He could have done that last year and didn't so im not expecting that to be the case this time either
Being an old guy, I still remember who the Gints had playing QB in Wide Right, Very happy with Keenum in the Qb Room, He also has a history with Diggs.

The Remaining Cap Tickets I see.
Stef Diggs (Extension) - Can save at least 10M with a good structure
Tre White - Base to Bonus Conversion (can save 7M min) (I would put this one as my last resort though because of the INJ)
Edmunds - (Extension) - Can save probably 6-8M with good structure, (Trade) saves 12.7M
Poyer - (Extension) - probably saves around 5M on a good structure
Lotulelei - (Post June 1 Cut) 4.1M, (Cut) 1.5M, (Trade) 4.0M, (trade post june 1) 6.6M (this might be the plan get to June 1 and trade him for nothing to get max savings
All Total roughly can clear 28-35M pretty easily.
Diggs is going to cost more, esp with the insane contract Adams just got.
Edmunds is on his 5th year "bargain" first round option, he will want a long term extension, which I'm not seeing a lot of the board would be happy with, He is supposedly the defensive signal caller, so trade comes with risk.
Matakevich is JAG, and probably can be replaced, but he's also a backup LB, and Milano has been prone to injury.

There is just something about Fournette I dont like. He should be on that list if I acknowledge my Bias against him. And I can never put my finger on it, but I just do not like him.
Perhaps his affiliation with TB12 enters into the thought process.

I think one will be a vet. But they will, by necessity, have to be very cheap. I wouldn't be totally amazed if Matt Barkley ends up back.
I don't think Fitz, considering the money he's made, and coming off a serious injury, is going to want to play anywhere for Vet minimum. He might have to shave, but I suspect with his intelligence, he might become a first rate TV analyst, or an eventual GM like Elway or Lynch

Yeah, other teams have more elite players We have 8-9 good players, one of which is HoF and still playing well. He dominated the playoffs
In the playoffs, Miller had Aaron Donald tying up 2 sometimes 3 blockers, we don't have an Aaron Donald.

People forget that Bruce [GOAT Bills defender] played until he was 40.
Miller - Turns 33 next Friday 150 g 116 AV 115.5 sk 27 FF
Bruce - played 8 seasons from Age 33 on.
279 g 229 AV 200 sk 43 ff
6 yrs 14.25 sacks per year gets him to 201

Mike Shula is considered one of the guru's of the Erhardt-Perkins system, been involved since the very early days.

Cinci is the new model. Their top three WR's caught 222 balls for 3374 yards. our top 3 caught 227 for 2544. Bills need to feel the need for speed.
Diggs runs a 4.46, Chase a 4.34. Need a threat to take the top off of the defense, Davis can be our "Big" receiver, but still need someone who runs in the low 4.3's to keep defenses honest.

Had heard Allen Robinson was at the Combine with his agent. To me, he makes a lot of sense for this. He's spent his whole career with subpar QB play. Could easily see him saying "get in touch with the Bills so I can play with Josh and have Diggs taking a lot of the heat off me".
After seeing what the rookie wideouts did last year; this guy with 8 years of wear on him is going to want more than ($20MM) franchise WR money; we are cap strapped, and there are some burners in this draft class. Is he any better than Gabe Davis as our #2?

Many Long Years ago, isn't this what the "WFT" did with Bobby Mitchell? turned a decent running back into a hall of fame receiver?

what an awesome consolation prize.
Considering we lost to the last place team, which forced us to play at KC instead of the OP.

Let's wait and see if Peterson is even charged, let alone convicted.
Big Ben seems to be widely viewed as a HOFer and the allegations against him were much more serious.
If I was going to bet on it I think both AP and Ben make it, but not in their first year of eligibility.
Ben of course will be in the same class as TB12, so that will give some voters an excuse.

Basically this. In terms of development if Ed Oliver just takes another half step from being a disrupter up front to being a guy that finishes better and Groot takes a step to even being a 7 or 8 sack guy then the front is not far away. They need Tre back near his best and to improve that corner room around him.
On offense that is where the draft well really comes in. Improve the blocking for Josh and commit to getting younger in the pass catching corps.
And then it just comes down to coaching and executing the big moments better. Obviously the 13 seconds comes to mind but the end of the game in Tennessee, the end of the game in Tampa, the end of the home game v New England... the Bills have to play those clutch moments better in 2022.
Oh and get a better punter. Haack sucks.
You forgot, how did we ever lose to the dumpster fire that was the Jags this year, pretty sure that game alone cost us being at home vs. KC in the playoffs.

Isn't Marrone the guy who took several millions of Ralph's money and said Sayonara, having done nothing but quit to qualify for those several millions?

According to SPOTRAC, Webb only makes around $240K on the practice squad, so Asst coach may pay nearly as well.
He has been on an active roster for at least 1 game in each of the last 5 years, not sure if that qualifies him for a player pension or not.
He did make $165k for the one game where he took kneel downs when Mitch had COVID

How come our DL couldn't come up with a play like that.

Improve the QB sneak behind the left tackle, how to not lose in Jacksonville.

So Josh is 16 pounds heavier, at the same height, e.g. thicker, with more muscle mass. Also a bit faster and arguably more explosive. Energy = mass*speed^2.
Josh is as big if not bigger than the linebackers who have to deal with him in the running game, and much bigger than the safeties if he gets to the next level.
Jones always seems to be on the injury report.

First thing I would do with the Giants, regardless of who is hired, is take a deep dive into their team training and medical areas. Every week, the Gints seem to have some key piece that's out of action, and they never seem to return in a timely manner.
"The Giants led the league with players on injured reserve with 23. They are also among the worst in starts missed due to injury with 68." “The string of injuries, especially on offense to players at the skill positions, has been silly,” writes ESPN Giants beat reporter Jordan Raanan. 12/8/21.

[snip] which is why Hyde started returning[snip].
?Why does having our likely defensive MVP this year returning kicks scare the *%#$ out of me. All we need is a headhunting gunner trade 15 yards for laying the wood to arguably our best defender.

People forget we signed Jason Peters as a UDFA and used him as a wedge buster and a blocking Tight End while Mouse McNally converted him into a Hall of Fame Tackle.

I would rather Fitz retire.
Agreed, not sure with the money he's made that he would be up for the grind, but I could see him as a QB coach someday. He sure has made his share of great and not so great plays.

So whats left to do to free up cap?
in The Stadium Wall

Spotrac is saying that Edmunds is currently valued at $13.8MM, His 5th year option is $12.716MM. He is the third highest paid ILB after the oft injured CJ Mosley, and Deon Jones. Seems like a lot to pay for the 61st ranked ILB. ?Trade him, and go after Bobby Wagner?
