26CornerBlitz Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 @AdamSchefter Bills have added $2.5 million in incentives to LeSean McCoy's contract, per source. More incentive for more production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Murica Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Good for him, he deserves it. He's elite at his position and one of the most dynamic players in the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I think this is good, a little more motivation for the focal point of the offense. Not much good the current cap space can do the team. Plenty more room if they need to make a move down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsbackto81 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Because he didn't make enough already? Anyways, happy for him! -------It's an incentive, not a guarantee. Performance? 1500+yards 15 TDs? Games played? Maybe all 16? Receptions? 70? Shady is already an elite back. Any additional production is worth the cost IMO.

hondo in seattle Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) Good news. Demonstrates to Shady that the Bills new regime values him. Shady was already under contract.

Bills Pimpin' Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Proves to me that McD has a good feel for his players. Shady is a team guy but also seems a little self absorbed and is into personal goals as well. Personal goal incentives seems like a good way to motivate him and in turn help the team.

LeGOATski Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Incentives based around receiving production? I could see that being a negotiation point, considering the new offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Haha are you guys messing with me or are you being serious? They gave him 1 year worth of incentives for absolutely no reason other than to motivate him to have 1 good season. You can't be that dense to see what's going on here. If you think a highly paid RB in his 30's is part of a rebuilding team then you need to get your head examined. In 2-3 years when we are expected to be good Shady will most likely be retired.

Shady balls out and does great this year. he Is motivated and makes more money, Bills get a guy who can show he can still ball so he is better trade bait I don't think Shady needs to prove anything to anyone willing to trade for a RB to begin with. He may only have a couple years left in the tank, but every team in the NFL knows what he is capable of without added incentive to play even better. McCoy had 1623 combined yards last season, which was 5th in the league for RBs and 27.6% of the teams yards.

It's all about aligning those production incentives with the different things this offense wants to do, as opposed to the old offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 He doesn't look good enough around the league now? Hasn't put up Philly type numbers since coming here, no. If he puts up the type of numbers he did in Philly teams will know he's still got it and his trade value goes through the roof. A RB desperate team will be itching for a back that can put up big numbers like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about aligning those production incentives with the different things this offense wants to do, as opposed to the old offense. Agreed. As I said earlier in the thread, I expect him to be heavily involved in the passing game as Arian Foster was for the Texans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
