As for the Chiefs currently they are down their tackles and starting center. No, you have to get rid of all them now including Allen. He duel mahomes and lost!!!!!!!!!!!! It would be better to go into the season without players than trot out any of the same losers from last season.

I thought this was a known but I’ll make sure I clearly articulate this To do this we need to keep the franchise healthy and rolling so why we wouldn’t prioritize keeping the RT who kept Allen upright seems weird to me, if his price has gone way up then okay I can be convinced we had to let him go but I don’t like the notion that we will just draft one and that it will all just be okay 2. Our defense struggled to get to the passer last year consistently, this defense got shredded in 2 of the 3 playoff games with Milano in the lineup so I’m not convinced at all resigning him for 11M properly addresses the defense and helps us achieve any of the goals I just mentioned with a down cap year IF milano’s contract prevents us from getting Williams or an elite pass rusher I think it was a bad decision is that not crystal clear We don't know all the specifics yet regarding the contract other than a $7M signing bonus and the yearly salaries. It looks like year 1 is about $7M cap hit and year 2 is about a $9M plus a roster bonus. I'd be surprised if the Bills can't get out of it after year 2. Would be about a $3.5M dead cap hit if they did. Looks like they re-signed a good 3 down LB and still have cap space to re-sign Williams or get a TE or a DE. Plus they don't need to draft a LB.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Well the Bills are thin at Linebacker with Milano. I am 50/50 on this move. I think we need a Tight End in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uninja Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 This feels like a win-win, Milano's cap hit this year is ~$7m which is very good imo. Milano also gets a decent long term contract with the team that drafted him and developed him. He's in a good situation in Buffalo and he knows it, that's big brain energy.

Orlando Tim Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 He came from a local high school and I just looked up when he played and who he played with in high school. He was a sophomore when his team had Ha Ha Clinton Dix and a RB who was a 5 star recruit. He is not a name I remember at all but he has obviously got my attention now.

Governor Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) I’m not trying to start rumors, but you have Edmunds finding the closest TV camera and trying to make his case a few days back, then Milano is signed. Something tells me Edmunds isn’t sure about his future with the team. Are we going to invest that much money into the LB position? I doubt it.

DJB Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I wonder what the dead cap hit is after those first two years. That 24 million guaranteed seems to me like a 2 year contract with Milano likely cut in year 3 of the deal. I like it because we need to have at least one decent LB on the team. Too many questions about Edmunds to let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me that if Milano is playing well his contract could very easily be traded if cap becomes an issue after 2 years. My personal hope is that both Matt and Edmunds have not reached their ceiling yet. A full healthy summer to work on their skills would be nice.
