OFFICIAL: LB Darron Lee signed to Bills PS

[Hebert19]

Not sure how anybody could complain about this. Low-risk in a position of need and we saw how ugly it got when Milana was out of the lineup

Please tell me you are wrong and we are NOT paying Klein $6M???🤮

 

What is killing me is that Klein has a 6 million dollar cap hit in 2020 but he has a 6.4 million dollar cap hit in 2021 with 4 million in dead cap. I think they will likely pull a Kroft and renegotiate his deal to just above his dead cap hit for one year. But that still means he will be on the roster with 4.5 million yuck

DESPERATE!

I can’t believe I have to follow him again on twitter 

 

You're on Twitter?

Is Klein even a plus on special teams?

Fair question. My personal opinion is yes based on what I know of his playing history, but I’d be lying if I had much to point to recently. Age is certainly catching up to him. 

[C.Biscuit97]

He has been terrible but I’m always fine with giving high picks another shot.

Lee ran a 4.47 40, that's ridiculous for a LB. If he can tackle at all, he's an upgrade from Klein.

He's not the greatest but he'd be a welcomed addition to 1 of our weakest position groups on the roster.

If we have ANY hope at all this year at making a run, Beane needs to do something.

 

He's better than Klein. He's young as hell and he had enough talent to be drafted 20th. Had 94 tackles in 17 and 3 ints in 18. There's gotta be a spot for him.

Klein looks like a liability in coverage and lost is gap fill. Honestly not really sure what Klein brings to the table. So far he has looked like Tarzan and played like Jane. 

Ihr wiener ist sehr Klein!

[Charles Romes]

Maybe he will be a Jerry Hughes type find. Just needs the right environment. 

[gordong]

well the kid can fly so hopefully they can get something out of him...

I am not disagreeing with you. However, Klein signed a 3 year deal for $18M and Lee has been bagging groceries...

[msw2112]

I have no problem with this signing.  I assume it's for short-term and low money.  If he pans out, we have some much-needed depth.  If he doesn't, we move on the to next guy.  We don't know if he will pan out, but we do know that he was a high draft pick, has good speed, has NFL experience and plays linebacker.

[Brennan Huff]

This is a guy I wanted back in August when he came in for a visit. Former 1st round draft pick, still only 26 years old. I don’t ever want to see AJ Klein on the field again. I’d rather see coach Klein out there 

[JoPoy88]

Not too excited about the signing but hey maybe it keeps Klein off the field on defense. He’s...not been good.

AJ Klein can move, it's just too often into the wrong position

I'd like to see him move out of Buffalo.

 

[NewEra]

I’d love to get something out of him but I’m not holding my breath.
