thurst44 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Sorry if this posted earlier, but was right underneath a 5 hour old tweet that definitively said he was going to Jets for precise amount of money, and it made me laugh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, the Bills could clear roughly that much space just by cutting players they don’t need in the event that they sign Bell.

ndirish1978 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Bills aren't in this. Bell vastly overestimated his worth and it led to him pissing on his old team, losing a boatload of money and he will ride off into the sunset with a joke of a franchise for less that he could have received from the Steelers. But hey, at least he made a terrible mumble rap album! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Cutting shady saves 7 mil. I think cutting ivory saves 2+. Thats 9 mill cap space right there. Cut them, sign bell. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) I think Bell is a unique talent and like that the Bills inquired, but would prefer to draft a RB and use that money on a premier pass rusher like Ansah or Houston.

Doc Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 7 minutes ago, Mat68 said: The signing bonus and guaranteed was under 15. That why he didn't sign it. Yup. Brown had a similar high-average-low-guaranteed contract with the Steelers and Bell didn't want the same. But the Steelers stuck to their guns when they could have guaranteed Brown more money and kept him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GETTOTHE50 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Id offer him 3 years 55 mil. 18 mil this first year, 15 mil the next, and 12 mil in the 3rd. Bills would still have plenty for its draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Interesting day. Would be a massive signing. It seems Buffalos intrest is more rumor than actual. Beane is a quick mover.

I just dont think he wants to play for them and Gase, like Paradis and Barr. They had to wayyyy overpay Mosley to get him to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CajunBillsBacker Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Sign Bell, Cut/Trade Shady and Ivory. Bell, Gore, and draft a guy, say Bryce Love in the 4th. That backfield along with the receiving core we put together today would be unbelievable. Also get someone like Noah Fant and that would be insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 55 minutes ago, Reed83HOF said: HeHateMe and HeWontPayMe, This makes sense to me. But I’ve said all along that I’d be surprised if we land Bell, so maybe I have a biased view. I think the Bills still believe in Shady and feel that he will rebound with a better o-line and passing game. The Bills brass has backed Shady numerous times to the media and said how the o-line play and passing game needed to improve to open up the run game. Then they put an emphasis on upgrading the o-line + WR corps in free agency. They also signed Shady’s good friend Frank Gore. Plus, we haven’t really heard the Bills linked to any other RBs on the market (outside of a couple tweets about bell), which makes me feel like they don’t necessarily see the Rb position as a huge area of need. (though to be fair, the Bills don’t have many leaks these days). I still think he ends up with the Jets, or maybe Baltimore if they panic after losing so many good free agents. I think Bell is holding out for every penny and one of these more desperate teams (like the Jets) will up their offer enough to entice him to sign. Thats my guess anyway.

rayray808 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Why is it completely out of the question to have Bell + Shady + Gore? Many teams run a thunder/lightning approach and Gore is just the back up in case any of them go down. If we can land Bell today, our draft opens wide up! Especially if QB falls we could even trade back and gather more picks. Scared money don't make money... let's bet on Bell 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
