But he isnt. He's getting #12 money.

Thanks, bandit. I'd say that's a pretty big difference. No? Milano is going to miss 1 in every 6 tackles, where Thompson only misses 1 in 10. I know Beane/McD/someone has said we need to get better at tackling this year. Maybe they wait to see if he improves at all.

I'd be interested in seeing their number of Broken/Missed tackles compared. But not sure if anyone tracks that.

Great point. Hopefully Norman has some advice for Milano on how that worked out. But I'm not sure anyone would ever say "Don't get paid".

I would not go to an 8-figure number. If that is really what he can get, then more power to him and good luck on the next team. I'd see that play out much like an Andy Levitre situation. Go get paid, and never really play well with all the injuries. I wouldnt fault him for going for that money, and I wouldnt fault the Bills for letting him walk.

Not at all. I'm thinking more like Trent Murphy money. I'd give him a 3 year extension, $21M-25M total. Those $14M/yr projections are INSANE. If that is anywhere close to reality we have to let him walk. He is a system LB who has played well in Buffalo and for McD. Hopefully he realizes how lucky he got as a 5th round pick.

$12-13M?!?!? Oh helllllll no I'd give him Trent Murphy money though. 3 year extension/$21M

Agree that Milano makes the most sense to be next. Especially now that he knows he'll be playing for McD and in McD's scheme through his next contract. Tre next year, and then Beane right after as a reward.

That can come in another year, or even two. Dont get me wrong, would love to have him re-signed asap. It's just not pressing, and Tre may not be ready to re-sign right now anyways. It really only benefits him to wait.

@Kirby Jackson, one month ago.

Does this security guard have a second job at a carnival?

Yeah, that "letter" does not speak well to Florida State academics. To/Too...

What a dumbass.

He may be the 5th highest paid RIGHT NOW. But in another year he'll probably be closer to 7-10th, and halfway through his deal he'll be right in the middle of the pack. GREAT DEAL for both team and player.

Called it in the McDermott thread!!

He was due $1M this year. So 5 years $61M 61/5=12.2

LOVE IT! LETS GO!

Well, yeah, if the coaches arent going to worry about the kids' health, they have to worry about it themselves. And he isnt trying to overstep and speak for team mates, only for himself. So what?

I look forward to the long list of complaints in the "Yeah, but" threads that will be here after we win a Super Bowl.

While probably not the worst coach to ever be on Hard Knocks, the biggest on-screen dud that I can remember was Joe Philbin with the Dolphins. I remember watching the first episode that season and saying "We're gonna stomp these guys twice a year", and sure enough... Nice guy, tragic what happened with his son, but it was immediately evident he wouldnt be able to lead a room full of today's players. I think Lynn is subdued and therefore boring on TV, but he's a little more respected by the players.

A side thought: I'd bet this extension only helps with negotiating all the high-profile player extensions we have coming up. White, Dawkins, and especially Milano can see the coach who is going to be here through their next contract, and it's someone they actually want to play for.
