JM2009 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 So use to it that its not even a big deal.. The weather is gorgeous here and work is done for the day... I know it. I should be too, but it still disappoints me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 This makes a ton of sense. It also makes a ton of sense that he shops around too. Football is an awful business so you should find the best balance of money and winning.Totally agree and in his position I would do the same thing. I'd probably visit someone other than Baltimore to drive the price up (SF maybe). He can always tell the Bills, if that's where he wants to be, "you can have the chance to match."

John from Riverside Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I would overpay to get this done Which is the philosophy the bills appear to be trying to get away from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I know it. I should be too, but it still disappoints me. I hear ya man... Who knows.. maybe we still get him like we did with Hodges.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) I'm guessing the bills are writing in a lot of performance based incentives instead of a flat out signing bonus.That makes sense, I was just trying to absorb most of the $ this year. In this case, if I were the Bills, I probably wouldn't blink at a couple million to get the deal done. This all assumes a short-term deal. The space is there and they won't be left hanging if it doesn't work out. Edited June 7, 2017 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KellyToughII Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 165 followers but fwiw @bud_rocks Maclin contract fell apart on guaranteed $ the #Bills were firm on a partial deal with incentives of games played & performance bonuses! If true I am fine with this. This front office is not going to mess around on contracts. And if reports are he wanted 7 mill per, bye Felecia.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Chris brown calls mike garafolo's report of bills and maclin being hung up on salary "speculation" and says take it for what it's worth. @ChrisBrownBills NFL's Mike Garofalo with latest on Maclin along with some speculation.

Gunsgoodtime Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Which is the philosophy the bills appear to be trying to get away from. The problem with that is not many players just want to come Buffalo, they have the longest playoff drought in three Nfl, along with the cold as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Ravens will find a way. Flacco will recon or someone else. Cut somebody. There is always a way.Yeah, money can always be found and $7M is perfectly reasonable for Maclin. I was hoping for $5M or so but $7M isn't an issue. My guess is that he wants to be with the Bills because of his relationships there. If they make the numbers work he will be there. I'd say they are still the favorites but not as much as they were 8 hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) That makes sense, I was just trying to absorb most of the $ this year.

The space is there and they won't be left hanging if it doesn't work out. Even for a short term deal I doubt the team wants to throw money at a player just to get them here and not play/perform. Baltimore is going to have a lot of cap next year and they will probably try to back-load a longer contract for him. 3m this year and 9m for the next 2 years. It would basically work out to the same money the bills were offering but he would get it guaranteed instead of incentive based.
