This is a strong DL draft . I would pay Richie , cut Kyle Williams for enough cap space (hate to do it) draft a DT.
After Cyril and Kujo miss , the OL draft is no sure thing.
BBF is just joking, but I wonder about Brady's pay
In 2016 Brady is #20 on the list of highest paid QBs ?

What prevents teams from going over the Salary Cap?
The short answer is that teams can’t because the league approves all contracts and would not approve a contract that would result in a team going over the Cap.
There have been a couple of instances where teams were discovered to have agreed to payments to players that circumvented the Salary Cap. The Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers were penalized draft picks and fined for agreeing to undisclosed, non-contract payments to players.

Unless the Bills can sign a good LG , FA for less they have to at least match what he can get open market.
He earned that for being under paid last season.
When a team lets a player reach free agency this is the risk. If he walks hope they can sign a FA for a price they can afford or draft a LG.
Imagine if Taylor has a very good season
Were the last 2 games of the season Rex D or Schwartz D ?

If Rex were fired today his guaranteed contract, he could retire in luxury. I would not call that pressure to win.
I hate guaranteed contracts for coaches and players.

4th preseason game is last look at players on the bubble, and a chance for back ups to get some experience.
The problem is paying full price to see that. Cut the ticket price way down , free parking , and food at cost.
