BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 6, 2007 Author Posted March 6, 2007 Also of note, on Chris Brown's blog on BB.com he says that Rhodes' flight into Buffalo was delayed, but that he did arrive in the afternoon. Says there doesnt appear to be anything "imminent" with Rhodes in terms of a signing. Which means Rhodes will be a Bill by 5
DC Tom Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 how much money does that save? About eight cents. He was still overpaid.
ThreeBillsDrive Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I highly support this move. He had zero impact on the team during his year here.
Koufax Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Good move. We have enough young line depth behind our projected starters that I don't see him filling in at all. I think our guard signing this year will have a slightly larger impact than last winter's guard signing.
Fan in San Diego Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I would expect them to cut Gandy or is he an UFA and just won't be resigned ?
John from Riverside Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Marv is sending a message to his O linemen..... You better run block or you are gone And while I had no problem with Tuten's pass blocking you just cannot be a one dimensional OL on this team.....we need to be able to move the pile in the running game
Ozymandius Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 He sucked in all phases. I mean, it's not like Duke Preston can runblock and he's still on the team.
RayFinkle Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Seems like only a year ago there was a thread started here saying how good he was going to be for the Bills.....oh wait, that was a year ago.
2003Contenders Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I give Marv some credit here. Reyes was one of the biggest free agent signings we had last season. When he was not performing last season, rather than being stubborn and trying to insist that the signing was a good one, the team elected to move on without him after the bye week.
Bill from NYC Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 He sucked in all phases. I mean, it's not like Duke Preston can runblock and he's still on the team. I am not sure exactly what you mean by the above Oz Man. Don't worry, it's probably me. I wanted Reyes to make it. He is from Queens and is said to be active in the community. Simply put, he couldn't play. I suppose this is why Carolina drafted the kid from Alabama. The whole situation tells me that it is always a good thing to draft blockers. Don't misunderstand; our left side looks pretty damn good, but imo it never hurts to have solid, young players ready in case of injury, etc. This is why I would prefer a highly touted rookie to keeping Gandy. Jmo.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Seems like only a year ago there was a thread started here saying how good he was going to be for the Bills.....oh wait, that was a year ago. He should have been good for the Bills. However as they say, you can't measure heart.

If Reyes indeed was a good pass protector - a coveted skill - I'd think twice about canning him.
BuffaloBilliever Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I strongly disagree with this. Sorry, just had to be different... haha
Bill from NYC Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 He should have been good for the Bills. However as they say, you can't measure heart. I sense that if he really was any good, Fox wouldn't have let him walk, let alone drafted his replacement a year earlier. Either way, it matters little now. Who do you think will line up at RG this season?
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 6, 2007 Author Posted March 6, 2007 Who do you think will line up at RG this season? You cant stop the Whittle. He has blocking powers far greater than mortal men.
