I for one appreciate JW coming by and given what insight he has at any given time. And its even more comical he's getting grief over Trent Murphy...not like he's alluding to some big trade acquisition with no details here, its a rotational player at best and people giving him grief because the info wasn't definitive yet. Geesh. I'd say the issue people have is it comes off as saying a player dangerously on the edge of the 53 is dangerously on the edge of the 53.

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 If the team is putting out the message that they're still heeing and hawing over Murphy, it makes me think it's cuttsville

Now this was less of a shock then if he had said WR John Brown's status .. but the point is they are likely having discussions re: trade, reduced salary, etc. It might be for you, I never once assume is roster spot is guaranteed.

I'm no cap expert, so I won't pretend to understand the ramifications on either side. I just look at it as: Murphy has value The Bills have a surplus of DEs Other teams assuredly have a need for DEs Getting a late-round pick is better than nothing! 2

There was a lot of misery yet to come, but signing Williams signified that the Bills were willing to make the big move to change their fortunes, and it indicated that big-time talent would come to Buffalo. I couldn't leave my computer during that time, for fear I would miss something. I thought it was supposed to be drafting CJ Spiller. I remember Ralph Wilson talking about how that represented their new commitment to getting playmakers and being more competitive or something like that. 4 minutes ago, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: Grammar tip.

That seems extremely telling.
