He can do a lot of the things Edmunds can do and has been overshadowed by two studs in SF. A guy poised for a breakout in his next stop. D’onte Foreman - Be a nice compliment as a RB to Cook. He can catch, runs with purpose and can pick up tough yards. I like Al-Shaair or Vander Esch to replace Edmunds. And would prefer Perine as a power back to compliment Cook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can keep that up he'd be a great addition at RG and allow Bates to go back to LG. Would cause some 1998 Joe Panos flashbacks for some though.......Former Eagles 3rd rounder of similar stature signed by Bills in UFA with high expectations to plug the RG position......

More trauma for us all to overcome 😆. On a serious note, he's my number one free agent target as well.👍 Edited March 4, 2023 by TheBeaneBandit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seumalo is a lot more athletic than Panos. How much runway they have left is similar concern though because Seumalo is a lot older than Panos was. Both had injury problems in their Eagles history.

947 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I really like Dalton Risner, he's projected at $7M/yr. I loved him in his draft year, he has the versatility to be OG & RT, and is nasty. Adding a FA like him would free us up to not be forced to take OL in the 1st if one falls, then take best available among WR/OL/LB/Safety. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein's Dog Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I think you need to list them in tiers. My hope is along these lines: Tier 1, good sized investment- OL Ben Powers, I Seumalo, M McGlinchey WR - OBJ, M Thomas, J Meyers, trade and pay D Hopkins, M Evans Tier 2 LB- Vander Esch, Lavonte David, maybe Van Noy- a good veteran LB that comes at half the price of Edmunds Tier 3 - bargain basement, picked up after the feeding frenzies - RB and Safety I'd like to see tier 1 and tier 2 picked up before the draft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Dude Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 13 hours ago, Wizard said: The Bills have a lot of players that can have contracts restructured to free up money in free agency. Based off of Spotrac, the Bills could get $30+ million under the cap. Like other comments on this board, I don’t think Buffalo resigns Edmunds, Poyer, or even Singletary. I think the only significant resignings are Sam Martin and Dane Jackson. Here are players I believe could fit the Bills budget and some needs. Realistic targets could include Trai Turner at guard, Van Noy (got trucked by Allen), but he is similar size, length, and an above average coverage linebacker like Edmunds. Guys that would cost more but could lock down a side of the OL could be McGlinchey or a DT that is larger but consistent like Dalvin Tomlinson, as Oliver and Settle/Jones are pieces likely to be gone soon. if the Bills approach free agency in this way, the Bills would then be looking most likely at a WR, and then either a safety or interior lineman I think they should resign Edmunds and trade Oliver, if I am choosing one of those two. At least Edmunds is not undersized for the position, I just don't see Oliver wroth anything more then 10-12 mllion a season because he is too small for the position. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would easier for Oliver to put on 5-10lbs than it would be for Edmunds to improve his instincts and pay him 15-20m. I can get 2 top OG's for the same cost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 12 minutes ago, No_Matter_What said: How much are you willing to pay him? Also, who are next two in line? So I'd be willing to go to $13m AAV. That is about what Laken Tomlinson got last yesr from the Jets. His profile and age was similar (I like Semuelo better as a player tho). On that number Tomlinson's cap hit last year was $5.5m. I think a similar deal is doable. I don't love the rest of the class. I like Nate Davis a bit but don't love him and he might get more than Semuelo so that's no deal for me. My second option is a trade with Tampa for Shaq Mason. They paid a 5th for him last year. They are now entering a likely rebuild. I reckon they might take a 5th back. He'd bring $8.5m with him but is a FA after the year, so you might be able to do a short extension and lower than number with some up front Pegula cash. Option 3 might be Risner from the Broncos but again I think you would have to overpay for his talent level. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Random names in no particular order: Taylor Lewan, LT (Put him at RT?) Isaac Seumalo, RG (Our big FA signing?) Mike Gesicki, TE (Big target for Josh with upside?) Rashaan Evans, LB (Cheap LB with upside on the sly?) Leighton Vander Esch, LB (Another cheap LB, smart and instinctive- don’t give me the “he don’t fit our scheme” BS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he had surgery on his neck previously. He’s had neck issues since his college days. Broken collarbone in 2020. He’s an injury waiting to happen. I’d pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
