Creates 2 things. Cap space (anyone know how much). And the extra pick which tells me they may be more inclined to trade up for one of the WRs. I can hope
Well they say it's a weak draft in lower rounds due to all the guys staying for NIL money.
But these extra picks are worth hardly anything to move up. Looking at a draft chart if they took their now 3 picks in 5th plus their 3 picks in 6th, they could move up from 28 to around 22. In the 2nd round could move them up about 13 picks.
I could see them packaging a number of these fifths or sixths and move up to bottom of round prior, maybe get and extra 4th

What in the bloody f*ck did I just read?
There always seems to be a direct correlation between the dumbest posts and the number of posts made by the person.

Why is this woman doing football drills with a professional football player, she brags about getting the best of him then sues when she gets hurt? And I’m not defending the scum bag just asking a question.
Agree as I stated initially, there's more to this story than just condemning him too.

You're sticking up for the known woman and child beater? Good job.
And you're just assuming he's guilty. Sounds like there's a lot more to this story than typical assault on a woman. Easy to for her to use his reputation against him too. Normally I wouldn't defend him but as someone else pointed out a tic Tok influencer bringing a lawsuit sounds a bit too convenient

Kind of funny that Schefter questioned Carton’s motive and then turns around and does the same thing except playing the opposite side of the story that it didn't happen.
And that’s what qualifies as a report; you can just go say whatever you want, and it gets clicks, and people care about it

I think the NFL should allow teams to trade dead cap space away. If a team has the cap space and wants draft picks, let them make that decision.
I'm going to get flamed, but I would trade a 2nd round pick, Knox, and Von to someone if that took their contracts off our books completely without a hit
It kind of happened a few years back Cleveland traded to Houston their QB along with his massive contract plus draft picks so Texans would take the contract. Then if I remember right they cut him. But the contract has to be written in such a way to do that without taking a big cap hit.

Damn he's f'd. No way he ever recovers that money unless he goes on to sponsor the meds he was taking.
Based on how he played, that may be a reach. Got a better chance sponsoring a competing product: "I should have used the other one, then I'd still be starting!"

I think this is going to depend on how well it heals up. It’s not like I’m rooting against the guy.
But it is concerning two major injuries
Agree, I'd cut him if I could.
But he has to pass a physical by March 11th, then the Bills have leverage and can cut him or convince him it's in his best interest to take a big cut. But if he can't pass then no reason for White to do anything, but sit back and collect the money the Bills are required to pay him.

I am beginning to think Tre may fall into the injury settlement category. Back to back season ending injuries with long recovery times may lead to him never playing again in the NFL.
1 minute ago, John from Riverside said:This is why the injury buyout option is there
Never happen. Players typically take injury settlements when they were placed on IR, but have now fully recovered and can then get money from the team giving them the settlement, and then basically double dip and sign with another team. In White's case there is effectively no IR list in the off season and he wouldn't be ready to play right now anyway. For those reasons, can't see the injury settlement coming into play here unless he's still not ready to go in Sept, but was healthy by say November and won't happen till then either.

I’m trying to figure out why people think Tre’Davious White wouldn’t take a pay cut
Two. Devastating injuries to both of his legs getting on in years.
He seems like a prime candidate for a paycut
Because until he can pass a physical he can't be cut. So come March 11th or whatever the exact day is, all his bonuses kick in and the Bills are on the hook for that, but they also can't cut him as I stated unless he can a pass a physical which is not likely. So why would White agree to a pay cut unless he's somehow rewarded?
The Bills can cut him later on, but by then they would have had to have cut a couple other players to get under the cap in March. And for White he then got the money from the Bills in March and can then sign later on with another team.
So put all these things together, I'd say White can dictate terms pretty well.

It's right there in the title. The man we basically got in return for Patrick Mahomes has basically been nowhere for this team since 2021. He's due to make a ton of money in 2024 and judging by his "comeback" in 2022, it seems absolutely insane that they are gonna pay him all that money next season to fearfully rehab through November and then play like a 5th rate CB when he comes back.
We also have two starting CB. Benford and Douglas.
Cut Tre White's ass as soon as we can. Either that or he needs to accept a shitload less money, cuz otherwise we will just be showing that this team is not serious about winning a Super Bowl.
OK smart guy, tell me this, will Tre White pass a physical by the first day of the new "NFL financial season" which starts in March? Do you know that? Because if he can't pass it they can't cut him. So then it very quickly becomes a choice of we have to pay him most of the money anyway so even if he's limited, in the long run is it better to keep him as we'll need to pay him a ton sometime later to cut him as after March he's now guaranteed a bunch of money, plus then paying additional money to whomever replaces him. So are they really even saving anything.
As for Hamlin, he's is on a very cheap rookie contract, so again where do you think you'll find someone cheaper and even better as the 4th or 5th safety?

He completely bungled OT. I think it shows a low IQ guy. These guys are gifted so much talent on their team, and then they don't have the intellectual capacity to conceptualize the strategic differences between the old OT rules and the new playoff OT rules. Also, you have to know your opponent and the time of the game. Both defenses are gassed, your goal has to be score at least 7 (I'd argue if you get the ball first, you should be trying to get 8 and force your opponent to match).
You have to make sure Mahomes isn't getting the ball in a walk-off situation. Because he's shown most of the time to be able to convert it.
But that's exactly what could have happened if the 49's had kicked off. The only guaranteed walk off is the 3rd possession which the team that took the ball first in OT gets. Not saying I agree with them taking the ball for other reasons, but the walk off argument just isn't one of them.

Just a question without passing judgement. Would your feelings be different if it was the Bills going for their third ring this weekend with Allen being a 2 time MVP and the same was being said? No wrong answer.
Exactly, too many posters here are way too easily slighted by everything not pro Bills.

As much of a joke as he was here, he's not a bad defensive mind. His problem was he tried way too hard to pivot away from Schwartz's defense without the right personnel
He seemed to have run a rather complicated scheme then over the years other teams figured it out, so Rex made changes, but then was to the level was too hard for players to think quick enough and react. Probably would work good in Madden on computer simulation.

As a Hurricanes fan I was glad to see him go when I saw the headline.
Later found out he was going to the Bills. 😂
He just wasn't pulling his weight as a recruiter.
He could turn out to be a great coach for the Bills........he came to Miami well regarded........he just did the worst recruiting job of any position coach on staff and that aspect has only become more important in recent years.
What I'd look for is the Bills to maybe gain a little scouting edge on late round DB's..........he has recruited a lot of these guys(mostly unsuccessfully) in this draft class while at West Virginia/Georgia/Miami.
Well if that's his biggest issue, don't see that as a problem in the NFL.
Could also be why he's leaving college as that was the one part of his job he hated and didn't want to be bothered with much.

Read an article today how Baltimore lost their DC to head coaching job, then an defensive assistant to a DC job. I'm surprised they didn't promote one of their own earlier to avoid this.
From Athletic article:
The Ravens’ offseason is not even a week old yet and their vaunted defense has already lost its defensive coordinator Mike MacDonald (head coach of the Seattle Seahawks), assistant head coach/defensive line coach in Weaver (defensive coordinator of the Miami Dolphins) and defensive backs coach Dennard Wilson (defensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans) The Ravens are currently paying the price of that success.

Was there also an NFL referee with a very similar name? When I first saw the title of this thread ,I assume it was about an official dying.

Hope he saved his money from that change of ownership out he took in his contract from us. Thrilled he did it. Astonished the arrogant pr-ck really thought he was going to be a hot HC candidate.
I wonder if Belichick had been taking advice from him this off season?

Is this not worth a discussion?You know it’s TWO third round picks, right? If a minority defensive coordinator is hired to be a head coach, the team he left gets two third round picks.
The question is if Frazier fits that description.

I get that but you have to be careful what you wish for. Cobbling together a whole brand new unit might be amazing, or it could be a disaster. There's something to be said for continuity. What's the answer? I'm not sure.... I think it's a really tough call.
I like Jones as my #1 target on that list.
I'd be hesitant of Epenesa $$$, but hopefully he comes back without a stinker contract for the club.
My "Walk" players are Leonard Floyd, Jordan Phillips, Shaq Lawson, Linval Joseph, and Von Miller (find him a new home).
Maybe if we traded Miller and our #1 pick for a 6th or 7th rounder we could get someone to take him. So he's done as you said, which not arguing for or against, but then why would anyone else take him?
Can't afford to cut either Diggs and Miller and nobody is trading for those contracts unless we really sweetened it..

I always felt it's unlikely any other coach could have got the Bills back to 4 straight SB's than Levy, but would have gladly switched coaches for that one game. Likely would have resulted in a win or two. Also felt of the 4, the only one the Bills were clearly the better team was the 1st one against NY. If that had been our 2nd SB appearance, think we'd have been better prepared and won. The other three, IMO the better team won, but the Bills never even made it close.
In fairness Polian was let go for things more off the football field. Allegedly cursing out RW's daughter certainly didn't help.

'tis the time of the season that people get all excited for all the big names who are set to become FA's.
Then the Tags come down and most of the names everyone got excited about are off the market.
Read awhile back somewhere that for the most part players that are really good or great, either get re-signed or tagged before they ever hit the market. And the ones that do become actual free agents, there's often a reason for it i.e. T Edmunds. There are some that are good signings, but not that many and most of the good ones that are worth the money they sign for are the ones that get signed weeks after FA starts.

I'd think the home team in Brazil will be an NFC team as this year the NFC gets the extra 9th home game. That is one thing good about going to 17 game schedule whichever conference has the extra home game, they assign most of them as the home team in Europe and no reason to believe difference for Brazil.
