Virgil Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I really do think the Bills are going to fill a lot of these cap holes with vets cut like this? Guys you can get cheaper than sub 30's, sign them for 1-3 years while you draft replacements or create other cap space. I would be fine getting him for around 7-10 mil while Edmunds gets 15+ from someone else 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 He's been a top 10 LB for awhile. At age 31, I'd sign him to a 2 year deal at 7M per year. The Bills have options with guys like Vander Esch, Al-Shaair and Kendricks. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I prefer a Germaine Pratt long-term guy. However, Kendricks as a bridge to a guy like Trenton Simpson would work for me as well. However, Kendricks will wind up in NYG, Raiders, or Dallas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephilim17 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Good news for the Bills even if they don't want him: more supply in free agency lowers the cost of other players. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 The other good thing about all these cuts is, it depresses Edmunds worth too as more well seasoned good competition he's up against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Super Fan Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I am fine with the Buffalo Bills signing Eric Kendricks but for no more than 2 years because he is 31 years old in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendricks was not good this season, and the Vikings defense was horrible. He is past his prime. I'd pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bills draft Trenton Simpson and don't start him, I would quite literally lose my mind. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that can easily be done under the cap. The Bills can't do a 20-mill-a-year guy and I think that is what Beane means when he says no Von Miller-level addition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree on your analysis of what Beane said. The Bills don't have to sign a $20 million a year player in order to improve the team, but that doesn't mean that they will be inactive during free agency either. If we could get Pratt for that type of money, then go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could get Pratt for that type of money, then go for it. I feel pretty strongly that LB is a position they are going to add a young vet. I love Campbell and Simpson, but I don't think they wait until the draft to add a QB for their defense. Pratt is by far my favorite option in UFA, followed by guys like Drue Tranquill, Cole Holcomb, Bobby Okereke...all of those guys can replace Tremaine at various price ranges, but won't approach what Tremaine will make because of his prospect shine and perceived upside. If they go and sign a guy like Anthony Walker Jr. or Zach Cunnigham to a 1-year deal, then they are very likely to draft a LB early imo. To me, LB and OL are the two places they will add mid-level guys via UFA. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
