Both Price and Reed signed heavily backloaded contracts:
Price: $1.6 million (2007), $2 million (2008) and $2.8 million (2009) plus amortized bonuses
Reed signed a 4 year, $10 million deal- he made 600k in 06 and 1.25m in 07, meaning there is still $8 million in salary and $1 million+ in amortized bonuses due to him.
(Clump, help me out if any of these numbers are wrong).
So, we're looking at going into 2008 with approximately $8 million tied up in a pair of #3 receivers fronting as #2 receivers.
This draft is fairly deep at WR so don't be surpised if the Bills go with a WR early- it's time to start preparing for the departure of at least one of these guys.
