Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

Any ideas what his demand will be because I'm all ears on this one.

A lot of teams have had less of an interest in paying MLBs high priced money so his demand could be lowered right now. Which could definitely benefit buffalo

Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

So what’s the rule, do we have to wait for the new league year or because he was cut can we go after him now or does he have to go through waivers?

Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

I'd be all over this. His 2023 cap hit would have been 12.5...Edmunds was 12.7 in 2022...and he can help groom a guy. Invaluable. Do it.

They almost certainly won't. They absolutely should imho.

He's a vet...no waivers. Pretty sure they can go after him right away but they have to stay under the current year's cap, and then be compliant with next year's when the it starts in mid-March.

Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

Rams still owe him $5M. We could back load a contract and make it doable this season.

Right?

Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

It would make sense to sign him if the can do it for no more than what they paid Edmunds last season. It would have to be a short term deal though. I don't want to risk having an older player hitting the wall while locked into a long term deal with lots of guaranteed money.

Get on this Mr. Beane.

He's a real MLB so he doesn't fit their brilliant scheme.

Re: Bobby Wagner was just released!!!

Here was his stats from 2022.

Wagner played and started all 17 games last season, recording 140 tackles, two interceptions and a career-high six sacks.

Edmunds 102 tackles, 1 interception, and 2 sacks. BTW he only has 5 int’s and 6 1/2 sacks in 5 years!

I would love to hear we are bringing him to Buffalo.
