I can get down with that. He has some juice left I think. I'd prefer a 2 year extension, anything beyond that is uncertain. Give him a slightly bigger salary in return for a shorter deal.
I'd rather go after TJ Yeldon and Tevin Coleman. Both can get you 1,000 yards on the ground and in the air. I'm a RB by committee kind of guy and I think you can find tons of productive backs in FA for cheap. There are exceptions to that rule of course. If a Saquan Barkley or AP type of prospect is there I'd burn our 1st on them without hesitation. Right now Shady has a 9m cap hit, all that money tied up into a RB that has fallen off a cliff. Let's not do that again. I'm an idiot for saying we should sign LeVeon Bell, I don't think we should draft RBs high at all, let someone else do that and we'll sign them for pennies in FA. Give me two #2s and let's pound the ball.
We'll probably be mighty fine with just Allen and Barkley but I would not be upset at all if Anderson stayed on another year. Allen and Barkley are both relatively young and are within that fighting age for men. Could probably just carry 2 QBs.
This guy is the quintessential backup QB to Josh Allen. Barkley is such a good guy too, great attitude and he can play great football. I'm very confident in Terry Pegula and McBeane. Very much trusting the process. GO BILLS!
Bring him back. Allen is still young. Need that experience behind him. Sign him to a 2yr deal and give Barkley a modest bump in salary. Think with Barkley and Allen we got QB locked down tight. Never thought I'd say that.
Why spend so much? I like Bell but not for 20. TJ Yeldon and Tevin Coleman at 4.45M AAV for 9M. Go OL and get Jadeveon Clowney if you can. If Bills stay put and truly do draft BPA a guy like Ed Oliver could be there. Then all a sudden the Bills could have Clowney, Lotulelei, Oliver, Hughes on that DL.
For the amount we're paying Shady we could have Yeldon and Coleman for the same price and they're 6 years younger. Cut Ivory as well. Murphy goes into camp the #3 to compete against a draft pick.
People don't realize what Greedy brings, this guy will shutdown his man and Tre will do the same. Teams would have to target our number 4th and 5th corner. Go OL in FA and draft guys RDS 2-7 to fill any holes left.
Jadeveon Clowney, DE, HOU
Matt Paradis, C, DEN
Ramon Foster, G, PIT
TJ Yeldon, RB, JAC
Tevin Coleman, RB, ATL
Martavis Bryant, WR, OAK (1yr prove it deal)
Don't forget you got Marquise Brown, AJ Brown, Metcalf, Harry, Johnson going ahead of him. First WR will probably come off the board in the mid teens. How many go in the 1st-2nd round? Maybe Campbell can sneak into the late 2nd. Maybe he slips to us RD3?
I'm not an expert but I do consider myself informed. Parris Campbell should go in the 3rd at the earliest and that would be after the combine and all that jazz. I do like him though.
If we stay put give me one of the DTs, either of the top 3 will do. Ed Oliver RD1 followed by Anthony Johnson RD2. The key is we need to sign 3 FA OL otherwise BPA is impossible.
