Taron is another likely cut next year. 
 

RVD is unlikely to get an RFA tender since the minimum is over $3 mil which would be a lot for an OT4. Anderson may get the minimum tender if they think he is the replacement for Edwards.

 

Cook and McGovern are hopefully resigned soon.

I don't see Cook being resigned.  I would take Cook to significantly backpeddle on his $15 M post.

People often criticize the GM (including me) but when you see this list you realize he has a TON on his plate every year. All these contractual plates need to be kept spinning while at the same convincing the players, and their agents, that they’re each ‘critical’ to the current and long term success of the franchise. I’m guessing it’s exhausting.

Most of those UFAs are gonna be gone. 

Depends on how they do in 25 though.

In Beane we trust.   He pulls it off every year, next year will be no different.   

 

We'll be loaded.  

 

Go Bills

I'm shocked that Dawson Knox will be the 3rd highest paid player on the team next year and nothing was done with his contract.  He also carries the 5th highest TE contract number in the NFL.  This seems to be such an easy no brainer way to clear up cap space with either an extension or pay cut.

First step will be looking for a new coach if Sean doesn't get to the Super Bowl

I am hoping so... but I am interested in SVP to see if he gets more time this year...
