Bills kicking the tires on Kupp trade with Rams?


Recommended Posts

Though the Rams did play with the idea of paying part of Kupp's 2024 salary, they've now informed potential suitors that this is not an option, according to Russini.

 

The two-time 1,000-yard wideout is scheduled to make $20 million in 2025, including $5 million guaranteed. He's under contract through the 2026 season.

 

Basically they just signed him and Bills will absorb the cost.

Cooper Kupp signed a 3 year , $80,100,000 contract with the Los Angeles Rams, including $20,000,000 signing bonus, $75,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $26,700,000. In 2024, Kupp will earn a base salary of $15,000,000 and a roster bonus of $5,000,000, while carrying a cap hit of $29,780,000 and a dead cap value of $52,040,000.

Not likely Bills will pick him up, give them a pick and then be obligated for two more seasons.

The Rams are going to win the NFC West.  
 

Exploring blowing it up for the Rams ended bc of the results the last 2 weeks.  
 

SF in free fall and vulnerable.  
 

Seattle is a great 9-8 team.  
 

Kyler Murray is playing COD of duty as we speak.

I'm guessing before the Cooper trade?

 

I'd be surprised as well.

 

On the other hand, Muki Hawkins posted we were still in it on Saturday. I don't think he's Adam Schefter or anything. But he is media credentialed with the Bills and at the facility for every Press Conference.

Its one way to push the price up and make the needy teams become more desperate.

Could be.  You saw that with D. Adams when the Bills were "monitoring" the situation.  Jets had to give up a 3rd and ate his whole contract.

Rams aren’t eating any salary now (per Diana Russini) so the Bills would need to free up around $7-$8m for the remainder of this season and then about $20m next season.  I don’t think this one is likely, although the Bills did inquire (I assume pre-Cooper).

We really should be looking on defense! A LBer, Safety or edge rusher. Although Von coming back next week should help that. 

Or a DT

 

with Carter out for minimum 4 game (including KC), Eli Ankou might be our 3rd best DT.  Austin Johnson has been a bum so far.
