Rc2catch Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Whatever the salary it doesn’t totally matter, they’ll sign him long term at some point he’s not getting out of buffalo. He’s been healthy, funny, passionate on the field, and obviously been the best corner in the NFL that nobody knows.

They will simply pick up his 5th year option. They first have to pay Poyer, Phillips and Dawkins at first level and Lawson at 2nd level. If they can lock him up a year early, eat a lot of the contract up front, that'll help them later on down the road. Poyer isn't going to get a massive deal. Phillips won't get more than 8-10 I think 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: Saw this started thinking... 16/yr? 16-17 makes the most sense and he's earned. I won't think twice about it. I just hope we do it before someone else gets more and sets a new precident 1
JerseyBills Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 55 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: We have the cap space. He's obviously a top 5 to 10 shut down CB. Pay him now before the next man up sets the market. Plus, I am waffling between a Singletary jersey or a White jersey for my daughter for Christmas. Would be nice to know which player is here long term. I just can't see a scenario where they let White even test FA. He's going to be a Bill for the next 6+ years. I think it's evident by the marketing and obviously his elite play that Tre is a priority to this team.

Estro Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Right now the top of the CB market is $15.05M per year.......so that's where negotiations will begin. If you get him under contract soon you're looking at 15.5ish M per......if you wait another year, it'll probably be in the $16-17 M per range as more contracts get done.

And yet he is only making 1-2 m now. If you rip up next year and give him 15 you are losing 12-13m which is the difference over five years from 15 to 16-17. The fifth year option will be less than 15. It's tricky business and I agree to lock him up early, but it's likely not saving much money and you actually may have him a year or two less under contract.
iccrewman112 Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 I honestly don’t think Tre would need top dollar to be happy. If I recall correctly all he wanted to do was buy his mom a house, setup his son for life, and build a community center in his hometown. He’s signed for 4 years for 10m currently (average of 2.5m/year). Extend him 6 years (next year plus five). I think 6 years for 65million might do it. A solid signing bonus and good guarantees.

He can't say no, and it's probably a deal in the long run for the bills. Sign right now and it's yours.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Remember it takes two to make a deal. White is a couple years older than his peers playing through his senior year. This may be his last chance at a massive signing bonus. Bills are going to need to make him a silly offer and then hope he takes it. If not they will be forced to use the 5th year option and a franchise tag.
Buffalo Junction Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Realistically.... probably looking at a $75MM 5 year deal. It’ll be in that ballpark. Maybe 5 for $70MM if it gets done early with a solid guaranteed percentage. Tre doesn’t seem like a guy that’ll get lazy after getting paid. He comes across as a dude that’s playing for prestige ... As such, the cash needs to be in-line, but he really wants recognition of his talent.... a solid contract offer says that to him.
Dr.Sack Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 TreDay = Pay Day. 5 years $90,000,000.00. $30,000,000.00 guaranteed. Throw in some bonuses & free coffee to Tim Horton’s & we can revisit in 2025 the year he turns 30. To this day, I still can’t believe that Gronkowski wasn’t suspended 6 games for the cheap shot he put on White his rookie year. Could the Patriots might have some Epstein level dirt on Goodell have anything to do with such a lenient suspension?

frogger Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 I agree with everyone’s take, he should be a Bill for the foreseeable future. however...these are the people (or at the very a part) who let josh Norman leave, hindsight says it was a good decision, but at the time it seemed like he was the best CB. how much do they value CB? They have addressed it with mid round picks, other team’s castaways and an udfa, outside of White. But, he is special and we need to, maybe not this offseason though. Sign Phillips, ext Poyer and get more talent in FA.
