The assistants are under contract thru 2015, but Schwarz,for some reason,thru 2016. The new HC, (if it's not him)might very well want to bring in his own staff.But,if the D is top 5, and the Teams are above average, why mess with success? It would be unusual, but how about a top notch HC and OC and new offensive assistants.,and keep the defensive and special teams coaches? Bills finally have the opportunity,and resources, to invest in a proven HC.

If indeed there was a power struggle...I guess we know who lost , or at least quit. Wonder where he ends up..he kind of got treated like crap by the FO..Pegula now has to make a major move for a top notch NFL head coach
-
coordinators dont get demoted, what idiot would accept that?
-
Not sure I want a guy who is already afraid of competing for the #1 job in Washington
-
"Dropped further back in the draft order"? Who cares? Bills don't have a first round pick,anyway. These coaches and players are professionals, and the goal is to develop a winning culture. You do that by actually WINNING. There would have been no value in putting Manual out there.
-
What does that mean?Play off caliber teams actually MAKE the playoffs.
-
I beleiee spiller also has an option..you cant give raises out to your free agents without knowing the camp hits for the guys you cut
-
it would be unusual to fire just the offensive staff and keep the defensive coaches. Incoming head coaches pick their own staff and i dont know if a candidate would go for that scenario. Speaking of coaches..Are their proven coaches who will be available? Who do you think would come here,and how much is pegual willing to pay?

Doesn't Orton have a player option for 2015?
-
of course , when people want to spend Terry's money, they seem to forget about the salary cap .Doesnt really matter how much money you have if there is limit to how much you can spend on players. if you try to re-sign the "Fantastic Four (Mario W , Marcell Dareaus, Kyle W and Jerry Hughes ), keep Spiller?..what if Orton exercises his option?
-
I browsed the responses didnt see this mentioned...it's one thing to spend money on a QB...but who do you cut , or NOT sign, in order to afford a QB? Would the Bills be better off improving the O line,maybe TE? Orton has an option to leave, might need TWO QB's...what about Dareus (possible suspension?need to replace him ,at least temporarily?),Spiller,Hughes,et.al It's not as simple as deciding which QB you want.
-
The numbers are kind of similar .Orton is 84-60 TD-INT,Fitz 111-99,so Orton is better there. Rating is similar
-
Goodell works for the owners so dont THEY have culpability here? And if he gets fired, or resigns, what makes you think the culture will magically improve?
-
Terrific first half, no Orton yet
-
I question the 'trade for' suggestions..how do you make the other team trade with us? It's not that simple, and of the three,Ponder is more likely to be available anyway.
-
Another way of looking at it...perhaps Marrone already has a good idea of what Williams and Woods can do and he wants to be sure about the other WR's (Graham and Hogan) and OL (getting playing time for Legursky and "Cujo",since Hairston and Glenn are not 100%.On game days,might only dress 7 OL and they have to be versatile.
Seeing what we've got,maybe showcasing?
-
There are also salary cap implications
-
Obscenities? Drunks storming the field? This post made sense ...for a couple lines. Every time fans storm the field, the Bills will end up forfeiting a game. That is how the suits will respond. Every time fans act like thugs, it will make us look bad and justify moving the team. Peaceful, civil demonstrations of support make sense,but dont act like idiots.
-
Keep in m ind the practice squad, injuries, suspensions and special teams when assembling a roster.
I personally hate the idea of 2 kickers, Doubt there will be 2 fullbacks, and Summers has ST value.
Could keep as many as 7 WR"s if Graham shows enough,because several of them ,again, play ST and the Bills are looking to improve there.
Wouldnt mind (assuming Pears and Hairston are healthy and stick around)Bills keeping Legursky, Hairston and Kuandjoe(sp?) as the 3 OL reserves, a couple of the young OL "hidden" on the PS.
Would they keep 4 TE's if Moeaki and Gragg both look good?
Looking forward to camp, will try to get there this week
-
I am not quite ready to dump Pears and Urbik, or bench Williams. Way too early to
assume three rookie lineman, including a 5 and 7, will make the 53, much less,start.
-
Ithought Tuel was on active roster for 11 game
s, which makes him ineligible for PS
-
I just can't agree with keeping 2 kickers...not convinced Manuel and Lewis can stay healthy..would consider 3 QB's. A number of these guys are PS eligible,like Henderson Richardson, Cockrell,etc. I wouldn't write off Pears and Legursky. Hairston isn't 100% and I cant see going into the season with 3 rookie OL. What's Unga every done?
-
Doesn't the "spend to cap' rule kick in this year, or something like 99%? I hope Golisano:
*keeps the Bills in WNY
*gets a new,efficient ,economical,multi-use,domed stadium (or re-builds the Rlph to modernize and improve it)
*if it is at current site,improve access and parking
*invest in coaching staff,get the best staff possible, improve amenities,make players WANT to come to Buffalo
-
Watch him go somewhere else to mature and succeed?And get nothing for him? The Bills probably wouldnt spend the cap savings wisely and I wonder what kind of cap hit would occur. This might work if Buffalo, was ,well,, not Buffalo..if it was team in a desirable city (in the minds of players) with a well known and respected staff ,this might be motivation.
Do Dots Connect to Polian, Reich & Rivers?

If you signed him as a free agent,hHe would be 34/35? Would want ,what,20/ million a yYEAR ? Doesnt matter how much ONEY Pegulal has,there's a slalary cap, o who DONT you sign if you go after Rivers? If yo are dreaming about tgrading for him this off season...what would the Bills be able to give up?
