VABills Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Basically Ralph is a cheap bastard is what it says: Unless he changes his mind about an offer from the Buffalo Bills, or the Houston Texans change their mind about him, it appears former Green Bay defensive coordinator Jim Bates might actually sit out the 2006 season and collect the $900,000 the Packers owe him on his existing contract. Bates has been offered the Bills' coordinator post by new head coach Dick Jauron, but the salaries proposed by Buffalo are said to be below the $1.85 million the Packers owe him total for the 2006 and 2007 seasons.

Bates has been offered the Bills' coordinator post by new head coach Dick Jauron, but the salaries proposed by Buffalo are said to be below the $1.85 million the Packers owe him total for the 2006 and 2007 seasons. At one point, it appeared Bates was headed to St. Louis, to run the defense for Rams rookie coach Scott Linehan, but the two sides were $400,000-$500,000 apart on a three-year contract. Then it looked as though Bates, who took over a Packers defense that ranked 25th in 2004 and raised it to No. 7 in 2005, would become the Houston Texans' coordinator. But new coach Gary Kubiak seemed to prefer a tandem setup in which Miami Dolphins coordinator Richard Smith and Arizona Cardinals linebackers coach Frank Bush would be co-coordinators. But on Thursday the Cardinals refused the Texans permission to talk to Bush, who recently signed a new contract with the team, so Kubiak's plans are up in the air. It's possible he could phone Bates, who some say feels burned by the Texans, and reopen discussions. For now, though, Bates is a terrific and proven coordinator without a place to sit, and the tune is starting to wind down in the NFL's game of coordinator musical chairs. Word is that San Diego receivers coach James Lofton, who interviewed for head coach vacancies in Oakland and Buffalo, made a very strong impression at both places. Pencil in the Hall of Fame wide receiver, who has terrific communication skills, as a guy to watch when openings arise over the next few years. Team officials seem to like the fact that Lofton, unlike some candidates who have played in the NFL and then moved onto the coaching ranks, has separated himself nicely from his playing days. There were broadcast reports last week that Jim Haslett had withdrawn his candidacy for the Buffalo Bills head coach job. Nice spin job, folks, by some media people. The truth is, the Bills, who subsequently hired Dick Jauron to succeed Mike Mularkey, never really demonstrated any substantial interest in the former New Orleans Saints coach. When he sought his release from Saints owner Tom Benson, Haslett felt he would be able to land another head coaching gig pretty easily, signed on with the St. Louis Rams as the defensive coordinator for first-year coach Scott Linehan.

Omar Little Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 What was so negative about what Pasquarelli said? He's just stating facts. If anyone here is gullible enough to think Wilson isn't cheap, then I feel sorry for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
