PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Key passage in an excellent column: "Robert Woods, another of the 23 free agents, is telling people he's out of here. If those two leave, it means the Bills will have no one left from the 2013 draft. The Bills would be quick to remind us that Buddy Nix was GM at the time." Thanks for posting this, Rico. Where's the quote. Why not use Woods own words for such a big statement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 So Bob Woods isn't fu**ing crazy? I have it on good authority that he is indeed f*ing crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDD Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Sully is a moron. I don't think he is right. So much of his article is conjecture. Scoreboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 IMO Woods will flourish elsewhere. Admit it......you thought SJ13 and CJ Spiller were going to flourish elsewhere too......c'mon. I laughed heartily at those sentiments on this forum. And was right. Per usual. I think Woods will be ok in an offense where he will be a better fit but "flourish" sounds like 100 catches 1000+ yards and 10 TD's. That AIN'T happening.......Aaron Rodgers couldn't do that for Bob Woods........and GB doesn't pay #2 WR. In fact.......it will be interesting to see who chooses to pay Bob.......my guess is that the teams with the QB that could make him come closest to "flourishing" won't have interest at the asking price. What kinda' production numbers you talkin' bout when you say flourishing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Show of hands...who's upset they lost? Are you upset that they will draft at 10 instead of 15 too? No one can say it out loud but Whaley and Lynn tanked this game. They did the right thing. They did what Bucky and Sully would write about after worthless end-of-season wins in the past.

What kinda' production numbers you talkin' bout when you say flourishing? I've never understood the love for Woods here either. I like his effort and grit but he's an average #2 at best; easily replaceable. I can't see paying him $9-$10M / yr like people were advocating in an earlier thread.

Peter Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 My head is going to explode, I actually agree with some of what Sullen has to say: "That's when it really hit me how poor a job General Manager Doug Whaley has done building an NFL roster through the draft, and how little he did to help Rex Ryan in his second and, ultimately, final season as the Bills' head coach. . . . That's a pretty miserable effort. And while things could get better down the road, it flies in the face of the notion – pushed by Whaley and team ownership – that he gave Ryan some kind of playoff roster this season. Well, Ryan is gone. The team that failed to show up against the Jets for Lynn is Whaley's baby now. It's all on him. No one else to blame for all the misguided moves and financially bloated roster that bumbled its way to a 17th straight non-playoff season.

QB Bills Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I want to like Whaley. But I keep coming back to the fact that he was going to take Ebron over OBJ or Aaron Donald if he hadn't overpaid for Watkins. That would have really sucked.

OhDozeBills Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Anyone who thinks Whaley has done a good job, just take a look at our draft picks since 2013. It's really been less than impressive and there have been several misses and much better players available that we passed on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Whaley's reaction when the Pegulas asked him who is to blame: https://twitter.com/Bu4LoSoldier20/status/814500007135113216 This also may have been the secret video of Doug blaming others in his call with Jason LaCanfora.

Wayne Arnold Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Woods is "telling people" he's gone. Yet Sully - who has never been known for breaking stories or providing inside information - is the only person "reporting" this. That doesn't smell right.
