Hey the should of thought about the injury risk for a 34 ur old end

I’m willing to bet you didn’t voice your opinion here that you felt it was a dumb signing because of the injury risk. In fact, I don’t recall anyone saying that…for good reason.

 

Now, is he toast?

 

Probably.

I’m sure he is still in the recovery phase of his comeback. It hasn’t yet been a year since his injury. Von needs to get through this to hopefully be an impact player by the end of the year. 

This. I would see we are still about 4-5 games from seeing him really start to flash here and there. He'll make it back pretty far IMO.

Totally washed. Need to just eat the cap in the off season with all the old guys and reset

He’s a guy with a contract and salary that’s killing us. 

That was a name signing and nothing else, it appears.

At this age , after ACL repair, he might be getting paranoid about going full speed. Let’s give him a few more games , but if he can’t produce, he’s taking up a lot of cap space.

I hated the signing because of his age. You can’t call it the worst signing ever, but you can probably argue it was the riskiest.

 

It was high-risk/high-reward.   Unfortunatelyh we've seen the risk side play out.  

 

But again, at the time we had no proven pass-rushers on the team, so Beane had to resort to the risky signing, or something.  

 

That's on him.

& people wondered why Denver and the rams were willing to let his narcissistic diva ass go?

He's young, almost only 35.  He'll come around eventually.  

 

🙄

 

 

If you think a HOF talent can’t get himself back to relevancy that’s on you.  It’s insane to give the guy 3 weeks and write him off.  If this team was humming right now you’d be saying the same thing “he’ll be good when we need him”.  But we suck all of a sudden and he’s toast

My position's been unchanged since we signed him.  

 

My money says that he's finished as anything but JAG.  

 

But for the money he's getting, there's absolutely no way we get that level of play from him.

Took Tre White almost two years to look back to form after his first injury. Wouldn’t doubt it takes Von until next season to look back to his normal form.

[Yobogoya!]

Bills can't realistically move on from Miller until after next season.

 

Got to hope he can at least get back into the form of a player who can somewhat contribute before then.

At which point he's what? 37? Pass. Injury settlement 

[colin]

We have so much money tied up in old ineffective players on d.  We lose d Jones, a good player but the kind of guy most teams have and you can sign every year in fa, and our entire d goes to mush.

 

Why do we piss away so much on gadget guys (Hines, Harry) and neglect big dts and an NFL wr not named diggs?

[yall]

Would be nice if he and Tre just retired.

Some never come back from it.

And some come back better.  It's only 9 months from his injury.  Will take time to see what happens.

He’s an old man especially for DL. He’ll be pushing 35 + by next season.  How many guys  mid 30’s + are there making an impact at that position in this game. You can count them with a few fingers.

 

He was meant to pay dividends in years 1 and 2 and get us to the the next level.  It turned out to be a bust.

How much longer are the Bills tied up with his contract?

Mario Williams would probably be worse in terms of big money little production.

 

He was good and so is Von, but Von at least helped win the game last year in KC by getting Mahomes out of the pocket and forcing a bad throw.

 

Mario was just..... "i feel like playing this down"

You think this team is going to the playoffs?!🤣  If so, please list out the specific 6 or 7 wins you see on the remaining schedule.
