Shaq Lawson wants "that cash"

I don’t expect him back as I think McBeane & he differ widely on fair market value. Add to that, some team is so desperate for D-rush, they’ll way over pay. He’s already made very good money from his 1st Round selection, though imo, has only earned it the last season & a half. 

But I’ve been wrong before.

His Value is about 8M a year AVV.  If he wants more than that he isn't getting it from ANYONE

 

A 4 year 31M with about 15 GTD is what he is worth

I'd be offering 2 years 16M. Let him stay in the system, continue to improve, and then seek out his payday or sink.

I expect DE and WR to have the most talent overhaul this offseason.  Both will be addressed in FA and draft.    Shaq is gone.   

 

Why spend $8-$10M on 5 sacks, when you can spend $12-$14M and get 10+ ?    Bills can afford the extra 4M a year to get what they need.

I don’t think you’re wrong here: he will go to the highest bidder. He is a serviceable end but not worth breaking the bank for. 
 

I trust Beane will find a better player to replace him.

Free Agency is going to be super disappointing for you if you think we can get a 10+ sack guy for $12 to $14. Try closer to $20.

Also, to be clear, I'd pull the trigger. Now is the time to spend (my view on this has changed a bit over time). 


yep I would as well. Buy the pass rush draft the weapons (at least this offseason)

Yeah I felt a disconnect.  In his post-season presser Beane was talking as though they expected to re-sign Shaq but knew they were gonna be too far apart on Jordan Phillips. 

 

But in interviews, Phillips was talking as though he'd like to be back and Shaq was leaning towards "I want to test free agency"

 A TE that "sets the edge" will continue to be more valuable as the league trends toward more mobile QBs..... That said, Shaq's injury and his work ethic "held him down" in his first two seasons.  He's shown two years of improvement and this regime has really helped him.  If he demands top DE dollar - let him walk.

His agent needs to sit him down and make sure he understands he isn’t seeing double Digit AVV. 
 

if his agent isn’t doing that he is failing Shaq. No way he gets a contract at the 10M AVV. 

I would disagree. And not cause I think he’s worth that, just that teams are handing out ridiculous deals. 
Last year would we have predicted the Landon Collins deal? Or Kwon Alexander?

I guess we will wait and see. But I am pretty good with my value predictions. And I think during the Tampering Combine he is gonna get a reality check
