sfladave Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Who would be significant upgrades for us? I'd like to see 1 top notch FA OGs and 1 top notch OT. It may be addressed in the draft but we obviously need DT help so a top notch FA DT would be nice. I'll be the 1st to admit though that I don't know the majority of these players potential. 2006 FA OGs Player Type 2005 Team Bob Hallen UFA Chargers Corey Hulsey UFA Raiders Fred Weary UFA Texans Grey Ruegamer UFA Packers Jonathan Goodwin UFA Jets Kris Dielman RFA Chargers Kyle Kosier UFA Lions Montrae Holland RFA Saints Ray Brown UFA Redskins Reggie Wells RFA Cardinals Scott Kooistra RFA Bengals Sean Mahan RFA Buccaneers Stephen Nea UFA Patriots Steve Hutchinson UFA Seahawks Terrence Metcalf UFA Bears Tom Nutten UFA Rams Toniu Fonoti UFA Vikings Tutan Reyes UFA Panthers Tyrone Hopson UFA Lions Vince Manuwai RFA Jaguars 2006 FA OTs Player Type 2005 Team Adam Haayer UFA Cardinals Anthony Clement UFA 49ers Barrett Brooks UFA Steelers Barry Stokes UFA Falcons Bob Whitfield UFA Giants Chad Slaughter UFA Raiders Courtney Van Buren RFA Chargers Ephraim Salaam UFA Jaguars Ethan Brooks UFA Cowboys Jeff Backus UFA Lions John St. Clair UFA Bears Jon Runyan UFA Eagles Jordan Black RFA Chiefs Kevin Barry UFA Packers Kevin Shaffer UFA Falcons L.J.

Ramius Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Hutchinson will be franchised. No way the 'hawks let him walk. People here need to start thinking in reality. We WONT have our pick of the listed UFA's. Other teams DO re-sign their own players from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander is MVP, he will be rewarded with a very nice contract. If they can't sign Hutch, he will be franchised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our team lets Pat Williams walk and just about everyone else. Hell we probably will let Nate Clements walk. No wonder we suck so bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Also, the Steelers arent in great cap shape to re-sign their vets, and a certain Antwaan Randle-El is up for UFA this season. Not saying its a priority, but you KNOW Mularkey would love to get him into the fold. If we're going to run idiotic trick plays, we might as well run idiotic trick plays with someone who's decent at them. I think if Moulds gets released, Randle-El is the guy the Bills will target to bolster the WR corps. He's nowhere near Moulds level as a starter, but could fit into Mularkey's wacky offense.

gonzo1105 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 The one DT I want us to sign is Ma'ake Kemoeatu from the Ravens man is a beast in the middle he weighs 350 and is sort of an unknown becuase this is his first year starting. He would come pretty cheap and be able to start and keep people off London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJPearl2 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 DT:- Damione Lewis - Grady Jackson - Kindal Moorehead - Larry Tripplet 557665[/snapback] Is Craven Moorehead available? If not, we should look at Heywood Jablowme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Don't think it would end up being quite that high 557675[/snapback] It would still be somewhere in the neighborhood of 17 million though, thats taking into consideration the RFA tenders and any escalators that might kick in (Obviously none of them know the specifics for each player, but I seriously doubt Losman's contract has a 4 million dollar playing time clause...TD was bad, not THAT bad). I'm just saying releasing those 3 vets is 12.5 million dollars off the cap in savings. And thats using Clumpy's numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think even you trolls would have more to do this time of the year than bottom-feed on our board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying releasing those 3 vets is 11 million dollars off the cap. And thats using Clumpy's numbers. 557683[/snapback] I do think that all 3 of them are gone. Once that happens, you're right: lots of money for Marv to go on a shopping spree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfladave Posted January 6, 2006 Author Share Posted January 6, 2006 Don't think it would end up being quite that high 557675[/snapback] According to Clump's page if we dumped all 3 we would save: Moulds $5.522M Adams $2.125M Williams $4.907M Add that to the $11.145M we are alreaqdy under and we would be $23.692M under. It would also give us an additional $10.611M in dead cap money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What probably will happen: All of them go Bills have oodles of cash, but lose a lot with Moulds going bye-bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
