I can’t see the Eagles making him the main guy. I can't see the Eagles spending that much cap space on two relatively premier FA RBs Just now, Blank Stare said: Beane is up to something. Far too quiet with that Edmunds money freed up. I’d guess that he has another tandem signing brewing similar to Smoke/Bease and Howard/Von last few years that they’ll announce around the same time. They were already over the cap, so I'm not sure that money was "freed up". But with the restructures and such they probably have ~ 35M in space. They ain't done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waller may be shot but maybe getting away from McDaniel will make him feel better Right - cuz Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall = super bowl....

Roundybout Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 15 minutes ago, C.Biscuit97 said: I believe it’s worth the risk but fans over look age and injuries way too much. He’s 30 and has missed 14 games the last 2 years. also, I know Jones had a breakout year throwing a whopping 15 tds. But he had a 1st round TE in Engram who just had his best season of his career not playing with Jones and his second best season was also not with Jones. Good risk but hardly a slam dunk. I’m not sold on Jones in the slightest. Wow, I didn’t know Waller was 30. Thought he was more like 27 or 28. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly must know he wants big money. His injuries scare me a bit though he stayed healthy in a contract year. Also, that scheme is very rb friendly. Would he do that well in ours?Good player but is it that big of a need to invest a good amount of money in? Rbs shouldn’t be this hard to find. JMO though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fool me twice...... Yet another example of the Bellichick coaching tree. I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

I got him in the last round of my fantasy draft in 2019, and kept him in 2020 for a 17th round pick. He had some substance abuse issues growing up and in his first couple of years in the league. Injury wise- he has a history of knee, ankle, and hamstring issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 17 minutes ago, Allen2Diggs said: I think we will probably wait for the dust to settle and sign some discount free agents at safety, receiver, and linebacker. Even after the restructures, we only have ~$15 Million in cap and still have a rookie class to sign. I think Beane has been historically reticent to pull the trigger this early in FA, when teams are much more likely to overpay. but correct me if I’m wrong: Didn’t the Allen and Miller restructures alone create $16mil in cap space, and then the Milano, Settle, and Hines deals create even more?

Dude is smokin crack- sanders is the exact guy we don’t need, due to price (not talent). Not that I’m advocating trading for ekeler (I’m not)….but I’d rather give up a 4th rd pick and pay ekeler than to pay sanders. If we’re going to pay a RB big money, he better be a super star.

And once those injuries start piling up, it can end real quick. See Poyer, Jordan. Really good player but when you make a bunch of money (or want it), struggle to stay healthy, and lose a half step, your market shrinks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bates, McGovern and Sanders, we’d be bringing the PSU band back together. Bring in Nick Scott, KJ Hamler, Amani Oruwariye, Trace McSorely then draft Zach Koontz and you really get the band together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sort of extension could be hammered out? 3 years 18 million fully guaranteed? Everyone is devaluing the RB position and I get that to an extent....but look at KC and PHI Both teams have 2-3 good RB's and that's not including their QB Ekeler is an excellent back, but isn't Cook supposed to become that type of RB? Hines is in the same fit. Buffalo needs a chain mover who can run inside and take hits off these lighter guys IMO. Should find that in the draft. If Bills want to address it in FA then get Jamaal Williams from Detroit with a nose for the endzone and can run inside and outside.

The Bills have little money invested into the RB spot, and the one high end talent they have is someone who tops out at 15-20 touches a game both running and passing. So yes, Sanders is someone they'd want to invest in, now that they've upgraded their IOL. They need a RT ujpgrade, and if they get that, it probably elevates the OLine to well above average.

I never understood that. Why do you have to wait for the dust to settle if you are just going to sign mid tier to lower tier players?

Yes, but we were already about $16 Million over the cap, and then we signed Matakevich, Dodson, Cam Lewis, Sam Martin, and Ike Boettger. I'm not sure exactly how much cap we have after all of that, since the full contract details haven't been released for all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
