So Leodis, Graham are to be retained.

No news on Mario restructuring. Likely a goner if anyone sees Rex recent interview.

Redoing Clay's deal will be nice, that will give us some more breathing room depending on how it works out.

It was a given that they'd convert Clay's $10M roster bonus into signing bonus.

Re: Bills restructuring 3

I didn't realize they had $4.4 mil of unused cap from 2015 that they can rollover for this season. That's good news.

I'm glad that they're finding ways to keep Graham and McKelvin. The secondary always seems to get hit pretty hard with injuries and there's no way this defense is going to get better if they get rid of decent vet DB's.

I'd like to see them extend Gilmore too. They should be able to get a cheaper deal than if they wait until next year and should also be able to lower his $11+ mil cap hit for 2016 at the same time to free up some more space.

I'm definitely not a fan either but at this point I'd rather keep him than open up yet another hole.

Just never let him return another punt.

Good news, they can use all of the cap help they can get.

WGR has 13 mill going to 6. 7 in savings.

In addition to this, we carried over like 4.2 million in cap space and got another 1.5 million from an arbitrator's ruling, on top of the cap rise. When Mario drops so deep in coverage that he's out of Buffalo, then we should have enough to sign our major guys. Just not anyone else most likely.

McKelvin is an above average corner. Glad they are keeping him. He is a good #3 guy to have, IMO

Re: Bills restructuring 3

I'm done with McKelvin. For every good play he makes a couple of real bad ones follow. He has single handedly cost us games before. I would prefer to move on from him but whatever. Just don't ever let him return another punt or kick.

I think Graham regressed badly from his 1st year here. At this point he's better suited to be the do it all back up DB rather than the starting safety. Good depth but not starting material anymore IMO.

Kudos on the Clay restructure.

Re: Bills restructuring 3

McKelvin has been a good player for a long time. It seems fans can't move beyond his past, which is a shame, because he seems like a good guy and has been a solid corner with a team friendly price tag.

Re: Bills restructuring 3

Not sure McKelvin can still cover teams #1 receivers. A challenge for #2 receivers, but should still be able to cover the rest of them. His days of punt returner is gone.
