Aussie Joe Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Just now, BigBuff423 said: And truthfully, that's how good / great teams operate. You Draft well, you strategically spend money in FA, and when warranted you retain the pieces that are building blocks. Not being big players in FA means the rest of it is going well and the team is getting right. Some perennially good NFL teams stay away from the bright stars of FA only to keep winning year in and year out. That's how this gets done, by building the culture and Drafting well and keeping the good players that contribute to the system. Beane continues to prove himself over and over again and I couldn't be happier. Nobody is perfect, but this man and his staff are knocking it out each Off-Season. And they are both back at team friendly deals because they would have got another $1-2 M a year elsewhere... Guys want to give that up to stay part of this locker room 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsShredder83 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 So now that we took care of our own, we have a wide open draft. Gonna need a guard sometime after 1st round.... who's this free up to draft? Beane is God if he runs up the board for Pitts 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahnyc Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 You have to think with so much turnover in personnel for most teams, combined with the more limited opportunities for offseason team work, that this continuity on offense and defense will only help us this upcoming season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) This re-signing was my #1 priority this offseason, and my only reservation about the Milano extension was that we wouldn't be able to afford Williams. Incredible work by Beane for structuring the contracts, and McDermott for building the culture that made them possible.

jwhit34 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Do the Bills have a John Nash clone working the salary cap for Beane? Brilliant. I'm going to guess that Williams counts $5-6 million against cap this year. Still room to maneuver. No Lee Smith saves another $2.2M. They have to decide what they want at G, they have Ford, could sign Boettger and/or Feliciano, could draft a G. Lots of options. Most of all it is so nice that they have a sound plan and strategy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCofNC Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Nice, eager to see how they structured this, but good to have the T’s locked down, if Ford can come in and do some run blocking at Guard beside him, the run game might finally open up. Looks like the big spending is probably done, barring a major shuffle on The DL, going to be hard to pay for Mongo it looks like, probably will be elsewhere next year. I’m a bit disappointed with that, honestly would have preferred for Morse to be the one on the move, but he is certainly a very good player, so it’s not the worst thing.

eball Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Beane is a wizard. By re-signing Milano and Williams he's not creating holes and therefore giving himself maximum flexibility in the draft. This also goes to show that the players are totally buying in to McD's program. They want to be here. Not the same old Bills any more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think animal sacrifice is good enough. Wooh, now I’m going to have PETA on me. All kidding aside, how nice is it NE also in the same day resigned Cam. Yeahhhhh! This was nice with an AVP. $9.4 mil/ avg. deal. I wonder who else we can get to reduce in their salary, and I wonder if they go somewhat to Tre for a restructure and convert some to Bonus. It doesn’t matter to him as he gets the same $ up front. I love Mongo, but not sure if this is now off the table. He’s great to me, but not what was reported he wants. We’ll see. By the end of next week, we’ll have a good handle in 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Cubed Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I’m still thinking OT is in play at 30. This draft is deep for OT. They can plug the rookie in at OG, then he takes over for Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
