Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 That 7 mil a year for Poz is definitely too much money. Glad we didn't go there. Isn't it $7.5M now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSBill Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Mark Burnett, the creator of 'Survivor' and other reality TV. They're producing a training camp series by following the Bills and their participation in Free Agency. It's gonna be called 'Asleep At the Wheel.' Â Â That's funny!

papazoid Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 does signing one of your own FA count as a "splash" ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan74 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 If he goes to the Jets can't blame him they should contend for the divison title this year. Not everybody can wait another 10 years for the Bills to build a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 That's odd. I thought that I remembered the Bills drafting 2 corners and a safety in April. One of which they liked so much that they took him at the beginning of the second round. Â Florence had a very good year in 2010. Last season he was so-so from where I sit. Do I want them to keep him? Yes. If for no other reason, to avoid another stomach wrenching scenario of defensive backs musical chairs. Â The thing is, right now Nix should be on the phone with the agents of Kevin Boss, and the agents for the best OTs. They will help us way more than Florence, who may not even start if he goes to the jests. Bill, I really think that you need to be strapped into a chair, Clockwork Orange-like, and forced to watch every defensive series of the Houston Texans last year. That was a team with a talented front seven but horrible CBs, and they gave up huge play after huge play. Their CB play quite literally killed them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Good to hear reasonable money for a solid player. This resigning gives our secondary a lot of depth.  CB's- Florence, McGee, McKelvin, and Williams with Corner being the 5th corner. FS- Byrd back up Scott or Williams SS- Wilson back up Searcy  Now if the Bills can address the front 7 a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 BURN DOWN THE STADIUM, BURN IT DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Â Oh. Wait. Sweet! Â I feel much more comfortable now in bringing Williams along slowly, I'd definitely keep him at CB though...McGee only has one or two more seasons tops and we'll need the CB depth.

CodeMonkey Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 15/3 is a great deal for the Bills. Well done Buddy. I was hoping for a 3 year deal for Poz as well but you can't win em all. I guess the Jets didn't offer Florence a 42/6 deal huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Nice re-signing from the Bills. Nothing to get excited about, but definitely something to be glad about. Florence is 30, so I'm glad they didn't go longer than a 3 year deal. The money seems pretty reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 good job re-signing Florence. Now we have to get more active in free agency as we are in need of another linebacker, and OT and could definitely use a tight end to begin the season.

Dorkington Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Cool, but I don't think he was as important as Poz (or the ILB position, in general) is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Aaron Williams specializes in slot coverage. Now that Florence is back, he & McKelvin have the outside while Williams gets the slot guys. I'm optimistic, but have a hard time seeing him keep up with Welker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr1 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Kudos to Buddy for taking care of Florence. He's a great vet to have around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
