If we lose him, we don't get compensation? The higher one was something like 3.85M and we would get 2nd round if somebody paid more? Seems that they gamble that nobody offers more.

GunnerBill Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 With Feliciano and Williams cut this was a must. I think they are gonna be aggressive about bringing in a guard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaCrispy Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I wish it was the 2nd round tender 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Very happy about this. Played extremely well at his value when given an opportunity. He should definitely have the inside track at one of the starting guards competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eSJayDee Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I like it. For whatever reason, I don't think the team too highly, as he was like our 5th choice for Guard, ergo not the highly tender. What little I know about line play, I've always been impressed by him. Maybe Beach Chair can make something out of him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back2Buff Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 2.5 million seems high for a guy that played like 5 games in a 3 year career. Is the market really that ridiculous? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can be aggressive. There are options for us. We are not gonna be able to take on big cap hits in 2022 but we can kick some money. We are fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the market really that ridiculous? He should have started all last year, but since he can play EVERY position on the OL, the coaches thought he was more valuable as a backup (taking 1 roster sport to cover 3 guys) instead of risking him to injury as a starter. "Genius" I'm guessing he'll start a lot more this year. 4 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: We can be aggressive. There are options for us.

I'm just not sure the squeeze is worth the juice for who is out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems that they gamble that nobody offers more. From what I've read many think the Bills plan to give him a 2 to 3 year contract, this just buys some time. So if he did get an offer, bills could match and then still extend. I'd assume you could match OR exceed?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
