Turbo44 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 My guess is contract is structured something like this: 2022 1m salary, 3m signing bonus 2023 4m salary so cap hit in 2022 is 2.5m i wouldn’t think ir would be $4m each year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Very glad he is back. You get your potential starting slot wideout, and kick returner for $4 million a year. Well done Beane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I hope they use him if they are willing to pay him $4m when cap is tight. Can get much cheaper gadget wr that play only a few snaps. Other than the NE game he was barely used. 1-2 catch/rush a game is not worth $4m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo44 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 His role as an end around runner is elite. If he can learn to protect the ball better he’s also an above average returner. As a slot WR vs man to man he’s way above average. Vs zone is where he needs to improve. His % of play on offense should go way up from the 20 or 30% he got last year. sign Harry, gronk and a ++ DE (after some more cuts, restructures and extensions) and we’ll be good to go to the draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) ♥️ 💙 this makes me happy. Eager to see how he handles being the starting slot guy. Now we need to add another solid TE so we can mix in more 2TE sets with 3-4 WR looks. Or try and turn O’doyle Rulez into our full time TE. I hope there’s an emphasis on versatile with our scheme and showing more and more different looks. Evolve the offense ladies and gents.

babulator Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 My first reaction is one of relief. I like Isiah and think we could use him better. Yes, there's always a better player and a better deal but he's our guy @ a reasonable rate. Chemistry, continuity and rewarding your own etc etc etc. It's a good signing, he still has plenty of upside and I hope he get's some creative touches. I like it! Go Bills!

The investment is large enough that he's gotta' be considered the starting slot receiver...........but also small enough that you can see them paying a high end veteran TE to pair with Knox and using more 12 personnel. This is an overpay IF McKenzie doesn’t improve on his numbers from last year. I am guessing the front office and coaches met to discuss what his role will be. McKenzie will get his shot since Beasley won’t be on the roster most likely. My concern with McKenzie has always been durability due to extra touches.
