Which Bills free agent pickup that you loved to turned out to be a flop?

 

Mine is Dockery. I thought the line really needed help and he was part of the answer. Man, he was a bust. ?

Bush was a cheap free agent.  There are many worse FA signings

Which is the case of most of the free agenst signed during the Whaley era.

It's going back a little, but Joe Panos was the Derek Dockery of his times.  An interior linemen. We signed him to a hefty contract, from the Eagles around 1997 or 1998.  He was often injured, and just flat out terrible when he was healthy.

another vote for Dockery

There were 2 really bad olinemen signed that year. What was the other guys name? I want to say Walker? Those 2 and Robert Royal are my vote.

Interestingly enough we really don't have much.. we do well getting FA's. Not to jack the idea of the thread, but what trade offer / FA signing would you hate currently?

Just now, White Linen said:

Anquan Boldin 

Mike Tolbert

Patrick DiMarco

 

those were nobodies with no guarantees. Tolbert signing wouldn't have been so bad if we knew we were actually going to run him so much haa

Somehow one of the many Buddy defenders will find a way to justify the signing

 

 

Thankfully, I didn't do Twitter back then and BBMB is burnt to the ground. No evidence of how dumb my takes may have been.

 

I'll hear no Buddy Nix slander though. I heard him before I saw him and I thought the Bills GM was Foghorn Leghorn. I will let nothing sully that memory :)

Was Merriman expensive? Dockery was such a mess

Larry Triplett - between him and 1st round stud John McCargo we were going to be loaded at DT(5th round pick that year out of LSU Kyle Williams was just a camp body!)

Larry Triplett is a great choice because he was very expensive and really played like garabage.

 

im going to throw another out there:

 

Quinn Early - He had his best season ever in New Orleans and we signed him to a decent sized contract after he eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark.  Quinn was okay with the Bills but he never found the form that he had the previous season.
