Dunkirk Donski Posted March 14 Posted March 14 (edited) Does anyone have a link to the “cash to the cap” song Wgr did back in the Marv GM years ? Edited March 14 by Dunkirk Donski Quote
BuffaloBill Posted March 14 Posted March 14 1 hour ago, LabattBlue said: How much cap space do the Bills need for their picks? The common thought is teams need about $12M in space to take care of draft picks and to have some “room” to sign players for in-season needs (injury replacements). 1 Quote
GASabresIUFan Posted March 14 Author Posted March 14 (edited) Don't forget the Bills clear another 10 mill on 6/1 when White is officially released. Has any seen the contract terms (and cap hits) for Hollins and Morrow or the cap hit for Jones? I'm surprised that we haven't seen any numbers on the cap changes for Knox and Dawkins.

4th&long Posted March 14 Posted March 14 (edited) Over the cap today? Didn’t they need to be compliant yesterday? And how did they give Samuel 3 year $30 million deal. Edited March 14 by 4th&long Quote

Maybe they met the requirements, then instantly went back over in preparation for when White's $10 million is freed up! I dunno, I'm an idiot when it comes to these things. 1 Quote

Spotrac and OTC do not have accurate numbers from Dawkins and Knox and any other stuff we don't know about. I will bet that Sameul's 2024 cap hit will be around $6M. Beane has that. 1 Quote
transplantbillsfan Posted March 15 Posted March 15 This thread is irritating because it's obviously not accurate Quote

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted March 15 Posted March 15 Do find one thing interesting as more of the Bills FA are signing with other teams. In past years, seemed like many hoped for a big pay day someplace else, but in the end signed back in Buffalo. Makes me wonder if other years, Beane would tell these guys we're interested in you at $XX salary so if you don't get what you want elsewhere, get back to me. This year did he tell more of them, sorry you're just not in our plans. 1 Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted March 15 Posted March 15 The cap is like the chain gang. 3rd n 1, QB sneak….1st down. MAGIC 10 million in cap space Quote
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 15 Posted March 15 Have we heard anything about how we are managing to get Samuel into the budget? I'm not upset at it, and the numbers look reasonable but I was sure we'd need a release or restructure or extension to fit anyone at this point. Quote

This year did he tell more of them, sorry you're just not in our plans. They still got a number of guys back … and may not be finished yet re-signing people Obviously this is the tightest year for Beane to date…and most of the other teams got a late “windfall “ with the increased cap…so there is more money to throw around this year … Maybe previously loyal guys that have been here a while like Dodson and Jackson get given a “ depth” number that could be a fallback if they don’t get another gig… but both of them got starter money elsewhere … Maybe Neal just got more money from Miami.. No doubt one year only guys like Sherfield and Poona Ford only get “good luck “ on their way out the door … Quote
CaptnCoke11 Posted March 15 Posted March 15 Ok now just wait it out and sign some low cost free agents that don’t count against the comp formula Quote
