Even bigger no brainer

No brainer. But I was told by many on here it was not happening. Thank goodness.

I am waiting to read: Allen and a bunch of other restrux Dawkins extended Harty released Hines released or renegotiated Bates released or renegotiated

There is a good chance these guys are looking at deals around $5M per. Sadly that is what we are paying Hines.

This would be a very nice pick up. Depends on how much $ he is looking for.

This is my issue with the Bills roster construction. It has slowly gotten better because it had to due to some of the large contracts. But too many of those mediocre higher paid guys over either cheap rookies or even cheap vets. We keep guys like Neal around for over $3M and he plays a few snaps here and there. Replace that with the cheapest deal you can get. You do that a few times and you have room for a $10M guy all the sudden. Imagine we had Hopkins last year...

We talking about high school? Never mind he graduated in 2018 and has a ton of college tape since he played 5 years of college bowl. Man you should have seen uncle Rico throw the ball over the mountains. If only coach had put him in they could have been state champions.

If we are ok paying guys like Hines and Harty $5m we should be willling to offer that to a legit rb. If that’s not enough oh well. But in this market it could be.

Von Miller says hi

The Panthers have never had back to back winning seasons. Ever. In McD years there they only had two winnings seasons. The 2015 season made them all feel like huge winners despite the lack of success long term.

$10M is just way too much on these guys in any year. But with limited cap space that money is needed elsewhere. If these guys are willing to take less money ($2M per) then maybe you keep them. I doubt any team in the league would be paying them more than $2-3M.

Waiting for Harty and Hines to be added to this list

Sometimes these long term "love story" like relationships are unhealthy. A lot immaturity and lack of relationship experience can result in accepting high school that does not exist in adult relationships. That plus people are together because they have been together before they even knew who they were or wanted in life. Just together because they have always been together but if they met for the first time today they may have no interest in each other.

Well Von was 32 years old when he got that contract. By far the oldest edge rusher to get a deal that big. Most guys getting that deal are 25-27 not 32 years old. The Chiefs have been avoiding giving Jones a a large long term deal and he is only 29. I can chalk Tre up to bad luck with the injury. Issue with Knox is they paid him top TE money. He is overpaid and even worse now that we have Kincaid. Plenty of teams had more productive guys than Knox for less money.

Just cut MVS and save another $12M

Especially the process built on the success of William & Mary and the Carolina Panthers.

Plus $14M to Dawson Knox which is essentially Kelce money and 5 times what they pay Gray as TE#2. Between Miller, Tre and Knox that is $55M in cap.

For those saying Cook + anyone is enough. Clearly the Bills dont trust him or think this. He comes off the field a ton compare to most lead backs in the league. We need more than Ty Johnson, fun to root for a guy like that but he does not scare anyone. You add Henry like some have mentioned and that would change defenses mindset.

No tags expected on some of the big names - Jacobs, Barkley, Henry, Pollard, Ekeler and more. This RB free agent pool is gonna be stacked. Guessing we can upgrade from Harris/Murray/Johnson and it wont cost much at all. Here is who we are looking at: Barkley Jacobs Ekeler Henry Pollard Swift Dillon Singletary Moss Dobbins Edwards Elliott Edwards-Helaire Gibson McKinnon Murray Harris Akers Kelley

Hines and Harty seem like no brainers. Though I wont be shocked if nothing is done.

Worse than this signing is that Smiley still has a job.

Probably paying him under $1M. Get a competent punter for half what the Bills are paying their guy. Money that can be spent elsewhere.

Do not see it. Henry is in his final years to try and make good $. He will be on the Bills in 3 years when he is making the vet min. I could see them getting a guy like Swift or Ekeler though.

I dont think that is right unless I missed something. Mahomes signed a 10 year / $450M deal. All they did was move up a bunch of the money to 2023-2026 not give him a new deal. Its the same $450M.
