How are these two not restructured yet? Especially White who is just stealing money at this point. Of all the guys it should be these two who restructure.

I'm sure they're next, you'd think.

Restructuring involves paying a guy's salary upfront as a signing bonus, right? Maybe there are plans that don't include one or both of these guys being Bills this season?

You know a restructure doesn’t mean that White gets less money, right? Do you think they want to push all this money down the road so we are completely screwed in 2 years? You see how much Diggs will be getting after this season.

The Bills don't save any money on White's contract if it is "restructured".
It just changes the names of Salary and Bonuses.   
He ain't offering to take a pay cut.

restructure does not reduce a player's salary. It accelerates salary to this year in a conversion of salary from this year and future years to a bonus paid now. So doing a restructure, results in Tre stealing money faster per your post point on him.

For Tre they need to see if he recovers before doing an extension which will spread the cap hits out further like they did w Milano. And possibly then reduce his salary as they see his talent level fully recovered post acl.

No he does not think, otherwise there would not be so many stupid threads started by @mixum.  He is a real Troll. 🧌

Exactly.    Although to be fair, all these "restructures" "extensions" "guarantees" can get confusing.
If you ever took accounting classes in college, Book vs Cash gets a lot of people to change majors. 

NOTE:  Diggs Cap Hits in 2024 is  $27.5 million, $27.5 million in 2025 and $28.5 in 2026.   
Those are big Cap #s for any Wide Receiver.   No way to escape them either.

they can restructure or trade him or extend him or add void years etc etc. There are ways. Some more expensive than others and may hurt, but they manipulate the cap every year. Key is if cap keeps rising fast to absorb these cap hits.

Exactly who is it that you think works in the Buffalo Bills general managers office on this site?

you realize we can’t just restructure everybody because at some point those bonuses have to be paid less they have waivers or loopholes in their contracts. I’m going to guess a superstar like white is not going to do that. Ip

Salary Cap is projected to go up significantly next year, due to gambling, increase in TV revenue and a renegotiation of owner/player split in revenue.

Basically sign as much talent to long term deals now as they will be bargains in the very near future.

I am not saying get crazy with paying guys but....I would extend Josh Allen's contract by 4 more years ASAP....you get him signed reasonable now it will open up spending later when the cap is crazy high.
