Donuts and Doritos Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 "March 6th, 2024... The day Beane discovered Red Bull" I think that's the quote of the day today 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always in the fight, so there will be some big deals, for sure. There might be a trade up in the first round. It could be anything. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrags Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 8 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Nope and don’t care. I will take Von on a reduced contract that is incentive laden over who at Edge Kingsley Jonathan at this point? I’m not sure I’d rather Von than anyone else (nobody in particular) but I am interested in saving money on the cap and he did that. He gets a gold star in my book for it. Could have taken his money and refused a pay cut and then went anywhere he wanted. Good on him. Why he did it we will never know. But good on him.

HappyDays Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 9 minutes ago, HappyDays said: So for seemingly no reason at all, Von agreed to give us $8.6 million in cap relief this year. This is one time where I will say Beane is a wizard. I have no clue how he pulled it off. Just insane that before even restructuring Allen's contract we have already gotten under the salary cap. Over the Cap thinks we are saving even more: Quote While there are no details on the future years of the contract, the new cap charges for Miller should be no more than $9.904 million in 2024, which represents a gain of $13.895 million in cap space for the Bills. It could be slightly more if the team added a void year to the contract. Miller’s dead money for 2025 is now up to $20.667 million and I would not be surprised to find out that the is going to void out that year to try to create a way to use a post June 1 designation in 2025 to ease the salary cap impact. The Bills are now about $2 million over the salary cap after beginning the day $32 million over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lose, they tie up more $$$. If we win, we steal their 2nd best player 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spotrac has better usability for some stuff, but OTC has better info and a very good calculator for cuts/restructures/etc. If there’s ever a discrepancy you can bet OTC has the correct info.

Right now we are only 1 mill in the hole without touching Allen or Dawkins contracts. I'm betting on a nice solid FA signing and a move up in the draft.

bills6969 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 This is some serious cap space maneuvering. how does incentives work with salary cap? Sounds like Von can earn up to 20m in incentives this year. How does that end up counting against the cap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterStrategist Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 This $$$ has to be earmarked for DL reinforcements. Von did Beane a solid, and team. That $8m can go a long way to get a couple solid players, or a Floyd type on 1 year deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are around $5.6M if I recall? And they actually factor into this year's cap hit when designated that way...iirc 10 minutes ago, SoonerBillsFan said: 100% spot on.

If we're only $1M in the hole, that means we're actually $11M in the hole until June 1, when Tre's savings actually apply. Will be nice to regain that $10M for signing our draft class and for injury insurance and/or summer spending (think Floyd last season), but we don't actually realize those Tre White savings until a later date.
