They knew about this failed drug test and opted not to upgrade their WR corps. Can't say I feel sorry for them. Who Johnny going to throw the ball to?
-
I don't think they go TE. EJ has enough targets now. That said, we now have an explosive group of receivers, so will need someone to throw them the ball when EJ is injured. With 3 injuries last season, plus an off-season surgery, it's naive to believe he won't be injured at least once next season. They've mortgaged their future by having no 1st next year, so draft a semi-project QB now as insurance. A good GM would have a contingency plan. That, or OT to help protect EJ.
-
The agent he hires will speak volumes about his intentions. If it's Parker, package him up for shipment before the draft - just to make sure everything works out for him, like it did for Byrd. I agree. A 2nd would be wonderful, but perhaps a bit too optimistic.

The Forbes value means absolutely nothing. The value of the Bills will be the price the winning bidder pays. Nothing more, nothing less. On a different note, I don't know the details of the lease, but wouldn't it actually allow a move to Toronto? I believe it says the Bills have to remain in their current market and thanks to Russ, it could be argued Toronto is within the Bills market.

Jacobs Family front runners?
Saint Doug replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would also bet they even had inside knowledge of Ralph's health over the last 6 months and, like you said, were working under the understanding the new owner/group (who've they also known for some time) would want a new stadium. Otherwise, why all the interest in a new stadium when no one publicly is asking for one? -
Houston looking to trade 1st pick (Buffalo?)
Saint Doug replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sure, I'd give up a bunch of picks for JJ Watt, but as far as I can tell, he's not declaring for the draft. As for a player "like" Watt? If we have the ability to identify such a game changer, then sure. But until then, the highest likelihood if identifying a true game changer is through the QB position. -

Saint Doug replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There's only 1 position you move up to the #1 overall for…QB. Clowney is not a player you sell the farm for and we have been improving our defense all offseason, so moving up for Clowney would make little sense. -
True. He was a great man who we should honor for bringing the Bills to Buffalo, but every Bills fan would be lying to themselves if they weren't thinking in the back of their mind "what's going to happen to our team?"

Report: Bills express interest in Kenny Britt
Saint Doug replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is Titus Young still available? Wouldn't mind the Bills kicking that tire. -
Michael Vick visiting the J-E-T-S - NOW SIGNED!
Saint Doug replied to K D's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm kinda upset that Pettine left again. I would have loved seeing his attacking D total demolish Vick twice per year (or not, depending on how early he gets injured). Here's hoping Schwartz can do the same. I want Vick to be the meat in a Williams sandwich. -
Spikes confirmed visiting OBD. Confirmed Signed
Saint Doug replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So, he can leave in a year after proving himself? Why not lock him in for longer? Plus, anyone can live anywhere for a year, even a place one publicly denigrated on numerous occasions. But thinking about it a bit more, it may have been the Bills pushing for the 1 year deal. He's high risk, for sure, and Peppers knows the dirt. Plus, it's a relatively cheap deal. -

Saint Doug replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, I'm not that excited about this. At least a 2 year deal would have been better. Makes you think he really doesn't want to be here. -
So, I guess as long as we're not playing good teams he'll do just fine. With us not making the playoffs in I can't even remember when, sounds like a great pick up.

Bills Free Agents Updates
Saint Doug replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Geez, that feels like forever ago. Nearly 15 years ago. I'm pretty sure since then we haven't sniffed the salary cap. Graham played for the Browns? Never knew that.... -
Bills Free Agents Updates
Saint Doug replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, considering the Saints just dropped $10 million on Byrd with supposedly very little cap room, I guess $15 million must be a fortune to spend. If your capologist is doing their job, any signing is possible. It just depends on the way your structure the contracts. That said, I can't remember the last time the Bills had to worry about fitting under the cap, so all this is a moot point. -
I'm mad as hell & I'm not gonna take it any more!
Saint Doug replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Let's be real. It has been proven time and time again that signing FAs to mega deals usually doesn't work out in the NFL (with exception of QBs). Based on the money given out, it's nearly impossible for the player to perform up to his contract. Do you think the Bills FO was completely blind to annual occurrence? If Russ can give out a huge contract for a big name player every blue moon, it's worth it in the long run because it puts butts in the seats and stops fans from complaining (which puts more butts in seats). $100 million is actually a cheap price for what Ralph gets in return. -

Saint Doug replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm pretty sure this was the real reason for the Williams signing - an argument against people thinking the Bills don't sign free agents or that Ralph is cheap. Russ Brandon will get to ride this wave for at least another 5 years. -

This can't be your first Bills offseason. You know the first few days of free agency fill even the biggest Bills fans with a sense of dread. Around this time someone usually points out that the Pats are usually never active and references the Skins. This can't be your first Bills offseason.

Rashard Mendenhall retires at age 26
Saint Doug replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, but you think you do though? This actually would be a non-story if this guy didn't spew out idiot garbage during his day. NFL players "retire" all the time, the majority of which are likely under the age of 26. Why all the fanfare with him? It's not like he was a decent player. Arizona probably told him they weren't going to bring him back, so he realized he sucked and quit. End of story, much like hundreds of NFL players. If his intent was to "just disappear", why didn't he do just that. This is not the last we hear from the attention whore. -
Rashard Mendenhall retires at age 26
Saint Doug replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Opinions? If I wrote some of the garbage he has spouted out over the years on here I would have been banned a long time ago. His "opinions" border on hate speech and are offensive to the intelligence of the human race and the whose loved ones died in the WTC. As Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan said in regards to Mendenhall: "Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. But they are not entitled their own facts" Whether you agree with it or not, he's a role model to impressionable youth as well as a representative of his team and the NFL. -

Saint Doug replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's anything but. Remember, he's found himself in trouble multiple times for the boneheaded things he has written. Let's see...his defense of Osama bin Laden, the US government orchestrated the 9/11 attacks, the way the NFL treats its players is equivalent to the slave trade, his defense of Michael Vick's dog fighting scandal. The list goes on. You still impressed with him? -
Geoff Schwartz OG - Bills are interested
Saint Doug replied to MClem06's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Your daughter is safe, I just Googled it. So basically this is a non-story and in terms of its accuracy, it should be valued less than any random guy posting a rumor on this board. -
Geoff Schwartz OG - Bills are interested
Saint Doug replied to MClem06's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Isn't this the same guy who claimed Merriman got busted with steroids at the Canadian border? He's still allowed to put his thoughts into words?
