Yeah, but I can see them having made their best offer (contract to Brown), and when declined, moving on. That doesn't mean that they wouldn't revisit it if Brown meets them in the middle a little bit.
Some of our best players of recent years have been FA's as well. Poyer, Hyde, LoRax, Incognito, and even Mario. Not wanting to come to Buffalo is overplayed, even now. There are only so many NFL jobs, and only so much cap room.
One things for sure, he's doing a masterful job marketing himself. He owns the news right now.
A lot of people think he's nuts, but he might just be crazy brilliant.
It's probably a little bit of both. Probably takes a bit more money to accept the trade to Buffalo, over say San Fran.
It's just the reality of where we are right now.
