BuffaloBillsForever

Again for the 3rd time you are not discussing the trade-offs of being flexible (restructuring, cutting players, dead money, present/future implications etc) nor discussing any of the implications with the fluidity of the cap (things like salary inflation). What your posts is are basic observations (very obvious ones) regarding the current cap situation. The observations also read like a Doug Whaley news article from a couple weeks back discussing the same matter.

It's because you do not understand the cap either.

Actually, I have already pointed out to you there are no explanations of trade offs in that post. Not a single post in your history do you discuss trade-offs or ramifications of turning a roster bonus into a signing bonus, or releasing players (dead money) in terms of being flexible nor things like salary inflation in terms of "fluidity". This is because you do not understand the cap.

You are still completely ignorant how being flexible works. You also are completely oblivious how the fluidity of the cap itself works with salary inflation and so forth. You mention those terms yet there is no substance in your understanding of them being applied to the realities and trade-offs teams face regarding being "fluid" and "flexible". You don't understand the cap. Plain and simple.

According to the founder of OverTheCap, agents should be negotiating 20% over market value in this years free agency.

Yeah. The more I am looking into the Glenn scenarios, the more I feel he won't be on the team next year.

If I was Glenn's agent I would advise him that it's in his best interest to hit free agency. The Bills are in a pickle. Glenn can garner more than what the Bills are probably offering him right now and his agent knows it is very unlikely that the Bills can afford to franchise him (all of Marios cap savings is gone in that case). I would be telling him he has all the cards.

Those numbers are not true as you can see in OverTheCaps article on The Real Salary Increases. When there is a large influx of free agents at a certain position the inflation for that position can go beyond the 8% increase in the cap but egregious deals like Suh's don't have as much of impact on the inflation of salaries across the board. I guess it's more of positional cyclical thing. Bad news for Bills is he predicts offensive lineman and CB's should see that inflation for contracts this year (Glenn and Gilmore). One thing that is never talked about is raising the cap every year by 8% is a number that is not going to be sustainable IMO. I believe the NFL is peaking out.

The salary cap goes up as will the salaries each year when players negotiate contracts. That 2.5M in free space remains relative.

Actually it is YOU that doesn't understand restructures. By saying there is no down side is simply not true. You are just like Deranged Rhino that thinks there are no ramifications to being "fluid" or "flexible" with the cap. It's because you don't understand how the cap works. For example by turning Clay's roster bonus into a signing bonus it would turn his 2016 13.5M cap hit to 6M. That's great but you are only deferring the problem when you will have more pressing needs than signing Glenn and Incognito in the coming years and putting INCREDIBLE amount of potential dead money in the timetable when you have to lock up a franchise QB. For example if there is a restructure. From 2017-2019 his cap hit will go from 6.5M to 9M and his dead money would turn into 19.5M, 13.5, 9M and 4.5M respectively. If they don't restructure you take his 13.5M hit in 2016 and his cap hits forward are 6.5M each season and the dead money is 6M, 4M and 2M. The dead money issue IS HUGE considering Clay is a major injury concern who can't put up a healthy year of football. Remember Miami's doctors don't think his knees will make it through this contract. The dead money would have MAJOR ramifications if this is the case. Also take into consideration putting the extra cap hits in the future when you have a franchise QB, Gilmore and Watkins signings. The 2.5M matters a lot. It is not in the best interest of the Bills to restructure Clay's contract.

Kim explains the merging with the other firm for the class action and the job offer in detail to Jimmy through a phone conversation where he is standing outside the church at Marcos funeral.

The tone of a live flute in a concert hall or church.

I thought the same thing with Marco and Jimmy constantly running scams in that bar in season 1.

Hamlin, Hamlin and McGill found out the scope of the class action was larger than they thought after Saul worked out a deal to give it solely to that firm. Hamlin, Hamlin and McGill then sougth after Davis and Main to help them with the case. When Davis was added the more they looked into the case and talked to the people respresented in the class action, they would mention Jimmy McGill. The old people loved him. They wanted Jimmy. For the money at stake in this massive class action it was in the best interest of Davis and Main to offer him a partnership.

It is indeed the guy. Also the Tequila they drank with him was the same bottle Gus Fring brought to Mexico.

You must not of read my posts on Darby when they drafted him. It is what I expected. Remember I had to defend Whaley when 95% of the board was going nuts.

Read my previous post just before yours. That is one example of the ramifications with the Clay ordeal.

No, it will just delay adding to your cap when you have more important signings next year and after with a pending franchise QB contract and your #1 pending CB contract. The best course of action is to just take the hit right now and get it done with. Also, for a player like Clay who has health and longevity concerns (Miami's doctors for one) with his knees, there is major risk in restructuring to a guaranteed signing bonus leaving open millions of potential dead money on the table in future years. There is no free lunch.

Such a long winded post to distract of the fact that you can't find such post to disprove me. You like buzz words that make you think you know the cap but you don't have a clue.

I don't see anything about the fluidity and flexibility of the cap you constantly talk about and the trade-offs or consequences that come with it. Can you bold that for me? I don't see it. It doesn't even have to be that post. Try to find one.

Show me a post where you mention the fluidity and flexibility of the cap and mention the consequences or even trade-offs that come with those moves.

It is completely true. You are not discussing the caveats, trade-offs or consequences of being "fluid" or "flexible" with the cap. They are your favorite buzz words. That post is your opinion on the current cap situation that does not discuss any of the above. That post basically reads as Doug Whaley's talking points that was mentioned in an article a couple weeks back.

Again, it's actually true.

It is true.
