Stank_Nasty Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 if he even comes close to his 16 and 17 form this is STEALING. wow

ndirish1978 Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Beane isn't playing with the OL - we're signing upside players with a decent floor and still appear to be interviewing every decent OL prospect in the draft. I dunno how many linemen we're carrying into the season, but I'm thinking it's going to wind up being more than we all presume.
Magox Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I am floored that this is the sort of deal he received. I would imagine that he will be playing with a huge chip on his shoulder ready and more motivated about playing good football than any time in his career knowing that there could end up being a big pay day at the end of the season. 2

Logic Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 I am sometimes just bowled over by the fact that certain guys get no interest on the open market. This is one of those times. What the HELL am I missing about Spain's tape from the last few years? $1.75 million? REALLY?! I just don't get it.

Expand I still think Beane is looking at trades. A Bills player/Pick for an established player needed to be dumped by a "cash strapped" team. Could also happen after the draft when teams retool positions vs. cap. I agree the FA picking are slim now.

Expand I agree that Ziggy may not happen. I keep hearing that Gerald McCoy of the Bucs is available for trade, but no one is biting on whatever the Bucs are asking. I can't help but wonder what they want in exchange. McCoy is still a darn good player, and adding him to the roster would REALLY allow Beane some draft flexibility.

McCoy is good, but it would be hard to pass up all of the talent at the DT position. McCoy plays another few years. A drafted DT outlasts that on his first contract, and at a cheaper number too.
