Kirby Jackson Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) 10 hours ago, Heitz said: Connect the dots. Follow the money... ? There’s a lot of reasons to connect Kirksey to the Bills. They have a starting spot open. 2 of his best friends start on the defense. The Bills have a lot of cap space. He doesn’t factor into the comp formula. The Bills interest and Kirksey’s interest shouldn’t be a surprise. Obviously the numbers will have to work but I’d be surprised if the Bills weren’t in on this. Edited March 11, 2020 by Kirby Jackson
YoloinOhio Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 Kirksey’s injury last year was a torn pec so would think he’s recovered and shouldn’t be anything nagging

Kirksey's injury history may prevent a long-term deal around the league. It's a very good fit here for a 1 year deal. I think the injury history could allow for a team friendly 3 year deal. Year 1 carries the guaranteed money. Club Option year 2, club Option year 3. 1
HappyDays Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Ryan Talbot claims the Bills have interest in Kirksey in this podcast. He has had good inside info before.

whatdrought Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I fear we will be less appealing due to not seeing him as a feature backer. He can probably get a chance to be a starting Will somewhere which will put him on the field much more.

Where here in Buffalo he will NOT be that Full Time 3 Down LBer. It will be a hard Sell to him just based on what we have to offer roster wise.

But one could argue he’s going to turn 28 at the beginning of the year (August 31) & maybe he can see that playing on this defense in a role like Zo with his best friends, and having access to the best training and recovery facilities in the league could extend his career. 1 1

I team like the Raiders are going to have top end facilities in that area as well. And can offer the starting Job. Not saying we shouldn't try, I just get the feeling it will be a hard sell

I was expecting him to lose more weight and be third big safety before he retired. 1 1
