GunnerBill Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 120/6 would be Roquan money. I think that is too much. 120/7 comes in around $17m AAV.

Cheap first 2 years, reasonable 3rd year, and then you can get out. The $20M average is just the market we're going to have to get used to as fans. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not sure Tremaine is that. $18m AAV is my ceiling price and I agree - must be escapable after 3 years if required. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEBills Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Doesn’t make sense for Tremaine to have waited to sign a contract and risk injury. If he resigns it is what it is. Would prefer to put all the resources to the offense. Tremaine has played well just not elite, still only 24 tho it feels like he has been a Bill forever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uticaclub Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 The point about waiting so the team had more money last year makes no sense. If that was the case he could have still signed, had guaranteed money and it be structured in a way that still gave the team flexibility to sign Von & extend Diggs. I’m calling bull#### Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 If you are going to sign Edmunds then giving him a really long contract possibly as the highest paid per year ILB makes sense for cap reasons. 7-8 year deal with a lot of cap pushed back. 7 years $140 million. Build in outs. Keep cap low early in the contract. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contract can be whatever amount they want, but all that matters is how the contract is structured, the amount guaranteed and how easily the team can get out of the contract before the big money hits, or how easily they could restructure it. The total dollar amounts are for the agents to show off to clients, but usually there is the "real contract" within the actual contract.

Given our cap situation, I would have to believe it's something similar to this because if it weren't, most of the cap space they could get from restructurings is already gone then.

BuffaloRebound Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 If it’s really 3 years $45m, with all the non-guaranteed nonsense added to the last 3 years, I can live with that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all contracts have the contract the agents can show off to prospective clients, and then the "actual contract" which is likely to be earned by the player in this deal.

SCBills Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 6/120 would be mind numbing... 7/120, I could live with... and it might actually make sense to give Edmunds a massively long deal given how young he is. Would allow for quite a bit of flexibility in terms of backloading and the ability to restructure down the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastport bills Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 If this is true, it’s great news. Edmunds is a must as a core player in this defense. Eventually, when Frazier is gone, and we go to a 3/4 or 4/3, his skills will transition to an outside LB who is in on pressure packages. My prediction is he improves every year and is destined to be an all-pro starting next year. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
