Bills sign Charles Clay to offer sheet. Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News reports that it’s a five-year, $38 million contract with more than $20 million guaranteed. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/17/bills-sign-charles-clay-to-offer-sheet/
Yeah, especially if the contract is front-loaded, we won't match. So, what moves are left for us? Kinda slow since the Suh news ..
7.6 a year. What would the difference be with the taxes from what the transition tag is paying him now?
Being that I live in the Tulsa area I have watched him play here many times. Sad to see him go to a rival. If we signed him it was going to be my next jersey. Now he's dead to me.. You hear that Clay? You're dead to me!!
I want to see more of Lynch this year. All the guy did was come up for Georgia when they needed a play. Didn't matter if it was a catch or a block, he got it done. I am interested to see what he has to offer at this level.
Alright, time for Sims and Lynch to step up... with Cameron on the team we won't be missing him too much, but I think it will force us to pick a WR early in the draft.
Jeez, it's Charles Clay people! I wouldn't of franchised him either! We have Cameron, and we will be just fine without him. No way I pay him that much. Good luck Charles!
Except Clay has gotten himself to get paid all this money... with Tannehill as his QB. Sound logic.... I know what list to add you to.... --- As for Clay... I'd like to keep him. I like the player. But that's crazy money. Buffalo is insane for doing it. I agree with us for not franchising him, because even 7 or 8 million (or whatever the franchise tag would have been) is too much to pay him. Especially with his knee issues. Think about that before saying we should have franchised him. That's alot of money for him.
We didn't franchise him because we didn't want him! That's stupid money for a average player! Sent from my 6+
I like Clay. I don't love him, and you have to really love him to pay him that. The team played it the right way. Buffalo is being stupid with their money. I'm not gonna say that I hope Clay plays poorly for them.....but I hope they really end up regretting this and it backfires on them. As others have said, Clay is a mid tier TE, and he's getting paid like an All Pro. Just like I would oppose paying Lamar Miller as if he were Lynch or Murray a year from now, I'm cool with the team not paying Clay that much. Apparently, their offer was 4 years at about 6 mil a season with 15 mil guaranteed, and thats what I figured he would make.
Glad you can prove that... Are you done here now? You got yet another senseless, clueless, factless shot in on our QB. Congrats. Moving along.. nothing to see here.
Well that kind of sucks, I am/was a fan of Clay but at the end of the day its an business decision for him. I hope he doesn't burn us too bad when we play buffalo and if he can give us a few dropped TD passes (like he did for us) then it will go along way in the healing process. Lol. Good luck "Big Play" Clay
