thebandit27 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 The only people that care about "average" are the agents. It's all about the guaranteed cash and if I understand it correctly, Dareus will receive the most guaranteed cash of any D lineman in history. Nice. GO BILLS!!! More or less correct as I understand it...the yearly average pretty much serves as a starting point for agents and GMs. As in, the GM calls the agent and says "what's the number?", and the agent responds "it's 16, are we talking?"

YoloinOhio Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Are all sources involved ok with this signing or did DW go #rogue on this too? Someone check on football ops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Let's hope this doesn't become necessary, but you know Whaley will if he feels it's required. @spotrac @TyDunne Kyle Williams becomes a potential cap casualty now for 2016. A March release would clear $5M in needed cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Are all sources involved ok with this signing or did DW go #rogue on this too? Someone check on football ops! Lets hope, this time round, the proper people in football ops were informed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4BillsintheBurgh Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Who's next? Bradham, Gilmore, or Glenn? I don't know if the team and agent can determine common ground on the value of these guys until after the season. Seems like MD's value was agreed upon so we were able to get that done first.

The Big Cat Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Boom! Now I hope he does not go the way of Haynesworth...I feel like he has a personality that could go that direction. Here's to him being dominant for years to come!!! Way to get it done OBD!!! Be interesting to see what is 100% guaranteed and what is guaranteed against injury. I have to believe Whaley left himself some outs with his history. There's no chance of that. Dareus has surely had some issues, but they are mostly maturity-related. Haynesworth is simply a jerk - both before and after he signed his contract. I think he can be lazy at times, he had issues with that early in his career. I hope those issues don't rear their ugly heads now that he has a large contract with 60 mil. guaranteed. I think he has some good leaders in the locker room to keep him motivated though! Albert Haynesworth's situation has become a meme for big men who get paid. And yet, if his post from earlier this year is to be believed, it's entirely inaccurate: http://www.theplayerstribune.com/albert-haynesworth-letter-to-my-younger-self/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forward Progress Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I am so happy!! This is the biggest move of a pretty active off-season. I thought his deal would be closer to Suh's than this, which doesn't ruin our cap situation going forward. FP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Really, I thought that Tarpley showed well vs Detroit. If there's one place Whaley's talent evaluation is probably sound, it's in spotting emerging LB talent. They won't necessarily look great off the starting line, and they don't have to - the idea is to keep bringing 'em in and letting them play ST, have them play well enough to fill in for an injury if needed.
