    Can the Bills afford Mario, Marcell, Kyle, and Jerry

    Mario's contract cap hits the rest of the way: 2015 - $19 million, 2016 - $20 million, 2017 - $16.5 million
    Kyle's: 2015 - $5.85 million, 2016 - 7 million
    Marcell: 2015 - $8.06 million

    Right now, I think the key FA at the end of this season are Jerry Hughes and CJ Spiller.

    For what he did since he came over, Hughes can easily command $10+ million a year in a multiyear contract. But the big elephant in the room is Marcell. I don't see how the Bills will ever let him test FA, regardless they extend Kyle or not (probably not). Now you are talking about 40+ million tied up to a starting D Line alone. ot sure that's possible in managing your cap.


    Then we have Spiller that the Bills admitted already in talk about an extension...

    we'll see how the year ends.

    JJ Watt makes Mario look like Kelsay
    Hackett doesn't know how to use Spiller
    Hughes is awesome.

      Add Spikes to that list too.
      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
      "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
      You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
      It was all
      true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
      He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
      mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

        I like Spikes, but starting Bradham, Alonso and Rivers/Brown is not a horrible thing.

          I think they're grooming Brown to take Spikes job.

            Well as long as they never find a franchise qb they'll always be able to afford everyone else.

              we are like 20-40 million under the cap right now... i don't think we'll have any problems.
              My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

              MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

                And we have an owner with deep pockets that is not in it to make money.

                  Fitz's contract comes off our books next year..........that should free up some coin.

                    I think Brown would go outside and BRadham inside

                      I think so too, but Spikes brings a nastiness and intensity that has been good for our team. Would love to keep him in the fold somehow.

                        Yeah, about 7 million for Fitz and another 10 million for Stevie Johnson alone. The Bills should have a ton of cap space to be aggressive in free agency next year. That's why I don't think giving up the extra first for Sammy is such a big deal.

                          Do we really need to re-sign Spiller? Outside of the occasional burst or kick return he seems ineffective.
                          True fans want wins, not draft picks.

                            If Spiller accepts a moderate contract I think the Bills should sign him. He sucks ass in pass protection but he is not being used correctly. Hackett is a terrible coordinator. Bills can easily afford to sign all these guys.

                              At 3.5 mil why not? Throw some screens to the guy and he's worth every penny.
