His worst roster decision was also keeping Trent Murphy as a 3rd-4th DE at nealy $10 million cap hit in 2020. Paid Trent+Star as much per year as Von. Hopefully Beane has learned from his mistakes of overpaying for non difference makers. Having a SB ready roster to attract talent should help this as well. Quote

I like the guy, but Emmanuel Sanders at 6M for 42 catches, don't love it. And he was hurt down the stretch.... Quote
Beast Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 Nothing to back this claim up but it just seemed to me that Star played football because he had to, not because he wanted to. 1 Quote

I think it’s common knowledge that this is legitimately the case isn’t it? I feel like he may have even said so. At any rate it’s been a known thing with him for a long time. Quote
Rc2catch Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I always thought star was brought here as a locker room guy and I didn’t mind them paying him over value to “change the culture of the locker room” if that’s what he did. But it’s been time to move on. The opt out delayed it and probably really messed up Beanes long term plans moving around money for future cap projections and extensions etc etc 1 Quote
wakingfane Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 Best part is hopefully this is the last day we have to hear Tasker absolutely butcher his last name on One Bills Live Quote

How about the Eric Wood extension? Extension of player under contract though. I'm torn between Trent Murphy and AJ McCarron. Murphy: signed for the pass-rush chops he demo'd before he tore his ACL, became a run defender who was a liability in pass pro, and had a huge cap hit in 2020 for being a healthy inactive 6 regular season and 2 of 3 playoff games. McCarron: signed to be our "bridge" QB and let Allen sit and learn. Apparently could not grasp the offense and wound up being traded right before the season, leaving us with a horrible QB room of Peterman and Allen. Must give Honorable Mention to Vontae Davis (we've come a Long Way) Quote

He did say that he didn't love football, he wanted to play football in order to take care of his family (said in an article on him pre-draft) but I'm told that is being misinterpreted and quoted out of context.

That was exxagerated we didn't that much - was just a dumb narrative people pushed around as to why we couldn't tackle well. Quote
Virgil Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I thought there was zero savings in releasing Star? Quote
