Then Edwards was brought in. I'm guessing he wasn't ready to sign up for that and wanted to continue to play the field. We couldn't wait around though and signed Edwards. Maybe he comes back around and we get him later. But with Edwards and Rapp in house now, I'm guessing he gets a better opportunity both financially and in a situation where there's less of a competitive aspect. Though I'd love to have Blackmon, Edwards, and Rapp together. Edited March 20 by BillsFanForever19 Quote

Rapp. Was the Poyer replacement last year and still signed after Poyer signed. If he’s still around after the draft and we don’t draft a safety it’s possible. Or maybe even before the draft.

ColoradoBills Posted March 20 Posted March 20 (edited) 5 hours ago, SoonerBillsFan said: IKR? Nearly 11 million over and the 3rd worst cap shape. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/2025/ 5 hours ago, SoonerBillsFan said: It's just stupid to be over AGAIN before next year gets here. Diggs and Vons contracts are killing us. Currently 2025 is -$9.8M and when Von is let go next spring it results in a $8.5M in cap savings. Diggs contract may get traded. The trading team gets him for $19.5M with no guaranteed money (no dead cap). Whether he's cut or traded he saves another $5.1M pre-June and $18.5M post June. I see a post-June cut. Josh will restructure $20M more and take his hit down to $40M. Beane will be in a much better position next spring and going forward. Edited March 20 by ColoradoBills Quote

Pete Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Id love to sign Blackmon too! Blackmon and Edward could be our new Micah and Poyer. Rapp, Blackmon, and Edward= our secondary, and back 7 would be loaded! Quote

Turbo44 Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Edwards is JAG, more as a Hamlin replacement than a starter I’m thinking. If Hyde doesn’t retire don’t be surprised to see him back cheap. 3 Quote

Ah, I'm so used to Warriorspikes51 answering Buffalofanforever19, that I hallucinated this response ascribed to the other fella. Only, of course, it was so out of character, I should have known. I thought the apocalypse might be happening, but false alarm. 3 Quote

The thing that sucks is they had old bills playoff games on nfl network and Diggs was clearly the best player on the field, maybe even better than Josh a couple years back just plucking off thrown balls like nothing. I wish we had that guy back and then I would not give a rip about what he says because most of the time he has a point. But right now he’s a shell of his old self and it’s time to get some youth to make up for his lack of eliteness now 2 Quote
