Actions speak louder than words. His actions portray a different person. Everyone sounds good in Gruden's little TV show, BTW.

That was either a "too soon" attempt to be funny, or a great way to **** on a team when they are down. Nice.

You realize that it is up to us not to let that happen, right? If we fill the stadium, the team can't leave.

Mostly I feel sad that Ralph never got to see his team win a Super Bowl. Every human has his deficiencies, and maybe Ralph's was loving his Bills too much. Maybe that manifested itself in wanting to be a part of decisions, but it also manifested itself in how much like sons some of his players turned out to be. Jimbo, Thurman, Andre, Bruce, etc. They all think of him as a father figure and a great man. Who are we but to agree? I also am sad that we are losing another WWII vet. We're losing our greatest generation, a generation that made this country what it is today. It was by them that the US became a real world power, and propelled our country through the years into the dominant force it is today. Ralph Wilson is the perfect example of a member of the greatest generation. RIP Ralph. You left a wonderful legacy, and I hope we can all strive to be half the man you were.

Agreed. Why the heck would anyone want that POS?

Dude - he's over 30 and wants at least 10 mil per year. Why would you even suggest that?

Yes, because trading your best WR away is a good way to improve the team. Only for a first or two seconds. Otherwise it hurts the team too much and we don't get much in return.

He's been hanging around with his mentor, Jerry "The Bag of the D" Sullivan too much.

Yeah, like McKelvin, Wood, Kyle Williams, Aaron Williams, etc. We lose Byrd but sign four other players, and idiots think the sky is falling. Give me a break.

Hey guys - I would guess his contract is incentive-laden, with playing time escalators. That's the way they are structured.

Give me a break.

Because we can't until today at 4 for some reason. I think it was because he wasn't with us for a whole season and he's playing at the vet minimum.

Don't know. 29 is kinda old for a LB to get a ton of money.

I would have no problem trading a single first round pick for Graham as you mention below. I would not give up two, as would be required for the non-exclusive tag. Yes, that pick you mention is an unknown commodity, but it could also be the next Bruce Smith or Jerry Rice. Two firsts is WAY too much for a TE.

Jimbo is the epitome of Buffalo, WNY, and the Buffalo Bills. You keep getting kicked in the face, and you keep going. People mock you, and you keep trying. You have seemingly insurmountable failure, and you keep going. That's what it is all about, folks.

We've awarded them with plenty of dollars. We're owed wins and playoffs. After all the BS over the past 10 years, we've given them enough dollars without matching wins.

Two first round picks for a non-QB? Are you insane?

For all those snickering at this, you should but down your beer, get your fat butt off the couch and try yoga. It can be very, very difficult and is a great workout. Here's a test: try a hover (sometimes called a plank) on your elbows for 30 seconds. Just on your elbows. If you don't know what a hover (or plank) is, google it. You will be humbled.

So you do realize we'd need to franchise Byrd first, right? Then have our trading partner work out a contract with him before he's traded. Two small details to an otherwise worthwhile plan.

Out of all the players on the team that should be traded, you pick one of the more talented ones? Holy **** really?

Et to means "you too", so I'm not sure what you were referring to - that everyone, including his coach is stabbing him in the back? Besides that, no way. They are just filling out the offensive staff appropriately, which is a darn good thing. Madrone saw talent but inexperience and addressed it.

I guess we'll see how good Schwartz is at fitting the scheme to the players. I'd prefer to keep good players and utilize them properly rather than starting over all the time.

It isn't any one memory, but really cool for me was watching him block on running plays. He was a beast.

It is pretty clear that Toronto can't support an NFL team. Bills games at Rogers are a joke. With such crappy fan support, why would this be expanded?

Why do people keep talking about it? Because some people have no idea what they are talking about, and post for the sake of bitching and whining.
