fridge Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Chris Williams gets a bad rap, but I don't think he's been healthy since the first week of camp. I think you mean that he gets a bad rep AND he's been injured for forever, too.
FireChan Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 FC, you need to accept the proposition that it's a 50/50 proposition going in. Urbik was at least serviceable when acquired and has regressed since. Chris Williams gets a bad rap, but I don't think he's been healthy since the first week of camp last year. Whaley is going to make mistakes in the future as well. Revis is no mistake. He's as close to a 100% sure thing as there is. GO BILLS!!! This is a funny visual. GO BILLS!!! Chris Williams actually looked okay at times, if not good. I don't expect Whaley to bat 1.000. He even may think the impact of a Revis is worth the crappy G's. He may be right. My only point was by chasing these big contract positions is putting the chance to sign a good G in jeopardy. Maybe Whaley thinks there's 3-4 day one starters in the draft. I don't know. I just don't know if the #3 defense and the #25 offense should be signing more $10 million per year DB's.
TC in St. Louis Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Regarding Urbik: wasn't he a waiver wire pickup from Pittsburgh? He played well enough for that status. To get a starter off the waiver wire is good work. To get Hughes for Kelvin Sheppard was a great deal. To get LeSean for Kiko was pretty good. I think Doug is doing solid work. can't wait to see what happens next.

Stads Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 If Pegs gives Revis $50 million in a suitcase, does it count against the cap?

Time for "Timmah" to fulfill his promise to resign from covering the Bills. He's swung and missed on almost every FA prediction.

I don't think signing Revis precludes us from acquiring another decent G in FAgency. I also think we have some very good skill players already in place that can pressure a defense, regardless. And Clay gives Roman his deep seem threat that he loves. Let's see how it shakes out first, though. Revis may be a pipe dream, anyway. GO BILLS!!!

MDH Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I dont understand why they wouldnt pursue him when they could have him and still have room for Clay, a G and then still have room to re-sign their own upcoming FAs to top tier contracts all by cutting a few backups. Pegula is cheap.

papazoid Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 If Pegs gives Revis $50 million in a suitcase, does it count against the cap? does it make a sound ?
Rob's House Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 If the numbers reported are accurate it's a hell of a lot of guaranteed money for a CB his age, but with him this defense could be in the best of all time conversation.
