I think that is likely the goal. I think we'll see some sort of 'degree' program in "Football Science" or something where they will take minimal classes and eventually eliminate that as people get used to the idea. I mean, how annoying it when you have a great athlete and he has to spend all that time learning to read!

II'm not exactly a fan of Stevie's antics...but...this seems like an offseason thread for sure.

No. Obviously the article is pretty light on sustenance.

Yeah, I have to say, at this point...it's done.

Why do you people keep giving him attention? Every time you post about him, you cement his job security.

Let's see if we can beat the thread when the bills cut him and the pats signed....oh, the moaning that went on in that thread

It's just a ploy! They will bring him back right before the game against the Bills! He will Score 14 touchdowns and have 784 yards in the game. All the people who believe the Bills can do wrong after 13 years of losing will have eat crow!

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com says they are looking at him as competition for Doug Free at Right Tackle.

You'd have to be ridiculous sensitive for that to even register a glimmer of annoyance, rage, or whatever

I have found myself to disagree with John Wawrow a lot on here, but I give him tremendous respect for realizing that the way sports reporting works has changed and for being on here and engaging with people. There is a lot of Buffalo media that I won't read or listen to, but I will read John's articles because he is here. It's likely better to message the mod, but I can understand his disdain for a having a moderator make the comment.

Are you really advocating that if they didn't intend to sign him to the contract at the number he wanted that they should have just let him walk? That is...an...'interesting' point of view.

I'd really rather the Bills weren't party to Best's death.

Players should be paid and allowed to take endorsement deals (imagine how the pros would scream!). The NCAA needs changes, but I'm not sure it being outright eliminated would be the best option.

It was more of...well, we could have traded down to get more picks and taken best instead of spiller later on.

Some of you people are not bright. All NFL teams already employ analytics. Maybe they should just put 'ANALYTICS' on somebody's office door so the dum dums can understand and stop with the....but....but he said there would be an analytics DEPARTMENT. Anyways, how about we encourage and laud the original poster instead of continuing to hijack his thread into yet another B word session. ------------------------------- Unfortunately, I can't help, but I offer you my kudos, Rockee96 and wish you well.

If the Bills would cut everyone then we wouldn't have to complain about these suck players!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's some nice stuff to hear.

They're quite cozy. It would be nice to eat with a fork again though.

You have a much higher opinion of the average TSW poster than I do. I figured it was closer to:

DOES NOT MATTER! IF BILLS REALLY WANTED TO GET IT DONE THEY WOULD BE WORKING ON IT NOW! This is the Byrd situation all over again! This team will never learn because ralph is cheap and russ will just sign a big free agent to sell tickets.

The bills aren't talking he starts at 5-10 though...unless you have other information beyond what's been reported.

Where has reported that? The only thing I've seen is Bills talking top 5 and Byrd talking top overall from schefter.

There's probably a lot of factors taken into account such as lease deals and teams that have other holdings. The Bills might be lower, but they have almost no debt.

Should be longer imo. Which they have every right to do and should do. Players need to be accountable to the team and league for their image. These execs should have been fired. They were too high up the food chain for that though so it should have been much longer.

He uses one tactic. Scorched Earth. He hopes the other team blinks. I'm ok with the Bills not blinking and tagging him two years in a row at which point Byrd wouldn't get anywhere near what he wants. You give in and he'll be back.
