ngbills Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Has nobody read the rules that only B7uffalo can afford one $10M+ salary. In all seriousness, it is possible. You have to stagger contracts and be smarter about things. Cant waste $40M on guys like Jefferson, Butler, Addison, Klein, etc. Or $4M on special teams guy. Other teams have done it for years.

Rochesterfan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 1 hour ago, dbfla10 said: You all realize Mahomes only accounted for 5mil towards the cap this year. So using him as an example doesnt work You do realize that much like White (and Mahomes) they will extend Allen meaning his 4th year (next year) and his 5th year deals will be significantly under 30 million a season. Any Allen contract is not going to be a big hit until 2023. It will allow him to get more upfront, but spread that hit out of 10+ years. Relax and look at the Mahomes template. 🤦♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you kidding -- how about the other three teams playing last weekend? Buccaneers, Packers, Chiefs all fit the bill of highly paid quarterback and at least one highly paid receiver. Two of them are playing in the Super Bowl. The Saints, a stones throw from making it have consistently contended paying Brees and Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deandre Hopkins yearly salary is going to be nearly twice that of diggs. Diggs is going to ask for more money, and based on other contracts he deserves it. I know he has 3 full seasons left, but so did hopkins before his trade. Going to be very tough to afford these two unless the bills ride out Allens contract till his 5th year, which I think is best. Shocker, another anti bills thread from someone who wants to claim the sky is falling.. oh god, chicken little. Nice try. Won’t be back. Have f7n with you’re anti bills fans so you can have fun with each other. real bills fans. Let them have their fun.

Big Blitz Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 With a ton of cap space in 2022, not even sweating this anymore. I actually think all 3---Milano Williams and Feliciano will be back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) I'm sure people have a answered but we don't have to worry about Allen’s cap hit for a couple years. So I'll worry about them in a couple years. Edited January 26, 2021 by Buffalo_Stampede Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YattaOkasan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Stefon has little leverage if he doesnt play under his current contract (I believe he doesnt vest if he doesnt play), and we have him for 3 more years. This really isnt a conversation cause that trade was sneaky good because Diggs' contract was very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern_Bills Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 This will get worked out, not the least bit worried. Good teams pay the stars and draft young talent as well as bring in vets as role players. If they can't figure that part out this won't last long anyways. Everyone can't get paid, like Milano, he's good but something tells me we will live without him. 18 minutes ago, iccrewman112 said: i am and don’t call me Shirley. that type of money is plenty for generations.

So because his parents had money he should eat it? Nah, he puts his body on the line. Advice to him is get a market deal, make it somewhat team friendly and he can make concessions on a year to year basis if the team has cap issues. No way I would take less and put the ball in their court. To bring up his parents monetary value is crazy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Question: How can a team afford to pay their star players? Answer: Don't overpay a bunch of underperformers to hang around your locker room. Next Question? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahomes contract averages $45,000,000 a year while Hill averages $18,000,000 a year. So yes, the Chiefs meet and exceed your arbitrary threshold. The Saints and Packers both average above $45,000,000 a year between their quarterback and top receiver, the Buccaneers more than $40,000,000. It's possible -- in fact I'd argue if there are two positions where you should spend on top talent this all suggests it's quarterback and receiver.
