HappyDays Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Figured this was coming. I'm hoping they are opening up cap space to sign an upper tier pass rusher. Brown can be replaced in the draft or with Kenny Stills. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think he should be a priority. But sounds like Beane is ready to move ahead with Ford at RT, and maybe sign a depth guy like Rick Wagner plus another draft pick. If they're letting Williams test the market 90% of the time that means the player is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicagobills Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Damn going to miss him. He was hobbled by injuries most of the season. Would of loved to see him at 100% with Diggs next year. Oh well we have a nice trio with Diggs, Beasely & Davis 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigdaddyinOrlando Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Dam, figured this was coming but still saddens me to think he won’t be back. He and Cole came hear and help start the turnaround. Injuries definitely have curtailed his career! Will root for him and hope he lands somewhere beneficial to his skill set! 15 2 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Sad to see ya go Smoke. Thanks for buying in and giving it your all. Class act and I’ll miss your interviews. Had to be done. It’s a numbers game and his number didn’t match his production in this offense now that we have Diggs 13 9 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefferson actually does have a dead cap hit of 1.5 million according to Spotrac. But the savings still amount to 6.5 million given that he had an $8 million cap number.

Rc2catch Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Thanks for the effort smoke. Fun player to cheer for. Khalif Raymond... Go get him Beane.. Speed, return ability, barely played in Tennessee .. Cheap.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBills1998 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 He lost a lot of steps last year and looked really slow.

BillsSbSoon Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Really not too ecstatic about brown. He was hurt all year. I think he wouldve had a 2019 bounce back year easily if he was still there. Is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I think Davis is a star in the making. What we do need is very quick explosive fast twitch WR that can man the slot and return kicks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
