Bills Cap Status - Approx $4.25 under cap 4/03/2024 (added roster change summary)


Recommended Posts

i'd not be surprised to see a cut but the expectation is two reworks for two players not named Josh. there could be a trade to get the numbers correct also... just depends on the players as i understand.

With adding Rapp, Trubisky etal. We are still 9 mill over the cap. I think ,b we can see more moves made, but I feel in the form of contract changes.

 

But who knows, Beanes Katana now has the taste for blood...

I believe the round of cuts are over for the time being. Sometimes between now and next Wednesday we're likely to hear about a couple of restructures. Perhaps an extension nor two. 

 

I suspect we sign a couple of our own FAs back between now and just before FA opens as well.

Happy?  While I appreciate the effort and time of the players that got cut yesterday, the moves were needed.  IMHO the moves were done a year late.

 

Too old, slowing down, injuries and big bloated contracts.  It had to be done.  And if you read my post, I think most moves to have cap room will be contract moves not cuts, but a cut or 2 won't surprise me.

Who else do you think is going to be cut from the team?

Ooooh...I really want a trade.  It loves the precious draft picks...

I'm hoping in the next CBA that contract restructuring is not allowed anymore.  If you screwed up your cap, you should have to deal with consequences. If that means you have a bunch of street JAGs to fill your roster so be it.

I don't see any cuts, but who knows. Josh and Dawkins restructures gets us about 29 mill in cap room.  That's  20 mill to start FA, which is more than enough.

 

I'm gonna go ahead and kick the hornets nest ( because I only have 1 cup of coffee so far...) and say... 20 mill allows us to trade ..... Diggs 😁

Why would either side want to sign off on that? A restructure benefits both the team and the player

 I'd rather trade Knox.

Why? It is good for literally everyone. The players get their money faster and the team gets cap flexibility. There is very little downside.

Yeah that’s not happening nor should it

I’d expect contract restructurings for Allen, and prob Dawkins and Taron Johnson

Owen rule out something being done about Dawson Knox’s contract

I am worried about disrupting the progress of the running game.  They finally built it and now center-left guard is going to be a concern until the games start and we see them succeed.

 

They have to sign a veteran DE and DT in free agency they have no choice.  I would like them to sign espenesa and daquan jones back even though jones is old and the team has made an effort here to get younger but he may come back on a team friendly deal.

Oooooh...

They haven't restructured Allen yet, right? That frees up 20+ million, I think. Ed Oliver as well.

Oliver just got a new contract last year.  Wait until the 2025 offseason to touch his contract again.

Trying to use free agency to build your team hardly ever works out. I think Brandon is doing it right
 

Get some baseline guys in free agency to fill holes players that have been in the system as starters hit on your draft picks

 

He keeps us cap compliant and allows us to have a little bit of money every year to continue to replenish baseline guys

I don't like this year's group of FA's over all.  I would love to have another 2nd round pick instead
