Dorkington Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Dunno where else to put this... but Hoyer is rumored to go to the Texans... maybe Fitzpatrick will be available, and we can cut Cassel
Dibs Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 mario didn't sign until a few days after free agency started It seemed like weeks at the time
BuffaloHokie13 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Dunno where else to put this... but Hoyer is rumored to go to the Texans... maybe Fitzpatrick will be available, and we can cut Cassel Rumor is Fitz to reunite with Gailey in NY
Acantha Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) If they can't "come to terms" what in the world is the point of opening discussions... Of course some guys will come to terms, as some offers would simply work.I think it's probably good for the players in the end. They can come to an agreement with a team and still have another team swoop in and raise the offer a day or two later. The original team couldn't do much about it, even complain openly, since there can't be a deal in place. Hughes is another example of how it can work. The Bills got a chance to let him get offers without the worry of him signing elsewhere before they had a chance to counter. Edited March 9, 2015 by Acantha
The Big Cat Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Rand_Getlin 9:48am via Twitter Web Client Source: The NFL sent a letter to all 32 teams stating their displeasure w/ the release of contract terms prior to the start of free agency.

Pretty sure it's not the teams releasing it. Perhaps they should contact the agents.
Malazan Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Pretty sure it's not the teams releasing it. Perhaps they should contact the agents. The NFL has no authority over the agents. Telling the teams, means they will put more pressure on the agents to not release the details.
YoloinOhio Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 Pretty sure it's not the teams releasing it. Perhaps they should contact the agents. Definitely Jermey Parnell to Jax
CountryCletus Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Still waiting for stud guard to leak the #billsmafia..... F5!!!

The Bills got a chance to let him get offers without the worry of him signing elsewhere before they had a chance to counter. I think you're right on with why it's done this way. It allows the player and current team to gauge the actual market while allowing the opportunity for each to adjust their compensation position before free agency. Marginalizes the transition tag even more.
SJDK Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 No "done deals" rumored to Bills yet. Hoping for some OL talk here soon.LOOPOTTY! He Better come here!
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 team to team done? NFL warns all 32 teams about contract leaks which would be the only team not to get fined?
Canadian Bills Fan Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I hear people talking about Jahari Evans. He is not a FA is he? Is he expected to be cut? CBF

GG Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 The NFL would be the biggest fools if they fine any of the teams for this (especially since the leaks are coming from the agents). The change in the FA signing period just manufactured another big ratings event for NFL media.
