It’s similar to what they have been doing a lot, going for early outs and eating the cap hit up front. A little surprised they went that route given the current cap situation. 8M cap hit in 21 for a close to elite LB is incredibly good business.

Now that Milano takes a big bite out of the salary cap, will there be enough left to cover another major contract (Allen) plus free agent signings and the draft class. Allen's contract extension will hit the next cap. His base will remain the same. They'll work it so his cap hit won't rise above what it is, but he'll still be able to pocket 10-15M in signing bonus, plus get about 35-40M a year for 6-8 years.

LOL Looks like you are the one that's clueless. You have presented no facts that support your opinion. You posted a video of Milano missing a tackle, as if every player in any NFL history has not missed tackles. What exactly was that supposed to prove? I have watched him for four years. The guy makes plays, much more often than not. Your stats above indicate the Bills defense was vulnerable to tight ends. What a revelation, as if we all did not know that already. You suppose that is due to Milano? How so? The Bills play a base zone coverage scheme. What percentage of this plays was Milano specifically targeted, or even in the field? Do you somehow suppose he was the culprit in all those completions? This is, to put it politely, a ridiculous use of statistics, showing no understanding of the game behind them. Finally, your rant in multiple posts seemed to indicate that by “over paying” Milano the Bills would have to forego signing Williams who you deemed more important. Guess what- not true. the Bills are a better team when Milano in playing and virtually everyone understands that, except you apparently. Yes, you are clueless. 1

Since he started 11? last year, that bonus is "not likely to be earned" and thus would be accounted for in the next season when they presumably have much more money. That way they can add more ramp-up to his year over year which I think is otherwise limited. (LIke you can't pay min one year 20 mill the next.) I was on the fence about him at 11m (11-12 happy whatever they did) but this deal looks really good to me regardless of the bonus structure. 11/16=69% They shifted a half million to next year.

PrimeTime101 Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 So much for ONE source saying he was looking for TOP Dollar!
boater Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 I like the playing time incentive. Maybe he can stay off the injury express.

auburnbillsbacker Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Why does Doug Whaley get no credit for this draft? White, Dawkins, and Milano are studs. He made plenty of mistakes as our GM but I do think he could evaluate college talent.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 This is the exact contract that I estimated 1
Mikie2times Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 This is great news, I know Milano will spend most of the offseason watching tape on Kelce. ☹️ 1

SECRET SQUIRREL Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I want us to trade back and draft Landon Dickerson, let him play guard this year + and move to center when we move on from Morse. He's an absolute mauler and would help out our run game. Also want Shelvin in RD3, need to get our run defense fixed.
Saxum Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 23 hours ago, Big Turk said: GM's must have a VERY good idea that the cap is going to explode over the next 3 years...some have said it could approach or possibly even exceed $300 million in 5 years... Someone speculated on this with Jerry Jones having no issue signing Prescott to that huge contract because in a few years that will be a bargain for QBs based on the cap going up so much. When that happens expect a lot of holdouts from players who feel they are being underpaid even if they restructured getting the money up front.
