It's official Mario Williams is a free agent
DanInUticaTampa replied to billsFORlife50's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Those aren't exactly major loose ends. If the bills sign a high profile pass rushed, they can use the draft to get an ot and te. I don't think chandler wants to be back, but I don't think there are going to be many, if any, teams that will pay him more than us. As for the rest of that list, low priority for right now I say -

Haha, wow, never realized there was hate for peyton on this board. -

Terrible comparison. It is more like a moviegoer asking another moviegoer why a movietheater is closed for awhile. You know, like a bills fan asking other bills fans why he can't register on a message board when there is no one else to talk to. -
It is one thing to have a franchise qb, it is another to have an elite qb. Most franchise qbs can't take a team to the superbowl with no deep threat and one of the worst defenses ever.

So to answer your question, I don't know. I get the same message and just assume they don't want new members for whatever reason. -

I have wondered about that over the years myself. I only tried a few times just to view some posts that were linked from here. Usually silly rumors. And I probably have an account there, I just don't remember the email/name I used. -
Would anyone franchise Bell?
DanInUticaTampa replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Left tackle is an expensive position and bell is decent, but no way is he worth the franchise tag. Better to draft an ly and use that money grabbing some pass rush -
I still say Stevie is a number one. He isn't top in the top 15, but I would say top 20. With that said, with Stevie as our best wr and Fitz our qb, we really need more receiver help.

Stevie Johnson Contract SIGNED
DanInUticaTampa replied to iommi's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who says we are going to spend 9 million on Stevie and who says vj or desean would ever come here for 9 mill, even though desean is no longer an option unless you wanted to trade for him? -
Now Greg Williams is a cheater?
DanInUticaTampa replied to mountainwampus's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It is bizarre. -
Now Greg Williams is a cheater?
DanInUticaTampa replied to mountainwampus's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, this is the part that is pretty much fact. Without the actual money there is no rule broken. But with the money, you break a rule. And it looks like it was broken for awhile -
After Close To 15 Years of Blasting Them
DanInUticaTampa replied to Bill from NYC's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Average can look pretty amazing when you compare it to the other players we had at rt in recent years -
I don't think him tipping his hand really does much. I mean, Indy and St Louis have done more than tip their hand, they have outright said what they are going to do (or try to do) with their picks. I think this year, more than the others, it is harder to tell where he is going. He doesn't seem to be that interested in the DEs available in the top ten. He really seems to like Claiborne most, and he won't be there. I agree with PTR that they try to trade down this year. that top ten pick just doesn't look very nice this year. and if they can't trade down, then they either draft a whitner type pick and make a huge reach, or they take someone who falls to us unexpectly. I personally would be fine if we picked one of the OTs or Upshaw I would be ok with it. I am kind of worried about the draft this year. not really sure what to expect from the new guys like cook as evaluators. I am really just crossing my fingers.

Stevie Johnson Contract SIGNED
DanInUticaTampa replied to iommi's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
it is quite possible that if he tests free agency, the bills will entertain other free agents, and sign somone else, and will either decide they don't need stevie anymore (or can't afford him) and then stevie has to sign with another team, and that team lowballs him. there are so many wide recievers out there that will test the market, and the amount of teams that need one isn't very high. and to top it off, the amount of teams with cap room to pay him a high amount limits it even more. I think there is risk in testing free agency in this case. If he was the best wide reciever available, and there weren't that many free agent wide recievers available, then he would have no risk in free agency. but there are too many recievers out there, and a good handfull of them are better than he is. out of the few teams that will seriously consider him, those same teams will be considering 10 different options. him getting overpaid is highly unlikely. I don't think that risk has anything to do with stevie and his agent being hopeful of a contract extension. I personally think it has more to do with that the bills might actually use the franchise tag before monday. Before they seemed to write it off that it wouldn't happen. But now with nix saying it hasn't been ruled out, I am guessing that was brought up in indy. I am almost positive the threat of the franchise tag is what moved things more forward. but that is just speculation on my part. -
Stevie Johnson Contract SIGNED
DanInUticaTampa replied to iommi's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What about the dozen or so wide recievers that are still unsigned? The list is HUGE compared to any year. Even after the 1st tier of free agents, the 2nd tier is just as long. Why are you acting like the only free agents as of now are welker, v jackson, colston, and bowe? sure, most of those players will sign with there current team and/or get franchise tagged. but what about Laurent Robinson, Reggie wayne, lloyd, meachum, garcon, simpson, buress, doucet, Caldwell, eddie royal, hines ward, etc. Teams probably wouldn't overpay stevie if they have cheaper options in players that are slightly less productive or can get the same results by paying somone better. Then even if for some odd reason stevie is the ONLY option they have in free agency, then they STILL don't have to overpay, because hey, they can always draft one in april. Lot's of wide recievers out there and teams aren't going to have to overpay. except maybe the bills. Now left tackle.... there are hardly any out there in free agency, so a team might be overpaying for bell... but WR? gawd no. -

There are like 4-5 other good receivers that will be out there ad well -
Hahahahaha

He treats the local media like crap, but the national media he treated like gold. At least that is from reports I read.
-
All you have to do is look at previous years when teams moved up to draft a qb. If the browns or skins decide to give 2 first rounders, then the bills would have to give up a lot more than 2 first rounders since the browns are like 6 spots higher than us.
-
pretty much how I feel. I doubt that claiborne falls to us. Even if he falls out of the top 5, he won't last all the way to top ten. I actually think tampa is going to take him. every is thinking richardson, but I don't think so. He is what I am thinking how the top 6 will go 1) Indy takes luck 2) Browns take RGIII 3) Vikes take kalil 4) St louis takes Blackmon 5) Bucs take Claiborne 6) skins take richardson.
-
Same. If he is there, I am sure we will pick him. Guy is a stud and those to cbs seem to be the first thing out of his mouth when talking about the draft in general. I don't think he will be there though. And I honestly wouldn't mind the pick unless someone better falls to us. It is used to decide at ten. With all the mock drafts moat players falling to us don't excite me for a top ten pick. So I am hoping on draft day domineering really good just falls to us
