Why? No roll over and we don't have to pay a 1st rounder. I bet we sign one or two decent sized contracts still minimum. 

No way. We have huge deals for Tre and Dawkins to do, and Milano too. 

 

Use the money to lock up one of them.

yes

Logan Ryan still out there. Teams are very wary of signing older CBs. Very much a position you need to draft and develop.

We will have 80 million in space next year before contract restructures etc. Do It next year.

Are you a legitimate Jets fan? If so, what is your take on their FA signings so far?

there will be plenty of money and do you think Dawkins and Milano will get huge deals?

With all of the new defensive lineman brought in, I wonder if they could unload Star’s contract for Gurley? What is the net impact to the salary cap for both teams?

I know about Gurley’s knee problems, but he is still 25 years old and he was still very effective last year. With Singletary, he wouldn’t have to carry as much of a load.

Lol Star even a villain when discussing RBs.

plus  if these  2 players are not yet counted by spotrac
Jefferson   2 years $13.5M  so $6.75 a year

Matakevich  2 years $9M  so  $4.5M a year

 

That looks like $21M  cap space left before draft signing  ,  that's cutting it close before the Bills re-sign key players.

 

 

Not really cutting it that close. 

We will only need like 5 million for our picks.  And I don't want to re up anyone that's your obsession lol

I said wait until next year when we have like 80 million in cap space. 

We have about 10 million to play with still between roughly 5 million for our draft picks and another 5 to keep to cover injury replacements. 

You can sign two decent sized contracts with that.

Interestingly, there are a couple of fullback upgrades available who could come cheaper. Roosevelt Nix just got cut so the Steelers can get the Watt brothers together and pay the fullback Watt 3 million a year. Nix is better than Watt and DiMarco at this point in his career. 
 

Another guy I’ve had my eye on since the draft is Danny Vitale. Finally got a chance to play in Green-bay and was very good. I think he has some Kyle Juszcyk lite type of upside. Highly athletic and can carry the football. 
 

i have love for DiMarco and the leadership he brings to the team. But he seems done to me and these guys are upgrades. Nix has nice special teams upside while Vitale has upside as a receiver. So a modest upgrade opportunity. I think we need to add a receiver like  Higgins from the Browns as well.  
 

 

 

D. Vitale - he's a Diaper Dandy, baby!!

Buffalo Rumblings is saying we’re down to 15m... 

don't think that is correct, it is $32M with matakevich and jefferson left they do not equal $17M. It all depends on the structures

oh

 

 

[H2o]

The compensation they are likely looking for, as well as the cost of his new contract are going to be a hard sell for Jax. I don't think this will end well for them.

Dawkins is a better than average LT in a league with O line woes, so yes. 

 

Milano will get healthy money. 

 

But the huge was aimed at Tre and Dawkins

I wouldn't be upset if they did this but I just don't think it's necessary. 

 

With that said, this would be considered an "all-in" move at this juncture.

 

I just hope it wouldn't be for above $9M a year.

If we give $9,000,000 to Gordon I would immediately be like    I wouldn't give him any more than $5,000,000

Oh *****, if we get him...our offense will look beastly on the paper !

He’s the best RB FA on the market, he’s still a really solid runner, who can catch the ball aswell.
Let’s pray that he ends up here at a reasonable price .?
