Given TO's contract with the Cowboys, is EM really being too unreasonable?
EM is clearly the best WR we have. Unless Lee Evans has a break out year, LE only benefits from having EM around to take the double coverages.
As far as I am concerned, the Bills hold all the cards in this as long as his contract is under the cap. If I were calling the shots, I would keep him on the roster for as long as he fits under the cap. I would never trade him to the Pats or let him go to another division rival. If it turns out we need the extra cap space later, I would wait until then to make the decision. By that time, the other teams will have spent their money and, as each day goes by, EM's position gets worse and worse.
In any event, there is no reason to jump the gun now unless some team offers us something that we just cannot refuse. If we do trade or release him though, he will be missed.
