Seems way way off to me. I'm shocked on how bad this is. The Bills will regret this signing. Maybe I'm missing something. He's one of the best pass rushers of the last 20 years, and is still playing at a high level. You might be missing that part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe refrain from hot takes until you find out what the deal really is. Apparently that kind of patience and is beyond many on this forum. On Twitter and here. It's absolutely mind boggling to me how many fans don't understand even a little about how these contracts work. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 So how many times do you think Beane's wife rejected him before she finally said yes? Lol. Every big name player we've brought in after failed attempts prior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocCityRoller Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Cool, seems like a lot of cash, but will depend on the numbers and built in escape clauses as Von Miller ages. Happy they moved on from Jerry and Mario. Will want to compare contracts for Jones/ Von Miller and Z Smith for the first 3-4 yrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninChicago Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Ok I will admit it now. That unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for head faking Tyrod back in 2017 was BS. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 4 minutes ago, Ross Murdock said: Monster deal!! Bills on the move. Hopefully he can also have a positive impact on Rousseau and Basham. 6 years seems excessive. We've been saying Jerry Hughes is getting old for 2 years. He's the same age as Miller!! Bills better win this year, as they'll be scrapping nickels next year. id bet the back end is not expected and there primarily to spread bonuses out.

But their interest in von Miller goes back to last year so I think he was their top target. They tried to trade for him at the deadline. Probably their number one choice. Wonder how much they really wanted Jones? Most likely the backup plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 13 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: This pleases me. Fills the biggest need and reduces the second biggest need (corner). Sends the right message to the locker room and the rest of the league. Puts the Bills on the prime time / media map. Raises expectations for everyone (myself included). Rights the wrong that was the 2011 draft. Shows that Beane and his team can close. Beane finally drove the Porche out of the dealership. He opened his first credit card today. Regardless of whether it works (some don’t), this was a major step forward for OBD. Yep............and these aren't the deals you regret if they don't work out. They didn't get close to the full 7 years out of Mario and it was still one of the best long term deals they've ever done. Bryce Paup........similar. It's about impact............now close the deal on the Lombardi and it's an absolute Lombargain. This is basically a 3 year $52M deal............not gigantic for what should be the 3rd or 4th ranked individual game breaker on the team. 6 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patzen Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Hmmm...LA hosting Buffalo to start the season just got a little more interesting. I wasn't expecting that to be the matchup but this signing makes it pretty intriguing. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 5 minutes ago, Process said: Lmao relax buddy. Breathe. Was obviously in shock when it all started breaking. That's exactly what I'm saying, There is absolutely no need to post your instant thoughts (and expose your ignorance) every time an announcement is made. RELAX. BREATHE. Take a bit to gather facts. Then post. What's hard about that? Do you think other posters simply can't wait to hear your hot take? I don't mean to just pick on you, as there are many many others in the same group. You ask "What am I missing?" I think it's obvious what you are missing. The facts/details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Am I the only one that remembers getting excited at the Senior Bowl in 2011 when Von Miller had a Bills hat on? This was a long-time coming. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muppy Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) the other guy who just be working overtime lately is Overdorf. HE is integral to how these deals get structured and made work from what I gather. @Tuco what say you mate? any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks man. m Edited March 16, 2022 by muppy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW82 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 120M for a 33 yr old who I thought might have been done last year before getting traded. Somebody hold me. 2 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
