26CornerBlitz Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 After a 1 year deal for Maclin we gotta be getting low on cap space They had more than $15M last I saw. Barnidge would certainly command less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) After a 1 year deal for Maclin we gotta be getting low on cap space A quick mess about on Spotrac got me to 10M of cap space just getting to the 53 man roster without cutting anyone important. If Maclin comes in a 4.5 there's still room and all the draft picks are already signed. Not for nothing, the closer camp gets Barnidge's price goes down, not up. That said I have to believe Baltimore makes a stronger offer. Edited June 6, 2017 by That's No Moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domdab99 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Taylor is a fine QB...I'd even go so far as to say that, with a healthy Watkins, McCoy, and Clay, he could conceivably have a break-out year and really get into the pro bowl. I have independently confirmed this by thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 yes, typically I believe that to be true. Still, I'm waiting to see that they have officially signed him. Maclin would be a great pick-up for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Gotta go in off-peak season. We once stayed at the Hard Rock and got the fast pass thing. Our son felt bad passing all the "regular folk". I tried to explain to him how much those rooms cost, we paid HUGE to get ahead of those sweltering people! He now has his first car payment.......my how things change.

Clyde Smith Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Walt Powell said he's not giving up his #19. He can also go back to wearing #18, and take it from Listenbee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 #BillsFanatics @BillsFanaticsBF 6m6 minutes agoMore BREAKING: Sources have confirmed Jeremy Maclin is #Buffalo bound to sign a 1 year $4-5M range contract (pending incentives). Well now... If this pans out things just got a heck of a lot more interesting...If all 3 can stay healthy Watkins, Maclin, and Zay is one hell of a major improvement over what the Bills fielded the majority of 2016...And I think that's a bit of an understatement... This would be wonderful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Well now...

This would be wonderful... Can't wait for Schoop and the boys to pile on the short sighted nature of this move and it's only going to get us to 8-8 and we shouldn't do this because it's what we've done for 17 years. I'd rather keep swinging and glad to see the move of it happens. Gives me a little tingle down there. With a healthy and stacked receiving Corp. and slightly improved d, we could make some noise after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill_with_it Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Certainly feels we are having a bit of demonstrated competency from our gm. It feels odd after the last few years. Last year our wide receiver room looked like the cast from the replacements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's in My Blood Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 If this signing is true, then can we please put to bed the "Buffalo can't sign top tier FAs" once and for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 From Rotoworld's Maclin page: Jason Fitzgerald of Overthecap.com recently estimated Maclin would command $5 million annually. Would take Maclin @ $5M > Woods @ $7M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8billsfan Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) My personal insider claims Jeremy Maclin is on his way to Buffalo to sign a 1-year $4-5 Million contract with pending incentives. Waiting for more sources to confirm. If true, this would be great! Edited June 6, 2017 by gr8billsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiltonWaddams Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Dropping knowledge late night. You will get flamed if this doesn't turn out to be correct, so gutsy move. However, it also sounds like a very good possibility. Kudos to you either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
