Simon Says Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 While fans were fretting that we might lose Diggs....Beane was watching the WR market set itself . Brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see they got it done! Edit: I bet this creates some salary cap room. Nothing to run out and buy another FA, just breathing room to sign draft class and take care of in season signings. Diggs was off the Spotrac list qhen this was announced. I assume Beane intended this would ear some cap space. Steven Nelson? Jwrry Hughes? On a cheap one year deal? Hughes has been a great guy and I would love to see him help win a Super Bowl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes has been a great guy and I would love to see him help win a Super Bowl Steven Nelson maybe. Jerry Hughes, no. I get the idea of wanting him to be on the team to see a Championship. But you have to think of it this way, it's a lot to ask for him to come back for literal pennies on the dollar. We're not going to pay much for the kind of role he'd have on this team. It's a lot to ask for him to go from being a Starter to a rotational guy seeing minimal snaps behind Miller and Rousseau. It's a lot to ask for him to come back and go from the Defensive Captain for the better part of a decade and unquestioned leader in the DE room to being a guy in the background to King Von. And that's another wrinkle of this. I think the Von move screamed a changing of the guard. They want Von to be the leader in that room. I don't think the team wants the shadow of Jerry Hughes looming over that. And it wouldn't shock me if Von wouldn't want that either.

SCBills Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Schopp and the Bulldog constantly harping on the “go for it” mentality and our window… I’m so sick of hearing about this tbh. Our window is for however long Josh Allen is here. “But what about it Von and Diggs decline in a few years… ok, and? Miller has an out after 3 years. We’ll see how Diggs is structured. Enough… KC isn’t closing their window this year to reset because they traded Tyreek Hill,.. it’s simply asset re-allocation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but there is a special window in which your QB's money hasn't fully kicked in. That is what rhey are talking about. The time when you can go crazy just to get the best possible outcome. After that you will need to rely on drafting well. Edited April 6, 2022 by TBBills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in Chicago Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 1 hour ago, DrDawkinstein said: Stats rarely tell the whole story. Especially for a TE who is part of an offense loaded with WR talent. Unlike guys like Kittle, Waller, Andrews, Pitts, etc who are their QBs #1 option. The way Knox played last year was like a top-5 TE. If he keeps it up, he's a top-5 TE, even with those stats. We'll see what the OC change to Dorsey who lived and died by his TEs does for him. I'm also more confident with Knox than some others that he'd give the Bills the Milano/Dawkins/White type of discount. He'll get paid but it will be a fair team deal. I agree with most of this but I doubt the number of targets will go up due to the addition of Howard, Allen starting to throw to Singletary, (hopefully) emergence of Davis and (presumably) the addition of a fast rookie. We should be comfortable with the fact that we won't ever have a "top 5" TE as defined by yards and TDs. And in a balanced offense with gobs of receiving talent, that is perfectly fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 7 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: When I first saw this I thought is was going to be a stat Cowherd showed today. The Bill’s five highest paid players are: QB, Edge, WR, CB and LT. ALL of the key positions. The Patriots five highest paid players are a LB (Judon - a good player), then a couple TE’s and a couple so-so WR’s. Which team do you think has better managed their salary cap in today’s game? Hats off to Beane & company! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also brought up by Schrager in the GMFB clip SlimShady'sSpaceForce shared as well, so it was probably fresh in T. Brown's mind after getting his GMFB fix this morning.

I have a feeling in 2-3 years his deal is going to look like a drop in the bucket related to cap hit. From everything I have seen the cap should have been around 260m this year pre-covid. They expect them to get to that point by next season plus the new TV contracts could push it closer to 300m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe a few years ago we had trouble doing so. I would love to see Hughes come back. Dude can still play. Wouldn’t need to be a 2 or 3 down guy, just pin the ears back and rush the passer. Would love to see him end his career here with some nice hardware! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, Limeaid said: Beane unlike predecessors does not need to take his advice if he does not want it. Beane: Jim stop raising your hand and please go sit in corner until I call you. Ryan Fitzpatrick called it best in Fred Jackson's roast when he called him a Jauron but he used his first name instead. Nope. Jim’s sole function is cap management, Beane knows it, and is reliant upon it. Jim wouldn’t be there if his role was to simply sit in the corner if Beane doesn’t want his help. Beane not only wants that help, he needs that help. Edited April 6, 2022 by K-9 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
