Eastport bills Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Wake me up when Beane makes a difference making FA signing. I’m losing my patience with this obsession with cheap useless players. This is a crucial offseason for us. He has failed since the Josh draft and Diggs trade. 1 Quote

Even far worse was resigning Tyler Matakevich, we waste 2 million in cap space for a 31 year old high motor/no talent special teams guy that will never play a down of regular defence. Does anyone remember any amazing special teams play this guy has made in 3 previous years. Only money you spend on special teams is for your kicker/punter and long snapper. Stunning that Tyler will be making more money than our punter/kicker and long snapper along with having a 2.5 dead money count against the cap should the Bills decide to cut him. Do the Bills already know that some undrafted rookie will not outshine him in camp? How about signing some younger guy with better athletic talent that has potential to give you some plays on defence. Maybe go check out the Chiefs cap sheet and see how many impactful players will be making less than the great Matekevich , you can start with Isaih Pacheco at half that amount or Toney at the same amount. Matakevich resigning has Sean's hands written all over it, the undersized high motor/high character guy who takes up a roster spot every Sunday. With all the injuries we had last season, you would think they would want more positional depth. As for Lewis, the two plays I would prefer to forget was costing us the Vikings game which would have won us home field and maybe we would be playing Jaguars and not Cincy who the Bills do not match up well against. Either way these are both two stupid signings, I would rather have 2 younger undrafted free agents with better athletic talent then these two. Quote

Cam Lewis saw the field too much on defense for this to be okay as well. I’d have been happy letting em all go and keeping edmunds. His best years are ahead. 1 Quote
JohnNord Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 I didn’t love this signing… my guess is that they are giving him a second look based on his special teams skills but I don’t think he’s a lock to make the roster. Quote

NewEra Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 Can we close this thread please? Every time I see the thread title, I throw up in my mouth. It’s kinda gross. He’s on the team. We know this. There really isn’t anything to discuss regarding Cam Lewis. We all hope he never has to play another down for the Bills. 3 Quote
Gunsgoodtime Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 This FA has started out really rough, with almost each signing giving me less and less confidence in the upcoming year. I'm not as excited as most signing a backup lineman for another team to 8m per year contract to protect Josh Allen either. It feels like the same BS they been doing on the line and on special teams since they got here. Edmunds loss hurts too Quote

Edmunds loss hurts too Really rough would’ve included not signing one of the better guards on the market to a fair contract. we haven’t made any bad signings of significancez. Matakavich and Cam Lewis don’t get paid enough to be considering bad. WR is a focus, but it’s a terrible WR market and the dominos haven’t begun to fall yet. We’ll get someone. we just haven’t made a splash - in an offseason in which we started 20M OVER the cap. Losing edmunds was a lock in my eyes- as was losing Poyer. Doubtful, but there’s still a chance he returns. I don’t think this has been a bad start- many fans are just losing their minds because Miami got Ramsey and the jets are gonna get Rodgers. Quote
