Another good but not great player that Beane overpaid and we will be in cap jail down the road because of it.  You just don't give guys like this top money and I'm sure plenty will disagree but it's the big reason why Beane has no young stars on this team.  He is good and maybe worth 6-7 mllion tops of cap space.  The guy has benefited playing in McDermott's soft zones

His ability to play in the box line a LB is why we're and to play the D that we do

Fringe good player,  good but not great and you need guys like this making 5-6 mllion so you can bring in stars.  Beane is heading to another cap jail problem

Big fan of Taron, but he had a rough season last year.  I believe he gave up game winning TDs in 3 games while on single coverage.

So, are you arguing that they shouldn't have extended him, or that the extension is for too much?

Or that the All Pro voters got it wrong?

Or some combination?

Don't get me wrong,  I think he is a very good player but not great and he turns 28 in July,  so maybe 2 more good seasons before he beings to decline and you still have him on the books

You initially said "fringe good player". Now a "very good player"... 😕

Just speculation here, as we don't know what they'll do in the draft, but it seems they are happy to continue with the guys that played big roles when our defense was pretty banged up last year. Which I'm fine with, I just hope there isn't a big drop off, which in theory, there shouldn't be

Ummm I’m saying he had a rough season last year and that’s all I’m saying.

We are broke


In the Ralph Wilson days the Buffalo Bills were always broke because he didn’t want to pay anyone. The Buffalo Bills are a large market franchise now with the television money and new Bills stadium on the way. Think of the Buffalo Bills market as Buffalo /Rochester/Erie/Southern Ontario/Toronto along with transplant out of town Buffalonians my point the Bills aren’t broke the Bills operating like a normal NFL team. The Taron Johnson deal is a good deal for the Buffalo Bills in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Actually, you're saying he had three rough plays last year.

Just curious….how does a stadium that won’t be occupied for almost three years have anything to do with the current status of the Bills as a large market team?

Bernard, Shakir, Cook, Torrence, Kincaid, Benford….you have no idea what you are talking about.

 

And not only is Johnson a very good player, he actually allows the Bills to play a certain defense. 
 

What an awful take by you.
