cåblelady Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Did they just say something about Nate and the 49ers?
Arkady Renko Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Did they just say something about Nate and the 49ers? Talking contract, but nothing yet.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Thats a lot of "grip" for Dockery (to use the prison lexicon) but its definitely worth it in my books. We finally have some maulers up front that can just toss D-Lineman aside.
OnTheRocks Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Wow. I wonder how much Steinbach will get. i think i heard Clayton say he received 2Million more in total guaranteed money than Dockery. Both deals were very similar.
John from Riverside Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 He better not be Tutan Reyes. He isnt...this guy can actually run block. He is true left guard The left side of this line just got REALLY good..... Peters Dockery Fowler Gandy Walker
cåblelady Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 The left side of this line just got REALLY good..... Peters Dockery Fowler Gandy Walker Good. JP throws to the left alot!
Phlegm Alley Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 PetersDockery Fowler Gandy Walker We need to sign Gandy first in order to accomplish that lineup.
K-Gun10 Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 He isnt...this guy can actually run block. He is true left guard The left side of this line just got REALLY good..... Peters Dockery Fowler Gandy Walker Gandys a free agent and do you think walker will start and everythings looking good we just need a runner.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 We need to sign Gandy first in order to accomplish that lineup. How dare you deny the power of Whittle!? ...man, I feel dirty just typing that.
Ozymandius Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Holy crap, that's a lot of money. That means Dielman will top $20 million in guaranteed money.
Nanker Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Great job Marv! 3-for-3 on the first day! AND you took one of them from under A-hole Snyder's dirt-bag nose. Great job!
Fan in San Diego Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 prediction from fftoolbox: Finally, the main name to watch for the Bills could be Indianapolis' Jake Scott. The three-year veteran entered the offseason as a restricted free agent, but he didn't receive a tender offer from the Colts. That means Scott, a right guard, will hit the unrestricted free-agent market, where he'll no doubt be actively pursued. Scott has started in 32 consecutive regular-season contests for Indy, and he's one of the linemen chiefly responsible for keeping Peyton Manning upright. The 6-5, 295-pounder would be a vast improvement over Preston on the right side of the line. If Levy could land both Dockery and Scott that would be a major success in the free agency offseason in my opinion. Look to lock up Willis on maybe a 4 year deal this offseason not next year when he can hit the market. Then in the draft address lb and cb. I like the sound of that ! Would be some solid moves by Marv
Brandon Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 So about $2M a year in guaranteed money and probably a heavily back-loaded contract. Not bad. It probably isn't backloaded. Contrary to the popular interpretation, I think Marv actually meant that the Bills would no longer heavily backload contracts in his 'cash-to-the-cap' statements. At any rate, this is a very nice signing for the Bills.
Cornerville Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Damn!!! Must admit great job by the Bills with this signing! Eases the blow of losing NC a bit
Kelly the Dog Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 http://www.billszone.com/media/audio/2007....y.on.sirius.mp3 Thanks, JJ. It's from sirius radio a short while ago. Really sounds like a good guy who wants to play. Very glad we signed him. Good job Marv and Ralph and everyone esle responsible.
Kelly the Dog Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Shefter said we spent about 75 million today. If Dockery was about 49, and Whittle was 1, that means that Walker was 25 mil for five years (which I think is what Shefter said). That's the going rate for players this year.
IDBillzFan Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 He loves the coaches, he loves JP, he loves Willis. He loves 47 million, 48 million, 49 million...
