YoloinOhio Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) he wants a new deal. Not sure how it will fly with Gruden who has come off very old school. With the cap space we have next year should the Bills go after him with an aggressive, market defining offer next March if he hits the market?

Happy Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I doubt the Raiders end up letting him go. But if they do, and depending on how we address the LB position in the draft, I'd be all for going after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I wonder how well he fits the scheme. Obviously he's a difference maker, but a poor scheme fit carries its own set of headaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Absolutely I would pay the man anything if he does become available. Especially if we end up trading the farm for a QB this year we'll need to make up for it with a couple big splashes in free agency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxy312 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I don't see the Raiders just letting him go. They're going to start next year with about $75m in available cap space, so i would presume that a deal gets done and he signs a new contract with them. Worst case scenario, they tag him. Talent like Mack is going nowhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he apparently said he didn’t lke the pick back when the Raiders drafted him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I don't care how Old school Gruden is, you don't let an edge rusher as good as Mack go. Those guys outside of QB's are arguably some of the most valuable players in the league and to the best of my knowledge he isn't any sort of a troublemaker or team "cancer". I think this is just a simple case that he wants to get paid and he and his agent are prepared to play hardball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 He’d be VERY expensive, but great QB, edge rusher and LT is what cap space is for! I’d prefer young and cheap, so maybe we get lucky before then? Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) It would be a huge play for the Bills, but I fully expect him to be franchise tagged if something doesn't get worked out. Edited April 9, 2018 by H2o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgotBILLStopay Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 While Mack can play effectively in both a 4-3 and a 3-4, he is devastating in a hybrid multiple defense. He is more suited to a Rex Ryan Defense than a Sean McD defense. For a traditional 4-3, he may not be worth the price. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got "Vegas Star" written all over him. I had not followed his career at Oakland very closely, except to know he is a terror as a pass rusher. I see he is listed as a DE. That suggests he's a good fit, probably as a Jerry Hughes replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaLoko Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Can we get a little bit more delusional? getting not only the best player in a roster, but also maybe one who is the highest ranked (my own rank, anyway) in our conference, in regards to the impact he has on his side of the ball / field?? how? just because a coach change and / or because he wants to get paid?? Something doesn't make sense in this thread...it might just be the long / slow offseason we all have had as fans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Raiduhs are too stupid to sign Mack, the Bills have a monster opportunity to right the wrongs of the past. Bring him home (to steal from Les Miserables). Delusional? Perhaps, but this has been a wild off-season, and McBeane wheels and deals. Hope springs eternal, and who cares if Casey strikes out if he goes down swinging? Did I get enough references in?
