This plus Von and Josh puts the Bills around 24-26 mill under the cap. With the ability still to restructure Trey, Dion, and Steff…something is brewing 🤔


Also, just a hunch, but based off Oliver’s deleted tweet, I think the Bills tried to lock him up on the cheap.  If so, will be interesting to see how that plays out with his 10M cap hit.

Are these void years or a legit extension?

It should probably be brought up more that the Pegulas are the main reason the Bills went from laughingstock to contender. Moves like this can only happen because they give Beane essentially a blank check to use up front cash to push cap spending into the future. For this reason we will never be in serious cap trouble until the day Josh Allen retires at which point we'll take a couple years getting things under control and then be right back in it. Having cash-rich owners is a cheat code.

Well said.  The Pegula’s deserve recognition for the fact they will spend whatever it takes on the team.

I wonder if Milano takes over the headset duties if we lose his buddy?


He’s obviously capable but I think his best play is worrying about himself per sé. Dude is a dog, definitely a lynchpin to the D. Letting him, hypothetically, just play is when Milly is at his best.

That’s where I think Kim matters most. Being a Buffalonian cannot be overlooked. She understands the bond between city and their team.

This makes me think with even more certainty that Edmunds is gone. Those two years at the end are where Edmunds' biggest cap hits would have gone if we extended him. No way we are going to be paying over $30 million per year total for our off the ball LBs in 2025.
