LeGOATski Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 congrats to Robey! He's great in Rex's defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'm guessing that it isn't a big contract if the numbers haven't been reported yet. Usually the agent wants it out there right away if it is and calls one of the NFL guys like Schefty with the info. But that makes sense based on who he is... It's a very prudent signing.

YoloinOhio Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 @Rand_Getlin: I'm told it's a two-year extension for Nickell Robey and the #Bills. The team wanted to reward him for his contributions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 We could tender him respectably (2m is still cheap for a corner) and get a pick back if we lost him. RFA situations aren't much of a worry. Comp picks are determined by round player drafted in; as UDFA Bills would get nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 everyone has already been talking about, and Richie. Sounds like a good spot to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Love me some Nickell. Singlehandedly destroyed Miami, all 5' 8" 165#'s of him. Whatta football player. Great move by the Beels to sign him now before we have to match an offer sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 8-10: NICKELL ROBEY TALKS ABOUT HIS CONTRACT EXTENSION ON WGR (12:50) @WGR550 Robey on contract: "I thought they were going to let me play this yr, but it came early.... when my agent came to me, I said 'let's do it'" Robey: "That D-line, we know they're going to get pressure. There aren't going to be many double moves (from receivers) this year" Robey says this year's defense will be the best of the past three years. "I feel like this defense will show improvement" Robey: "We ask the receivers every day who the quarterback is going to be" "I feel like it's a tight race" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Comp picks are determined by round player drafted in; as UDFA Bills would get nothing. im not trying to detour too far into this topic, but yea, thats true if you give him an "original round" level tender, or you could tender him higher and get a 2nd for about a 2m tender, or a 1st for less than 3m still.

26CornerBlitz Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 @mikerodak Nickel Robey's 2-year extension is worth $4.1M with $1.3M guaranteed. Incentives can bring deal to $5.1M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 @mikerodak Nickel Robey's 2-year extension is worth $4.1M with $1.3M guaranteed. Incentives can bring deal to $5.1M. That's a nice little contract for Robey. I really like that the upcoming Gilmore extension (assuming it happens) means that we'll have the triumverate of Gilmore-Darby-Robey locked in for the next 3 years. I think the writing is on the wall for Leodis after this season, though I think an addition at safety may throw Graham back into the mix at CB after this year as well.

Matt in KC Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Mike Rodak @mikerodak 14m14 minutes ago Robey's cap number next year will be $1.6M, which is considerably less than what 1st or 2nd round RFA tender would've cost Bills. Good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
