The smartest course of action would be to let Gabe walk and invest in a R1 WR. Look at the Vikings with Jordan Addison, that's the model you want ideally. Maybe even double dip in the 3rd round. Regardless, Gabe is going to get a contract in the 11-15 million range most likely. I'd rather have a rookie WR than pay 12 for a guy who is way too streaky.

Low Positive Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Youse guys are going to lose your minds when the Bills resign Gabe to a team-friendly deal and draft a safety in the first round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't dispute the need for secondary. But, I do think having a REAL WR2 helps stars like 14/17 stay happy and a great offense helps a defense much. Beane's Douglas move gives warm feeling that he can swing WR2. This team needs a fast WR to marry with 17's unique arm strength. It's our competitive advantage--need to double down on it.

skibum Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 It seems like he has become less of a #2 receiver and more of a role player. But I think he is very good at his role, so if they can sign him for role-player money, I'm on board. I just don't think that's realistic given some of the high profile big games he has had. Someone is bound to give him a big payday if he hits UFA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To find a guy who can start and be productive right out of his 1st training camp is not easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe has less receptions but around the same yards, and way more touchdowns. Davis is also praised as a great blocker and Jones is not. Duly noted. I definitely have some recentcy bias. He’ll probably go off for 3 and 200 tomorrow and make me forget. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I just think it's hilarious that 40% of fans think Gabe's willing to agree to 5M or less. Options 2 & 3 are not even realistic and should be thrown out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Unless Von Miller goes to jail I don't think they can afford to pay anyone. This is kind of a moot point as they will have to go to a draft pick. Had he balled out they wouldn't have been able to keep him either. I think people are underestimating how bad that cap situation is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckyBoys Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Diggs is getting older and not to jinx the guy has been relatively injury free We need a young wr who has a chance to be able to be the #1 wr If Diggs goes down Gabe is not beating coverage as the primary #1 wr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsintaiwan Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 (edited) $7 This wasn't a poll option. But my friend who is a chiefs fan is all over Gabe. No joke. Would break the bank for him.

Nephilim17 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I don't want him back at almost any price. He'd be taking up a valuable roster spot that should go to a real #2 (either rookie with traits and production or a free agent; because of our cap situation I prefer the rookie route). And I don't want him at a number 3 or 4 also because of the cap situation and I feel Shakir can do the job of a 3 or 4 at much lower cost.

billsbackto81 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 If he can't put it together in a contract year with an elite QB like Josh, what's he going to play like when he gets paid? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0017 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 (edited) I’m watching Jordan Addison right now catching everything as the Vikings #2 WR and just thinking Gabe would drop that, and that, and that.

I think it’s hilarious that you think we believe he would sign that contract. “do you want him back for for how much?” Voting for that signifies that we wouldn’t want to pay him more than 5M.

Locomark Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 The Bills need to get a younger Diggs. They should be shooting for Tee Higgins versus resigning a lazy route runner like Gabe. Someone will overpay a Gabe and give him $13-14 per year, which is what sporttrac valued him at, so we might as well just dump him, trade Knox and then go after Higgins at $16-17 and also seek a draft pick WR since this draft is stocked at WR. We need dynamic players out wide. Even Marquis Brown would be an upgrade though Higgins runs much more of the route tree. Sherfield has been an utter waste of money so he’s gone also.

ChronicAndKnuckles Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Let another team waste their money. Sick of wondering whether I’m gonna get Randy Moss on Sundays or Donald Jones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I'd take him as WR3-5, under 5m AAV and draft a legit WR in the first that will be able to take over for Diggs in the long run. Obviously not a popular opinion but I feel like in that WR3-4 position is where he was his best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
