Typical TBD Guy Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Nice avatar! Right off the bat, I like: Kalimba Edwards, DE, Lions Adam Archuleta, SS, Rams Ryan Picket, DT, Rams Each fills a need, would be familiar to our new coaching staff, has great talent, will fit in our cover 2 system, and won't be TOO expensive. I'm also pleased to see several good free agent centers out there. So at least it shouldn't become a Bentley or bust kind of offseason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortured Soul Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 What struck me about this list is how low Shaffer is. Does Prisco know what he's talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrite Gal Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Cannot believe Big Lazy Mike is on the list some other interesting ideas. Give it a look http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/9273738 618307[/snapback] I can believe it. Big Mike was chopped by the Bills for the twin reasons of non-performance and a contract that demanded performance from a #4 drafted player. They would have actually loved to have kept him at half of his contract and probably a bit more, but he was an easy cut for us to make with his 06 cap hit or even a lower hit over 50% of his current contract but still more than the maximum the CBA allows a contract to be cut. He will sign on with another team having pocketed the bonus from the Bills which will allow him to sign an FA contract for chump change from another team in salary but big incentive numbers based on the number of starts or simply remaining on the roster of his new home. He should be a desirable FA because with an incentive laden contract the price will be right for a young OL player who had motivational issues and initial coaching by Vinky and Ruel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Some team will take a flier on Fat Mike. Afterall, every team has to spend their minimum cap figure on some collection of bodies. The Bills unceremonious and sharp dumping of Fat Mike may be a wake up call to him, but I think his lax and lazy ways will not be so easily overcome. He will not be able to "turn it on like a light switch." He will live on in infamy as a spectacular bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Big Mike will be good for a run dedicated team, that will stick with and commit to running more then 50% of the time. He is good at getting a push off the line. That team has to commit to supporting him with a TE or FB to chip the speed rushers. Anyone notice that the greatest back in football looked real average after Big Mike went out and Peters came in. The only game Mcgahee got more then 100 yards after Williams was benched was in the Jets game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
