Unless you see McDermott leaving Milano is going to keep playing 100% of the snaps. I mean he's not even being pushed for snaps. Your right it is. Meaning it will be easier and cheaper to retain.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Just now, MAJBobby said: So looking at the advanced metrics on https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/MilaMa00.htm He missed tackles at a Higher Rate than Thompson and Jones. And had Similar Pass Defense Stats And Alexander I say the same to that agent I said here, that the team less than a year later wants that contract and player off their books. If you boost the practical guarantees and it's more likely he sees years 3/4 of the deal (guaranteed base salaries that trigger a year in advance), i could see it making sense for him to sign. I could also see them rolling with a tweener LB/S in the 2nd round and replacing some of his snaps that way moving forward. Depends too what they think they have on the bench in dodson/joseph. So there are a lot of factors.

Wouldn't these players contracts make him want to at least be in that same area? Van Noy rushes the passer a bit more, but he could theoretically fall in the so called 3-down LBer role. I mean - he had a really positive rookie year i thought. His numbers aren't insane but again... he was a rookie. I'm hopeful for a good jump in year 2. He did have a good rookie year and got better as the season went. So I’m hopeful too. Guess I’m just a prove it kind of person. Yeah being he was the 9th pick we should hope he becomes special.

I also disagree that they’ll try to re-sign Edmunds after 3 seasons, when they have him on a cost-controlled rookie deal for 1-2 seasons beyond that. What they do with Tre White will tell us a lot about how they view optimal extension windows. After watching the the Jordan Doc, I think the move is getting premium players signed early, gets them more money much quicker. It allows the team to bring the cost down during their primes. Edmunds and Allen are the only 2 I would consider this with. For me to do that the both have all pro/ voted in pro bowl quality seasons. I think the Bills are on the come up. Get them to extend a year early. If KC could have signed Mahomes before he won a Superbowl it would have cost way less money.

Anything more and I think I am looking elsewhere to put that money

Guess I’m just a prove it kind of person. Yeah being he was the 9th pick we should hope he becomes special. I just look at guys like Gerald McCoy, Kawann Short, Geno Atkins and their numbers during rookie seasons... its a lot to make a big impact at that position as a rookie. Wilkins and Williams both struggled to make major impact during their rookie seasons more than i felt Oliver did. Then realizing he came from a small school where he was playing nose tackle, and its a lot of change for him moving to 3T. 1 minute ago, Mat68 said: After watching the the Jordan Doc, I think the move is getting premium players signed early, gets them more money much quicker.

I can’t expect him to be fully back in one year because it usually doesn’t happen. I know his coverage on James White was outstanding in the Patriots games. Not an easy assignment for a backer!!

Bring it Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 When you really look at these players it shows that Beane has done a pretty good job considering where he started from!!!

But the point is that players and their agents know this, too. Many players would rather bet on themselves, knowing that the earlier they sign, the less money they ultimately get. Not all players prioritize getting paid sooner over getting paid more. Every player is different.

I honestly think it's more McDermott than Beane but they work well together. I think McDermott is truly running the show.

He's going to be the highest paid player. You could say the same about Jordan though. It only works at the premier player on the team though. Getting Mahomes before Dak signs for 35 to 40 mil is the move. Before Watson re ups. 24 minutes ago, Logic said: Right. But the point is that players and their agents know this, too.

Every player is different. Some will take top 10.b Still a massive pay increase and signing bonus. 2 years at best or 4 years at worst before getting 20 to 25% more isnt smart imo.

McDermott is absolutely setting the culture though!!

There is a STARK difference in how they are structured and such. Also do you think with a Franchise Tag Available Beane would have let Gilmore walk for NOTHING. When he trades the likes of McCarren and Teller Edited April 21, 2020 by MAJBobby

In terms of roster construction I think it's McDermott. Doesn't really matter.

Manther Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 6 hours ago, MAJBobby said: This is a bit hard as a couple are already paid in reality but will list him anyway, the 6-8 I would pay are: 1. Josh Allen (Eventually, 2022). 2. Stefon Diggs (already above 10M) 3. Mitch Morse (Already abov 10M) 4. Dion Dawkins (This year) 5. Ed Oliver (2023) 6. Tremaine Edmunds (2022) 7. Matt Milano (this year) (though I think he doesn't make 10M a year when it is done) 8. Tre White - (Next year) There is you immediate Core IMO The Issue it which one falls off to pay your DE. I think that would be a combination of Hughes and Murphys pay (to pay the new Core DE) and the other DE would be the middle class NFL player Totally agree. Milano could be the odd man out if he over values himself. And, I agree with you that it will end up being about $10 M or less if he sticks with the Bills. And, I think he will. Go Bills!
BuffaloHokie13 Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 1. Josh Allen 2. Tre White 3. Stefon Diggs 4. Tremaine Edmunds 5. Ed Oliver To be honest, that's it right now. I'd let the rest walk and replace them with draft picks/FA.
