par73 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 So frustrating, especially based on initial prognosis. Must remember, they came within 13 seconds of beating KC last year and getting to the Championship game without him. Pretty empty feeling now, though.

plenzmd1 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 3 minutes ago, BillsFan4 said: Has Beane actually said that? If so, I’m not sure I really understand that thinking. You could say the same about any big money contract - if that player gets injured it leaves a big hole in your lineup. That’s not a reason to not sign good players in free agency. It’s not like free agents are more prone to injury than guys you draft/develop + sign to big money… Also, I really don’t get all the “Von’s injury suddenly makes this a bad contract” takes in this thread. It was an injury. They happen in football all the time. It doesn’t suddenly make the Von signing a bad contract. The Bills needed a true finisher on the D line. They went and signed one of the best. Does the injury leave a big hole in the lineup? Yes. But doesn’t that kind of help prove it was a good signing? While I I agree with most of your post, there were plenty of folks like me who thought giving that money to that age player was a massive risk… not because of injury, butfor me was age and probability of declining play in the next couple of years.

ngbills Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Since Beane is likely reading this... Ford is supposedly healthy - While Ford has only appeared in 18 games since the start of 2019, he's logged 9.5 sacks and 24 quarterback pressures in those games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just freaking out a bit at the moment. LOL. Point remains, though, on the injury settlement. The Bills can't make him sign anything. Injury settlements are usually done as a courtesy to players down the roster food chain to hook them up with a bit of cash on their way out instead of flat out cutting them while also allowing the team to save some cap scratch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember that awkward press conference where he retired but couldn't say it because of injury/contract concerns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
