Rigotz Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 2 hours ago, Aussie Joe said: They are -1 with free agents already acquiring 3 and losing 2… They need to lose 2 more to get a comp pick… that’s assuming they don’t sign anyone else which I ‘m still expecting another one more signing at least .. Correct, and the problem with signing Singletary is you take one of our few available Free Agents off the board. It is very, very possible to get back in the positive by strategically signing only players who were cut or traded. Meanwhile, we need these guys to get contracts from other teams: Singletary, Roger Saffold, Jordan Phillips, Jamison Crowder, David Quessenberry, Shaq Lawson, Bobby Hart.... the rest are probably a stretch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slack_in_MA Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Depending on the price, we could do a lot worse than Leonard Fournette. Dude runs hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s possible yes… but unlikely I think …I still think it’s likely the Bills make another signing themselves …still got my eye on an LB replacement for Edmunds .., and that list you quote is full of ordinary guys … I also believe that other teams can wait a few weeks and none of these players will count right? They are all depth guys so why wouldn’t you just wait? Hope I’m wrong as we haven’t had a comp pick in the Beane era and this would be a third round..

wppete Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 7 hours ago, NewEra said: Fournette makes sense- not sure about 3M, I’m thinking we can get a RB for 2M Yup, $2m is a great price. I like him as a short yardage, kill the clock back. Still runs hard. But we would have to use more of Hynes as a RB and hopefully Cook keeps getting better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 8 hours ago, Royale with Cheese said: One bigger body back said about himself: "If you need 1 yard, I will get you 3. If you need 5 yards, I will get you 3." That's Fournette to me now. Might not be such a bad thing (if he can actually get you 3 when you need 1 yard) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) Haven't really watched him for a while. If he's still as solid as his stats seem to indicate, I'd welcome him. But I can't see them spending much money on an RB like that. Money might be the thing which would send them elsewhere, IMO. EDIT: yeah, as WPPete says above, I'd take him for $2M.

Players who were cut don't count against comp picks. Losing Tremaine will get us a 3rd round comp pick if we play the system right. 5 hours ago, Rigotz said: Correct, and the problem with signing Singletary is you take one of our few available Free Agents off the board.

Ask about me see y'all real soon" Most likely just Diggs promoting a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll get you a yard Unlike some fans who think Singletary should return, Diggs is pushing for us too sign this guy. 235 lbs and runs a 4.5 forty, I guarantee teams will not have LB'S running backwards at the snap of the ball and we may even see play action. No DC is worried about Singletary and his average YPC is only because because give up those 12-15 year runs because they are focused on the pass.
