Bills | Hangartner contract details

Wed, 04 Mar 2009 14:17:17 -0800

Updating a previous report, Mark Gaughan, of The Buffalo News, reports the Buffalo Bills have signed OG Geoff Hangartner to a four-year deal. Hangartner will make a $1.9 million base salary in 2009, $2.35 million in 2010, $2.55 million in 2011 and $2.8 million in 2012.

4 years/9.6 million

:confused:

I think he was worth that to us. Shame to lose him.

Don't underestimate the power of opportunity.

He probably wants to start, he won't walk in week one here over Kalil starting Center. Even RG he'd have to battle for here.

Probably. Remember how his agent stopped talks with us before FA began? Makes you wonder if getting a starting gig was the line in the sand.

At that price we definately could've kept him, I agree though that it was probably more about opportunity than money for him. The real question is how the hell did Frank Omiyale get 4 years 12-14 million with one career start :confused:

HE was quoted as saying he will be earning more in this contract that he ever imagined to see in his entire life. Pretty sure that he has some nice bonuses tied in there. In addition almost everyone has confirmed that it was the starting role that he was after and that the money was an after thought, it seems unless we could of granted him to start at RG we never stood a chance at retaining him.

yea. It sucks that we finally got line depth and it all ran away from us as soon as we got it. The challenge now will be whether Maguzu can keep turning these guys like Schwartz and Bernadeau into solid depth, ala Dante Scarnecchia.

Hangartner probably knew his best fit was at center anyway, and that position is firmly within the grasp of Kalil. I thought he was better there than guard.

I guess being a starter was worth more than the money?? Im confused

yes.

he wanted to be a starter. wasn't going to be one here. he went somewhere that he could be. he will never know how good he could be unless he is given the chance. in buffalo he gets that chance. good for him.

no one likes to be behind the lead dog for long.

Considering Omiyale got 14 million for 4 years from Chicago and had one start in his career, you can count on the fact that Hangartner got more than that with all his starts and experience. I expect with his signing bonus, any roster bonuses as well as incentives likely to be earned, he will get closer to 4 or 5 million per year.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
