I think Poyer and White alone is like $16M in savings. You're telling me those other guys add up to about $50M in savings? ...am I missing something that wasn't included in these tweets/OP? EDIT: I'm a moron....he meant "it cuts $25M into that $40M over", not that they will have $25M in space. Carry on.

Green Ghost Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Take the over 10 1/2 wins with Buffalo this year, and prosper. They’ve got Allen, and they’re going to beat Miami for the division again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy2020 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 6 hours ago, extmenace said: The last two years were where the bills window was opened its widest. The josh Allen contract is kicking in now, the big cap numbers start now. Allen is gong to be restructured and open up cap room for them. That's why his and Mahomes contracts were considered "team friendly". When Tua and Dak get paid, he won't even be paid in the top 10. They can basically add cap whenever it's needed with his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have one, you don't have anything, and handwringing over any remaining cap spending and saving is pontificating about dogshit (not that I don't still participate in it anyway). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TuscanyTile2 Posted March 7 Popular Post Share Posted March 7 11 hours ago, FootballLove said: I believe Buffalo's window closed in April of 2022, when they passed on Breece Hall. Buffalo has come so close and needs that one player to help push them over the top. That one player is Breece. And they had him in their clutches! Could you imagine Buffalo with Breece? That really might've pushed them over the top. Luckily we have him. Hopefully we can do something while we still have him under contract. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost like someone has talked about this over and over again about how easy it actually is to fix your OL, its just that JD sucks donkey balls.

Hopefully we can do something while we still have him under contract. Yes I can. Their offense would be unstoppable, especially in 2022/2023. No defense can stack the line due to Josh Allen's arm, giving Breece huge run lanes all game lone. Scary. But they blew it. Breece would have become the face of the Bills. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulrich Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Jets may/will face a similar situation when it’s time to pay Sauce, Garrett & Breece. And to a lesser extent Jermaine Johnson. Another reason last season’s flop was such an enormous missed opportunity. Nor is it ideal this regime is under win-now pressure. Otherwise perhaps JD would attempt to sign one or several said Jets studs to long-term deals spreading out the cap hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesr Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 We’ll keep it low key for now, but Buffalo and Miami can both take big steps back next year and are strapped. New England has limitless cap space right now.

Green Ghost Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I play golf in a Tuesday league with 3 guys from the Buffalo area, in fact my next door neighbor just sold his steakhouse in Claremont. I’ve never heard them bring up Breece Hall once. They’re pretty happy with their team, albeit frustrated as hell they can’t get the KC monkey off their back.

Oline play has precipitously gone down over the past decade for a myriad of reasons.

Time will tell if Allen is stabler or moon I think they will break through eventually, provided they keep Allen healthy. Allen is just so talented and they have a good GM who should be able to continue to put a strong team around him. The thing I would worry about would be him getting hurt at some point. He makes so many plays on the ground for them and takes a lot of hits. They have to keep him upright. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
