K-9 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Although it pains me to suggest it ... We might actually have a Byrd's replacement in the wings already . And if Coach can line them up accentuating these guys strengths using multiple looks and personnel combos we may not miss a beat . But i would still rather keep Jairus if he was willing. Seems like such an awesome opporunity Byrd right here right now. You ..Snarky ? Bravo If the Bills defense missed a beat, how would we know? GO BILLS!!!

San Jose Bills Fan Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Seriously... We had a beat? If they did, it was a downbeat, not an upbeat. (rimshot anyone?)
Ralph W. Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 I guess none of us will get an answer. Kind of figured though.
3rdand12 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 If the Bills defense missed a beat, how would we know? GO BILLS!!! Oh boy. This isn't like the tree falling in the woods question is it ? I still have yet to figure that one out . Allow me to rephrase. Our newly fangled potential free safeties and coaching stylings might well be up to the task sooner than later and able to fit up. Duke Williams is a fellow i have will keep on my radar and i found J. Meeks and interesting pick.
3rdand12 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 I guess none of us will get an answer. Kind of figured though. Ralphie boy, Byrd aint no scrub . He's a darned good football player and has been an asset to the team so far. That's the answer.

mrags Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Sounds like good news honestly. Like things might be in the works.
chris heff Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Sounds like good news honestly. Like things might be in the works. How do you get "good news" from that? I am seriously asking. Is there some code I am unaware of? Or is it just because he hasn't tweeted in months?

If nothing else, the absence if bad news is good at this crossroad. I wouldn't say it means a deal is in the works but positivity coming from him is better than the alternative

Seems like he is getting friendly again. You know what, I think that RT is great news. It means he wants to a Bill. Also the "been a minute tweet" could well mean they finally settled on the contract, prolly working out the finer details.
Nanker Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 http://www.nationalf...-the-Bills.html Is Byrd really worth $8m or $9m pa? Perhaps Eugene & Jairus can take a look at this link from the Titans game and then get back to Doug Whaley. Top Safety in the NFL? Just sign the $6.91m contract and be grateful. Byrd is averaging 3 INTs per season in the last 3 seasons. Not elite numbers. FWIW: Total Interceptions in their first four years in the NFL Ed Reed 22 Antonio Cromartie 15 (18 in his first 5 seasons - he did not play in his rookie year) Ty Law 18 Jarius Byrd 18 Asante Samuel 16 Champ Bailey 16 Deltha O'Neal 15 Darren Sharper 14 Rod Woodson 13 Charles Woodson 10 Eric Weddell 6 Rhonde Barber 6

K-9 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 You lost very quickly. I guess you "knew" Hernandez would kill people also. The idiocy of this post aside, Byrd just doesn't have the superior athletic physical skills of an Ed Reed. Like I said, compare stats all you want. That's for folks that lack insight. It's how players effect the game play in and play out, not just when they are getting turnovers. Turnovers are the exception, not the rule. Being in the right spots to impact plays on a play to play basis is the name of the game. Byrd just isn't fast or quick enough to do that on the same HOF level as an Ed Reed. GO BILLS!!!
#34fan Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Duke Williams will open everyone's eyes about Jairus Byrd... This freakishly talented, and instinctivee rookie will have all of you Byrd-watchers screaming for Duke Nuke'em! If the little Byrdie doesn't fall in line, it loses it's job to this kid. He is for real... -The genuine article. Edited June 30, 2013 by #34fan
