Bills restructure Miler and Allen

[MrEpsYtown]

Aaron Rodgers? We need a backup

[Success]

This is just for working money.  I don't think it means we're signing anyone big.

Allen to RB

Don’t think this is really “for” anyone. 
 

These two moves were always baked into the cake for ‘23. 
 

Now with Edmunds moving on, I think the Bills have 1-2 big moves coming that we otherwise couldn’t have done.  
 

If we restructure anyone else, cut someone or trade Oliver… then I’ll start to throw the eye emoji around.

well we already extended Milano. Settle and Hines took paycuts as well

Nice. Dawkins restructure and Jones extension would free up another 11, which both seem possible.

Hearing the Bills are acquiring Aaron Rogers and trading Allen for 8 first round picks and a wheel of parmesan 

The Packers win that deal you’d still have Allen till he’s 34

So the question is who are they clearing cap for? 

Cam Lewis. Had to make a lot of space for him 

[RichRiderBills]

We had to be under cap by Wednesday. Don't think it means a lot...I mean it was either today or tomorrow. 

 

I think they will make a couple moves but not a big sign of anything huge.

Jones has earned an extension

You do realize they have 31 players that they need to sign right?  Chill

Those won't all count against the cap nly the top 51/53.

It just pushes money down the line in each of their contracts

So what? money is cheaper tomorrow than it is today.

Boom.  He doesn’t do this unless there is a specific reason right?

The specific reason is to get the Bills under the cap with enough room for a handful of depth signings and rookies.

This is an expected administrative move the team needs to make to comply with the Salary cap.  It is something 31 other GMs would do if they were here.  This benefits the players and takes zero negotiating skill to get them to agree to it.   People seem to be repsonding to these moves as if we have $50 million of cap space to sign top end free agents at multiple positions.

Would love to see this.  Good player. Could use the money this year and we have zero DT’s under contract for next year.   
 

Id actually be surprised if this didn’t happen.

Yep. We have to be under the cap by the league year

[OZBILLS]

Does this mean it's just reallocated at another time or do they take pay cuts?

Correct. 

 

To get under the salary cap
