Kelly the Dog Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Just now, ColoradoBills said: Spotrac already has his dead money listed. Updated cap is 8.4 million. That's what I thought, and why I said it was 10m before the Coleman cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter to the overall 18 cap, you just move it from live cap to dead cap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 2019 salary was added to this years dead money. Thus the drop in overall cap. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeSpeed Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 17 minutes ago, Canadian Bills Fan said: Robert Foster made it? That's surprising And I'm a huge Bama fan Colman was brought in to be the speed guy, but I don't think he did anything more than Foster, so I would think Foster would be cheaper?

Estelle Getty Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) Foster was constantly open, he can't help that QBs overthrew him. He might have dropped 1 or 2, that's about it. With that being said if they keep him for the whole season they should put him on the field. You don't keep playmakes to have them ride the bench and "learn".

You know he was a 1st round pick so that's a good question. Usually from what I seen, the contract $'s wanting to be reclaimed is usually talked about for the top 10 picks. Plus I believe Cleveland would of been the beneficiary of that contract not Buffalo. If I get time I will see if I can find more about those contracts.

He has played in Red zone Offense. and scored . Not sure the dislike for him, once you accept his role on the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is what I inferred in the original post of mine you responded to. I said that was not news. That is what it always was. He had that guaranteed salary for two years the day we traded for him.

When you have the physical abilities NFL people will ALWAYS take a chance And so what on the cap hit.....players that hit the market at this point of the season are not going to cost that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows that the Pats have done well with caucasian slot receivers and every time a team lets one go (Chris Hogan) we have a WNY panic attack. Reilly is a fringe player and if he was all that the Bills would love to keep him. I want the Bills to win many Super Bowls and if it takes small moves forward to climb to the top of that mountain I will be patient with the present FO. It was more about the backstory. How he got this far, His Dad. He is a Bills Fan hope. It is how many of us think i suppose. and he could play football. But the odd were again , not in his favor. Good Kid Good story. wish him well !
