Chuck Wagon Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Great move by OBD. Great to be on the side of guys taking less money to stay (similar to Cobb and Green Bay). Hughes might have left $ > 5 mil on the table and we weren't going to be replacing him with anyone better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Earth to Rodak - if Rex didn't think he was going to a big piece of his D, they would not have signed him to this deal. @mikerodak: Hughes played 52% of snaps in Pettine/Rex scheme in 2013. Question is how much he plays in 2015, and if he's worth $9M/year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Looks like the gtd is a bit more that originally reported @JosinaAnderson: Confirming #Bills DE Jerry Hughes has agreed on a 5-yr deal to return to Buffalo. Adding, the guaranteed portion is a little over $22M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Posted in MMQB, this is probably good news! Hughes was at the Bills dinner celebrating the LeSean McCoy deal, with McCoy and team brass, Sunday night. Tempo .....or Mighty Taco?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I ain't gonna lie, I thought his value was going to be in the 10-12$ M a year range. Great signing and value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great signing and value.if I'm piecing the reports together correctly, it looks like Jax may have offered more (don't know if it was per year or gtd) but he chose to stay here. He had 5 additional teams express interest but no reports they were higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Earth to Rodak - if Rex didn't think he was going to a big piece of his D, they would not have signed him to this deal. @mikerodak: Hughes played 52% of snaps in Pettine/Rex scheme in 2013. Question is how much he plays in 2015, and if he's worth $9M/year. Earth to Rodak..... Pettine's scheme is not Rex's scheme. They are similar but different. Rex Ryan is a great defensive mind. If he had no need for Hughes he would have said so. He was clear from day 1 he wanted Hughes back. This is a brilliant move. The strength of this team is its defensive front.... which is without question elite. Keeping that in place is a major move. I'm liking this offseason more with each passing day. Hughes back, Shady on board, cap space to get a TE and a G...... I can't wait for September. Edited March 9, 2015 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
