They better re-sign him. If we lose him, we would need a running back in the draft, and I don't see us getting a RB of his caliber in the fifth. jmo

I am sure when he came out in the 5th, no one thought he would be that good either so....

McCoy - $8,875,000
DiMarco - $1,850,000

Tolbert - $695,000
Williams - $600,228

 

They're not going to pay another $4 million this year to a backup RB, no matter how productive he was last season. Take the draft pick, pick someone else to compete with Williams at a cost less than 25% of what MG would be due, and move on...

Good post. I see your point.

 

A question, though: why do people only bring 2nd and 5th round tenders? Is that the rule? Can't you offer, say, a 3rd or 4th round tender?

It's the round you were draft in or a 1st or 2nd rd tender I believe.

Correct

 

1st round Tender

2nd round Tender

Original Tender (3rd round - UDFA)

Nice info, thanks. I didn't know that if you were were UDFA then you could have a 3rd rd tender

I wish I could get out of the mindframe of not caring abut this because playoffs are not happening with Patriots around.

 

2 additional spots to shoot for man.

you cant, its 1, 2, or whatever round after that you correspond to from draft day

If Bills do not match they will get a 5th round pick, because that is where Mike was originally drafted.

 

We didn't get anything for Hogan because he was given the Original Tender (and being a UDFA there is no compensation with that).

I don't know why everyone is so mad. Isn't this the equivalent of getting a Comp Pick basically? :thumbsup:

But not a comp pick?

I think it has to be their Original Pick in that round. and if they don't have a 5th, then it would be a 4th from what I understand.

 

I don't think they can use compensatory picks for RFA tenders

15 Min left to match.... Let him walk.
