They don't like that. You have to understand, only they can 'SEE' the truth. They are the heralds of truth! For some on this board, the Bills could win the superbowl this year and they will talk about them being lucky one year wonders because the 'they din't do anything the previous years'. They won't understand that a lot of us would like to have conversations on the Bills strengths and weaknesses, but they take such ridiculous positions that the conversation is destroyed because someone responds to them and it changes to having to counter their miserableness.

Keep in mind, Clements is not the same player you remember playing in Buffalo.

Spiller.

STOP WITH ALL THESE SILLY FACTS! THEY AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR FOX NEWS SO THEY AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!

You convinced me to change my mind on whether we should keep this thread going.

It has to stop or it will destroy everything that we hold dear!

I'm glad we found something else ridiculous to panic over. I was afraid we would run out.

Great read. I enjoy articles that break down a player and back it up.

or...they are playing without pads which makes it tougher for offensive lineman to tie up defenders... Don't let that get in the way of a good panic though.

whether he was drunk when posting?

Technically, no player has to show up for anything.

That is quite the assumption. The BIlls are well aware of Byrd's position that sitting out is a huge blow. Just sitting out of football for a year would lower his salary whether it is with the Bills or not.

Can you provide the history of Marrone's NFL tenure and the rookie QBs that have been on teams he was coaching and played with?

It's really nice to see a player who was a posterboy for excess get things turned around. It should be done, but the NFLPA is made up of players and they don't want it which is why listening to them QQ about how their careers are short and how the NFL needs to do more for retired players rings hollow.

There's a ton of things on the internet with a cost associated that do quite well. Because some people fail does not mean that nothing can succeed.

Middle Linebacker != Guard

You're under the assumption that the staff believes there are holes that can be filled with available veterans that would be worthwhile. It's not like they look at a guy and say, we'll take a shot. It's not a choice between rolling the dice and a sure thing. It's about rolling two dies and one them having more possibilities.

I will never be able to get behind this pick because I live in constant fear that someone is going to make a parody of that song, "Let's have a Kiki" and every time he makes a play..someone will say, "Let's a have a Kiko!" All hope is lost.

The off-season screams that to me. New staff wants to see what they have before making commitments. The contracts they did give are short term and team friendly.

As I understood it, there was no 'official' offer because the numbers were too far apart. It also depends on what you mean by 'offer'. If you mean the Bills offered him a contract, then no. Levitre mentioned that they had talked with his agent.

Sign Byrd at 6 million? Easier said than done. Byrd apparently wants to be the highest paid safety in the game. Thank you.

People can mention it without it being 'sour grapes'. He's a 49 million dollar guard who's greatest asset is mobility. The Bills were trying to sign him so they likely weren't too concerned with any injuries.

That wouldn't make sense for the Bills. They'd rather take hit this year then next year when cap space will be tighter.

Byrd wants 9 million of that. Wood you could expect is going to be over 5 million. So 'the rest' isn't so much. Normal.

It seems like a crazy leap. I can only assume that people making that comparison weren't around when Smith was on the team. It was well known that he held out to avoid training camp. Then showed, was in amazing shape and ready to go so no one cared. Smith was also hands down one of the top two at his position and a consistent player. Mind boggling that the two would be compared.
