Stussy109 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 trent is nervously txting russ and dick: omg, wht iz happning? i thght we were bff? "I promise I won't be a glove wearing mary, and I'll sell my car so skooby can have the best car of all of us"
BillsFan Trapped in Pats Land Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 If he was in Buffalo, which I highly doubt, I think there is a better chance it's about Ken Lucas than Cutler or Scheffler.
Lori Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 At the top of "The Sports Insiders" on WECK, Allen Wilson quickly shifted the focus to Scheffler or someone else Cook represents, saying, "Trent Edwards is the Bills' guy." Then, he reminded host Joe Major that Cook also represents Brett Favre.
keepthefaith Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Bus cook is also the agent for Tony Schefler. We don't have a starting TE so maybe that is what's going on. Trent is loved by the top guys, he ain't going anywhere. Agree Trent should stay. He has a backup arm, a backup level of self confidence and a backup contract. Cutler has a starter's arm, starter's self confidence and gets a starter's paycheck.
keepthefaith Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 "I promise I won't be a glove wearing mary, and I'll sell my car so skooby can have the best car of all of us" I think Skooby has taken enough abuse on the car remark. Let it die.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 For what its worth, out of the two people I know with inside NFL knowledge, one hasnt texted me back and the other "strongly" doubts that this has anything to do with Cutler or Scheffler. I'm no help on this one folks.
IHFO Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Agree Trent should stay. He has a backup arm, a backup level of self confidence and a backup contract. Cutler has a starter's arm, starter's self confidence and gets a starter's paycheck. soooo Trent > Cutler right?
oak tree 12 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Is there any talk of this still on the radio? alan wilson on 1230 just now said if cook is in town its probably for schaffler but then threw in the cutler aspect as speculation. i didnt catch if he is actually in buffalo or rumor has it. why would he have to be in buffalo if he is? there are phones none of this makes sense. i guess what has to be verified is if cook is actually in buffalo.
keepthefaith Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 soooo Trent > Cutler right? As long as Jauron is the coach, Trent should stay.
extrahammer Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 We're holding a Cutleritis intervention tonight on Bills Fan Radio. We're here to help!
oak tree 12 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 unknown...they know he was, but don't know if he still is. when was cook in buffalo and who verified this?
Buffaloed in Pa Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I don`t think he`s in town about Cutler since he has not gotten permission to talk TRADE about Cutler from the Bronc`s. Just saw this on the NFL Network with Mike Lombardi. Must be Tony Time. Whew ,I didn`t want that whinny beech.
Kelly the Dog Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 At the top of "The Sports Insiders" on WECK, Allen Wilson quickly shifted the focus to Scheffler or someone else Cook represents, saying, "Trent Edwards is the Bills' guy." Then, he reminded host Joe Major that Cook also represents Brett Favre. We need Tim to explain something I think. Unless this was in the advanced stages, it seems hard to believe that Cook would fly to Buffalo for a face to face sit down. In other words, I would have to believe that a deal was agreed upon in principle as far as the teams go, and Cook is in town to renegotiate the new contract for his client, or the deal falls through. I don't think (but I am not actually sure) that an agent would go to a city to just inquire about how much a team would be willing to give up for one of his clients. That's not even his job, although I guess its feasible that if he can't strike a deal with the Bills for his client, there is no reason to discuss the trade. The point is, in this chicken or egg argument, I think a deal has probably been close to made, and Cook is here to see if he can get terms for his client that they both would sign off on. It could well be Scheffler, I doubt very much it's "seriously" about Cutler (although I'm sure Cook is trying to drum up as much pub as he can to use it against the Broncos to get Cutler a huge new deal with them. It could be about Lucas, although I doubt it as we have four CBs we're pretty happy with. It could be a low level FA we don't even care about to be signed as a back-up. My personal opinion, knowing nothing, is that the Bills are seriously trying to trade for Scheffler, and Cook is using this face to face meeting as leverage against the Broncos for Cutler.
IHFO Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 As long as Jauron is the coach, Trent should stay. well idk if you were aware but it is and I quote "hard to win in the NFL"

Interesting!

If anything, it is probably Scheffler. Thing is, we'll probably never know. I'm sure we would all be surprised at the deals that are discussed, and almost made, by NFL GM's that never materialize.
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 My personal opinion, knowing nothing, is that the Bills are seriously trying to trade for Scheffler, and Cook is using this face to face meeting as leverage against the Broncos for Cutler. If this was the case, I'd wonder why Cook would keep it all so hush hush. Why not tell Chris Mortenson that he (Cook) spent the day in Buffalo, and get it on the ESPN Bottom Line, for example? The idea is to get as much interest in Cutler as you can...making it public and putting more attention on the issue can only help his cause.
OrangeJuiceSimpson Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I don`t think he`s in town about Cutler since he has not gotten permission to talk TRADE about Cutler from the Bronc`s. Just saw this on the NFL Network with Mike Lombardi. Must be Tony Time. Whew ,I didn`t want that whinny beech. Good point. It didn't even occur to me that the Bills could not talk to Cutler or his agent.
cody Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 hey three3 was your username inspired by your iq testing? three3III would have been better
Alphadawg7 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I think Skooby has taken enough abuse on the car remark. Let it die. Its more played out and used up than Paris Hiltons vagina...
