Chandler#81 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 4 hours ago, Logic said: I'm reading through all the comments on Adam Schefter's Tweet announcing this signing, and it's a whole lot of WFT/Commanders fans saying how good he is, how they wanted him back, how Buffalo got a real gem. Usually, when a free agent leaves a team to sign elsewhere, fans of his former team defensively say that he's overrated, overpriced, they aren't sorry to see him go, whatever. Not the case here. Every WFT/Commanders fan that responds in the comment -- every single one -- has nothing but good things to say about Tim Settle. So you only follow the Bills, eh? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be other moves made at edge rusher. Right now the only rosterable players at that position are Rousseau, Basham, and Epenesa. At the very least Hughes and Addison need to be replaced. I expect that to be the next position Beane targets in FA. Hopefully Chandler Jones. I would accept Von Miller as a consolation prize if we run out of options.

Settle + Jones together are making less than or equal to what Harrison Phillips is making with the Vikings. Two for the price of one DTs. 2. Backup? Have you watched much Bills football the past five years? McDermott rotates his DL more than anyone in the league. 3. Free agency isn't over.

Are you saying that is a piss poor contract and he's not a capable starter? Harry was a one-tech. Jones is his replacement at one-tech. Settle is an expensive backup. I would rather ditch Settle, McKenzie and Siran Neal and go after an elite talent who actually makes a difference. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather ditch Settle, McKenzie and Siran Neal and go after an elite talent who actually makes a difference. Star was a bad contract. Paying Edmunds his fifth year money when it would take a minor miracle to re-sign him is dumb. Buffalo wasted way too much on these past two years for “above average” players and “depth”, while not getting that needed difference maker to go with Allen, Diggs and White. Im not going to say Beane is infallible. He’s a really good GM who has spent too much money/assets on depth and above average players to be the worlds most complete team… however that type of team puts more on Allen’s shoulders than KC does Mahomes. Im hopeful the philosophy is changing. Settle/Jones aren’t Addison/Star type signings. They are good players on inexpensive deals (relatively speaking). That’s good football, regardless of my criticisms of some of Beane’s past FA signings. Edited March 15, 2022 by SCBills 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like you I wish the Bills were more aggressive about bringing in high impact players. It's as if they over-think it...be just a tad more like a kid playing Madden, go ahead and look to add top players. It helps. It makes a difference. The Chiefs, Rams and Bucs are always looking to add top talent So when I see Ed Oliver, the best D-lineman on the team, get a backup for 2y/9, that sticks in my craw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @YoloinOhio said, this is a replacement for Butler. That because we are drafting the 1T in the first 3 rounds IMO and possibly even round 1 based on the way the board may fall if one of the Georgia boys fall.

That’s good football, regardless of my criticisms of some of Beane’s past FA signings. I think McDermott's loyalty to Star as a Panther was an extremely poor and expensive decision. And for 4 years he held out hope that Edmunds would be his Keuckly. Now I see some better decisions being made. Settle & Jones are substantially better than Butler & Phillips. And who knows, maybe Jordan Davis is still in play as Star's replacement? Definitely reason for "personnel" optimism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching his highlights (and I know they are just highlights from a small sample size), the way he took down QBs and ball carriers (with his length) reminded me of how Groot plays. Also in his highlights, he seems to get good push---playing on the offense's side of the line of scrimmage. Definitely an impressive 1st step!

MarlinTheMagician Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Star hurt us with the COVID opt-out. If he didn't have so much dead cap this year he would be gone, IMHO. He only has that much dead cap now because his contract was frozen during his COVID opt-out. Beane should have been able to escape Star this year, not his fault we can't afford to walk from him now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
