BillsPride12 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Vikings overpaid but I'm sad to see Harry go. Thought he played great football down the stretch of the second half of the season last year. Great community guy. He will be missed. Best of luck in Minny! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patzen Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 He could live up to that contract but his play here doesn't warrant that much cash. I wish him the best. What a great dude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 This is tough for me, considering his injuries. But he was an anchor down the stretch for us and played 60% of the snaps on the D-Line, which is a lot for a McD defense. It's tough to bank a lot of money on him, but I don't think 6 mil per was a lot. Especially if it had the appropriate "out" clauses.  2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Murdock Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Tough to see Phillips go. But too much $$$ to retain him (But only because of the Cap issues) . Bills defensive line now has some serious holes. The bottom line is that Phillips - Hughes - Addison - Wallace, were all significant contributors to the Bills #1 Defense in 2021, and will soon ALL be gone. Unfortunately, Rousseau - Basham - Epenesa (And maybe Settle?)are expected to replace these players and have proven zilch. Even if the Bills sign a stud like (Chandler Jones?) that still will not fill the holes of those who left. Bills have much work to do if they are to maintain a solid SB caliber defense.    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterStrategist Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Seemed well liked by coaches/players, and involved in alot of great community events.  But on field play, average player. He had some better moments in the 2nd half of season, perhaps Minny taking a flier on him continuing to develop/stay healthy. Be curious what the contract details are, as 3 yrs 19.5m could be much different in reality.  I think our staff prioritized physicality, on both lines, as our first few FA signings have much more of that trait than the players being replaced. Good luck to Harry, but glad we are going in a different direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hitched his wagon"? As if he was the one who manufactured that narrative when drafted? You give an awful lot of credit to him for drumming that line up.   That bitterness is quick to materialize with some folks here. Guy got a life changing payday. Something he can, I don't know, maybe continue to use to pay it back to whatever community he is in? Should we resent him for doing great thing in Minnesota next year?

billsfan89 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Would have loved to have Phillips back but they brought in Jones and Settle both solid depth options. Not the worst price for Phillips but not cheap either. The front office made a value call and in the end they decided to move off Phillips.

ndirish1978 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 This one hurts, I was a big fan. Availability hurt him a lot, so did that bag of useless Star opting out for a year. Still, I'd prefer having a true 1 tech in DaQuan Jones and the upside of settle to Philips/Butler, it's a wash at the least a decent upgrade at best.
