Inigo Montoya Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Jerry Jeudy Amari Cooper Elijiah Moore David Bell David Njoku Nyheim Hines Jerome Ford Not a bad stable of pass catchers. Behind what should be a solid o-line, and having had a year to knock the rust off, this is a put up or shut up season for Deshaun Watson.

I know they traded for him, but Jeudy hasn't really done anything on the field to warrant this kind of $$$. I guess it's the Browns being the Browns again. this is why you draft a wr in the first Edited March 19 by NoSaint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 1 hour ago, BADOLBILZ said: What fans should take away from this is the importance of positional value in the draft. That's what a 25 year old WR with the *potential* to play any of the 3 receiver positions but who has still only averaged just a bit less than 800 yards and 3 TD's per season is worth on the open market. The WR the Bills draft in round 1 could have a market value in excess of $30M in year 2 and then you at least have the option to pick up his 5th year at a set price or use it as leverage to extend his deal with some savings. If you fnd yourself warming up to the idea of using your first round pick on a center like Jackson Powers-Johnson or a safety/CB like Cooper Dejean........just don't. quoted just in case anyone didn’t read it the first time. The pay scale is soooo big in this consideration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffblue Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) What a terrible deal to give to such an undeserving player. Cleveland is a joke. I would be breaking stuff if the Bills gave out this contract Edited March 19 by buffblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills spent the last 4 years or so just quietly striking out looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 4 hours ago, FireChans said: It's an extension. Jeudy had a $13M hit this season for his option. They probably extended him with the trade to bring his number down. They also had $31M rollover from last year, partially because Watson's contract was structured to have low cap hits first two seasons. This year, his hit balloons to 60+. They are -47M over the cap in 2025, which will increase with this extension. The Browns had already restructured Jeudy’s contract and added void years so that this year’s cap hit was minimized. I’d wait until the details on the contract come out before judging. People wigged over the Winston contract because they saw that it was $8.7M for one year. Except it was actually “up to $8.7M” and really only a much more reasonable $4M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better be put up for the Browns sake as they are on the hook for all of Dr. Feel Good’s contract. My bet is they are in trouble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the $41M gtd is all new money outside of the 5th year option already in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
