Dion Dawkins restructured- $7.8M cap space

[One Buffalo]

Wonder what the corresponding move is?

 

 

EDIT- sorry all... I missed that this actually happened a week or so ago, just saw it from Spotrac today and thought it was fresh.  Feel free to merge with the original discussion.

Being compliant with cap rules and not getting fined, is the move. 

 

Also having a little change on hand for a rainy day if/when needed. Wouldnt expect much.

[Bills!Win!]

Probably another punter

With out most recent performance on Defense, I am not thinking Beane is gonna let that go on for too long... 

[Senth]

I think they might be signing L.T. practice squad depth at LB don't yah know.

This is old news and it was needed just to get under the cap.

Signing LT would be awesome even at his current age he would play better than some these guys!

STOP! This was needed to have operating room during the season, and has already been covered here. Go Bills.

Trading 3 1st rounders for Jabrill Peppers. Bishop and Rapp had a bad practice yesterday so they think we need a safety.

if we see another ***** performance by them I think Buffalo needs to start looking at trade options. By all accounts, the Bills are all in this year. They had no problem grabbing Cooper when their offense was sputtering. I really think Beane could make a move for a Safety

exactly my thoughts...  and literally, he could go saftey, DT or even corner depending how the injuries are panning out... but bottom line is he isnt gonna stand long for this... I would also say the players know this restructure happened... they have been served notice.

In a creative effort to make cap room, salaries are being altered to give players a percentage of stadium concessions.  Remember fans, it's not a hot dog...it's an investment in your Buffalo Bills. 😁

So now, get the best cornerback you can get, even if it is in a trade, and ditto for a safety.

 

Leave no stone unturned-- all rosters, all practice squads, CFL, prison yards..

Too late... Chiefs called dibs.

old news - cap needed for current season IR, PS and roster elevetions etc...

new news - hope they included a specific bonus to keep Dawkins getting overly-emotional during  Jets game per usual and loosing focus with stupid penalties.

And it won't cost much either. Which is wild, because usually that kind of action costs extra

He has an issue with an ankle rehab situation and this is why teams are staying away.

There was a thread in this week or two ago. 

 

The correspondence here is to have money for low level roster moves due to injury, paying the PS guys and being under the cap.
