BuffaloBillyG Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 (edited) Well deserved for both guys. Think they have something good on the right side of that OL as long as Brown stays healthy. These bumps are NOT counted on the salary cap FWIW. Edited April 1 by BuffaloBillyG 4 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 (edited) Does that come off the cap now or is this accounted for some other way? Either way, this is one of the things the NFL does pay wise that makes some sense..........pay the guys who play. Bernard is on there too....the Bills with 3 of top 17.........what do the Beane detractors have to say about this?

GASabresIUFan Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Benard also made the list at 777K (No. 17). I wonder how much Benford received? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that's only like $450,000 after taxes. Then another $45,000 for his agent. With the stadium being built, will Bernard be able to afford to live in Buffalo with additional taxes? Could he afford the PSL for his family? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubes Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Are there rules about how much you can specify for these bumps, or is this a potential way to manipulate the cap to some small degree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 They need to reduce the rookie contracts by a year with a 4th year option for first round picks. Extension talks can start after two seasons. It's too brutal of a sport to have to wait four years just to get your second contract if you vastly outperform it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Well deserved Torrence was a very solid plug and play guard, I loved the pick when the Bills made it (he was considered by many to be the best "pure guard" in the draft and he fell to pick 58) and he delivered massively improving the guard play of this team along with McGovern. Brown went from being one of the worst starting RT's in the league in 2022 to a very good RT after a shaky start in 2023. Bernard starting was thought to be a joke and he proved to be the real deal. All 3 earned those extra dollars with strong on the field play. 3 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: They need to reduce the rookie contracts by a year with a 4th year option for first round picks. Extension talks can start after two seasons. It's too brutal of a sport to have to wait four years just to get your second contract if you vastly outperform it. If you are vastly out performing your contract teams typically give you an extension offer after year 3. If a team is picking up your 5th year option (which aren't cheap) they probably are going to be willing to resign you after year 3 unless you are on the bubble of being good but not great which is a rare instance. I have no problem with the 5th year option given that most players won't have to play out more than 3 years to earn an extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo Montoya Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Good teams build through the draft. Great teams maintain through it. Hopefully Beane will continue to draft well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastport bills Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Don’t be surprised to see the O-line be better with Torrence, Brown in their 2nd season together and McGovern and Edwards being better than Morse/ McGovern combo. I believe Cook and Johnson will have great numbers rushing the ball and Samuel being the best gadget and dump off player we’ve had. With one or two impactful receivers from the draft, our offense will be hard to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
