Beerball Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 According to Drew Rosenpuss Shockey 'very interested' in playing for phins
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Owens never opened his mouth in Buffalo. Come up with another comparison, that one doesn't work. And, by the way, the point of this exercise is to no longer be a losing team. You do that by getting players who help you get better. Excuse me but I beg to differ. Terrible Owens railed against Trent Edwards and promoted Fitz so that he could pad his #'s. Sure TO caught and dropped more passes from Fitz then Trent... but the outcome for BOTH QB's was dismal LOSSES.
Beerball Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Excuse me but I beg to differ. Terrible Owens railed against Trent Edwards and promoted Fitz so that he could pad his #'s. We remember things much differently.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Remember when... Jauron announced Edwards will start against the Titans, having reclaimed his job after missing two games with a concussion. And then Owens' hip began bothering him during the team's day off on Tuesday, and he noted that the receiver was feeling "very uncomfortable" when he arrived for meetings on Wednesday. It's unclear how Owens was hurt, because he practiced on Monday after the team returned from a four-day break following its bye. Some words don't need to be spoken

Owens was a cancer on this team and he's likely the reason for our continued bottom scraping. Matter of fact, I think he set this franchise back 10 years. We should only recruit players who don't speak to the media or tweet.
Green Lightning Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Excuse me but I beg to differ. Terrible Owens railed against Trent Edwards and promoted Fitz so that he could pad his #'s. Umm, to quote the man, "no, not really."
NoSaint Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 According to Drew Rosenpuss Shockey 'very interested' in playing for phins I was going to post lastnight that this was making the rounds with people that know shockey- but didn't have a link so I let it go. I think he'd take less to make going there work. He loves the place. Spends much of the offseason in Miami already. I remember being concerned for distractions going there for the superbowl. I believe he makes it happen, for a modest price too. It'll be a good deal for both sides.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Why do you choose to believe he was a saint when he wasn't? Did TO help the Bills win any games? Did he try harder with Fitz than with Trent YES HE DID. BODY LANGUAGE I've seen TO give up on plays with Trent as QB, but not so much with FITZ. Watch the game tapes again. back to the thread subject Tight end Jeremy Shockey took and passed a physical with the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. It is not known if Shockey, released by the New Orleans Saints this week, and the Dolphins are negotiating a contract. Last season, Shockey made 41 catches for 408 yards and three touchdowns in 13 games.
3rdand12 Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) Sounds like we are not pursuing him. and March 3 is not far away. i have heard nor read anything from Buffalo about looking at our tight end position lately? Edited February 25, 2011 by 3rdand12
HalftimeAdjustment Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 OK, you're right. Owens was a cancer on this team and he's likely the reason for our continued bottom scraping. Matter of fact, I think he set this franchise back 10 years. We should only recruit players who don't speak to the media or tweet. Tweeting causes receivers to drop the ball, I thought that was a well-established fact.
12Kachy Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Do you have a better suggestion as to what the Bills should do at TE before next season? Graham Harrell perhaps? Um, Wait to see if Zack Miller hits FA. The Raiders are going crazy signing their players to big time contracts. He may make it to FA and would be a long term solution instead of Shockey. If the raiders or someone else signs him, Shockey will still be around and then grab him. Right now he needs to wander around free. Tweeting causes receivers to drop the ball, I thought that was a well-established fact. Yeah Right on, trade S. Johnson NOW!!!!!!! Wait um what?
aristocrat Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Shackey to Panthers interesting choice with shockey known to be vocal in the huddle which could kill clausen's development. could be a homerun or a disaster
Captain Hindsight Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 interesting choice with shockey known to be vocal in the huddle which could kill clausen's development. could be a homerun or a disaster Pretty sure thats already dead...
truth on hold Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Pretty sure thats already dead... Actually this most likely means theyve decided to stick with Clausen, and surround him with better talent, especially a target against the blitz. This almost certainly means they will draft defense at #1, only question is who.
truth on hold Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I hope you're right as I dont want him on the board when we draft.

The Bills aren't pursuing name guys in the prime of their careers because they just don't believe in it.
