mrags Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Just curious, why did they not franchise tag possibly our best (at least top 3) player on defense? It couldn’t have been too much to tag a MLB and now you lose him for nothing. Just curious. Anyone? What would the cost have been to tag him?

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Best MLB wearing cement shoes. Hard hitter and a good football IQ( he was awesome at Louisville) but he's just not athletic enough. A guy like Roquan Smith or Rashaan Evans would be very nice with the signings today IMO.

I believe the tag number was right around $15 million for him. No way in the world is he worth that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB is a liability in coverage and was exploited often. He made a lot of tackles downfield as he had to chase the runners blowing through our line, give him that, but not fast enough to cover.

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 After Roquan Smith and Rashaan Evans, to me, the only guy in the draft who appears to be an upgrade is Matthew Thomas from Florida St. Other guys like Josey Jewell, and Micah Kiser don't seem any better than Preston Brown------> but WOULD be a lot cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is he only projected to play OLB? I like Jewell. Seems like the process type. I also like Scales from Indiana - ultra productive albeit less-than-ideal measurables.

Wsam4031 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I like PB was a decent tackler and stats benefitted last year by no from 4 help. Good locker room guy but god help us all if we pay him $15 million for 1 year. Id offer that over 3 for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I thought it was because he stood, pointed and laughed at Tre White after Gronk knocked him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
