Bottom line....resign your own best players and continue to draft well ...great point John and a big difference from Whaley (our posting Rico's best buddy-LOL).....never was convinced Whaley was given full GM power versus personnel gopher as in "we need you to go fer this position player" directed by "The F Troop" brass........pretty sure he had an upcoming year with 23 UFA's......McBeane artfully crafted "prove it deals (players with longer term potential) " whereas Whaley was commissioned for "stop gap players" regardless of longer term prognosis....strictly opinion......

I'm really not into signing Tre' to a big deal - he's very good - in a zone scheme. Some stupid team (as with the Redskins and Josh Norman) will imagine he's a lock-down man-to-man guy and offer him something ridiculous. We don't want to match that.

I feel the same way about Whaley. We’ll likely never know unless Rex does a tell all book at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR is their biggest need, IMO. Hoping they bring a good one in via FA AND the draft. ...many of the TBD collegiate experts have said 2020 WR class is the "best in years"......just a hunch that McBeane goes the draft route...... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping that secondary together is probably a top priority. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1105 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 While Levi Wallace is technically a Free Agent, he is an exclusive right free agent meaning he can't negotiate with another team, so don't worry about him to get snapped up by another team. Mckenzie is a Restricted Free Agent so if they Bills tender him, another team would have to pony up a 5th rounder for him(unlikely). I think you'll see Ford get bumped inside next year and Spain has been inconsistent so he will probably go. Jordan Phillips i'd like back but he's going to be looking for his "big" contract next year. Lawson will probably want to be a starter and get a pay bump in a different situation. I could see Alexander coming back if he believes the Bills are legit super bowl contenders. The only guys I can see the Bills wanting to bring back that could leave is Dean Marlowe. He is also a restricted free agent but he was undrafted so the Bills wouldn't get compensation for him. I could see the Bills tendering him but getting a bigger deal that the Bills dont necessarily want to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guaranteed to be narcissistic drivel, but the sports writer recap should be comprehendible. Of course there’s always the option of a book on tape, a joint or drinking game, and plenty of laughs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poyer, Milano and Dawkins would need to get paid, especially Poyer...He has been one of the best safeties in the NFL. I have a strong feeling we will let poyer walk and J.Johnson will step in his spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see the Bills tendering him but getting a bigger deal that the Bills dont necessarily want to pay. I still think he might negotiate an actual contract with Wallace. Primarily to spread the cost and keep the yearly cheap, The benefit for Wallace would be guaranteed money now and more salary in the first 1-2 years than he would have gotten. Phillips is going to be interesting. Can’t say the guy will take a home town discount, but all things being equal I think he resigns here. Plus, Beane might not want to shake up the DT rotation. There’s always the chance some team offers stupid money though, especially if he has another monster game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d take a good hard look at Geronimo Allison if the Packers let him go. Dude can play and finds openings when Rodgers scrambles. That’s got some value considering Allen’s talents. They’ll probably resign him, but they’re close to the cap and are about to find out what their younger WRs have to offer. In general, I’m not too enthralled with this years WR FA class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
