WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 As a note, I think it's entirely possible to believe that Chip Kelly is a brilliant coach, yet a really bad GM.
starrymessenger Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 As a note, I think it's entirely possible to believe that Chip Kelly is a brilliant coach, yet a really bad GM. No question he's a great college coach and a very bright guy. And I can think of one authoritarian task master who'se done pretty well for himself in our division. I just don't know how far you can go with system trumping talent to the extent he does it. Not really the NFL way. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.
ALF Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 How are there no rumors or updates yet? Its almost noon! CBF He will clear waivers after 24 hrs near 4PM ? then become a FA ,void his last contract.
YoloinOhio Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 He will clear waivers after 24 hrs near 4PM ? then become a FA ,void his last contract. no waivers. He's a vet.
John from Riverside Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 anyone camped out at the airport just in case? That is Yolo's job...check the bushes....
Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 haha nicely done http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/06/12/eagles-nearly-traded-evan-mathis-during-the-draft/ Was almost traded during the draft CBF
YoloinOhio Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 (edited) That is Yolo's job...check the bushes....I'm at Tempo, going to stake out the Chop House later. Lobster appetizers? Edited June 12, 2015 by YoloinOhio
Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Anyone know if McCoy and Mathis got along? I wonder if McCoy could play a part in Mathis coming to Buffalo CBF
atlbillsfan1975 Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 If Whaley and Ryan want him and our cap guys think it can work with Marcel's deal coming up, i am all for it. I am a little wary of signing a soon to be 34 year old guard to anything more then a 3 year deal.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 I have a feeling there may already be a verbal agreement in place with Mario to restructure his deal at the end of this season CBF
Buffalo Barbarian Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 The problem is Dareus. We have to keep him, and to get that deal done, we need money. We are $7 mil under the cap, so cutting Urbick and C. Williams would save an additional $3.5 mil. We usually need about $5 mil in emergency money for injurues, we would be very tight if we cut those two guys, and pay Mathis a decent contract with some guaranteed money. We won't be able to resign Dareus though, and his number will only go up after another top year. we would have an impressive line if we signed him. don't worry they will figure it out, having Mathis instead of a rookie would be huge.
John from Riverside Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 don't worry they will figure it out, having Mathis instead of a rookie would be huge. They love John Miller doe.... I wonder if John coming in and being much better then advertised may have a influence on this decision.......especially if the dollar demands are high. Im good either way.....
Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 The only way I see this happening is if Mathis really, really wants to come to Buffalo and is willing to take a discount. This will likely be his last contract, and I have to believe that there are 4-5 other teams that have the need for Mathis and much more $ to throw around. This would be a luxury acquisition.
boyst Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Does Mathis wait until mini camps and otas are over? Until teams are done with them but before camp? I would if I were him. I don't know if a team wants to give him a workout bonus or not?
aristocrat Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 John can beat richie for the other spot and be a solid depth guy. How has richie looked? I mean the guy hasnt played ball in two years.
Deranged Rhino Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 John can beat richie for the other spot and be a solid depth guy. How has richie looked? I mean the guy hasnt played ball in two years. According to Rex, he's looked great.
Rubes Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 According to Rex, he's looked great. In fact, he used the word "outstanding".
