Patience

Fixed.

Yeah, they've been "on pace" before. They're inconsistent, simple as that. They dissapear against real offensive lines.

Not the kind of player we need here.

They only missed the playoffs once or twice during that span.

White D-Linemen that play for the Bills suck. Leif Larsen, Tim Anderson, Ryan Denney, Sean Moran, Shawn Price, Chris Kelsey.

I wasn't old enough to see the glory years like you have. I had to grow up with the likes of these names: Jonathan Linton, B.J. Hobert, Todd Collins, Antowain Smith, Rob Johnson, Sean Moran, Darryl Porter, Ken Irvin, Marlo Perry, Chris Watson, and names of the like. My support has never wavered, and will never waver. I plan to be a STH until this team loves, which won't, as I suspect, happen for a long time.

Anything to get Kelsey out at DE.

Damn right. I plan on getting season ticks next year regardless of what happens from here on in. I support this team no matter what happens, and that will NOT change.

Raiders.

A. Because it's more legible than putting it all together, much easier and quicker to read. B. If Nate Clements says he wants to be the highest paid corner, then the benchmark is Champ Bailey's deal, which is an average of 9 million per year. I highly doubt Nate has lowered his expectations since then.

They probably will, I just don't see how.

I don't think Indy has the cap room. Look at all the deals they've handed out. Manning, Harrison, Wayne, Diem, Glenn, Simon all own pretty large deals.

Dwight Freeney is a FA.

No more white DT's.

Nate says he wants to be the highest paid corner in the league. Currently, Champ Bailey is, getting a 7yr/63 million dollar deal. Nate will want, according to him, around 10 million per year deal. That's a 2.8M dollar raise over this year, for a CB who has only made the Pro Bowl once in his career, as an alternate. You think Nate deserves this raise? Not to mention Willis McGahee is going to want a new deal soon, as his contract is up after next year. Real smart spending.

How long do those frozen dinners take to thaw in the mircowave?

We have to get something out of him. Do you realize the trading deadline is this Tuesday? We're just going to let Nate walk? With absolutely nothing in return? Marv has already stated that we will not franchise him again. Just take what you can get for him. As you can see, we're not a very "on the brink" team with a 2-4 record, and NE coming in next week off of a bye.

Pat doesn't / didn't fit our system. If you could build a good pass rush, you won't need to have as good CB's. Imagine if we got McFarland, who has experience in our D, paired with Tripplett. Have Schobel on the outside, and draft Gaines Adams in the Draft. Judging by our performance today, we'll be in a prime spot to pick him. Can you imagine that pass rush we could generate? We could have Chris Watson and Darryl Porter back there, and still be successful. We know this team isn't going anywhere this year, but if we can build up the trenches now, it will benefit us in the long run. That's why I'm in favor of this trade.

Ehh, Go Sabres, I guess.

And people expected us to get blown out, and get ugly, just like you said in this post. It didn't.

Quick question. Is Clements worth the 7.2M he is getting paid, which is what the thread is about. Factor in all his performances thus far.

Just like the game last year @ Foxboro? This game will be close.

So we're paying Clements 7.2M to cover Detroit's #2 WR?

So we don't put our "All-Pro" CB on Detroit's best WR? Definitely says something about what the coaching staff thinks of him and his "abilities".
