Is Leodis Going to be our highest paid CB?

[Marvelous]

Was noticing that Derrik Fine & Corner signed & Butler extended(WOOT!) And i wass thinking how Nate Clements & Winfield both left after their rookie contracts(NC TAGGED), That sucks because we grrom them to be elite & it's somewhere else.....But i'm curious to what Leodis McKelvins contract will be like....I imagine it will be alot higher then Whitners because
-it's 2 years later
--It's a more skilled position

---So will it be 40 something mill, or in the 30's?
--I just hope it's ATLEAST a 5 year deal..6 would be awesome but i think the CBA doesn't allow it.. So lets hope it's a 5 year deal...

--Seems all our high paid guys are on their rook contracts

A few of us have noted exatcly what your talking about... Our guys earn a big pay day and we wont pay the going rate... then they leave.

I will say it over and over, its not what we think they are worth, its what the league thinks they are worth. Hence the term, market value.

Anyways, I dont know the specifics of the McGee extension, but yes, I think McKelvin is very likely to be our highest paid CB.

I hope he helps win us 5 SB's in a row too.

Who holds out longer? Mckelvin or ,gulp, Hardy?

Neither Clements nor Winfield were "elite." When the Bills see a guy is worth the money, they'll spend it. If McKelvin proves to be better and more consistent than Clements, the Bills will re-sign him.

Winfield thus far is proving more than Clements at this point. Prioleau hasn't been anything great either. Solid, sure, but elite? Nuh uh... But sometimes you don't need to be elite to be good. It's pretty bad how much players are being overpaid...I shudder to think at what kind of rediculous money is going to be thrown around in the NHL come tomorrow at noon.
