If not I'm fully confident it won't be very difficult to replace His OLine versatility I would assert is hard to replace. I think he was underutilized, i cant blame him for looking around. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 17, 2022 Author Share Posted March 17, 2022 Too small of a sample size to really know his value. Draft a Guard please. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have given him the higher tender... Vikings don't have any cap space either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 lol a poison pill contract to a guy who has started what 5 games in his career? I doubt it. Just means we'll bank the 2.4 million back and sign another guard if he decides to leave. He's a decent player but lets not Ryan Groy this and he's out of the league in 3 more years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Yea I'm not sure if Bates is a Kroemer guy he may have just benefitted some from a different style of play/coaching. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I expect him to command anything exorbitant, but it can definitely be structured in a way that's too pesky for the Bills to "match." But, how are compensated if he signs?

TheBeaneBandit Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Getting to block for the white Kirk Cousins....nice. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Bills have set up contracts so they can convert salary to signing bonuses when needed to get more cap space. That was a big part of how they structured Allen's contract. 4 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: Yea I'm not sure if Bates is a Kroemer guy he may have just benefitted some from a different style of play/coaching. Bates has shown he is very versatile and learns new schemes very quickly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Ford? If you have a good starter on the oline, keep him. Don't roll the dice. 13 minutes ago, gonzo1105 said: lol a poison pill contract to a guy who has started what 5 games in his career?

He has shown flashes his entire time here. Every time he has filled in for someone he has done a good job. Then, when he had the chance to start he did very well. He's a solid starter at least. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
