It's not my money. I don't care how much he gets. Just saying I'd prefer to have Kiko plus whatever money saved to get someone else as opposed to McCoy.

They can sign whomever they choose to as long as that player wants to sign here. Ryan did not prefer Alonzo here whether you agree or not

Agreed, it is a very good deal for the Bills and McCoy. I love how they structured this deal with plenty of cap space left for OL help and to bring Hughes back.

They've always had enough space to sign Hughes

That's correct, but this gives them a little more latitude in structuring his contract with less guaranteed money. Also gives them some more room for other players at other positions of need.

Right, but it would have been ONLY Hughes. Now we can get Hughes, and another OL and/or TE, or whoever else.

Not sure about that. Hughes cap hit can come in low also along with a couple players cut this week. It does help but doubt it affects negotiations

Even that is overstating the situation.... We were 18m under the cap.... Give hughes the same kind of year 1 structure and we still would've had 12m (the space numbers all obviously higher now). weve never been close to trouble unless you are planning to add 4-5 of the top 25 free agents.

NOt for nothing - La Canfora is a dick

Bills went above and beyond for Shady McCoy. 5 yrs and 26.05 guaranteed w/$13.125 sign bonus. $40M total comp with $16M (!!) in year one...

That's an unreal haul for a guy coming off his worst season still signed to longterm deal at a position being devalued in most places...

Mccoy at $16M for '15 blows away any other RB compensation for this year. Peterson at $13M (if not lower on a new deal). Lynch just got $12M

Bills may well regret this pre-free agency splurge. Bid against themselves on McCoy and Incognito and they're not done spending yet...

  1. @JasonLaCanfora More of the same anti-Bills garbage. At least you're not making up false reports about them today. Yet.

Yup.

 

Add that the cap is expected to go up by $10-$15 million next year and there is tons of room to resign Dareus next year.
