Thinking more like 2-3 million 3 with heavy incentives would be the absolute floor to me and i'd be surprised if it were that low. Poona Ford got 2.25 himself. And you have to keep in mind, even 6m looks low for a high end FA pass rusher. So the agent may not be rushing to leak numbers even at that amount. Jeremy Fowler reported that Floyd was the most sought after Pass Rusher and many teams were involved with one team beside us "heavily involved". So he had a market. I think in compared to most high end FA Pass Rushers, it will be a bargain. But barely above league minimum would be shocking to me. EDIT: It just came out that it's a 7m dollar deal worth up to 9. That's about what I expected. And probably uses up anything we saved on an Oliver extension. Edited June 5, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sean McDermott wins it this year and we miss the playoffs for 3 straight years and then miss it a few more times over the next 7-8 seasons…Bills fans would be happy? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a perennial contender Much more fun and exciting. One of my Bills buds said to me today, pretty stoked about this signing and the defense.. Here we again ! Thats a good thing in his meaning .

Neo Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 8 hours ago, Nextmanup said: Skip the pass rush stuff; it doesn't translate enough to wins and losses. Protect the QB? Hell yes. I'd spend every dime on offense and just look to be league average at every position on D. No pass rusher has ever won a championship for anyone. Not a quibble … but Lawrence Taylor? Reggie White had three sacks in XXXI, including a game ender. Von Miller was a Super Bowl MVP. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. Beane said from day 1 his main goal is consistency. This is a guy that got a 4 year 64 mil extension in 2021, 16 mil per average with 33 guaranteed. He got released because they're in full rebuild mode. This dude is borderline elite pass rusher. As expected, he turned down more $ to come here, as Rappaport said. If it was any position on D besides edge , I'd agree with that guy but a great pass rush is the main way to shut down these offenses. Luckily we also have a top 3 secondary, so I love love love this move. I was shocked we landed him for that price, he wants another ring and I'm sure Von was in his ear big time behind the scenes. This is a grand slam signing by Beane and has by far been his best off season yet. Our top 3!!! O improved at literally every position besides QB, C and LT We are loaded.
