Quasi-Rumor: Lavonte David and Bills

Re: Quasi-Rumor: Lavonte David and Bills

So would I. Which is why extending Edmunds (for the right money....like Joe B. projects, $16M APY with a $7.92M 2023 cap hit would be a no-brainer and the smart move.

Lavonte David would be an expensive band-aid and Edmunds was better than his last season, and still have upside....David is on the downside of his career.

I know you don’t agree, but as we are going to see in the next couple of weeks, Tremaine Edmunds is going to be a hot commodity and IS going to become one of the highest paid off-ball LB’s in the NFL, as he deserves.


Money talks and bullcrap walks. The money is going to do the talking.

I don’t think anyone here disputes he won’t get paid…but the rest of us believe he’ll be moved outside.

Cowboys are reportedly the team all over Wagner, so you would have to outbid them.

That's a little surprising considering they've already got Clark in the wings to replace Vander Esch.

Sportrac has the market values at:
Edmunds - $11.9M/yr
Edwards - $11.9M/yr
David - $9.7M/yr

Wagner was on a 5 year $50M contract.

The article I posted referenced that Edmunds may try and push the market and ask for around $20M/yr, Edwards will likely go in the mid teens I'd bet. Wagner and David could be closer, but I think you can get David at sub $8M per year where you probably need to be close to $10M for Wagner.

Not nearly as much as you thought, this might be the deal of FA.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Bears have agreed to terms on a contract with T.J. Edwards. It is reportedly a three-year deal worth $19.5 million with $12 million in guaranteed money.

Wow…that seems like a steal. Shame we couldn’t get in on that.

For sure would have been a great replacement for Edmunds and saved us a lot of money and an upgrade.

Well the Bengals resigned Pratt for 3 years and $21 million. Two off the ball LB's going for $6.5-$7M per year could hurt Edmunds market. If he comes back cheaply enough, I'm not opposed to resigning him. He looked improved last year and with a new DC who knows if he could reach his full potential.

I don't think Tremaine is going to get what he thought on the open market. Not when guys better than him are signing for those numbers

This scares me, maybe it drops all there prices and we can sign Wagner. I really can’t stand the thought of watch Edmunds for 4 more years.

As long as they add a starting caliber LB then I'm good. We can't just lose Edmunds and replace him with an average LB.

I edited my post after this one. I really can’t stand the thought of watching him anymore. I really haven’t disliked any player this much ever.

Sure we can AND have the same results. Edmunds was at best, an average MLB in a 4-3. If he gets moved to the edge in Chicago, he might live up to his huge contract v

That did not age well.

The report was that Edmunds asking price was $17M APY (too rich for the Bills)....Chicago heard that and said...”how about $18M”!!!

Good for him. Way too much money, but it's not mine so I don't care
