i'm allowed to disagree with the majority around here.........just like you guys are allowed to wash TD's balls daily.......sorry if you hate to hear it, but that's just the way it goes........ as for kendall's contract, you do realize he counted only 660K on the cap in '04, right?? don't give me this garbage about how we couldn't afford him.......it's just another excuse.........

why would big pat do any favors for the bills after they ignored him for 8 months? TD never even made an attempt to sign him, treating him like garbage........PW and his agent deserve no blame what so ever.........they did what they had to do........what were they supposed to do? wait until TD finally picked up his phone and rang? he had 8 months to do that and never bothered..........

it's called "market value".........funny how other teams can pay that around the league and go the playoffs, but around here "market value" is looked at as a negative and any GM who coughs up coin is a fool........yet, we sit on the outside looking in.........

and god knows they are never wrong in their talent evaluations of guards...... ex. see pete kendall and his pro-bowl caliber season with the jets..

it's not about the "24 hours of free agency"........it's about letting big pat and jonas get to free agency without even an offer in the last 8 months.......despite the fact he stated numerous times that he "wanted them back"..........it's no wonder they jumped on offers so quick -- it was obvious TD didn't want anything to do with them and treated them like garbage........ but wait, everyone told me i didn't know what was going on behind the scenes then too.......that TD was probably working on a deal in the background........that big pat would come crawling back........that JJ would find a "bad market" and not get anywhere close to 5M a season....... same old story with TD.......looking to go for cheap, 2nd rate talent and downgrade the lineup of a non-playoff team........ but if you guys are happy with this, to each his own.......i disagree with the strategy, and i will continue to.........

and some of us just like to make excuse after excuse for TD........

right.......just like the only reason PW and JJ left is because they're greedy.........and the only reason mike wahle and marco rivera aern't being pursued by buffalo is because they're too expensive........it's got nothing to do with TD downgrading positions by being cheap.........

i understand that..........at very decent money.......so why didn't we try to land him?

so why isn't he signing a guy like andruzzi??

truly is a shame.......we could really use him.........

why is he "too much $"?

i don't think there is anyway he can come back to buffalo now.......it's gone to far and he needs to go.......bringing him back would not be good for either side.........

doing nothing for the sake of being cheap=TD

wahle, mayberry, and rivera would all be upgrades at LG for us........andruzzi obviously would have been as well........it's a shame none are scheduled to visit and all will likely find deals elsewhere in the next 2 days.........

they paid market value.......there trying to win, and aern't taking the cheap route........they have cap room to use and they're improving their football team.......good signing...........

on a serious note, jon dorenbos has done a great job for us the past two years (has he muffed a snap??) and is very cheap.......am i missing something here? seems like we already have a long snapper.........

Vikings | Williams Agrees to Three-Year Deal - from www.KFFL.com Wed, 2 Mar 2005 17:42:03 -0800 Jay Glazer, of FOXSports.com, reports the Minnesota Vikings have signed free agent DT Pat Williams (Bills) to a three-year, $13 million contract including $6 million in bonus money. The deal also includes incentives that could eventually reach $15 million. sorry to interrupt........continue the TD worshipping.........

if that is the case, why has he stated numerous times he wants both to return?

doesn't TD have to offer them a contract first? he hasn't even bothered to do that.........

for the millioneth time, fletch, adams, and milloy are all signed through 2006......

they've been trying for over a month.......that would be an indication to me.......

how did this rumour about 2006 free agents get started? fletch, milloy, and posey are all signed through the 2006 season.........clements is the only from that group with his contract up after this year........

has it been confirmed the bump was triggered by the pro bowl?? how do we know it wasn't just a playing time boost? mike williams received a bump and his was based on playing time.........likewise with kenyatte walker.........

believe whatever you want.........no doubt in my mind that TD has not made any effort to sign either since early last summer....... if i'm JJ & PW, i wouldn't even give TD a chance to.........he's had a long time to make an effort, and he hasn't even tried......... that isn't the way you handle players you want back.......like i said, if i'm the player i wouldn't even give him a chance now........they have watched other players around the league resign with their current clubs, read about many other clubs that have tried to work out deals with potential UFA's in the days leading up to free agency, and their GM doesn't even think enough of them to make an effort........i think that is insulting to players........

ferguson is going to the cowboys and will help, not hurt, williams' bargaing power when the terms of his deal are released...........
