SHOULD the Bills pick up Dalton Kincaid’s 5th year option?

there are dozens of TEs on the market every year we can pick up on a cheap 1 or 2-year deal who will actually play in the games and offer similar production. (Noah Fant (1 year; $2 mill) Allie-cox (1 year; $2 mill); A Hooper (1 year; $5 mill)).

Mo Allie-Cox has 59 yards receiving this year and a career high of 394. Which he did 5 years ago.

 

if you think you’re disappointed in Kincaid, imagine how Denver fans feel about Noah Fant. He was going to change their franchise at one point. 

 

we’ve reached terminal Kincaid hatred when we’re acting like there’s no daylight between him and Mo Allie-Cox…

Beane will probably sign him to the largest tight end contract ever.

Largest contract ever. Five years five hundred million fully guaranteed.

the best ability is availability. guy is always hurt. in off-season he needs to really get that knee and hammy looked at.

[BullBuchanan]

He's a good-not-great player who is highly injury prone. I'd prefer they trade him rather than get saddled with a large contract on a guy who never reaches his potential.

I’m hesitant to bail on what little top tier receiving talent we have, but I just can’t hand out yet another big contract to someone I can’t count on to be out there on game days 

The 5th year option on a low paying position that is critical to our success is a no brainer.  Sure he’s had injuries.  Who hasn’t.  Look at SF, Detroit, The Ravens, etc.

[Billsatlastin2018]

He’s good.

He’s glass.

 

NEVER…. a long term extension!

[TheyCallMeAndy]

5th year is an easy 'sure,' but history is full of talented TEs who can't stay healthy and therefore floated around team to team. 
 

We will need to see some steel in year 4 and 5 to warrant any kind of extension. 

[Aussie Joe]

They aren’t making the call now on the 5th year  ..

 

But I would expect at the appropriate time they pick up the option … it’s two thirds what they are paying Knox and Palmer who will both be gone in 2027..

 

No early long term extension though …he needs to improve his availability before that happens …but the 5th year provides them a bit more time and to move away from Knox which is likely this offseason 

[Walking Tall]

Yeah, they should pick it up but I wouldn’t consider extending him unless it’s a very friendly contract to the Bills.

Depends on how you use those guys. But we need guys that are available.

The Bills Little Players offseason production will be 'The Glass Menagerie', by Tennessee Williams.

[Buffalo Ballin]

Nah. He's too skinny.

Coleman sighting!

Kincaid is really good but he’s injured and unavailable a lot . I guess you have to roll the dice and give him another contract.

[gobills404]

5th year option? Absolutely. But a long term extension should be dependent on how healthy he is in years 4 and 5.

[HappyDays]

Yeah I would. He has the talent. You just have to hope he shakes the injury bug. I think it's worth the risk for less than $10M.

None of the above. 
 

Id trade him. 
 

And Josh

[ChronicAndKnuckles]

absolutely. The Tight ends look phenomenal. Why give this team another weakness ? build on what you have. 

[QLBillsFan]

Yes 

[EmotionallyUnstable]

I didn’t see a brace on the knee today? Maybe it was precautionary, helping the hammy heal?
