YoloinOhio Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Based on mcBeane comments yesterday, they want him back but only at certain price. Beane said last time he talked to him he was planning on playing, they’ve submitted an offer to his agent and are waiting to hear back. Even if Kyle Williams doesn't retire, it's no guarantee the Bills will re-sign him https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/sports/2018/03/01/buffalo-bills-kyle-williams-retirement-nfl-scouting-combine-nfl-free-agency/383689002/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the question would be, does he get a better offer from a team he would like to play for. He might like to stay close to home in Louisiana, say, and play for the Saints, but they had a great D last year with two young cheap DTs, would they want him? The Browns might like someone like Kyle because of his intangibles and leadership, but would Williams want to play for another team struggling to turn things around? I think that's where Beane is coming from, they're saying to Williams "here's our offer, shop yourself and let us know" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Really would hate to see him wear any other team's uniform. I would understand in that he might want to put himself in the best place to make a run at a championship now that the Buffalo playoff monkey is off the back, but it would still sting.

MiltonWaddams Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 It's a difficult position for the Bills to be in. Kyle was the heart and soul of the team for a long time. He was also an excellent DT. One of those things remains unchanged and his value has to be related to that of a team guy on the down slope of his playing career who should not be an every down player. It hurts to write that, as he is one of my all-time favourites, but reality is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I think the only place he'll play is in Buffalo. I expect the Bills to re-sign him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richNjoisy Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Kyle made about $9 mil last year. I expect a one year deal with incentives mostly based on playing time. They MIGHT give him a two year deal with a bonus which can split some of the contract to 2019. But, I would be surprised if this were not his last year. Ya never know, Ya know?

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 this is the part of the business I don't like. after spending your career with a team there is never any loyalty toward a vet who put it all out there for the team. it's all about money. hope they can work it out and I wont be selfish with hoping he retires a bill but instead wish him well where ever he may go, if they can not come to terms.

DallasMac Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 If I'm Kyle I wait to see what happens with the team. Mainly the Qb position. I don't think it would be crazy if he wanted to play for a contender for a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 please. we all know what's going to happen: he ends up with the Pats***. j/k....I think he ends up with the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
