We don’t know everything behind the scenes. And I’m pretty sure it’s Marlon Kerner he’s mad at. Drayton Flourence Really? While we are at it lets have a Keith Ellison appearance.

JerseyBills Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 That's a shame. Dude was a gamer and above average S who caught an unextremely unlucky break just entering his prime. It's a shame really. I'm sure he has some resentment and anger built up about the situation as a whole and i don't blame him. With that said , the owners and front office have no attatchment to him .
Augie Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 There is stuff we don’t know here. I don’t recommend judging anyone at this point. Not enough info. 2 1

They could have asked for the remainder of his signing bonus back, but AFAIK, they didn't. In the case of retirement due to injury, I don't think they can ask for part of the signing bonus back. That's only if the player retires 'cuz, don't wanna play any more. 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: I mean if I see Donte Whitner out there someday leading the charge then maybe he has case, but don’t see why he feels entitled to do it. Drayton Florence? Who's he?

Players are putting their body on the line and should not be overly penalized for a career ending injury. They already essentially play on one year deals. 2
mrags Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 Maybe it’s becaise he’s kind of a douche??? used to love him when he played. Then I met him and feel like he’s a douche that thinks too highly of himself. If Freddy was there at the time he would have smacked the chit out of him and told him to act like a man.

I'm ok of that's the case. Do you honestly have ANY idea what he's talking about though? Maybe some drunk Bills Mafia fan berated his performance with the Bills. But he probably wanted handouts lol. Makes sense. 10 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: Not all beef ages well, AW. Move on with life. You're a rich young man. Enjoy.. Sounds like he's trying to be a part of the Buffalo community. Do you say this about Jim Kelly too? Embraces Buffalo but that sad ba*****d should probably move on with his life too huh. 1

But I do think that he would be pretty Petty and better when the bill said they're not going to just let him have carte blanche access to the team 1

I wouldn't really know. He was a pretty humble shy kid in highschool for a superstar athlete. Maybe he's changed after being in Buffalo as a Pro athlete.. definitely leads you to douche territory getting to that highest level. I'd like to know what he's like now.. any anecdotes?
Rico Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 There are very, very few players from the Drought Era that I have any love for, and AW isn't one of them. Too bad he's not happy. Meanwhile, welcome back Nate Clements!

Sounds like those up in Buffalo got to know him after he got real success. He was a real quiet humble guy for a star athlete at my highschool and college. But I'd really like to know wtf he's talking about. Being denied to run out the field isn't even Bills Mafia that he's complaining about right? 10 hours ago, Doc said: Was just going to say that.

I don't know the story here but what he got paid for what he did with the Bills and subsequently got injured for doing his job has nothing to do with it.

The Rex Ryan D actually worked with him on the field. iirc

I don't know what AW is peeved about but how is his attempt to stay engrained in the community different. JK was once a relatively rich young man retired that stuck in Buffalo getting to know the community just like AW is. But AW needs to move on.. Edited December 12, 2018 by PetermanThrew5Picks

This has already been commented on. Did you not read his tweet? He's asking us to name any player past or present who is more involved with Buffalo than him. How is that not most moronic thing he could type? He can't think of.....ANY former Bill who is more ingrained in Buffalo than him?? This guy has nothing to do with the Buffalo the city. 1
