Brennan Huff Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/blogpost?blogname=cleveland-browns&id=12293 Looks like we'll be competing with Cleveland again for a free agent. If we don't end up signing Clay then releasing chandler would make the FO look pretty silly Quote

That Aud Smell Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 They may soon seek solace in the no guaranteed contract refuge of the NFL. Fair. But cap hell and dead money are still concerns. Quote
Brawndo Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 @MikeGarafolo: Bills interested in former KC TE Anthony Fasano after team cut Scott Chandler. Fasano could visit Buffalo if he doesn't sign w/ the Titans. Quote
Brawndo Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) @JosinaAnderson: Source: The #Bills r expecting to continue their visit w/ Percy Harvin today. Scheduled to be picked up around 8:30am & return to facility. My useless prediction he signs with NE Edited March 12, 2015 by BRAWNDO Quote
Samson's Flow Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Nobody felt the need to mention that the Bills signed Tyrod Taylor? Rex Ryan said it was a done deal on 590 the fan in Toronto. Quote

TrueBlueGED Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Fair. But cap hell and dead money are still concerns. Uh huh. As Aaron Schatz said the other day, anyone saying the cap doesn't matter is really going to enjoy the 2015 Saints. You can kick the can down the road for awhile, but it does eventually bite back.

K-9 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Wynn and Easely re-signed per Ravens Insider Made possible by cutting Chandler. GO BILLS!!! Quote

You can kick the can down the road for awhile, but it does eventually bite back. I'll infer that they're a mess. Well, score one for Doug Whaley for letting Jairus Byrd [sic, sic?] walk. He was right to conclude (as I think he said he did) that spending big money at that position is not a good risk. Instead, you should devote big money to positions where it can pay a yield. Which is why Dareus is going to get a deal valued at over $100M. Quote
WildCard Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Spiller rumored to head to the Saints, who would have to cut Evan to make room for him Quote
Hoss Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Schefter: Filed to ESPN: DeMarco Murray, en route now to Philly, is expected to sign with Eagles, per source. Schefter: Dallas now calling around for other RBs. Cowboys know they've lost DeMarco Murray to the Eagles. Edited March 12, 2015 by Tank Quote
qwksndmonster Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 The Eagles flipped McCoy for Kiko and got Murray for nothing. Seems like a good exchange for them. We'll have to see how absurd Murray's contract is. Quote
Hoss Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Saints traded Ben Grubbs to Kansas City for a 5th. Doubtful we'll be seeing Evans now. Clay left Buffalo to visit Cleveland. Doesn't seem like that situation has gone well. Quote

This sort of pessimism is how I know you've grown up a Buffalo sports fan :P More likely, I think, is that he and his agent are leveraging the multiple team interest to extract the largest deal possible.

I'm thinking that the Bills are no longer so sure that they can structure a deal that Miami won't match. They still might try but by waiting and checking their options they also force Mismi to account for Clay's transition number plus they stop the Dolphins from executing their plan B This sort of pessimism is how I know you've grown up a Buffalo sports fan :P More likely, I think, is that he and his agent are leveraging the multiple team interest to extract the largest deal possible.

If only they could be that devious with the Patriots. Quote

Seeing as the Bills were likely planning on front-loading it this year, combined with Dareus' impending extension, you're probably right that they're going to have a hard time structuring a deal Miami can't match.

If they sign Dareus to a similar deal then they could make his cap hit low in year one to fit in a bit 2016 hit on Clay. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 If they sign Dareus to a similar deal then they could make his cap hit low in year one to fit in a bit 2016 hit on Clay. And then the restructuring and whatnot we've done this year will really sting in 2017. Don't think there's a particularly good answer right now. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Saw Murray's deal at ~$40M with ~$20M guaranteed. $6M less guaranteed than what McCoy got. The two players are the same age. Murray is actually a bit older (born in same year). Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Seeing as we've struck out on guards (seemingly), anyone have any interest in signing a center like Wisniewski and moving Wood back to guard like when he was younger? I'd find this appealing, especially if we miss out on Clay. Quote
