Seems pretty reasonable. Are we sure it was actually Buffalo that signed him?

I feel like in coming years its going to be very smart to wait past july first with most cap space spent by teams and get some deals

The AAV is a touch high, but for a shorter term I would pay that premium any day.

Buffalo seems to be making solid moves this year.

We could definitely be upgrading the roster right now with $5-7 million in cap space.

When you look at the top 60 it’s kind of scary how many guys are over 7. Some terrible deals there as well.

Skinner, Ekblad, Giroux, Voracek, Ryan.

Make Johnny and Mony look like paupers.

Hayes's deal is so brutal as well. Other than Ryan in terms of AAV, it might be the worst

Great deal, solid defensive responsible vet who can fill in as a 2/3C. Nice term too.
