Fair enough - but Sammy tried to do the same thing and was criticized. Then people ripped him apart again when he went on IR.
McCoy says "im good to go" in Miami, and we lose. He misses NE and people say he's soft.
Do we want them to play injured? Or get healthy?
This explains it pretty well: http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/marcell-dareus-7718/
Dead money is attributed to up front bonus. That's the number that hits the cap should we trade or cut him.
Notice how its higher than his salary for next year, and its his full salary in 2018? Thats why we basically can't cut him or trade him.
More teams in the playoffs, full series vs. single game.
More needs to break right for the bills to make the playoffs which is the big hurdle. Once you're in you only have to win a couple games and its yours. The Sabres should be in almost every year, but it's almost another season in the playoffs.
Since you have them under contract for 3-5 years depending where they are drafted. I say maybe every other year? If we let TT and EJ walk this year, i would draft 2 this year though. There are exceptions in cases where the cupboard is bare.
But the HUNGER! the feel of the gridiron!
Who want's a cushy TV job that pays 7 figures anyway? When you could play
for the bills... for less money... and probably lose.
good point
i pulled up the list. First - Woof, thats not a great list. 2nd - Woodson age 40? Only has to play half a year, has a shot at playoffs (very remote), and no training camp. Does he have anything left in the tank?
And they need to probably win 3 of the tough games. I don't like our chances against pittsburgh so this games pretty important if the bills want to believe.
