I think you are likely low balling on all fronts

If teams wanted to pay him a lot of money they could have traded for him Already.  I don't think he'll get an exorbitant pay day.  We shall see.

I use 2 lb as “starters”

 

depth charts haven’t caught up but truth is that the majority of snaps are definitely in nickel. Once you pull out dine, goal line, etc... we are only in a “base” 43 so often. Milano and Zo, are good role players for that.

McDs defense in Carolina seemed to use 3 LBs a lot.  Davis, Keuchley, Thompson.   If Bills had three versatile LBs I think we would see more of that look.

Are you actually expecting him to be a Bill?

This doesn’t even make any sense. I should be the one shaking my head....

 

...it makes about as much sense as you saying he won't come to Bflo, unless you're his agent......seriously?..............

Seriously? Do you honestly think he’s coming to Buffalo? NEWSFLASH: We don’t have any money to sign him. Seriously? SMH

...was scheduled to make $5.85 mil this year and $6.85 mil in 2019, so you probably are pretty close to what it will take.............

If anyone wanted to pay him that they'd have given philly a 7th rounder for him and moved on. He's had injury issues and he didn't make "enough" plays in Philly so he was expendable. At this point in summer expect a 1 year show-me deal.

...thanks for pointing that out which I did not know....a one year "show me deal" makes perfect sense with $85+ mil to spend in 2019...good call bud...........

We still have to sign Allen. And also Beane has already said that he won’t spend up to the cap. So there’s that....

We need about 3m to sign Allen and we have about 17 post-Ritchie. We have a lot of money to spend and not come close to the cap.

they have enough money to make one solid buy.   They should use it now.  I assume they are hoping a receiver shakes but there are no guarantees one will

Milano needs to play.  Kendricks can play Sam.  Zo can platoon in at Sam, Mike or Rush DE.  

agreed i like the idea of having Alexander available to play in different spots.  He was best as a situational pass rusher under rex

We just cut Incognito... We can use his money on Kendricks... And maybe get some more money by cutting Humber

Im surprised it took four pages for someone to bring up this useless rhetoric.

 

Ralph Wilson doesn’t own the Bills anymore, so the “He’s not coming to Buffalo” crap no longer applies.

You guys are so mad. Buffalo isn’t even listed as a potential suitor....

Too bad he and McDermott missed each other by a couple years in Philadelphia.

 

Andy Reid started him his whole rookie season, which must count for some amount of points in McDermott's book.

I see you arekind off picking up what I was putting down in the Dan Morgan posting

We're under the radar. :ph34r:

I’d be ecstatic if we signed this guy. But I’m definitely not getting my hopes up. Literally every time a player gets cut someone comes and makes a thread about it and people talk about him coming to Buffalo. Every. Freaking. Player. Realistically the odds of it happening aren’t that great.

I agree - potential good fit at the right price.

 

Would be interesting to see what the Bills FO is thinking.

right price?

Prove-it contracts are best suited for guys coming off an injury or a down year. Kendricks had one of his best seasons, and is in a good position to capitalize on that. Somebody's going to pay him.

 

Chris Wesseling at NFL.com wrote that Eagles coaches saw him as more of a two-down player, but he could still be valuable to the Bills. He's young enough to have several years of quality play ahead of him. The Bills could lock him in for three years, use bonus money to backload the contract, and have him locked in at the top of his game when the offense is rebuilt and starts rolling.

Yes, it's ridiculous how many threads we get about players being released. Some of them are not even worth it.

 

However, signing this player, makes a lot of sense.

Got it - he can only be signed once a team has been added to a made up list.  Interesting.

Actully the Bills are in pretty good shape compared to many teams.

 

This is very wrong. 

 

Additionally as we have a lot of Cap space next year - we could be a team to offer him a nice signing bonus over 2-3 years and back load some money if he wants years.

 

There is no reason to assume he could not come to Buffalo - the question is does the FO see him as a player they want to go after.

Seems like a lot of writers limit their 'potential suitor' lists to playoff contenders, so I don't take them very seriously.

Good player but won’t come cheap...

 

Would rather they spend their meagre leftover resources upgrading bigger areas of need - OL and WR..

i hear you. but this piece would be tidy up the LBs immediately. major upgrade to Humber as  a starter.

The very definition of "****ty fan" is not wanting the team to succeed or improve just so you can be proven right on an opinion. Look it up. Cover One did about twenty videos on that very thing.

I have no idea who or what cover one is and I really don’t give a ****. I stated before that I’d be ecstatic if we signed this guy. You guys act like we have a very high chance of signing him, and we don’t. Dickhead

Oh no, not this take!! “I’d rather be right than the Bills improve” is the worst take a “fan” can possibly have. I remember losing a couple of EJ fans because they couldn’t handle being wrong about him. The simplest rule of fandom is “Best interest of the team > my opinion on what’s in the best interest of the team.” That rule is 100% true in any and all situations.

You did say that. So you want the Bills to. And then after stating that, you said I hope the Bills don't sign him just so some fans are wrong. That's Day One Play One . Kudos!!

This guy is really a great fit for McDermott's Defense.

To good a fit not to pursue imho.
But i do not have all the background noise to consider. Gotta trust the FO.

I don't think we are going to sign him either. It's possible but not very likely. We do have the money and the need. We don't know if Beane and McD want him at his price or he wants the Bills at his price. Probably not.
