It will be interesting to see what sort of competing offer the Ravens make (if, in fact, they make an offer).

 

The problem for the Bills in offering a 1-year prove-it deal (if true) is that it is hardly an appealing opportunity for a wide receiver hoping to capitalize and hit the jackpot next year. I understand that the offense will be different this year with Dennison, but the fact remains that the team is still built to be run-first. It is difficult to visualize a WR2 putting up huge numbers in this offense.

 

Of course, Robert Woods DID get his.

Comparing my current state of mind to that of years ago as I was F5'ing the Mario thread, I've concluded that my emotional state as it relates to the Bills has evolved not one iota. I think I'm hooked for life, for better or for worse.

My source at work who is friends with a Bills front office person claims that Maclin has signed with the Bills, but it has not been officially announced as of yet until the paperwork goes through and is approved, FYI FWIW

What happened ?

apparently he's left

 

guessing he's wanting a bigger number or more years on the deal. Glad the Bills held strong.

How would one arrive at the opinion that advertising your inner workings on your official web site without knowing how things will work out is something an experienced GM would do? Your star running back looks incompetent and your fan base gets worked into a tizzy and then the guy leaves. Why would an experienced GM do something like that?

 

If nobody can arrive at that opinion, which I think is pretty much impossible, then what I said is not an opinion.

 

You said "Saying this was a rookie mistake by a GM is in fact accurate."

 

It's YOUR OPINION that this was a "rookie mistake". Your opinion. Not a "fact".

 

 

As for the contention that the Bills should have kept this quiet, in the Internet world, do you really think that's possible? Had they said nothing, half the fan base would have spun up conspiracy theories, since every other media outlet was reporting the visit. Don't teams announce FA visits all the time??

And what inner workings did they give away? They didn't even mention dinner at Tempo, their lead recruitment tactic!

 

Lastly, I'm definitely not sure how Shady looks "incompetent". Because he used his Twitter account to reach out to a friend to try and recruit him to Buffalo? You know he wasn't negotiating the deal, right?

Yeah I'll probably use potato starch--Mrs. Bandit can't do gluten

Potato starch? My wife has gluten issues to so I'm always looking for ways to work around it, but I've never even heard of this. Google here I come!

It works just fine as a 0.5:1 replacement for coating meat, frying, thickening, etc.

 

Don't ever try to bake with it though
