Expand What kind of money could he be looking for? He will only play towards the end of the regular season and playoffs as a rental. If he is looking for a long term contract then forget it as far as the Bills are concerned. I could only see the Bills being interested for this year only. 1 Quote
wppete Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 If Odell values another Super Bowl ring then sign for the year with the Bills add to his resume and then go get payed somewhere for a big last deal. 1 Quote
TheFunPolice Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 when it comes to OBJ I'm ambivalent. Sure he would help, I guess, especially as an insurance policy for injury. But not at big $$ or long term. That's Gabe's money! Quote

boyst Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 if OBJ signs with the Bills and we get a ring would not he and Miller be the only two players in the NFL with a Super Bowl ring with 3 different teams? That could be something he would consider - not letting Miller be the only 3 ring champion. Quote

vanhalen26 Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 If you were a vet who already had ‘generational money’, is there any other team you’d rather play for if chasing a ring (or another in this case)? 1 Quote
dakrider Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 Bills don't have a bonafide 3rd receiver. OBJ would be a great addition if he can physically run well. Maybe Shakir can step it up, idk. 2 Quote

Expand One thing that I don't thing is being accounted for is that the Bills likely only sign him to finish out this season. He'd come in for depth and chase a ring. With our current cap situation and the guys we have coming up I would be pissed if they gave OBJ any real money for more than a few months. There is a world where OBJ comes in, puts up some numbers, and ends up back with LAR for 2023. On 10/18/2022 at 7:37 PM, TheFunPolice said: when it comes to OBJ I'm ambivalent.

Expand I was with you on the ambivalence until I saw McK lay an egg against KC. I have been pounding the table to get him involved on a more full time basis. Then a clutch drop and the fumble. Ugh. Next please. Right there with you on the contract. Get OBJ in and let him out after the playoffs to go try and get a big pay day. We have Edmunds, Poyer, Oliver, and Davis coming up. I have no interest in taking any money away from those guys for OBJ. Quote

Expand I don't know what he's looking for but he was insulted by LA's offer which implies to me that money is, if not the most important thing, definitely up there. And I can't see Beane paying much for the length of time he'd be here either. 1 Quote
Doc Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 If he thinks any team is offering him anything more than the minimum, he's a fool. Teams will want to see that he's healthy and back to his previous form, after tearing the ACL in the same knee again. The talk of a big contract should be tabled until next season. Quote
HOUSE Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 My gossip is its all a big joke designed to squeeze money out of Brandon Beane. I can hear Von Miller now... Odel wanted to play in Buffalo but the offer was worse then the Rams. Quote

Expand I question his ability to contribute this season coming off that injury, never mind next. That's why I'm hesitant for us to bring him in. I also worry about the media circus that would ensue if we did and it becoming a distraction at the worst possible time to have one late in the year. Quote
Beach Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 i didnt want OBJ ,but i dont want the Chiefs to have him, so i guess now i want him so they cant have him, makes sense? Quote
Scott7975 Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 I would want him on a cheap rest of the year deal. Big contract at this point, no thanks. No idea how his knee is going to hold up or if he is anywhere near what he was before. Quote
