Offseason Primer Position Group: DL
MAJBobby replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
yeah I hear you in the Value. Both those I used strictly SPOTRAC Market Analysis for both of them as they have taken into account the depressed market due to the COVID Cap stuff. In a normal year I complete agree with your AAV assessments. I understand about Yannick run issues I am less concerned about that because of what I said with the Run Defense philosophical debate on how much facing an offense like we have helps the run defense. His signing for me was pure pressure based and once I saw the projected 15M AAV I was all over it. That was my thinking on that signing. But I also understand your takes. -
Defensive Line – This is an area that needs a lot of help IMO. It was almost like the story of 3 seasons, beginning could not stop the run with anyone, end of the season got better against the run (I think the offense was the major reason why) and then playoffs back to struggling against the run. But the point in the middle of the offense is the reason why I am not as worried about defending the run as others are. It is a philosophical debate that happens every year, but IMO the offense putting up 30 a game (in those games we didn’t struggle against the run) do more in stopping the other teams run than plugging in fat guys to eat up space. If our offense is dictating pace and scoring at the clip they did at the end of the season, teams cannot run and try to keep with us that was evident in play. With all that said though the DL underperformed all season, yes there was flashes but less and less as the season went on. That is kind of where I am at looking at this group. Last think I use all ages that they will be in the next season. I think this is going to be the most in flux position group of the offseason, alot of money spent here with not the same comparable production. Bills UFAs: Trent Murphy, 31 yrs, DE – This is a let walk candidate and a major miss on Beane this offseason, it looks like the right move would have been extend Shaq Lawson (3/30) and replace Trent with him. The Bills chose not to, instead they got an expensive spot player (I think a healthy scratch more than he impacted games). Nothing changed with Murphy, he was still a liability setting the edge (something Shaq did well) and offered very spotty pressure as well. Though I know I mention Shaq by no means am I a Shaq lover either, but he did play the run better than Murphy and offered the same threat in pass rush that Murphy added. So long story short Murphy walks. On Contract DE: Mario Addison, 34 yrs, Cap hit: 10.1M, Savings: 6.1M: Had 30 tackles, 5 sacks, 8 QB hits. Those Sack numbers are his worst in his career since 2013. I do not think that performance justifies the cap hit. That is roughly 2M a sack. He is a good player to have in the rotation for closer to 5M AAV not 10M AAV. At his age he could retire, but I also think there is no trade value with him. Still under contract through 2022. However, Bills built their contract to have the out year after year one, similar to Murphy’s was built. He didn’t look explosive and seemed his one thing that was talked about his sack ability was not on display and he got more than enough snaps to make an impact just didn’t. The DE group has a lot of those type DEs that are good players but nothing that scares anyone. Also has a 800K bonus due on the 5th day of the new year, so I expect a early decision on Addison. Though I also don’t think 800K is prohibitive to pick up and cut later in the offseason. Jerry Hughes, 33 yrs, Cap Hit 9.45M, Savings 7.35M: Jerry had 29 Tackles, 4.5 Sacks, 2 recovered fumbles 11 QB hits. As much as I hate to say this this is the second year with similar production from him. He does get pressure and wins his pass rush rates at a high clip but hasn’t finished really well since 2018. Jerry also hasn’t played the run well either in the last couple years. Final year of his deal, I think there is a 3rd or 4th round trade value on him as well. This specific player is going to be the one off hanging with nostalgia or moving based on production. Reality 4.5 sacks a year from your premier pass rusher isn’t going to cut it. If you think about it 19.5M Cap hit for 9 sacks. Is what you get with Addison and Hughes. I do understand rotation, however I also think a heavy rotation tells me you do not have a Stud. Example if Bills had a Shaq Barrett, how often would he come off the field. Now the performance aspect done, there is the leadership and emotional aspect that comes with Hughes, he is the leader of that DL, So I guess it comes down to how much the Bills value that. A.J. Epenesa, 23 yrs, Cap Hit: 1.33: AJ had 1 sack, 14 tackles 4 hits. He looked like he was a rookie, that went through a weird offseason and didn’t get much work, looked over matched and not strong enough during the season, though did get better. I think the offseason really hurt him to start the season and why he started getting more time later in the season. Still looks small, lost quickness (never had a lot to begin with). I think the Bills need to decide what they want him to become, if he is a base 4-3 end (I think that is where he best fits) then they need him to add weight and become stronger (quickness becomes less an issue). I say that because his pass rush moves he uses are those of a base DE, more power moves than speed moves. I think he will be OK with a real offseason adding power. I am not kidding myself I do not expect 10 plus sacks a year from him. He started setting the edge well later in the season and was more effective against the run than he was in his pass rush and why I think he is your future 4-3 base end. Darryl Johnson, 24 yrs, Cap Hit 789K: I really like Johnson on this team, in terms of Defense he had 14 tackles, 1 Sack and 5 hits. He is a good player on the base end against the Run, he did outplay Murphy when in the game and very similar numbers to AJ. I think with Johnson and Epenesa as the rotation at the Base end position we are ok there, however they do need to up their sack production. He also adds value on Special teams. Looked like he added 2 counters to his pass rush plan but needs to get more effective there. But I have no issue with him on this team as a liability, there could be an upgrade if needed, but I would look elsewhere (mainly the Premier DE on the other side) Bryan Cox Jr (26) and Mike Love (27) - Both signed Futures Deal – Nothing much to say about either being on the PS all year, will come to camp but IMO both are JAGs can add any two names and get he same. I don’t see either on this team long term. On Contract DT: Quinton Jefferson, 28 yrs, Cap Hit 8M: Savings 6.5M: - Performed right like he has his entire career, 23 tackles, 3 sacks and 6 QB hits. So, he performed as he always has, if they bills are happy with that performance then that is what they bought. I personally think he was paid in a structure to be better than he always has been. The Bills balked at going this high for Jordan Phillips who was a much more impactful player in Buffalo. So, I do not think his production warrants an 8M price tag. Just a reminder they balked at that price tag for Phillips coming off a season with 9.5 sacks, 25 tackles and 16 QB hits. Vernon Butler, 27 yrs, Cap Hit 7.818M, Savings: 6.818M – Was completely ineffective with the Bills defense, has 0 Sacks, 18 tackles and 2 QB hits. I am unsure what they thought they were getting with him. His 6-sack year in Carolina was an anomaly compared to career. Maybe he just doesn’t fit the scheme but absent 2019 year he performed like he did very year in Carolina. Just not sure what they thought they were buying here for almost 8M, must correct that mistake. I guess he did play out of position all year and that likely hurt. But to me what I am seeing right now is this years play was his Norm in terms of production. Star Lotulelei, 32 yrs, Cap Hit: 7.6M – First let me say he is NOT going to get cut Opted Out so nothing to go on this year. The Dead cap is prohibitive, is he didn’t opt out then this offseason would be the out year, but he opted out and froze the contract. Now I will say I have been a Star hater since the minute he was overpaid. However, his last year playing he showed up and made me change my mind on him. He is really good at what he does, and the cap hits (still a bit high IMO) are back to where they should be. What SCARES me about Star is Bigger guy, Older, out of football for a year. What is he? And it is that specific reason I am worried about putting all my 1 TECH eggs in the Star basket. But either way he is on the team next year, so just need to have a BU plan in place. Ed Oliver, 23 yrs, Cap Hit: 5.335M – I am sure I am going to catch hell on this, but I think Ed Oliver improved from his rookie year by a lot. The Stats are down, but he also had a tire fire next to him at 1 tech. Heck they even have him playing 1 Tech and that isn’t not his game. He was much more disruptive from the middle this year and did collapse pockets, that is what you want from him. I think this was Eds best year, there was points in the game he was unblockable. If people thought they were getting Aaron Donald I feel for them because there is one Aaron Donald, but he did improve his technique on stacking Doubles and just anchoring. I thought he was one of the Better players if not the best player on the DL this year. I think he will be fine and by the time his extension is due will be talked about as a must re-sign. Harrison Phillips, 25 Cap Hit: 1.14M – Another I am going to likely catch crap for, but he regressed. Multiple healthy scratches when Bills where trying to find anything at DT. This was his chance to grab that DT spot and not let go but instead he was JAG. Now I am not going to come down too hard on him as I am sure he wasn’t fully recovered from his Injury. But I am not going to expect Phillips as part of my log term future I cannot replace, needs to make big strides next year. Justin Zimmer, 28 Cap Hit: 920K – I get hit there was a big play in the NE game, and the hustle on the Taron Pick 6. But other than that JAG. I know people love the underdog story but he is not part of the long term future of the team. Brandin Bryant, 27 - Futures – Blah going to be camp fodder. I don’t post about possible trade TGTs (but No Kahlil Mack is not going to be traded to Buffalo) Possible UFA TGTs (go with my top 4 or top 5) DE: (yes there are more, but I have an age cutoff of normally 28 because I talk impact players) Yannick Ngakoue, 26 Matt Judon, 29 Bud Dupree, 28 Jadeveon Clowney, 28 Solomon Thomas, 26 (prove it deal off injury) DT: Leonard Williams, 27 Sheldon Rankins, 27 Dalvin Thomlinson, 27 Larry Ogunjobi, 27 Ok to the point of what I would do. I would Cut Jefferson, Butler, Addison, Hughes. Saving 26.7M in cap space as well as letting Murphy walk. From there I sign Ngakoue (15M AAV) to get that impact pass rusher Then I shore up the 1Tech (getting ready to move on from Star after this year with Dalvin Thomlinson (9M AAV). I think both at these AAVs are doable in the future years, and I think the market being depressed with a lot of teams in cap issues it is going to be a buyers’ market. I think it is set up to get a good amount of impact players on value contracts (now that said I am sure the players see that as well and many may opt to one-year deals waiting on 2022 market when cap grows again after COVID). Other possibility is to address in the draft, but with were we are picking I don’t see an impact pass rusher making it to where we are at this point. But addressing all in the draft it brings the youth movement, but with that I think Hughes Stays, only way I am cutting him is with a younger player bought via UFA or trade. So with the moves you take that 26.7M and add players younger and more dynamic at a cost of With this type of changes your starters look like this for 2021. Still gonna need to add a rookie DE in the draft somewhere or Cox / Love need to step up. But without any other additions this is what the depth chart looks like. DE – Ngakoue / Love / Cox 3 Tech – Oliver / Phillips / Zimmer 1 Tech – Thomlinson / Star / Bryant DE - Epenesa / Darryl Johnson Can replace Ngakoue or Thomlinson with different players, but with the window open I don’t think you can wait on a Rookie DE (need to get one in UFA IMO) and I don’t think it would be smart to rely on Star as the stud 1 Tech next year either. This position group (probably with OL) is the likely the most interesting position group on the team, as there is a lot of money already spent there that they can get out of, but every time it leaves a hole, and this position group IMO is the one that needs the most work this offseason.

Buffalo Bills Offseason Primer. State of the Bills.
MAJBobby replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
His contract is very tradable, it is not a trade preventable Contract. And if he has value to a team a 3rd to secure that value is not bad, maybe even a 4th. They can get something for the asset instead of out right cutting it. I get the June 1 designation. I dont like using it when planning, as I would want all the dead money in the year I made the choice instead of spreading it out 2 years, that is my thinking on that, and why I stay away from saying June 1st. -

I somewhat disagree on Brown. Look at the Trash WRs all over the league. A team with a New Young QB could really value brown. this year will be chalked up to Injury, but teams will see how reliable he was to Josh before diggs and that is marketable IMO to one of those type of teams. (granted three of them are within our own division). -

Appreciate it. I know some of the position group discussions as I actually lay our what I would do with each can get kind of heated (have in the past anyway) because I tend not to play nostalgia of players living on the past makes teams IMO make some bad decisions when it comes to declining assets. NE has mastered this, always tend to move on from a player maybe a year to early, where as the Bills in the past seem to move on from them years to late. I think there are older tradable assets that can be moved and will talk that in the individual groups, because I then list the replacement plans. -

Yes he was a UDFA. Most likely the 2nd round tender will be used to be honest. Typically get more in depth like that on the positional group breakdowns, But I do think he gets a tender and not a LTD this offseason. -

Any Specific Position group anyone would like me to start with? Pretty slow day today in the defense contracting world and might just knock another out. -

I used the 2021 line, I think you jumped a year Exactly, messed up my timing on actually digging into this, but hey I will take it. Next year they can really mess with my timing until after the SB win and I will be peachy happy. Has he said that? I have not seen that written anywhere. If so I woudnt fault him. -
All as we are not in the offseason. I will continue my offseason primers for the position groups. But before I start those I wanted to write on on the State of the Franchise kind of just setting the ton big picture before getting into each of the position group breakdowns. As you can see I wrote this with the mindset of the unknown of the cap so it is really big picture on were money can be saved and an initial thinking on the UFAs. So it is a bit long, But hope you enjoy, will look at all suggestions before I get into my in depth position Group Primers down the line. (Likely starting next month). Projected Cap Space: 2,649,343 (based on a 175M cap number, cap floor already agreed to) Players Under Contract: 41 As you can see by above Bills will have to be very smart this offseason on Money. There are some places to gain cap space, while not adding a hole, and then of course the cuts. But I will start with the UFAs on how I feel about each. Possible Restructures: Stefon Diggs: - 12.25M cap – 11M of base is guaranteed, making a simple restructure easy convert that 11M base into a signing bonus and allocate over the next 3 years. Will save about 7M next year on cap just doing that without changing anything else. There could be more gained with a restructure and adding years and money. Why Diggs would do this, he doesn’t have any guarantees money in 22-24, so Can dangle the 2022 salary being fully guaranteed to get his number lower in 2021 (similar to the post trade restructure guaranteeing 2021 salary. There are others that can kick the can down the road by converting base salary to bonus like Dawkins and Tre, but I would rather not do that this offseason if at all possible. UFAs: Trent Murphy, 31 DE – Murphy will walk. I do not see Buffalo bring a guy back that was a healthy scratch most of the season and activated based on specific matchups. That you can do with someone on a small deal or rookie contract not someone in the 7M range. Additionally, you are going to see a theme to become less specialized this offseason and moving on from one trick pony type players. I understand the DL Rotation we employ but you cannot even be in the rotation when you are scratched. Darryl Johnson has taken his spot in the rotation, and that is your replacement for the back roster DE rotation. Tyler Kroft, 29 TE – Kroft See above. When you are a healthy scratch most of the season while carrying a 6M+ Cap number you will not be re-singed in the offseason. With Knox coming on late in the season Kroft will walk. TE grouping needs an overhaul and it starts here with letting Kroft walk. John Norman, 34 CB – Too old, too slow to expensive. Bills took a 6M swing here and missed. They need to get at least ONE man CB, likely many, I am fine with Tre White (more Zone than Man guy) But that will work if you have a man guy on the other end. Chiefs exposed our secondary (not all on Secondary the DL shares a lot of blame here, when you are not getting pressure ANY WR can find a hole in a Zone based defense). Just another old expensive player that brings no value. Ty Nsekhe, 36 OT – Too old, time to move on and fill a swing tackle position with the young players Nothing bad on Ty other than this is an age and cap squeeze move. Jon Feliciano, 29 OG – Now this is the first one I have had to think about a lot. He seems like he likes it in Buffalo and loves Allen and the rest of the team, so that might help with the offseason stuff. I think a 3-year 5M AAV contract will be enough to keep him. Probably our best Run Blocking OL. Now here comes the hard part. With Cody Ford coming back, Bates still on roster, Ike Boettger likely back on at least a RFA deal, there can be an argument to save that cap space and move on. I think anything more than 5M AAV and I am moving on. That is right about where his value should be. Brian Winters, 30 OG – Depth OG, cannot pay 3M+ on a depth OG specially in a depressed Cap year. His role needs to be filled by the youth on the team and spent this entire year on the PS. Andre Roberts, 33 ST – Offers Nothing as a WR, strictly a return man, I could see him back on a Veteran Minimum contract, but I think someone with a lot of space is going to overpay his return skills. If I had to choose and I think the Bills will have to choose I take McKenzie over Roberts at this point. McKenzie has juice returning and adds to the offense, so I think I let Roberts walk. Daryl Williams, 29 OT – Here is another hard one, I think I would like him back at about 5-7M AAV, but I also think he will get more than that on the open market. Unlike Norman coming to Buffalo to revitalize and get that last multiyear contract worked for Williams. I am good with Williams coming back at the number that I previously mentioned; However, I think I prefer to go with youth here at this point and I think we have some on the roster and can address in the draft. But I am good ither way with him being resigned or let walk. Matt Barkley, 31 QB – Time to go Matt, this is Josh’s team and time to end the vet in the room, that is Josh. BU will be the winner of Fromm and Webb. Taiwan Jones 33, ST – Not much else to say here than good luck on your next stop, there just is not a need for him anymore. T.J. Yeldon, 28 RB – No Value here moving on. Dean Marlowe 29 SS – Veteran SS/LB/NB I think they would like him back and I do not think there is going to be a major cap increase from his 1.5M to bring him back either. Isaiah McKenzie, 26 WR – McKenzie is a player I do re-sign. He can play the Andre Roberts role returning on ST. Offers a skill set at WR that we do not have with the open field quickness. Went away from his packages in the playoffs and I think you saw the offense struggle because of that. I think a 4-year deal with 2-3M AAV will be enough to keep him here. IMO this will be once of the first players re-signed this offseason. Levi Wallace – RFA, 26 CB – Original Round Tender and will be back, though I really think it is time for him to claim the CB2 or move on, either way provides cheap depth in DB if he cannot secure the starting job. Andre Smith – RFA, 24 ST/LB – Original Round Tender, will likely come back is a ST ace and could help with freeing up some money with the cuts. Bills will have to free money hopefully the cap is higher than the current projected floor. Del’Shawn Phillips, 25 LB – I do not think there is nothing here will be nothing more than the Veteran Minimum, guess could come back on that cheap deal until camp and then cut but I just don’t see anything here and able to move on. Matt Milano (Spotrac Market Value – 13.8M AAV), 26 LB – At 13.8M AAV the decision is easy, move on. I even debate 8-10M and think Bills should move on from anything over 9M. Yes, he makes splash plays, but also plays the easiest LBer position on the field at the Will. I do think the Bills would love to keep him. I just think he is going to outprice what his value is, and this is when good GMs stick to their value. I put Milanos at 6-9M a yar and that is why I am moving on if that price passes 9. These are those decisions that must be made. I am not paying 13M to a Will LBer. This is going to be the interesting one to watch this offseason on where the Bills go. I do think his production at Will can be replaced cheaper. Maybe is INJ history allows Bills to get him more in his true value of below 9M a year. Corey Bojorquez – RFA, 25, P – Part of me says if you do the long-term deal not, in 2 years that contract to production will be one of the better on the team. Something like 5 years with a 1.75M AAV and w are good. Not the other part of me says just go original round tender this year and make sure the consistency is not just a one-year thing, and he does not revert, but at end of day is a punter so 1.75M on a long-term deal does not hurt this team at all, instead provides that stability will on a team Friendly deal. Ike Boettger – RFA, 27 OG – I think he solidified a spot on this team as a swing OG and maybe the replacement to Feliciano (there is something you can do with Felicano if re-signed that I will talk later). I do think you can easily get him under contract for 3 years 9M, so about a 3M AAV, that is a good price for the swing OG, and a real good contract if he takes a starting OG spot. Other option here is obviously the RFA Tender, I think the 2nd round tender is what would be given to him, that should keep him in Buffalo but if someone signs over that tender, I think the Bills would then have a decision is the 2nd round pick more valuable than Ike, I think they would answer that yes, especially once Allen gets paid, Drafting is going to become more vital than already is. Cut/Trade Candidates: John Brown, 31 yrs – Savings 7.9M – I have a feeling I may be in the minority here, but John Brown IMO played his last down as a Bill. The age, INJ History and Cap number all are against him. He could be a contract redo, with adding a year, lowering total number and cap hits (ala Star) essentially a paycut. But with the Diggs trade, Davis performing well in his absence as a rookie, and then Hodgins coming off Red Shirt year I think Brown is the WR that could move on. I do not think he gets outright cut, instead I think that there is value with him, and he could be traded. Look at a Team like JAX, going to get a Rookie QB, would they not toss over a 3rd for Brown to get with Lawrence for a year, he will be their best WR the minute he steps on the field down there. He has a 500K bonus due the 5th day of the new league year. But even that number is not prohibitive if they pick it up then trade him closer to the draft. His contract was set up for this decision point. Lee Smith, 34 – Savings 2.25M – Little torn on this one, played well this year, when called on, seemed to stop the Lee Smith Penalties every game. So, keeping him for another year at 2.25M is fine with me, though this position needs upgraded, and In a tight cap years every savings will count, I do think we can get the same production as Smith offers at a cheaper number. Mitch Morse, 29 – Savings 4.8M – Now this gets into the Feliciano discussion, could use the cap saving this year and re-sign Feliciano I think at around 5M, then you have Feliciano at Center. This one is hard for me because he is good but did get another concussion on what looked like a real mundane play. Either way the Bills Do have to start planning for life after Mitch Morse, and I think that could start this year. I don’t think I move on from him this year UNLESS they absolutely need the space. Mario Addison, 34 – Savings 6.1M – I think this is a paycut candidate, and if he doesn’t accept he will be cut. I did not see enough justification to bring him back at a 10M cap hit. His contract was structured with the Out after this season and I think the Bills take it, instead of repeating their same mistake that they made with Tent Murphy. Jerry Hughes, 33 – Savings 7.3M – To be honest I think there will be trade value here as well, but I put Jerry in this list for one reason and one reason only the cap savings, age, and production. Jerry could easily be up in the restructure area too, lowering his cap number and adding voidable years. But I do think there needs to be a long discussion on Jerry, but if the Bills cut Addison and some of the other bloated contracts on the DL, Hughes could likely say, his production has been good enough to justify next year’s cap number. Quinton Jefferson, 28 – Savings 6.5M – While a good player and still relatively young, can his production be replaced at a smaller cap number (specially with Star coming back maybe, reason I say that is does he want to play again after being off a year, there will not be any savings cutting Star so he is on the team if he wants to play). I think the decision here must be between Butler, Jefferson, and Star. Jefferson will bring some trade value too; however, it is unlikely he is cut this offseason and instead will play on his 8M cap hit final year. Vernon Butler, 27 – Savings 6.8M – Just by looking at the savings number it is the same with Jefferson. I also think there is some trade value here as well, DL is going to be heavy on this list because I think that was the biggest issue with the defense all year was the DL. So there needs to be those discussions, with the 4 listed the savings would be 26.7M in space, and so the question is can the production of this DL be replicated or improved with that space? I think it can.) AJ Klein, 30 – Savings 2.4M – Came on near the end of the year one he found his role in the defense. However, I am not sure that role will justify the 6.4M cap hit next year, IMO he could get cut to free some money for Milano if they want to re-sign Milano. I this this screams an after draft cut if anything, next year is the Real out though so likely could say this coming year. Tyler Matakevich, 29 – Savings 3.5M – Another I think will stick around, his 3.7M cap hit isn’t bad, provides OK depth, and also really good on ST. But again, in a tight cap year I wanted to show all the areas to free space. Jordan Poyer, 29 – Savings 5.875 – I don’t think he gets cut or traded (more likely as there is value there), However the way the contract is structured is with that decision in mind. On the 5th day of the new league here 4.775M of his salary becomes Fully Guaranteed. So, there will be a discussion and a decision on what to do with him, they made the contract in such a way to do that. I am not sure Johnson is ready to take this role, so I don’t see Poyer going anywhere next year. Micah Hyde, 31 – Savings 6.1M – I think Hyde’s play slipped this year, I don’t think he was a good this year as in past years. This could be a surprise move via cut or trade, mor likely might work an extension to lower his number. There is 500K due on the leagues 5th day, but I don’t think that stops them from doing anything if they want to move on from Hyde. But there is a decision on these two safeties that must happen soon with them. I could see a Hyde extension like Poyer adding years and lowering the cap hit. Draft Pick Decisions: Tremaine Edmunds – I am not sure I am extending him at this point. I do think you pick up the 5th year option for 2022. Then let him play this year to see if he earns that long term extension. I think he has done enough (I know there are many that don’t like him) To have his 5th year option picked up and go from there. Josh Allen – To me this is a no brainer, pay him. I think you pick his 5th year option up at the deadline (if you have to) but this is the No one move I think that needs to happen early in the Offseason. Give him that Long Term contract extension and set the cap hits in the future years so Beane knows what he has to play with. I don’t think you wait here, I think this is the FIRST contract you get done so you know the status of your cap in the out years.

I am SO PISSED ABOUT THIS GAME. I could have handled the loss, If we played our game. Instead we get a SCARED coaching display.
