It's fair for both sides. I like the idea that he will be the backup for 2 years running. Backup QBs do more than thrown the ball when the starter is out. I think what he brings to the table there is worth the little extra $s. Wouldn't mind a rookie to go to the PS if Beane has any leftover 6th rounders. Get the QB room stable with 3 QBs for the next few years.

The contract is going to be re-wrote for these incentives. I'm POSITIVE it won't be the standard LTBE/NLTBE incentives.
-
Come on, the incentive won't be on last year's production.

Haack has a $988k cap hit with no dead money. I don't expect him to be the regular season punter.
-
Sherfield is already an UFA.
-
In Bates 5 seasons in Buffalo, he has had 203 snaps at Center. That's a little over 3 games. I think us fans penciled him in as "heir apparent" Center too quickly. They know what they had with Baters at Center.

If you take Tre's $10M post June savings and throw that on Von Miller's Dead cap, Von's outright cut saves about $1.5M this year and it's over. It's a possibility.

Bates, in his 5 years in Buffalo had 1436 snaps and only 203 at Center. I personally never understood how fans had him as a Mitch Morse replacement level player at the Center position. He performed decently but the coaches know more about what his effectiveness would be at Center better than me. Beane hopefully takes a couple of these Day 3 picks and get a true college center that can take over when Morse hangs them up.

Takeaways from Beane's Combine pressers
ColoradoBills replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Best explanation of the Douglas situation that I have read so far. Thank you. I would add that if anything, Beane probably had a long term $ number in mind for the extension BUT after Douglas's play that number may have gone up significantly. If it has it means his trade value (3rd and 5th) has gone up or at least remains the same. This talk of Beane cutting him is insane. If Beane thinks he may have to deal off Douglas, he may have multiple teams interested. It didn't take me long to look at this year's 3rd round early picks to see a team like the Cardinals needing a vet CB. Dealing pick #91 and getting back an early 3rd round pick is a net plus. It will be interesting to see what ultimately happens. -
Spotrac has them at -$37.5M after the McGovern restructure and the increase in cap space.
-
The Bills were way over $51M after they made the void year moves going to Dead Cap. Those players had to be replaced with others to get back to the 51 players. That is where the discrepancy comes from.

The New Orleans Saints do not have a good football team. They are in a weak division and haven't made the playoffs since Brees left (3 years). They are 25-26 in the last 3 years (in that weak division) and should have totally reset in 2021. You reap what you sow. I still laugh when fans think their "blueprint" is in any way worth emulating.

Salary cap question, Leonard Floyd’s dead cap
ColoradoBills replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall
KC has done a good job with the cap but don't let these current numbers hide what is in front of them. They have some big $ guys on UFA right now. Jones, Sneed, Danna and Gay to name a few. If those guys were under contract the numbers would be drastically different. KC did a mini-reset the year they let Hill go and got in a good cap situation while still dressing a good team. I'm in the group thinking the Bills need to reset this year. -
I tend to agree with your points. Although, I am an adult (actually becoming an old man). This "gun violence" is here to stay and there is nothing much that can be done about it in today's world. I will say that the destruction of gun violence doesn't end with the victim. At an event like this (and these crazy school shootings) causes a lot of parents to try to explain to young kids WHY it has to be the way it is. I know I wouldn't want to be in that situation. I'll take it a step further and say I'm glad I didn't have to go through something like that when I was a child. Gun violence, road rage, crippling addiction, sexual abuse, among all the other destructive traits, are too prevalent in today's world. I'll admit I feel a little sad that I have become numb to it all.

Does this team actually have the guts to move on from Tre White?
ColoradoBills replied to Jim's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agree. It almost amounts to the pay cut being a "prove your still worth elite money" deal. I think Tre would take it and not feel bad about it. -
Inside Jets dysfunction article in the Athletic
ColoradoBills replied to stevewin's topic in The Stadium Wall
2024 is the final hope for the Jets with Aaron. He only has a $17M hit. 2025 he has a $51.5M hit followed by a void year $35M hit in 2026. Jets have 10 other players with void year hits coming this year and in 2025. It's all in for them this season and if they end up with only 8 or 9 wins the draft won't help them either. UFA this March will be interesting in players both coming and going. -
I was myopic and forgot their #4. I agree with the KC thing.

The WR#2 Market (Spotrac Breakdown and Comparison)
ColoradoBills replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
I wouldn't restructure him again. You watch how many fans on this board will want to do that. I'm not sure what Beane decides on this issue, I give it a 50/50 shot on one more restructure. -
The WR#2 Market (Spotrac Breakdown and Comparison)
ColoradoBills replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
I agree Beane needs to go for the new WR1 this year. I don't agree with Diggs sticking around for the end of his contract. His cost (before they restructure probably one more time) is $28.4M in 2026. Current dead cap that year is $13.4M. Could be gone that year. NO WAY he is playing for $22M+ in 2027 when he is 34 years old with a $4.5M dead cap. -

Bills Cap Breakdown by Greg Tompsett
ColoradoBills replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Come on, just keep doing what the New Orleans Saints have been doing. You know that team who has missed the playoffs 3 straight years (in a weak division) and the same team that has won 1 playoff game in the last 5 years! It's brilliant. -
Wouldn't mind you pinning this for a bit for guests and visitors (some fans who I'd like to invite to this board), so they see the good in it. Just a thought.
