After a year away from football due to COVID-19 concerns, our number-four player on the list of most overpaid Buffalo Bills came back to the team and we hoped he would solidify the interior of Buffalo’s defensive line. Instead he gave up his starting spot to a player making less than 20% of his salary figure. That’s why Star Lotulelei is fourth on our list.
In the past when we’ve done our listing, we used cap hit to reflect value, but with the cap shenanigans employed by general manager Brandon Beane recently and the improvement of the databases, we’ve switched to yearly cash payments as our metric.
