 6' even if he's 5'8") and half the women, at least my age, subtract 5 years from their age. Shame, shame, shame...

Question with an example please: If a void year has a $3 million cap hit an the player signs with the same team for $7 million for one year, that player is technically earning $10 million ($3 million void year bonus money plus $7 million new money) for that year, right? But if that player signs with a new team for $10 million, he still gets the $3 million void-year money from his old team plus the new $10 million, right? So he's actually getting $13 million that year instead of just the $10 million. If my understanding is correct, the player is richer if he signs with a new team for the same (or relatively close to the same) money. So I think it's in the player's best financial interest not to "settle" for a new contract with void-year money if another team is going to pay around the same for that new period. Correct?

Officially the Offseason: Tyreek Hill Assaults another woman
Nephilim17 replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I guess we know spring has sprung when Tyreek breaks a three-year-old's arm. Who needs a groundhog when we have this fine young man. -
This is both hilarious and sad. It's like a young adult saying, "I don't believe in gravity." Also an indictment of the athlete-scholarship system where total idiots not only get into a school but often emerge with a university degree.
