That pretty much says no LT in our 1st round, likely a WR or CB then.

QBs are held at a high premium in this league. Tannenhill will go in the first round, for the same reason Locker and Pounder did (and almost Daulton too).

He must be holding our for more money than anyone is willing to give him. Someone has to tell him that he's a former 7th round, always injured scrub whose success is mostly due to Fitz's quick decision making ability. He's not an elite LT and everyday that goes by, he's likely going to get less money. In fact, for this he should fire his agent. Bell's likely his only player and he though he'd hit pay dirt by gaining an LT as an agent.

And there's our WR "FA" pick-up. Draft here we come. I'm guessing OT or CB. Is it bad that Buddy has become so predictable? He basically says what he's about to do.

It is actually very easy to see how this will play out. My money says he ends up as back-up to Marcia.

I'm mildly shocked there have been no calls for Lee Evans. Will he be out of football?

Many, this is hard to believe. Ralph is cheap and stuff. Anyways, love love love the signing. Here's hoping he hasn't even seen his best days yet. Drastically changes the draft. I hope we now go LT, CB, or OLB.

Mario is ours. He wouldn't be wasting this much time when there are millions on the line. He's as good as signed - will be sealed tomorrow.

Of course he has another visit PLANNED. His agent would be an idiot if he didn't already line up another visit. We all have back-up plans. Do we all think the Bills don't have other DEs in mind either? I would feel very foolish walking away from $110 million on the table (which could easily be taken off the table if the Bills sign someone else in the time period he's "thinking about it"). I agree. If he walks, it's obvious what his Clabo-like intentions are. The Bills should move on.

There has to be some waiter out there serving these people. Let's get on it! Post!

Don't we get any points for having free agent leverage visits? A free draft pick?

I'd hit it...with lights off...in a drunken stupor.

Now, that's a bit much. Sure, he should be reprimanded in some way, but lose his license? Sometimes people forget that doctors are actually doing something great for society and that their patients and people in general would be the ones that would suffer if he lost his license. Having loose lips certainly does not equate to practicing bad, negligent medicine.

Problem is the Bills make "competitive" offers to a lot of players, yet they always sign with the other team. Make me wonder what their definition of "competitive" is. Or, said another way, Ralph Is Cheap.

I really hope this move is to save money so the team can spend it one someone else, not just to save money. I guess we shall see.

C'mon, sure he does. He's a runner!

The fact that there has been no crying on Twitter bodes very well for these negotiations. It almost seems like professions are dealing with this professionally. I may be wrong come tomorrow though. We'll see.

Sorry, but this is exactly how Brandon wants you to feel. Excited because we are being "aggressive". Too bad we've read this book before. We are being just as aggressive as we were when we played hard to get Clabo, Unfortunately there are huge gap between being "aggressive" and actually signing players.

Eli success and the Giants SB win shows why Polian was fired. Eli has a fantastic team built around him. He doesn't need to single-handedly win each game like Peyton did. In fact, maybe they would get to the SB, but if Eli went down, the Giants would still be a playoff contender. They certainly wouldn't win just 1-2 games.

...because Goodell told him to sign with Philly. And thank God for that. The Fitzpatrick extension could have been worse, it could've gone to Vick.

Yes, he was a visionary, a man before his time. Let us all share in a moment of silence

Funny thing is, all the QBs mentioned in this thread will not make it to the 3rd round, maybe not even the 2nd, once the hype machine is running on all cylinders. GMs seem to lose all sense of reality when it comes to QBs and the draft. Just look what happened last year.

Addition by subtraction. Fitz in second half was completely different from Fitz in first half of season.

What was Nix suppose to say? "Well, winning's hard in the NFL and besides, we lost all those games due to x, y, and z." However, what Nix says usually rings true. Edwards is gone.
