billybrew1 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Gentry vs. Hodgins vs. Kumerow vs. Stevenson vs. Austin is going to be an epic battle. It’s got to be tough to be one of the guys below that group… I hope all that competition produces a superior player. And that’s IF we decide to keep six WRs… I’m hoping it is a fast guy that makes it. Someone to take the top off the defense. I guess Stevenson or Austin. Although Hodgins is interesting as a always open big target. I read today a quote from Knox. Saying how big and huge Howard is. He makes Knox feel small he said. I didn’t know Howard was that huge. I sure hope Howard is a great blocker…. Knox also said Howard is a worker. That’s good…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergie's ire Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 12 hours ago, Doc Brown said: Right. Reid Ferguson and Andre Roberts are the two that come to mind. I don't remember them ever doing it in June though. Strange. Yeah, this is a bit different than that situation, though. Ferguson and Roberts were cut when they had to get down to 53 because they had players they could put on IR and bring back later, as long as they were on the original 53. So, they cut Ferguson and Roberts, got down to 53, then put the players on IR and then re-signed these players. Because they were vets they didn't have to clear waivers and they had a gentleman's agreement to re-sign once the spots opened up. As another poster mentioned this one probably has something to do with number of years and/or what percentage is signing bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 This is the type of accounting that you find in successful businesses: saving money by manipulating the same numbers. Although the great ones do it right the first time. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did he agree to a paycut or was he already making the vet minimum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has not shown up on cap sites. Players have done this before, taken a pay/restructure and usually Bills guarantee they will be on roster for a year but nothing guarantees it following year.

Quote He suffered a right ankle injury as the result of a Panthers defensive player falling on the back of his leg. This required a cart off and an end to his night. Several days later, McGhin reached an injury settlement with the Bills that resulted in his release. Quote In November, McGhin was picked up by the Panthers and placed on the practice squad for several weeks before getting activated for the last quarter of the season. He appeared in two games before suffering yet another ankle injury against Washington in his first game. He is injured against Panthers, given an injury settlement and then played for Panthers before another ankle injury. He has potential but needs to find some way of avoiding ankle injuries whether be stretching, training or awareness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk don’t seem to realize that vet minimum is top 2% income in this country on an annual basis, the guys not hurting in any fashion, especially when one considers that the median/average income in America is in the neighborhood of $50,000.00 a year…, Go Bills!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
