JerseyBills Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Clay may end up being the depth if he signs.No chance. Barnidge is definitely a quality TE but Clay is just overall the better player. That'd be a heck of a pairing though, would make the run game even more dangerous because the D has to respect Clay and Barnidge''s receiving ability. I'm also a big O Leary fan too. He proved he can produce at this level last year, and he only has room to grow. I can see us going 3 TE sets, with # 14 on the outside and # 25 in the backfield , thetc O can get very creative and very favorable match ups
JerseyBills Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 I know I am the minority here, but I don't hate Marrone as much as others. I dont like how he had the holier than thou attitude, but he has also fessed up to being wrong about things... I firmly believe we would have made the playoffs under Marrone had he stayed. That being said, def bad mouth him in order to keep Barn with us lol. I am in the minority with you. I thought he was an above average coach but with that said, I'm much happier where this team is at going into this year, as opposed to still having Saint Doug. We likely don't have Taylor, another player where I'm in the minority , because I believe he has the potential to be a very successful QB. Definitely don't have Richie, who has just been a steal and nothing short of great on and off the field. I also have a gut feeling McD is going to be a heck of a coach. He will hold players accountable like Marrone but players will actually like playing for him. So all in all it worked out for us.
machine gun kelly Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 I'm convinced McD will be a winner. With two 1st round picks he's setting himself up for a franchise QB next year. I wish we could afford Barnidge, but I doubt we have the money for him.

ALF Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 His last contract was DEC 10 2015 Signed a 3 year $12.3 million extension with Cleveland http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/gary-barnidge-4029/ Who knows how high other teams might bid it up or where he wants to go.
BillsFan17 Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 i think they do but then it's a question of how much you want to allocate to the TE position as a wholeIf I recall correctly, they could walk away from Clay next year scot-free.
YoloinOhio Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 If I recall correctly, they could walk away from Clay next year scot-free.i thought they were in for 2 years but I do think the Bills are open to paying for another one ... they were after a couple in FA who were pretty pricy
thebandit27 Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 If I recall correctly, they could walk away from Clay next year scot-free. Nope...they can't gain any cap space until after June 1st 2018, at which time he'd have a dead cap hit of $4.5M.
Fingon Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 i think they do but then it's a question of how much you want to allocate to the TE position as a whole I think you also have to factor in how little the Bills are paying for receivers. Sammy has around a $6 million cap hit this year, and Andre Holmes is something like $2.5 million. IMO, I think they invest some of the money they saved on Robert Woods into the TE position.

BillsFan17 Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 Nope...they can't gain any cap space until after June 1st 2018, at which time he'd have a dead cap hit of $4.5M. My fault, it wouldn't be scot-free, but would be substantially less of a cap hit.

Considering Hughes has had back to back down years. Clay has not been utilized correctly. Not saying the guy is a world beater, but with more competent QB play, I think we see better production out of Clay. I still would love to add Barn' but I don't think it's our biggest hole.
