Someone, please just try to defend his worth on this team. 804664[/snapback] Dont worry dude. You and others will get your wish when he is signed by another team for 8 million ....
rolly Posted October 15, 2006 Author Posted October 15, 2006 Dont worry dude. You and others will get your wish when he is signed by another team for 8 million .... 804681[/snapback] I'm ok with that
daquixers_is_back Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I'm ok with that 804686[/snapback] Watch how our team is without him
rolly Posted October 15, 2006 Author Posted October 15, 2006 Watch how our team is without him 804689[/snapback] Certainly won't be better but I don't think it would make a huge difference. I'd like to take that money and get a real offensive or defensive tackle.
Berman Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 We will not miss him a bit. The money will be better spent on other upgrades, he istnt worth the money he expects.
crackur Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 We will not miss him a bit. The money will be better spent on other upgrades, he istnt worth the money he expects. 804745[/snapback] yeah ok hi fairweather fan
ans4e64 Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Watch how our team is without him 804689[/snapback] dude why are you all over clement's meatstick? seriously you talk about him in every thread, just give up on it already, whatever team he goes to just follow them for christ sake.

YOOOOOO Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Why wasnt Clements on ROY.... maybe cuz our Defense has Clements cover what ever WR is on his side.... You trying to say its his fault they lined up ROY vs Mcgee??
Wraith Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I've got to believe that a big part of why are corners have looked SOOOO bad this year is due to scheme. There are guys who's day job it is to drive UPS trucks that haven't been abused as bad as our guys. Both McGee and Clements have shown they have talent in the past, but this year they look horrible. Of course, you can't blame the scheme for Clements tackling prowess....
BuffaloBilliever Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Youboty/McGee will be a solid tandem at corner, with Kiwaukee stickin' his nose in every once in a while
true_blue_bill Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Watch how our team is without him 804689[/snapback] Ya, we might lose to winnless teams, it will be horrible!

daquixers_is_back Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 dude why are you all over clement's meatstick? seriously you talk about him in every thread, just give up on it already, whatever team he goes to just follow them for christ sake. 805179[/snapback] Because I dont see the point in giving up a good player just to get another play who is not going to be as good. Other teams pay their players, and we should to. Did you watch the pre-game today? Other teams are going to give Clements the money he wants because they (unlike rose-colored-glasses Bills fans) can see that Clements is a darn good corner. Why wasnt Clements on ROY....maybe cuz our Defense has Clements cover what ever WR is on his side.... You trying to say its his fault they lined up ROY vs Mcgee?? 805185[/snapback] Some posters dont understand football ... not much you can do about that. Youboty/McGee will be a solid tandem at corner, with Kiwaukee stickin' his nose in every once in a while 805193[/snapback] The same McGee that got torched all game?
Billsguy Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I've got to believe that a big part of why are corners have looked SOOOO bad this year is due to scheme. 805188[/snapback] What scheme? The concept that 4 mediocre DT's can substitute for two good ones? How about DE's who are mostly anonymous? The idea that a virtual rookie QB behind a patchwork offensive line can't score points reliably. The list goes on and on... Re-signing Clements for big money would make a little sense if both lines weren't in desperate need of repair. Since they are in need, goodbye Nate!
Dr. Trooth Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Watch how our team is without him what do you mean by that? This teamis 2-4, soon to be 2-5. Do you think Clements is the difference between 1-6 and 2 and 5? He's a better than average corner... but cannot lock down revceiver one on one like McCallister or Baily. Thus, I'd ratherr pickup two players for $4M than Nate for $8M. I hope the Bills trade his a$$ before Tuesday. Kiwaukee Thomas can't do worsew than Nate has this year, and Youboty is waiting in the wings.

Re-signing Clements for big money would make a little sense if both lines weren't in desperate need of repair. Since they are in need, goodbye Nate! 805230[/snapback] So we cut nate, draft a bunch of people for the lines and then what? Its not likely were going to be getting a good OL or DL in free agency. Teams re-sign good OL/DL before they reach the market. So we take our chance on draftees. Thats fine. The Bills are currently under the cap by nearly 12 MILLION and thats with us paying Clements 7.2 mill this year. So if we are so under the cap why cant we sign Clements to a 3-4 year contract, pay him a big signing bonus and then use the 12 million in empty cap to pay our draftees. People keep saying we can use the 7 mill we pay Clements to give to other players. Well first of all if we work the contract right we may not be paying him 7 mill next year ... a lot could go into signing bonus and over time, incentives ... etc. Also WHAT players do you want to give his money too?
Patience Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 Won't matter if Clements leaves, we can't be much worse. He just got torched by Roy freakin' Williams. Build a good pass rush in the FA / Draft, and suddenly there's no need for an "All-Pro" like Nate at CB. Trade Clements for McFarland, and pick up Gaines Adams, DE in the Draft.
