I wanted him when he came out of college, and I feel like it's kind of come full circle by getting him here as he closes out a HOF career. We don't need Von Miller to make the playoffs. We're already a playoff team, and we'd get back to the postseason with or without him. We didn't sign Von Miller to win the division. We would probably win the division next year regardless. We signed Miller for one reason and one reason only -- to win a super bowl. And he signed with us because in his judgement Buffalo has a better chance of winning the super bowl than the team that just won the super bowl. Not sure how a person could be unhappy with that. We paid too much. He wears glasses. Why doesn't he spell his name Vaughn? Can he play in snow? Did his girlfriend ever give back the engagement ring? Oh, that was the other guy. I hear he eats his wings with ranch dressing. I don't know why I'd be unhappy with it, either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinTheMagician Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Miller cost $17.5 million per; Hughes plus Addison = $17.6 in 2021; we get YOUNGER and better! Miller much > Hughes+Addison 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like he'll be so bad we'd have to cut him, and crush our cap doing so. At 35 no one knows what he will be like. He could be (as one talking head loves to say) falling off a cliff then, or maybe just gets banged up and takes him a lot longer to recover. That’s why I said POSSIBLY for the third year, he also could be fine! I think for the Bills and where the team is it was a SMART signing.. I just don’t know if it gets you over the hump..

Like will we see a bunch of number changes this off season? Von Miller already asked on Insta if 40 was available. I think if a backup or PS player has the number you want, it's considered OK to ask, but kind of "bad locker room manners" to ask for the number of an established starter (especially one who is a playmaker on your side of the ball). So if, say, Reggie Gilliam were #58, Von would be "hey, would you let me have that number?" Asking for the number of a guy who was one of the leading tacklers and in fact led the team in TFL last year is probably not the way you want to enter the room. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping resigning McCourty means they draft a couple good corners early like Booth and Coby… and have them learn under fire. It was o virus they needed to rip the D apart after 2 straight games without a Bills punt lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a superbowl team before this signing. A fluke? Neither team had a D that game. It was horrible… wasn’t flukey but it was terrible D.. you could say Tre White back there it doesn’t happen or Miller gets to Mahomes next year would change that!! But definitely not flukey, just like my Pats stunk it up on D against the bills (in a much more amazing way lol) the bills D showed no fortitude against the Chiefs.

So by inference, Miller will make the players on the Bills DL better, right? If he’s being overpaid by giving him the money that used to go to Hughes and Addison, that’s still a subjective opinion that’s going to be governed by results. I don’t think you can make that claim based on the comps in this FA period. If 3/52 is the going rate for Chandler then it’s the going rate for a guy like Von too. Running an argument one way but not the other diminishes the point. Sort of like mixing metaphors. It bottles the mind. I fully understand your point. Let me try to unbottle your mind. I overreacted to the signing. I just saw headlines of 6 years 120 mil without knowing the details. My mistake. Several here have justly made that point. Some nice and professional others not so much. As I've stated I don't hate the signing. My eyeball test as stated before doesn't see Miller as elite but 2021 statistics show that he is. So it's probably safer to say my eyes aren't seeing things accurately. However, stats can be deceiving. It remains to be seen how good he will be as a Bill. Hope that helps Edited March 17, 2022 by newcam2012 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbbillsfan Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I’m sorry if this has been answered… I see the contrast is essentially 3 yrs $53 million. Chandler jones got 3 yrs $52.5 million. Which contracts structure is more team friendly and hoe does Vons extra years work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
