I know we have some people on here who can't understand the salary cap.............you obviously being one...........but if you add $20M to the available cap space of every team it doesn't alter the Bills buying power relative to the rest of the league.     Salaries would just be higher.

 

It's not that complicated.

 

Keep in mind that the "terrible" cap situation that McBeane claimed to inherit was a team with *only* $30M+ in cap space going into the 2017 offseason.    

 

In a market where the buying power is $20M higher per team..........Beane would be in the exact same position he is now relative to the rest of the league.........it's ridiculous to claim that Beane and the Bills were more adversely affected.  

 

There is no logic to your line of thinking at all.......which is another example of why I mock your screen name. 😉

Sassy!

Love that we have money to sign mediocre talent, but when real players like Mack are available we don’t even bother. Lol 

Your axe is sharp. Careful with that thing.

Or maybe I don't like wasting what little cap we have on special teams only players who can't do much of anything like Tyler Matakevich

 

What else would you do with what little Kumerow got paid? Sign a long snapper? 

[Freak-O]

Cheap, versatile, experienced and someone who obviously fits well in the group. I don’t understand how you can whine about this. He has a part to play and he’s done so well these last two years.

Kumerow and Shaq! I hope we don’t have to get used to this….

Get used to what? Being a super bowl contender? The people in charge know more than we do and they know what they’re doing. By know you’d think people would have more faith in them.

Damn, I better be careful if I ever go back and forth with you. You're too good at this. Kidding. You're one of the posters I respect. Not only because we seem to be on the same page.

My god, can you imagine the furor that this board would have had around keeping Steve Tasker around for 12 seasons?

Look up Steve taker highlights and let me know if matakevich or any of our special teams only players have even one similar highlight.

I mean Siran Neal has a few of them..... Taiwan Jones too although he had fewer this year, he definitely slowed down a bit. Try the Neal play in the Chiefs regular season game this year, or the Jones play in last year's AFCCG. Matakevich doesn't make those plays because he isn't a gunner. Steve Tasker was a gunner. That's like asking why Micah Hyde hasn't caught any touchdowns.

We're almost certainly losing Beasley, and Sanders; maybe losing McKenzie. We retain a 6'4" WR, with reliable hands, who with limited offensive touches has made some good plays, is a good blocking WR (maybe our best?), and became a core special teamer last season, and... people have a problem with this?

Very unused, in terms of passes thrown his way last season, but still a good player.  Good to see he'll be back.

Agreed. Not every signing is going to be a blockbuster. People need to relax.

It’s an off-season tradition that folks forget the Bills need 90 players going into OTAs

I don’t think people have a problem with it, we are just expecting better talent to go along with signings like this. It’s why it’s imperative that Beane has better drafts over the next few years as Josh’s fat contract kicks in. Josh needs to start elevating average talent around him. Look what Brady did for years, I expect Josh to do the same eventually.

What, the Coaching Staff? 

They gave up a huge punt return in that game also

Ok, but the Coaching staff was ultimately the reason for our failure in the last 13 seconds. Outside of everything else that happened, this L was squarely on their shoulders.

Some people just have problems.  There was a commercial during playoffs with advice:

I do not think Josh can help teach his fellow players to act and cheat like your hero could.

[Buffalo Barbarian]

Didn't think he'd be back but glad he is, i still think he can be an effective WRs, just needs more opportunity.

We freed up cap space to resign a special teamer!? We love retreads! How about we take that and apply it to signing a decent O-lineman? Geez!

 

 

Did you just come over from the Bills mafia Facebook page ??

Kumerow’s contract is indeed for the vet minimum of $1.035M.  Notably he is eligible for a discounted cap hit so his hit is only on the books for $895k.

I sure hope IronMaidenBills real name is Eugene

Be Careful with that Ax Eugene has a very nice familiar ring to it
