apuszczalowski Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Uhmmmm, its said he may retire due to the neck injury and that when they tried to deal him to the Giants there were problems in the physical due to the neck injury No way the Bills even look at him as an option
K-Gun10 Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2836410 [/qu No thanks
nemhoff Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 without the injury I would take him. If the donkeys are dropping him, he must be pretty run out because their defensive front 7 are already in rough shape.
The_Real Posted April 13, 2007 Author Posted April 13, 2007 Uhmmmm, its said he may retire due to the neck injury and that when they tried to deal him to the Giants there were problems in the physical due to the neck injury No way the Bills even look at him as an option I saw that he might retire I just didn't think it was a real possibility. He seems a bit young to retire but LB is a tough position and he could have gotten run down faster than his age indicates. If so, that blows. He was pretty good just a few years ago. The Real
Chilly Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 without the injury I would take him. If the donkeys are dropping him, he must be pretty run out because their defensive front 7 are already in rough shape. Without the injury he wouldn't be released either. I do agree with you tho.
nichebiche Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Uhmmmm, its said he may retire due to the neck injury and that when they tried to deal him to the Giants there were problems in the physical due to the neck injury No way the Bills even look at him as an option where in this article does it mention that he may retire??? if he passes a Bills team physical, i'd say yes. if not, no.
Paup 1995MVP Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Al Wilson was a monster in the middle when healthy. We could definitely use him if he is healthy. But he really messed up his neck while either blocking or covering on a punt in a late season Sunday night game last year against Seattle. He was carted off on a stretcher strapped to the headboard. I very much doubt he is going to play much again if at all. He probably has an injury similar to what ended Chris Spielman's career here in Buffalo. I think middle linebacker could be the most violent position in the game.
apuszczalowski Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 where in this article does it mention that he may retire??? if he passes a Bills team physical, i'd say yes. if not, no. It wasn't that article, It was another one I read, I believe on PFT where they said he was supposed to hold a press conference today where chances are he was going to announce his retirement
sarmanuscg07 Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 YOU GOTTA FEEL FOR THE GUY THOUGH. He seems nice enough and i think that IF he passes a physical for the Bills then we SHOULD sign him up. Plus he says its not about the money and he was the #1 leader on that broncos team. Under those circumstances can anyone pursuede me otherwise?
Kelly the Dog Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 It wasn't that article, It was another one I read, I believe on PFT where they said he was supposed to hold a press conference today where chances are he was going to announce his retirement They did. But then they posted a later one that says he isn't retiring. POSTED 3:02 p.m. EDT, April 13, 2007 BRONCOS TO RELEASE WILSON A league source tells us that the Denver Broncos will be releasing linebacker Al Wilson. That's the gist of the press conference that Wilson has called for 4:00 p.m. EDT Friday; Wilson will announce the news, and will express his appreciation to the Denver fans. We're told that Wilson will not be retiring. Instead, the plan is to get healthy, and to continue to play football. Wilson, 29, has spent his entire eight-year career with the Broncos.
KOKBILLS Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Terrific player. Exactly...And based on His comments today He has no intention of retiring any time soon...Of coarse He's gonna have to pass a physical 1st... So who do the Bills Play in Week #1?
truth on hold Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 we just let go of a once great linebacker in spikes with injury questions. wilson's injury problem is potentially a lot worse. we're all set to fill that need in the draft. definite pass on wilson
DrDawkinstein Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 he already FAILED a Giants physical... i dont think anyone will pick him up.
Kipers Hair Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 If he were signed to a performance laden contract...why not?

todd Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 If we released spikes because of injury concerns, why would we sign Wilson who has injury concerns? Because we recognize his name?
