  1. I think this is a brilliant move. While nobody around the league was looking, the Bills locked up their QB position for the next few years...and without breaking the bank. In the hit and miss world of backup QBs the team has a not-so-old veteran, with a seemingly great attitude, who can help mentor their young starter. Well done!

  2. What’s amazing to me is how these organizations seem to think these QBs will change when wearing a different helmet. They don’t! EJ looked like the exact same guy in every game I’ve seen since he left Buffalo. Fitzpatrick is bound to throw the pick in the crucial 4th quarter drive. Tyrod won’t throw the ball at all. And Peterman....well, you know.

    remember all of those very serious Bills fans who protected this guy until the bitter end and beyond? practice squad of arguably the biggest tire fire in the NFL. fun stuff. funnnnnnnn stuff. 

    And all of that happened before the season even ended. From opening day starter to practice squad of the Raiders in just 12 weeks. Nice!

    I don’t spite Shady at all. I would have traded him for pretty much anything because he isn’t   a good player any longer and his production doesn’t justify his cost.

     

    Shady was a great player but we can all see he has lost a step. And for his style of play, losing a step is more impactful than it would be for a North/South runner.

     

    Also, by not trading him and committing to him as a key piece for next season as Beane did, the offensive unit is being set up for failure. Expecting an old RB who can’t get it done to be a key cog will leave a gaping hole when it falls apart.

    You and I agree on the basic facts. But... the decision facing the front office will be what can they get for him now, not what could they have gotten for him last summer. Based on this season I doubt anyone will offer much at all, and if true, I’m saying they might as well keep him. They aren’t short on cash.
