Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) I'm guessing we hear something by Monday. A lot of things to consider. How many snaps will he get here? He's likely to sign a 1 year deal in a place he can maximize his snaps. I think it's between us and the Packers. Got to remember Pettine coached him.

But that might be system and scheme. Trust Coach to figure that part out. Do not overpay of course, just add enough realistic incentives. we should list them here quickly ? you are welcome to start. Mine was Judon or Van Noy I like both the ones you proposed. Here are some other LB FA's: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/linebacker/ this is also a great site to visit to keep up to date on signings, etc. You can also rank them by sacks, or whatever metric you prefer! 10 hours ago, MJS said: Did I miss something?

I'd imagine most airplanes are vacant. If you stay 6 feet away from a contaminated person, you won't get it. It spreads by droplets, not air. so airplane filter systems will capture it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Not surprising. Kirksey just wouldn't get the snaps. Decent contract. I bet Buffalo put a competitive offer out for 1 year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I wanted him, but understand him going somewhere where the money and playing time was a better fit for him. We just don’t need a 3rd linebacker that’s going to play more than 50% of snaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Good deal for him, Packers are trying to win one before Rodgers hangs it up. Glad the Bills passed on that contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOboy Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I'm fine with this. Would've been a nice add, but not necessary at that price, especially with term. There will be plenty of other options at LB. And plenty of other places to spend our abundance of cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent contract. I bet Buffalo put a competitive offer out for 1 year. Agree 100%. Was definitely interested in Kirksey's potential in our defense on a one year prove-it type contract, but his injury history makes that term/dollar amount the Packers just gave him unwise IMO. Happy that Beane didn't sign that type of deal, plenty of other fish in the sea. Get me a few of Reader, Quinn, Higgins/Sharpe, Haeg, and Brieda and I'll be a very happy man.

IgotBILLStopay Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 2 yr 16 mill was too rich for us.. especially with so many LB free agents out there. I would even add 3 mill per year to Kirksey's deal and be happy with Littleton at 11 mill AAV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I really expected him in Buffalo but I didn’t expect a 2 year $16M deal. Kirksey is a good player when healthy. With the Bills he would be a part-time player though. That feels like too much for the role he would have played. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I might be in the minority here, but I think his deal is relatively fair. I don’t see him as fair to be labeled injury prone when his last injury isn’t the kind of reoccurring and just bad luck most likely. He was healthy first 4 years. Stafford was labeled fragile because he had a couple bad luck injuries to start his career. Then went a long time before getting hurt again. Sometimes in a violent game you get a couple injuries close to each other. I’m not so quick to label a guy injury prove over that, especially if it’s not consistent ticky tack stuff. But I also won’t lose sleep over this, but just do think his contract was reasonable based on his level of play before the last 2 years got shortened.

For a full-time LB'er like he'll be with the Pack but not here, it's a fair deal. Health-willing, of course. But time will tell on that one.
