GG Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Gee, I wonder who Revis would be playing for now if the Bills had drafted him. He'd be back in Buffalo now that Rex is here and the checkbook is open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Makes sense because his name was definitely atop the rumor list back then. Is it true that it was Ralph who swayed the pick towards Lynch? Ralph was always biased towards rbs ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 He'd be back in Buffalo now that Rex is here and the checkbook is open. We were in on the bidding war this year, and quickly pulled out. The checkbook isnt that open, and he wasnt giving us much of a Rex discount.

John from Riverside Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Yes and we would have been dealing with cap issues and revis negotiations year.....after year.....after year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 He'd be back in Buffalo now that Rex is here and the checkbook is open. Can you imagine the board debates over his new contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Ralph was always biased towards rbs ... And DJ was all about the DB's... Those were some dark days. Even when they made solid picks, those guys were allowed out the door for a song and a dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxum Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I think Revis will go on to be an agent when he retires; he likes the negotiation game so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I wonder in how many years it would take BillfromNYC to admit it was a good pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan714 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Ralph was always biased towards rbs .. And some things never change. See trading for Shady and signing him long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Always felt he was the CB Marv talked about. He said after taking Lynch there were 2 players they wanted, Lynch and a CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 But took Lynch ... http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2015/07/28/darrelle-revis-new-york-jets-return we know how to draft RBs This place would have imploded if they had taken another DB on the heels of the Detonating Hitner Hitler, or wtf he calls himself now. you mean like we did when we took Lynch and then Spiller Gee, I wonder who Revis would be playing for now if the Bills had drafted him.

bbb Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 This place would have imploded if they had taken another DB on the heels of the Detonating Hitner Hitler, or wtf he calls himself now. This would have been the year before Hitner, so maybe we could have avoided that mess. Revis and the Ngata - that would have been nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Always felt he was the CB Marv talked about. He said after taking Lynch there were 2 players they wanted, Lynch and a CB.Ha ha, Marv probably referred to him as "the CB" not because he didn't want to reveal it, but because he didn't known his name.

Saxum Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 If Lynch wasn't an idiot here, it would have been a great pick. Yes Lynch seemed real enthusiastic even bringing his mother to WNY to handle his affairs and then seemed to fall apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
