boyst Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 i fully expect Levi Wallace back. Surprised we let Jackson walk, though. Wallace got scapegoated in '21. I think we also save some of these conversions to bonus for the season to get money for injury signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a rework of his deal that can be done that doesn't require his permission. It just seems to be something we don't want to do. As for a Miller type thing, fat chance. Especially after seeing Ridley's contract today. Contracts including restructure options at the team’s discretion are much more common these days, but not all contracts have them and some of the ones that do have restrictions. Diggs’ contract probably does, but there’s no way to tell for sure without seeing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 10 hours ago, QCity said: You can only restructure once per season, and Josh will certainly get restructured again next year. It shouldn't have to be explained that restructuring every player on the roster for the maximum amount isn't financially prudent, and can quickly create problems in the future. Just because Beane chose a measured response does not indicate that "Pegula is cheap." There is no rule against restructuring a contract more than once a season. Nor would players or teams want there to be one. That said, I’ve never seen it done. It would point to incompetence on the part of the team - or perhaps an extreme circumstance. The Bills chose to restructure Allen’s contract to the extent they did for a reason. It is where they want it and I would be shocked if they did it again this season.

TheyCallMeAndy Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Isn’t it funny how, what is technically day 2 of free agency, feels like the action is over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people put the blame on the coaching staff, rightly. But it is true that Wallace misplayed his assignment. I think he actually got away pretty lightly with it. I'd happily take Levi back as a depth corner on vet minimum though. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immediately after the game and the short term shots were being fired in frustration in every direction. Levi Wallace bore a bunch and the team itself blamed him a lot.

Levi Wallace bore a bunch and the team itself blamed him a lot. You can understand that from the players though to an extent. They are frustrated and they know instantly who has played their assignment incorrectly. I give Levi credit that I have heard him talk about it twice since and he has owned it and not looked to shift blame anywhere else. But in terms of blame from fans in the aftermath I think he was spared because people understandably were focussed on what the strategy was from the point we scored rather than the individual technicalities of what happened on each snap. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 Translating Aaron. "multiple teams interested" = a contract many are going to say WOW and will likely be another qualifying contract for the Compensatory Formula. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Poyer deal only 1 year/$2m. So we paid more for Rapp and Lewis. Interesting they would not bring back Poyer for 1 more year at that price but think Rapp and Lewis are worth bringing back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
