rowisu80 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 ok....thanks..for some odd reason i thought that the player still had a choice ...been watching football for 30 years and I still can't keep up with some of these things
klos63 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Ok, who is out there that's better? Let's overpay so we could complain about being in cap hell next season. Groy is making backup money. As others have said, maybe he can compete at RT but otherwise Wood's contract is up next year, he walks, and Groy slides in on the cheap. My guess is if that happens and seems likely, that Groy would get a bump in pay through an extension. Still likely a team friendly deal.

r00tabaga Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Do not cut Wood. Glad posters aren't the ones making decisions at OBD.
3rdand12 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 great news, we need depth on the line. Agreed Do not cut Wood. Glad posters aren't the ones making decisions at OBD. Why wood you cut Wood? He has another year on his contract ? Â Chopping wood is another story altogether
Doc Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 can't Groy choose where he wants to play now that we matched? Â You mean like, on the OL?
elroy16 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 I didn't think they'd match the offer, figured they would go with ducasse, Lewis, and maybe a draft pick as interior backups. I'm glad they matched it and was wrong about the tender, I thought it would be better served to put the 2nd round tender on him. Â I'm curious to see how it works out with gillislee.
klos63 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 ....should be real careful with that "voice of reason" crap around here...... i'll try not to make a habit of it.
LABILLBACKER Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 I am impressed with Doug Whaley so far this offseason. They now need to retain Gillislee and take a WR at 10 and I'll be excited for next season. If we draft Corey Davis and resign TD Mike, it will be a very good offseason....
nucci Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Clear out $3.2 million in cap space which can be carried over int next season. So cap space is more important that actual players now? can't Groy choose where he wants to play now that we matched? He has a signed contract with the Bills...so no he can't. He plays for Buffalo
ajmac Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Man, if you watched this kid when he came in, he looked every bit as solid as Woods. Watch the tape! Â I would cut bait with Woods now or see if you can trade him for something and use that cash on a position of need, perhaps another DB or maybe bring Zach a brown back. Just saying...
WotAGuy Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Could another team still come in and make another, higher offer sheet?
Ittakestime Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Man, if you watched this kid when he came in, he looked every bit as solid as Woods. Watch the tape! Â I would cut bait with Woods now or see if you can trade him for something and use that cash on a position of need, perhaps another DB or maybe bring Zach a brown back. Just saying... Â Woods isn't even on this team.

Â I would cut bait with Woods now or see if you can trade him for something and use that cash on a position of need, perhaps another DB or maybe bring Zach a brown back. Just saying... Ummm......Woods is already gone to Rams. Wood is still our starting center....adds to credibility if you can get the names right....just saying....and I respectfully disagree. Groy is great depth for the inevitable injury. I will be happy if he never has to fill in for Wood.
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Lighten up Francis, everyone and their grandma knew he was talking about Wood. It's Psycho... call him Francis again and he'll kill ya
gatorbait Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) It's Psycho... call him Francis again and he'll kill yaHaha I'm starting to catch on to his posting style. I even deleted my post to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. Edited March 16, 2017 by gatorbait
Tuco Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Could another team still come in and make another, higher offer sheet? No. RFA player gets to sign only one offer sheet. That offer sheet is an actual contract that goes into effect with one team or the other, either immediately upon the Bills matching or once the 5 days are up without matching.

Glad to hear that and glad OBD decided to match the offer.
artmalibu Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Funny that so many think he is as good as Wood. Every team in the NFL could have made him an offer and we saw what the best one was, not starter money. Great depth and maybe a starter at some point but Wood is still the better player.
