He “totaled 9.5 sacks with the Baltimore Ravens, proving he has some good football left in the tank. He also posted 39 quarterback pressures and a forced fumble. The most impressive part? He did all of that in 14 games and while playing only 44 percent of defensive snaps…” https://buffalowdown.com/posts/buffalo-bills-rumors-bills-tabbed-landing-spot-justin-houston-01h0nh09agdz Edited May 18, 2023 by BillsFan619 9 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude had another good year last year and made peanuts. I looked few Mos ago, details a smidge fuzzy but it was like 9sacks $5m. Just make it work. Nasty veteran who despite past his prime, knows how to give OCs fits. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) Reportedly we offered Yannick Ngakoue an incentive loaded deal (if ECB and Cover 1 are to be believed) that he turned down. I tend to feel that makes sense given our cap situation and the large amount of finessing we've already done via restructures. I feel like if there were more restructures to be done that Beane was comfortable doing, that he'd have done them by now. DT extensions to free cap space are a popular cap freeing sentiment amongst fans. But Beane has said he won't look to do that until into Training Camp, at the earliest. He wants to see who's looking good, who's interested, and talk to them about numbers first. He may also want to see how Poona Ford looks this year before committing to others. He also said he looked into getting DE's in here post Draft and wasn't able to do it. That's why he claimed Cline and brought in Ray for an extended tryout and decided to sign him. Long story short, I think a move for someone like Houston may have sailed with the signings of Cline and Ray. We currently sit at 9 DE's in Camp, with all 5 of our DE's from last year's 53 returning, Von reportedly on schedule to miss no time (at most a game or two), no cap space with little wiggle room, and 88 of 90 roster spots filled - when Beane said he didn't want to bring 90 to camp. If Houston were to sign here, he'd have to be agreeable to a fully incentive laden deal for league minimum. That seems to be the most we're willing to do. If we're interested in adding a 10th DE at all at this point. Edited May 17, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Would be a nice piece to add to the DE rotation. Esp if Von might not be 100% to start the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 I have wanted this guy for years. Flame away but i had no interest in Miller. Because of salary more than anything Would have preferred Houston. Before he went to Ravens. And he did a nice job there ! We would still have money to sign another like Yannick or whatever. But just imagine lining Miller and Houston up on the same down.
