No_Matter_What Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Interesting. That is much more than we need just to fill roster with players on vet mins isn't it? So somebody with 5-7mill. cap hit coming soon? I think Beane was more than clear that he will do this only if totally necessary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he wants to restructure contracts of players who they may move on from in the near future because that’s creating dead cap. Think Steelers and Saints as teams that live that way and pay for it later. Guys like Tre and Dion have built in conversions like this in their contracts to help make the cap fluid. That said he didn’t want to pull that lever until he had to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsShredder83 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Awwww snap. its def got to be somebody. Too late in the game to do this generally w/o something lined up. Whats Ertz $ supposed to look like for this year? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I doubt it's for anything significant. We still need some o line and LB depth. And maybe a vet CB to compete for the #2 job.

machine gun kelly Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 They wouldn’t do this for the draft this early. They are preparing for a trade or a signing. I thought once the tv deals were announced Beane would be doing something like this move. He now knows for sure we’ll be ok in 2022 and beyond. Should be fun to watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Typically from what others have said on various shows, these are the moves done immediately prior to signing somebody...you don't just do it to do it, you do it when you need to do it and have had the discussions with players so you have the go ahead when needed and have those moves in your back pocket... Seems like we will be hearing about something else coming up shortly... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo44 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Could do something similar with Dawkins and Hughes/Diggs could be extended with cap friendly savings. FIngers crossed a signing or trade is upcoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gross cap hit will be about 6 mill but it pushes other salaries down past 51. Only need around 2 mill in space for rookies. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that keeping Addison and Butler are the decisions that keep the Bills out of the Super Bowl? Then whom do you think substituted in their place gets us in there Mr. Polian?

Don't get me wrong I love Beane but he's made some awful investments in this Dline. Apparently every team's GM is supposed to only make amazing moves? I mean realistically, no team ever makes 100% good moves, there are always some that don't work out properly. He has made far more good ones than bad ones...as can be seen by this team making the playoffs 3 times in 4 years following a 17 year drought, winning the AFC East for the first time in 25 years and winning a playoff game for the first time in 25 years and then making it to the AFC Championship game in Allen's 3rd year. We are only just getting started on this run...relax a little and enjoy it... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the restructure to sign McKittrick yesterday, get enough funds for draft picks and have a bit more to go after vet minimum players over the course of the season. You need some money for injuries, draft picks, and if a guy is cut that you might want. I do not see this as a prelude to a big signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
