akcash Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Its feels like the Bills (to me) really like an believe in Gabe Davis. I think he's a pretty solid number 2 myself. I'm happy with resigning Ed Oliver and wasn't expecting it. I could see us locking down Gabe Davis too. What y'all think? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBills808 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Maybe  But paying a bunch of above average guys isn't the way imo 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’ll get paid decently by some team next offseason and that it’ll be more than the Bills want to (or reasonably can) pay him. The Bills were already top 3 in cash spending this season prior to the Oliver extension. They’ll likely move up to #2 with that included. Incidentally they only trail the Browns and Ravens now. That’s three of the teams that keep getting connected to Hopkins already spending the most cash now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I really would like us to pay Jones and lock him up. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be opposed, but let's be honest. On the open market he'd be worth far more (money wise) to another team than he would to us. Gabe would easily command 15 per in FA. I don't see the Bills coming even close to matching that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Honestly I actually understand Oliver and why they did it but Gabe Davis is a number 3 receiver masquerading as a number 2 receiver and is not worth the 10-15 million a year he’s going to want. Just goto the draft and get one next year as the receiver group in next years class is terrific. 2 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabstblueribbon Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I think/hope the Oliver deal means we are going WR#1 hunting during next year's draft (if Hopkins falls through). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 8M a year?  Sure.  I wouldn’t pay him more than that- maybe 10, but that’s pushing it.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Why would they do that without knowing what they have in Shakir or Short? Â No. No extension. If they do Beane really needs to be evaluated. 1 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I believe it's already in the works. There have been quite a few times this off-season where Beane mentioned getting Oliver and Davis re-signed in the same sentence. He's done everything but tattoo it across his forehead and yet many still don't believe it.  Getting Oliver extended was step one in the process. That cleared money for the eventual Davis extension. I expect them to make an offer. Now, wether Davis takes it and signs or decides to bet on himself to have a breakout year, stay healthy and see a potential bigger payday in the off-season is another story. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Costa Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) I doubt it from a cap perspective. He’s getting less than 3 million. I could see an extension during the season but not now. They need the little money 💰 they have for Nuk or a FA DE. Definitely in play for Nuk if they want. Edited June 4, 2023 by Paul Costa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterStrategist Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I'd slot him somewhere between Zay Jones and Valdez Scantling. Which would put him in the 8-10m AAV range.  Agree with OP, I'm a Gabe fan. He can't do everything some teams ask their #2 WRs to do, but he is a great downfield WR and young/still ability to improve. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WotAGuy Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I have a feeling Gabe would prefer a warm weather city to play in, along with a hefty contract.  I don’t see him staying around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he continues with the drops then draft his replacement. I think over the next 2 years Diggs & Kincaid will be gobbling up most of the targets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like the odds of either of those scenarios better when you don't have another hole you need to adequately fill.  Ideally, I'd like to see Gabe absolutely ball out this season and get paid (by someone else). Then we move up from the last pick of round 1 to attempt to find our next Diggs. So our core is Diggs, Round 1 future Diggs, and Shorter who by this point has rounded into the Gabe Davis we have today.  Solved. Make it happen BB!
