jr1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 let him go to a Philly type team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Joshin' Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I let the agent make the first offer and then counter. I would be prepared to offer 2 yrs, $7M total ($4M 2018, $3M 2019). No signing bonus, maybe a roster bonus week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPS Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd give him something similar to V.Davis, $5 mil with the ability to hit $7-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bomb Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I tell him thank you for your service but we need to get younger not older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Direhard Fan Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I have a feeling we are trying to change the curve and make the Bill's a family business where you want to stay with us and we treat you fair. Maybe that was a dream. 5M and one year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Why not just tell him that the Bills will match any verifiable offer he gets from another club? I doubt there will be any high priced offers for a long in the tooth D Lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Whatever he wants...If he wants to go to another team that might be a 'contender' grant him his release. If he wants to retire a Bill, find a fair salary and give some financial consideration to what he means to the locker room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle has made his money and IF he wants to return it is for something more than cash. I believe 1 more year with Kyle (Senior Team Captain) in the locker room is worth 5.

dpberr Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 This answer depends on how you felt seeing: Bruce Smith and Andre Reed in Redskins uniforms and Thurman Thomas in a Dolphins uniform. If those images made you cringe or physically feel ill, you have your answer as a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) Someone up thread had it right, he still has value to this team. The culture was much better last year and Kyle was a big part of that. The younger guys followed his lead. If he is gone who is the veteran leader on D? Pay him as a rotational guy and put a little whip cream on top to lure him in. Edited March 1, 2018 by Commonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd offer him 2 million for the year and a bag of cash in his locker worth 3 million ... kinda what the cheatriots do with Brady. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ittakestime Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Well you just offered a corner 1 year with a max of 8, why shouldn't Kyle get the same? The last two years, Kyle has been way more productive than Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many reasons do you want? 1) The corner is 5 years younger 2) The corner plays a position that is in higher demand 3) The actual cap hit of the corner's contract is $4.25M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 KW can still play at worst, he's a super backup more likely scenario....he will still be the best DL on the team pay the man.....$6 mil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no evidence that Kyle Williams is an immaculate leader. All I see is Micah Hyde giving our young secondary confidence on the field and Kyle Williams just playing his position.. he barely even talks mic'd up.

I saw plenty of clips with Kyle breaking down the team after victories.After Kyle scored his touchdown you could see how much the new/younger guys rallied around the vet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 3 hours ago, elltrain22 said: Simple question. If you were the GM, what would you offer Kyle Williams. This is a very tough question, b/c his market value is probably around 4-5 mill, but if I were Kyle (or his agent) he'll probably want/ask north of that figure. So, if I countered with, and this is my answer to this question, I'd offer 1 year, 5.5 million. I probably wouldn't go higher than 6, and certainly wouldn't go into the 7+ range. I'd hate to see him go, but 35 is 35. Whatever happens here, Kyle is still a Bill Wall of famer, and wish him the best where ever he decides to play next year. 1 year 5M. 3.5 Guaranteed could go as high as 8M tied to incentives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
