Sisyphean Bills Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Mark Anderson was a big, recent flush of cap money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Mark Anderson was a big, recent flush of cap money. Yeah his signing was a total miss by the Bills. One of the reasons why regime changes are so painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah his signing was a total miss by the Bills. One of the reasons why regime changes are so painful. They spent some big money to gear up for the Wannstedt philosophy to play defense behind a dominant front-4. The way it played out, it was like investing heavily in saddles a couple decades after everyone else in town is cruising around in their new Aventadors. PS: So the Bills have the second highest amount of dead money and yet are $25 million under the cap. http://forums.twobil...-under-the-cap/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Fitzpatricks contract is a chunk of that, anyone know where it all came from? Fitz, Anderson and Lindell account for almost 11 million IIRC Edit: 11.375 for those three and another 500k for Brad Smith Edited February 23, 2014 by JM57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXBILLSFAN Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 It's mostly Fitz ($7M) and Anderson ($3M), and largely a moot point. The Bills have enough cap space to sign their FA's and draft picks and also be a player in the mid-tier FA market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 http://espn.go.com/b...ad-money-totals I hadn't seen anyone post this but the Bills have the second most dead money for this year, 12 million plus. I know Fitzpatricks contract is a chunk of that, anyone know where it all came from? In order for the Bills to step into the future from the lackey past they need to change 2 things in the franchise that hasn't been changed in for ever . First who ever it is that allows this kind of contract writing (such as the Fitz debacle) to put the Bills in the position of not being able to use this extra cash . That being Jim Overdorf if i'm thinking correct ? He is a dinosaur it's time for them to move up in that area . And second we need to up grade the training staff which Whaley & company are wanting to do . http://bills.buffalonews.com/2014/02/23/sources-bills-coaches-want-change-training-staff-front-office-might-agree/ The trainer Bud carpenter has been on staff for some 19 years . Even though they have done a decent job in certain instances such as the quick reaction to helping Kevin Everett but they need to jump into the new stuff which the article will help to explain . We all can attest to the Bills injury woes over the years , It seems as if we are one of the teams that always has a bunch of injuries . If they can get more preventative training it col help us get past a lot of these injuries . These 2 things need to happen to not only to upgrade the Bills staff but to put back in the mix of being a more competitive & viable NFL franchise !!

On the other hand, how many teams go through an NFL season injury free? Perhaps it isn't that there are injuries as much as there isn't the sort of roster depth to adequately compensate for the injuries that are, statistically-speaking, inevitable.

Nanker Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm on board with canning a 20 year employee. Maybe we could line up and throw snowballs at him as he leaves the building for the last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we could line up and throw snowballs at him as he leaves the building for the last time. That would be overkill. Just fire him and tell him to never come back. But there is a time for a change. Perhaps they can re-assign him to another position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPS Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I assume that means they'll have $12 million freed up for next year when they need to sign or extend several key players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you elaborate on the concept of "preventative training?" I'm under the impression that trainers deal with post-injury details. GO BILLS!!!

As bills fans, we know we keep them in the front closet, ready for action on a moments notice. And of course always a good idea to carry an extra set in the trunk. (Just in case).
