Star is a post June 1 cut and we are finally done with him. So your top 4 become Settle, Oliver, Jones and Hicks YES PLEASE 3 Quote
Cheektowaga Chad Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 Hicks would be a fantastic signing 1 Quote
BuffaloRebound Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 He’d definitely give the Front 4 more of an edge and we need to get meaner up there. Quote

Wouldn’t put it past an agent to throw this out there. This is kind of where I'm at. Hicks is a good player. But if you're going to sign and pay Hicks, why would you pay 11.5 million for Jones and Settle? Seems like a fair amount of cap space just for rotational pieces. I wouldn't be opposed to Hicks, but we really need to get help at DE. 4 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Star is a post June 1 cut and we are finally done with him.

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 I remember him being a BEAST a few years ago. Dominant. I don't know that he's still that guy though. Quote

gonzo1105 Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 My thought on all of the DT interest is two fold. 1. I think by getting experienced guys in the middle with proven success it will help the younger defensive ends have one on ones and hopefully became better at their craft 2. I think they are on the fence with Edmunds. They probably feel they haven't given him enough beef up front to flow and be as successful as they like. If they put all of these guys in front of him and he is still average then they have their answer on whether to reup him or not after his 5th year option. 1 1 Quote

Andrew Son Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 With this regime we never sign the guys we’re linked to as “interested in” All the signings come out of the blue. 2 Quote

Virgil Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 I'm really sick of the resources we pump into the defensive line because of this rotation. This is money that should go to strengthen other positions. Pick your 6 guys, pay them, and move on. 1 Quote

But that is what they are doing now. They are picking their guys, paying thm and moving on. Quote
