John from Riverside Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 1 minute ago, Peter said: He was trying to create leverage after he had buyer's remorse on the restructured deal. Guess what? He was successful. He was able to maneuver his way out of the deal. We will see if he gets a better contract. In my view, we cannot afford to lose offensive linemen . . . especially one that went to the pro bowl last year and has the trust of our best offensive weapon. What if Cog was going to get released if he did not restructure his deal (this happens in all NFL teams not just the bills) Is it any different in that situation? I think they had their replacement in the bullpen in Groy

Seantrel. The Bills did not re-sign him and he signed with Houston. He started a bunch of games for the Bills and has shown that (when healthy) he is capable and certainly a capable back up. At a minimum, we need the depth.

I actually thought Henderson was not very good when he played (jmo) My recollection is he would give max effort to try to win the position...then get lazy and play like crap. 1

To me, yes. He was on the team last year. We will see how he plays for the Texans. To say he "needed weed" is a tad of an oversimplification. 1

To say he "needed weed" is a tad of an oversimplification. Im really not trying to split hairs...just trying to understand. He has a condition that caused him to lose weight and he has been suspended because he cannot tolerate the pain without using weed which is still illegal in the league. Am I missing something?

Maybe he goes to the Pats* as a secret agent and we get free shots on Brady right up the middle? It’s Richie, nothing is TOO crazy!!! 1 1

That is def not my intention. I dont have any problem with it at all..its just that the NFL still does which is what makes it a problem. 1

Yes, he overcame the illness and was on the team last year. To me, it was worth extending him especially given the investment we had in him as well as the sorry state of our line. When healthy, he can start at multiple positions on the line . . . and, at a minimum, provides good depth. Just my two cents.

I understand that side of it. What I am wondering is if the bills were considering cutting him anyway in their "on the go rebiuld" so it was not such a bit deal that this happened. I dont like the precident though....and i thought they made a good statement with Bolden

At $4m I’m not sure I’m paying him... but I also think that cuts johns “he’s just a bum” take out at the knees. The guy has potential. i agree fans got overly excited about his play but it wasn’t bad either.
Greatdane21 Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 Should have held him on list until at least the end of training camp, that way if some team had a major injury they could get something in return!
