 This just isn’t true. 

Should we pay him $15 million for his 6 sacks? Why not pay a younger free agent who produces more? I don't want Clowney, but I'd rather have him than Campbell. I'd rather have Phillips and Lawson back.

For two of the three years. Not last year.

Actually no. Right. 

 

But hey, maybe they surprise me and get Clowney or someone like Addison. 

 

He's a good player but he's on the downswing.  No surprise at his age.  Not worth trading for him to be a 1-year rental.

And yet cap space isn’t a concern whatsoever..... Bills need to make moves for guys like this one with FA approaching....at times I fear McBeane are too conservative.

He’s better than anything this team has at pass rusher..... come on. 

Don’t we say this every offseason when we lose out on a FA/don’t make a trade? 

Shouldn’t you be more angry that your Jets didn’t trade for him? They need him more than the Bills do. That 5th they sent for Osemele last year at this time that was supposed to be so smart might have stung too much to swing again.

Not worth trading a 5th round pick? Lol. Why? 

 

Because he's 34 and won't be getting better, while looking for $15M/year and some good guaranteed money?

Coincidentally, when I took a first glance at this thread, I read it as “Jets trade for Calais... “. :)

So, for all the complaints about $15 million in cap space:   Cut Trent Murphy and use his $9.8 million in savings to pay two-thirds of that hit.   

 

Would anyone say we woundn't be a better team in 2020 by paying that net $5 million more for Calais???...

I would love to have Clowney. As for Phillips/Lawson, it’s questionable whether or not Phillips is a starting caliber player in this league and Shaq is just adequate. Again, Campbell is arguably the best in the league at his position. Incredible run defender and generates a lot of pressure.

Maybe they have an agreement in place for Addison already?

Shaq and Jordan are enigmas. They're just good enough to start and help our team but maybe not elite enough to do anything heroic signing them to a big contracts.

Great. We need pass rush, not run defense.

And yet Cambell had only one more sack than Murphy.
