Bray Wyatt Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 A RFA 2nd rd tender would be $2.81M . Rather have a long term deal , it's up to him, he is good. I agree a long term deal would be better, but when we are strapped for cap space, I think its better to tender him at the 2nd round price. And tbh, if someone signed him away I would rather another 2nd rd pick than keep Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiskibreth Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yea it's garbage to want things right. Yet another Internet tough guy busy toiling in mediocrity. Dude. Go make your own message board then. I'm sure it would be perfect. Reports are coming out saying Gillislee might get $4 to $5 mil/year. Seems awfully expensive for a backup running back when your starter makes over $8 mil/year. Yeah, that is allot for a 2RB. Hope the report are overstated. Love me some TD Mike, but $4M is way too much. Many starters don't even see that. Was Jackson's figure even that high?

Webster Guy Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Hey I'm an optimist but TD Mike needs to keep his head down more and learn from the Shady School of How to Avoid the Concussion Hits or he's gonna be in trouble. The poor dude took some season ending hits last year trying to squeeze out the extra yard. I would rank TD Mike as one of the top backups in the league, up there with guys like Coleman and D'Angelo Williams. How many backups can get around the outside edge like that speedy little beast? This was a great find by Whaley. He really has done a good job uncovering some gems in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrober38 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Gillislee could start for about a dozen teams in the NFL. He's a punishing between the tackles runner, has speed to take it to the house, is a capable receiver out of the backfield and can pass protect. He'd upgrade a lot of teams' rushing attack. He's more than just a good backup and we'll have to pay accordingly to keep him long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more financially responsible to give the second round tender on him and if he leaves,take that pick to get our WR or RT,and roll with J Will.just my opinion of course....

If they give Gillislee $4-$5 mil year I fully expect them to cut Lesean McCoy to free up cap space. In 2017 no one in the NFL is allocating 10% of their cap to the RB position.

Tsaikotic Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I'll have to pay more attention this season at J-Will..I just dont see what some of you are seeing I guess...I'd rather keep TD-Mike as #2, I like the way he runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Gillicutty is a damn good back...seems like he had a 20+ run in every game last year and led the NFL in rushing average as a RB If they give Gillislee $4-$5 mil year I fully expect them to cut Lesean McCoy to free up cap space. In 2017 no one in the NFL is allocating 10% of their cap to the RB position. Gillislee is not getting 4-5 million a year. Maybe 1.7-2 million a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meathead Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 they are good bc marica gives them the glue to stay together for a long time so their systems are all maximum mature. once she declines/retires pressure will be on to stay at the top, which they wont possibly be able to do unless they luck into yet another goat back to back, which aint happening. it will degrade from there and it will all unravel. the fable that bill is master genius is an illusion. cant wait to watch it crumble without the golden girl they never deserved making it all possible watching him go back to being just a surly jerk once the pixie dust wears off is going to be the best part. unless he does the smart thing and just retires forever once his bff hangs up her golden slippers its just too bad that their two latest sb wins were due to two of the single most boneheadedly bad offensive calls in sb history gave those games away. would have been very satisfying watching them justifiably lose those two as they should have. but cant change that history now. gotta just be happy their undeserved luck at a sixth round miracle of all time is nearing its end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris66 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Garropolo was running the same offense Brady was, right down to the checks. Will they win 12 games every year. Probably not but 10-11 isnt out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 1.7-2 million a year Why not? He's been incredibly productive the last two years. He's a 3 down back who can run the ball, receive and pass protect. He also has tons of tread left on his tires. Like I said earlier, he could probably start for a dozen NFL teams. If they want to keep him long term, they're going to need to pay him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yea it's garbage to want things right. Yet another Internet tough guy busy toiling in mediocrity. Johnny, we're a band of brothers here. We all share a love of the Bills. We all share the misery of the drought. We don't need to add to that misery with personal attacks. That kind of stuff just makes this board unpleasant for everyone. Gillislee could start for about a dozen teams in the NFL. He's a punishing between the tackles runner, has speed to take it to the house, is a capable receiver out of the backfield and can pass protect. He'd upgrade a lot of teams' rushing attack. He's more than just a good backup and we'll have to pay accordingly to keep him long term. I was disappointed when KW didn't work out. Every team needs a good backup RB and MG stepped up beautifully. Not sure he's really a NFL starter but certainly deserves to be in a rotation. It would be great to see him and Shady play tag-team for a couple more years.
