If you look at the PFF comments - analytics is something we are actually using. The contracts can easily be gone after one season with little to no cap hit and it will help us in finishing turning over the roster on the offensive side of the ball. It's a great job so far 2 1
Búfalo Blanco Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) There's a new sheriff in the league... and he doesn't give AF... Eat your heart out, Tyrann... Edited March 12, 2019 by Búfalo Blanco 2 1

I haven't seen that yet. Are you saying most of the contracts we've given, could be 1 year deals with little cap hits? If that's they case, wow, on so many levels. One obviously is if the player doesn't work out, you can move on quickly. Second, it means we didn't have to structure contracts in the players favor to get them here.
Magox Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Some people are able to see his clear-eyed, methodical approach to how they're running this organization. Others........

If they dont perform you cut them and move on and replace them the following year with no Dead Cap hit. Unlike the previous organization where if a player underperformed.....oh well. You're S.O.L 2

Beane is careful about who gets the long term deals. Gore didn't. Morse did. Gore is at high risk for not being able to play out a long term deal at a high level, Morse carries a low risk of that. I think Ty Nsekhe is 33. He got a two year deal. 1
CommonCents Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Haven’t seen JW around here in awhile. Shame. 1
MJS Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I think Beane has a couple more big moves up his sleeve, possibly trades. He can't let the off season go by without a big trade, right?
JerseyBills Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Very impressed with the contracts Beane has handed out. Thank you Carolina for grooming him and McD. They're going to be around here a long time. Calculated, intelligent , patience. Had a blueprint and vision 3 yrs ago and let it play out , the league will know the Bills arrived in 2019 1
aristocrat Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 All short term contracts that make the player want to earn another year and not just sit back. Can’t wait for the draft cause that’s where you make your money.

Success Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 If someone can tell me the last time splashy, overpaid signings helped a team win the Lombardi, I’m all ears. This might be one of the most practical, smart FA periods I’ve sent this team have... 5
rayray808 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 OBJ, Bell or Jordan Howard... one of these big names is headed our way - Beane wants fireworks (cue Katy Perry intro)

Oh yeah definitely did good with length on all the contracts, IMO. 3 years for Brown and 4 for Beasley all sound perfectly appropriate.
Mr. WEO Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Just another in a long line of Bills GMs to win the off season... 1
