HappyDays Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 This is all happening too fast for me to process. Poyer gone, Douglas restructured, Neal gone. Beane isn't messing around about the cap. I love the moves personally. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Matter_What Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Well I can't say this a boring day... Seems that Beane wants to do everything today. Another surprise imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerBillsFan Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 We have to not only be under the cap this time next week,but have money to sign anyone IF we actually do out of the gate. I would guess he had a time limit to agents on his take it or leave it deals / restructures, and today was it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Beane seems like he's making the necessary moves. I'm pleasantly surprised, aside from the sentimental aspect with Poyer. (even though it's the right move) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Matter_What Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I love this provided Beane doesn't plan to find another player to replace him. Just draft 10 rookies and fill the roster with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're going to have to do something with Taron Johnson's contract this week....probably a contract extension. He has a $12M cap number right now.

CNYfan Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Taron and Neil came in together, same draft. This might be heresy, but I felt Taron was losing a step last year. He was beat quite often, I don't want to prolong his contract. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEBills Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 These were the easy decisions. Tre and his 6 million savings will be next, Harty and his 4.1 million savings too, maybe Morse and his 8.5 million worth of savings or a Taron and/or Dion extension too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was not great much of the first half of the season and think the older he gets the less time he'll see on the field and result in over paying him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but I think the Bills will want to keep him around rather than release him for the $7+ million cap savings. He did play better the second half of the year so it’s one of there better options if they need more space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBFL Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 That’s crazy that cutting ties to our All-Pro starting safety Poyer saves the same amount of $ as cutting a core ST’er. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iraq Vet Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I love this.... Poyer gone, Neal gone, Hines gone, Hyde gone... don't drag it out. Rip the band aid off!!!! Clean up the cap now. We are old and slow in safeties. This does not mean these guys are not in our hearts forever... but we need to get aggressive to clean up the cap.... Constant restructure and extensions will have to come due eventually. Sorry, but we have ton of draft pics and we were quite old. Kelly, Thomas, Reed and Smith (among others) were all getting old and expensive so over 2 years we got rid of them all. We have been through this before... except Josh is still here with a top flight TE, WR, RB, 2 LBs and a solid OL.... all in or near their prime.... and Josh is not Todd Collins. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushypeaches Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 You just can't have a ST'er making that much $ knowing that they offer nothing in terms of depth to the team. Yes, it's nice to have those guys but they become a luxury when you have to start paying your star QB Tyler Matakevich can wave goodbye too 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally as great as he been, he's not the true big nickel this defense needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
