BuffaloBob Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 What was his signing bonus with NO ... does he even have to play again? lol Maybe he is holding out until he gets paid what he should. We know who his agent is after all. It is probably about time to start the Parker "re-negotiate" strategy again, isn't it? I'm mean sure, he was injured all of last season but, you could make an argument he out-played his contract, can't you?
Kirby Jackson Posted September 2, 2015 Author Posted September 2, 2015 The Saints defense is going to be really bad again, isn't it? Asking as a Matt Ryan fantasy owner.They are terrible!!! The rookies are pretty good but Keenan Lewis is now out like 6 weeks too.I agree with this theory. I don't think he is faking anything. I think he probably milks these injuries though.I said this a few years back with REALLY solid info and got ripped for saying it. It comes from his dad. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/165998-jairus-byrd-was-jarius-byrd/page-4
Nick the Greek Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Byrd was the man, I wish he was still on the Bills. I'm not afraid to say it. I wish him the best.
Saint Doug Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Byrd was the man, I wish he was still on the Bills. I'm not afraid to say it. I wish him the best. I wish him the best, but never in a million years would I long to have such a player on my team.

Bookie Man Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 This guy is an odd bird. Loved him in Buffalo, but sounds like a headache.
Wazzu Bill Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 I figured that you guys would be interested in following this saga here: http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/new-orleans-saints/is-jarius-byrd-medically-cleared-but-refusing-to-play/58516826/ Why are other fan boards so difficult on the eyes? Thank you TBD web designer for making threads easy to read.

Wasn't it his dad that kept encouraging him to go into FA? First off, thanks to him for that. Second, wonder if he's now saying "Don't rush it back, in my day you had to be right back on the field." Total speculation. Of course maybe he just knows he's made a ton of dough the next injury might really put him out. Go on, take the money and run...
White Linen Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Make sure you give credit to Whaley for this while people are slamming him for the tough decisions he makes. Exactly and make sure you thank him for realizing that when your second string RB is the leader of your offense it's a big big big problem.
Rob's House Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 I told you guys he wasn't really the word.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Wow. Whaley going rogue sure helped the Bills dodge this bullet. Obviously Doug Whaley has no business running an NFL franchise. As some astute posters here point out, his personnel decisions are terrible. The Bills will never recover from losing Kelvin Sheppard to the Colts for Jerry Hughes.
Dr. Fong Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Remember how bent out of shape everyone was when the Bills didn't re-sign him?
Doc Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 He was slow to begin with and age and injuries have robbed him of enough speed that even his instincts can't save him. I thought he might have had a year or two left in him and was glad they let him walk rather than pay him $9M/year, but I didn't imagine he'd play just 4 games for them.

In the end, Byrd will have made a lot of money, suffered a few minor/recoverable injuries, and will walk away from the NFL with his health and money (but no lasting legacy of any kind). I guess that's his prerogative. This is a job for him; he probably couldn't care less about being a good player or having a well-acclaimed NFL career.

He has been paid like $18.3M by the Saints so far I think that it said earlier in the thread. If they pay him another chunk as a settlement he will walk away with a lot of money. He will never work another day again in his life and live quite comfortably. It's a shame.
