Ed Oliver undersized DT who had one pressure in a playoff game against backup o-line.
bills picked up his option, I would have no plans on resigning him after this upcoming season so I would cut my losses and get whatever I could. Use the money that he was owed toward the OL.
I will say it again. Any time Josh Allen wants to take a $10M a year pay cut he can choose the WR or O-Lineman he wants that money to be spent on.
Hate on Tom Brady for a lot of things, but he regularly took a yearly cap hit of 15-17M something like 65% of the highest paid QB.
Poyer, Edmunds, Taiwan Jones, Siran Neal, Tyler Mattekavich all come to mind as folks I’d let walk.
id find a way to trade Oliver mainly to get out of the salary for the year.
could Dawkins play G? Could he move to right tackle? In my dream off-season with Poyer and Edmunds money the 2 best Olinemen available are signed regardless of position.
Also I think this makes the off-season a bit simpler. Oliver, Poyer and Edmunds can all go without resigning. And the 45M can go directly to replacing Saffold and Bates and Morse (as I expect him to retire).
hard to fire McD with all the off the field/non-football stuff they have been through. But the coordinators need to change.
I might call Sean Payton just to see what he’s up to.
