Let's say the Bills did 'lowball' Dareus and got him to sign a below market deal. So what? What do you care? You should be ecstatic, it affords the Bills a greater opportunity to sign more quality players in theory. Tell me on player Whaley has lost due to money? I can't help but ask when would you be happy? If the Bills overpaid for a player or underpaid for a player that made the team better? I don't envision Whaley holding a gun to Dareus' head and saying 'either your signature or your brains are going on that contract'

I am also not a Rex blind loyalist. I am someone who will not give Mario a pass for how he played. The two do not coincide except for Mario to give an excuse why he didn't give max effort. He didn't like what his boss was asking him to do so he did a bad job at it. If any of us do that there are consequences. To stick up for Mario is mind boggling to me, much less given the fact he did it to the team you support! Mario was getting rewarded with huge sums of money, the least he could of done was give it his best effort.

glad to see Taylor ready to get to work and want to play for the Bills. Don't give PTR a hard time, it's easy to get nervous about losing the only real QB prospect the Bills have had in years.

Ok, so from his stats he looked to have a great start in the league his rookie and 2nd season. Looks like an injury in the third season and then this last year he was below average from his first two seasons.

could he replace Kyle after this season?

Miller was a third round rookie. The fact he played so much is really promising. He played pretty good showing potential until his injury. He will be fine.

K-9 you don't want to debate with someone who up above said he is hoping someone plays well against his team. The other poster is putting his own personal agenda first. Sound familiar? No wonder he sides with Mario.

whatever. Let's see how many more times you stick up for BB and the Pats.

Mario will have the best attitude ever, as long as the Dolphins play him exactly how he thinks he should be used. #notaprofessional

I guess we have a different view of whining, vs stating a fact. Belichik cutting players this late in FA and so close to the draft is a clear sign of disrespect for the player. Belichik had all this information on Easley awhile ago. If this is just business cut him awhile ago. Let both parties move on. Belichik takes everything personally and thus feels he has to prove points. My point was due to the Pats success Belichik gets away with it. That success is more attributed to Brady than to Belichik.

Not sure of your agenda. No conspiracy what so ever. Just facts. Brady is an amazing QB. With out him BB looks like BB pre Brady. I also find it funny you stick up for the Pats and BB, who is by far the biggest Baby . Remember the lose to the Bills in Buffalo a few years ago? Or just this year at the coaches meetings? Sorry bud, BB is not what he is with out Brady.

i don't see Whaley drafting for need w the first pick .He will take BPA, whoever that is, if it falls in line with a position of need, so be it. Whaley got a stud in the second round. He can find someone better than what was described above.

John, you are one of the more level headed posters and I respect your opinion. Letting A wine ferment will produce a better product if the right grapes are being allowed to age. Otherwise you end up with vinegar. Much like Tebow.

None, Tebow still would of stunk! As for Prescott, I'm not sure about him. He is worth a fifth rounder to see.

It's not about being mean, it's about respect. BB has little to no respect for any players not named Brady. If it wasn't for the NFL's rules NE would not be the franchise they are. Just think Miami would have ruled the 80's w Marino if all things were the same.

I didn't see this mentioned, but the timing of these moves is also a sign of no respective for the players by the Pats. Cutting these guys this late in FA and so close to the draft means they will get less money and also most likely have to sit till post draft. Sure some team may panick between now and then and grab one with extra cap space ala Jags.

If the Bills can be 6-5 heading into December I like the chances of ending the playoff draught.

This hurt the Bills big time last year against the Giants. There was one other game it showed too, can't recall which one right now.

I think we are in the same page. Impact player to me is a starter who belongs starting, like Darby. They don't have to contend for ROY honors, but show why they were drafted in the first two rounds.Solid contributor is a guy who is either a ST standout and hopefully sees the field for 10-15 snaps a game in relief.

Yep, Whaley has to find two impact players in this draft. And one more that will be a solid contributor this year. A solid draft with these FA signings and what the Bills kept, let's hope it means the playoff drought ends.

All of these signings seem like exactly what Buffalo was set up to do in FA. Almost everyone of these guys has game experience and/or is a ST player. Love the Blanton, Brown, and Velasco signings. Upgrades right away over Rambo, Bradham, and Urbik. I like Browns ability to cover and in this D I think his skill set is better suited than Bradham.

If there was no gun, Smith is still alive.

I doubt the league is in any hurry to reinstate him. If it doesn't happen before the draft this is irrelevant.

Wow. Scary and sad. i cant believe what people will kill some one over. I hope someone asks this 30 year old if he is glad he had a gun with him. He takes someone's life and also throws his away in the heat of the moment . Ridiculous and pointless , tragic.

I missed this about the cap space for 2017. Thanks guys for shedding the light on that for me. This now makes a ton more sense in regards to Glenn and Gilmore. I think Whaley has assured both these players they are going to get paid, they just need to play out the season till Whaley gets some cap space. Whaley may even have assured them that barring a career ending injury he will sign both to long term deals. Crazy thought on my part?
