Whoah….

[Bills Juggernaut]

Wow. Has to be making room for big signing. Leaves big hole on oline.

I heard Cody Ford went to Right Guard college this past month....

[Brandon]

I don't necessarily like that one.  He's not the greatest player in the world,  but he's decent.  Regardless,  I think this means we can definitely expect significant investment in the OG spot this off-season. 

[TheBeaneBandit]

Very interesting.....

[MrEpsYtown]

I am actually not surprised here. I think he could come back as a backup G/T. I would think they would be pursuing Austin Corbett. It makes a ton sense with Kromer here. James Daniels and Conor Williams are super high RAS guys who would fit as well. All three young and hungry guys.

Things getting real now

Was. Not. Expecting. That.

 

Wonder if Kromer feels he can make something of Ford; he must, to part with Williams at this point.

 

But....I did say that I did not think he was a guy to take a pay cut, he would say "give me a cut cut"

 

Bills save $6.3M and take on $3.6M dead cap

Good. $8 million per year made him the 12th highest paid guard in the league. He was decent down the stretch but no way is he worth that money.

I wonder if the new Oline coach is having a lot of say to the recent releases.

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

I think it was bound to happen, can't pay tackle money to him to play guard. When is Beasley move made? methinks it's coming soon

The Spencer Brown/Ryan Bates effect

Has a large cap figure for average Guard. Probably have a replacement lined up? 

[CapeBreton]

I never understood the big contract he got last year, he was solid in 2020 for practically no money. Then gets paid big time for a year and then released. I was expecting a re-structure so this is interesting.

Williams has $3.6M dead cap if he does not return

You don’t do this unless your planning to make a decent sized signing IMO. 

[KingBoots8]

Wow, that’s a shock. Hope he comes back on a more friendly contract, or he goes to the NFC. Definitely didn’t think we would shake the OL up after the end of last year

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

I thought a Williams has to be on the roster 24/7/365? 🤔

EDIT: On second thought, just send the conditional draft pick penalty to New England, and release him. 🙁
