hmsmystic Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Clearly Roman and Rex have a hard on for guys who can only go deep. I can't imagine there being a huge market for him. 4-5 mil a year and just let him run verticals all day? No thank you. 4-5 million???? We don't have the money. Get a rookie to run fast downfield- maybe someone who can return kicks as well
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 He would be perfect opposite Sammy, Whaley knows him well. But it would be difficult to get him signed. You must not have watched him play the last several years. He's not good and he's small.
H2o Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Just say no to Wallace. He was a one trick pony in Pittsburgh and Ben Roethlisberger made him a VERY rich man.
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 You must not have watched him play the last several years. He's not good and he's small. Yeah - hes looking for a harvin deal to overpay him this year. I'm sure he's not terrible. But he isn't worth the headache.
papazoid Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Mike Wallace released by Vikings after one year http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/14929592/minnesota-vikings-release-wide-receiver-mike-wallace
Beef Jerky Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Seeing that Mike Wallace doesn't like QBs that don't throw exclusively to him he would not like Tyrod or Sammy.
billsfan89 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Not a bad idea. Move Woods to the slot and have Wallace go deep outside. Of course you would like a better option but if they feel he fits the offense and still has a solid year left in him it could be a decent band aid type move. Throw Wallace out there for a year hope to get solid production for one year and then focus other resources on other needs.
JTO Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Amen brother! I'd much rather Wallace than Harvin Much rather draft a WR.
BADOLBILZ Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) He does fit the offense. Yes Tyrod's deep ball proficiency seems like a perfect fit for Wallace and a very good fit for the Bills offense. Since he left Pittsburgh he's had Tannehill and Bridgewater throwing to him......he couldn't have been more of a misfit with those dink and dunkers. The Bills front office used to be pretty obsessed with his game.........they launched themselves about 4 rounds too soon up the draft board to select TJ Graham and then grasped at Marquis Goodwin in attempts to replicate success that Pitt had with Wallace. There is a James Lofton parallel there......Lofton was cut and picked up as an afterthought by the Bills and their offense and JK's ability to get the ball downfield to him brought him back from the dead. Ideally, I'd prefer to have a fast AND TALL WR opposite Watkins but if TT is completing deep balls to either side of the field the safeties are forced to play deep and split wide and that softens run defenses and leaves the middle of the field open for Clay down the seam.

Simon Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Whaley knows him well. Which is why he will not be coming to Buffalo. If you look in a thesaurus under "football player" you'll find a picture of Mike Wallace........ under the antonyms.
Virgil Posted March 15, 2016 Author Posted March 15, 2016 Signed for 5.5 mil to the Ravens. I would have made that deal. Oh well
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 Signed for 5.5 mil to the Ravens. I would have made that deal. Oh well Probably the perfect team for him. He just run the only pattern he can run, a fly, and Flacco will bomb it to him.

That said, for his limited skill set, Flacco is a much better qb for him than Bridgewater.
/dev/null Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 i remember a Dolphan friend of mine at the time was stoked when they signed Wallace. I told him to read the fine print in the contract. The Dolphins were only getting an overpaid WR, not a WR with Ben Rothlesberger
3rdand12 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Wallace went to the right team. Too pricey for my tastes. Although i agree TT needs that threat across from Watkins now and again. Tyrod can hit hit it , and safeties will respect it
Section242 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 According to Florio he had Harvin as possibly to Baltimore or returning to Buffalo seemed speculation.
