There’s zero chance that he plays at that number. It really comes down to release or pay cut. If it’s a pay cut, how much will it be? I’ve been team pay cut but I’m leaning towards release. You can sign Mike Evans for the cap savings of releasing Knox.

Knox was a very effective player last year. I think he's one of those players who has gotten better with age.

I think he's been good to very good the entire time he's been here.  Where I think he's become better is his availability.

He’s a really good player and has a role. Even with pay cut, I can’t see a $10M+ cap hit on a 2nd TE. That is especially true with Hawes on the roster plenty capable of filling a lot of that role. Knox is a luxury. You could cut him and bring McGovern back for that cost (for example). It’s a matter of what else you sacrifice to have Knox on the team.

This one was an obvious one. I’m curious to hear the news on Knox (whatever that might be). 

Yeah that’s the big one.  Tyler Higbee just re upped with the Rams for 2 year's 8M (4 per season).  Higbee is 4 years older.  I’d reckon Knox gets an extension that keeps him in Buffalo for 3 more years at around 6-7M per year, although i’m  hoping that number is less.  Beane takes care of his guys, often too much so

I honestly liked the signing but the guy could not stay healthy, like at all....

 

At the same time I feel like they were forced to sign hin because of diggs wanting out.

 

 

Loved the signing too. It looked perfect on paper. I thought Curtis Samuel would be our Deebo Samuel-lite. Despite the injuries, Brady wasn’t able to get very creative w/ a versatile player like him when he actually was on the field.

Hope Curtis doesn’t stub his toe on the way out

He doesn’t have toes anymore

It's a shame he didn't work out, I had high hopes and liked him prior to the Bills signing.

Agree! This is one of the more disappointing signings I can remember.

Agree, signing at the time made sense.  I mean in his 5 years as a healthy starter between Car and Was he averaged almost 800 total yards a season.  Felt like a nice speedy complimentary piece.  But he just couldn't get on the field enough.  We saw some of his potential in his first years playoffs though, but health issues again this year.  

 

This was a move that had to be done, and was expected.

I'm curious if there was more to it than just being injured. There's probably more to the story of his ghostly usage on the Bills.

I get this and don't necessarily disagree.

But when Kincaid gets hurt, we would very much be SOL. And I say that as a huge fan of Hoss.
