It sounds like they gave him back up money with potential to be starter money with incentives to me Expand He'll likely get most of the $7.7 million in guaranteed money this year, meaning no dead cap if they cut him in 2020. If he works out, he'll then be on essentially a 1-year $7 million contract in 2020, with no dead cap in 2021.

Beane did a great job filling holes in free agency. Looking like there is a good chance we go defence in round one. I’m fine with that after all these signings. Expand That is definitely a possibility.., he played admirably on the left side instant upgrade at either tackle 1

I'm good with that. Hopefully they grab another receiver and TE in the next two, with a RB thrown in during one of the later rounds. Expand We may start to control both lines of scrimmage consistently if we can get another pass rusher.

If stay put, a DL BPA, Oliver or Wilkins 3 1
Kelly the Dog Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 This guy is very well liked by a lot of people. Very good signing for versatility. Great day for Beane. 3

CaptnCoke11 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Wonder if they plan on putting him at LT and moving Dawkins to LG or RT
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 So far they have added players that they see staying for 2-4 years. I'm waiting for a 1yr contract for someone trying to reestablish value. Ansah or daryl williams fit this profile. If they flame out - not on the hook. If they don't - then we're in the comp pick game in 2020 free agenyc.

That'd leave the big ones as Hughes, Shady (probably not that much if anything in a comp pick game), Lawson, and maybe Jordan Phillips if he continues to produce.

He can start at any non-center spot, and at worst he's the most valuable OL backup in the game.

Probably half the cost of a Daryl Williams signing so if we’re moving in another direction, should be interesting to see what we do with that money. Expand Zingy Ansah is visiting the Bills tomorrow. Signing him would take pretty big bucks I think. Edited March 12, 2019 by FLFan 1
