This was my thoughts as well 😅 Ofcourse they're interested if the price is right 

[TOboy]

I think Hicks has played end in a 3-4 for the Bears. I presume this would be another DT for us?
 

He’s had some production for an interior lineman, don’t see the Bears enough to know what he’s got left in the tank.

Bills/Frazier going to roll out a new defense in 2022. 4 DTs in a 6 man front with only 1 CB.

 

I kid, I kid.

[Big Blitz]

Please make this happen

Hell yeah and see ya Star, contract be damned.

per league

 

When a player is released (or retires), the team is relieved of having the pay the player's base salary (P5) and any Roster Bonus that may become due after that, but still will need to account for any Signing or Option Bonus prorations that haven't yet counted against the Salary Cap.

 

Guess this is the $7.7mm everyone says we would have to eat.

Nope. They'd be better off keeping him and not playing him much than they would releasing him. Beane isn't the type of GM to take on 8 million in Dead Cap.

Beane most likely checks in with every player. Only times we don't hear about it is when hes gonna sign them 

[Process]

Not gonna lie.... If we sign Hicks, D. Jones for $7M, and Settle for $5M, and DON'T sign Chandler Jones... I'll be sick

What do you expect, his name is mostly butt!

Buffalo about to zig on the Edmunds trade and zag on trading Oliver with all this DT interest. 

[Rc2catch]

I love this guy. He destroys opposing run offenses. Dalvin cook will be so happy if hicks leaves that division. 

[Freddie's Dead]

Is Suh available?

[ndirish1978]

I'd be so happy if we wound up with a legit Dline again. Please get Jones or Hunter

We will stop the run with DTs....as it should be.

I am pretty sure the Bills are going to make sure that the colts and Pats 1 game never occur again. 

[TOboy]

Maybe the interest in Hicks was prior to the Settle/Jones signings? 
 

Wouldn’t put it past an agent to throw this out there. 

[Malazan]

DTs that can plug up the middle play to the strengths of the others guys. The defense is fairly fast so if you can have 1-2 guys make a big impact in the middle and stop you from getting gashed by runs (on passing downs).. that could make the other guys more effective.

 Check out my DL rotation, girl.

[SCBills]

With Settle, Jones and Oliver, along with cap saboteur Star Lotulelei, this makes zero sense to me. 

[MAJBobby]

Make this happen Designate Star a Jun 1st cut and move on.  Just that easy
