To add to and expand, I am willing to bet former players like Bledsoe, Pat Williams, antone Winfield, etal really do not have good things to say about the Bills org. They all love the fans, but to be honest the Org has sucked. Being further honest, there isn't that much to do there and more often than not the weather isn't that great. Add to that WNY is one of the most taxed places in the US and it doesn't make for a very good situation.
We have a 90 something year old owner who refuses to sell the team or step aside and let someone else run it. There is no succession plan in place, it is a small market team who's owner consistantly cries about how tough it is to make it in the NFL. If you look at the Bills history with Ralph Wilson as owner, outside of the Bill polian era, the team sucks. I have posted the history in great detail before and the proof is undeniable. This team has historically stunk and one man has been the main guy from day one till now. ONLY because of Polian did this team have any real success and respectability.
Leaving your fandom out of it, why would you go to Buffalo? Sorry but no way in hell would I sign there if I was a quality Free agent. An Unsure future I am dragging my family into with a team that has a history of losing and showing no signs of changing. I would have heard from several of my fellow NFL players that have played there about how crappy it is. Add to that I am going to pay more in taxes IE less in my pocket than I would in most other places.
Until Ralph is no longer owner, We get a better/ NAME GM and HC in place, we draft crazy well and start building a winning culture again, we aren't going to attract any high end Free agents.
