Sean McDermott, Become Emotional When Promoting the Buffalo Bills…
Though the club will appear very different the next season, the Buffalo Bills will still be vying for a Super Bowl in twenty-four years.The Buffalo quarterbacks are around $51 million over the salary cap limit, per Over The Cap There isn’t much leeway, even though Josh Allen’s contract can be easily restructured to cut that number in half for Bills general manager Brandon Beane.
Leonard Floyd, a defensive end, is regarded as the best possibility to join the market out of the team’s 22 prospective free agents. Last summer, Buffalo signed linebacker Floyd to a one-year, $7 million contract, considering him a steal. Floyd is expected to sign a two-year, $16.2 million agreement within the next twelve months.
Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic stated, “The Floyd signing produced a member of the squad that starts every week and leads in sacks this season with 10.5. Floyd, who is 31 years old, surpassed Greg Rousseau as the team’s top two pass rushers and quickly established himself as an essential member of the defense.
With just one sack in his final seven games, Floyd did, however, slow down toward the end of the season. With his length and pass-rushing acumen, Floyd can still have a significant impact. He declared he wanted to play for a team that was a contender for the Super Bowl and was going to accept the opportunity for wealth.
After the Bills’ postseason run came to an abrupt halt, Floyd expressed his desire for the bag quite bluntly. Floyd stated, “For me, I’m always going where the money goes,” according to Sal Maiorana of the Democrat & Chronicle. Though it’s not how I would choose to be here. It is an enterprise. I’ll go where my agency thinks we can make the most money, in his opinion. It won’t come from Buffalo either.
It’s expected that the Bills will lose more defensive ends this offseason than just Floyd. As the Bills’ third-best pending free agent, Buscaglia ranks A.J. Epenesa, the team’s second-round selection in the 2020 NFL Draft. Epenesa is also anticipated to possess free agency due to financial limitations and his inability to meet desired outcomes.
Even though Epenesa’s playing is still inconsistent, Buscaglia observed that on certain plays, his good speed and power combination renders him unblockable. Whatever the case, Epenesa, who will turn 26 this season, has the kind of profile that makes teams chase after him in free agency. He has only played part-time the previous two seasons but has already earned 13 sacks. Unexpectedly, he might receive a larger a binding agreement.
