2020 Our Year For Sure

Agreed. When these free agents get signed right away, its wrong to assume it means there was no other interest. The Bills laid out a good offer immediately when the clock hit 12, and his agent probably got on the horn to see if anybody else would outbid those numbers. Once he finds out this is the best he's gonna get, there's no reason to delay. Doesn't mean nobody else wanted to sign him. Guess we'll have to agree to disagree. If there was more interest, the Bills would've had to go higher. If there were less, they could've gone lower. I think the eventual contract gives you a pretty good idea of the demand for the player around the league, except in cases where a team grossly overpays, like Washington and Oakland have done in recent years.

I was only addressing the part I quoted, which was a blanket statement.

There is quantifiable evidence for this, PtP. The contract the given FA ultimately signs tells you exactly how much interest there was.

KD still wins, but good work all around.

Derrick Brooks says, "Hold up, cracka."

If we're counting on uniforms to "bring us" wins, we might as well give up now.

Did they? I don't remember them as much as commenting on Peters...

I've given up on the guy, but even so, this can only be a good thing. Here's to hoping he proves we haters wrong.

Not at all...what does Peters have to do with this year's offensive line?

What is the fetish with Levi Jones? I don't even think he's as good as either Walker or Butler, who have both been damn good the last couple years.

You win

Personally I like the dark blues, and while the throwbacks are awesome, I prefer them a couple times a year. Makes it seem like more of a special occasion.

:lol: San Jose is right, I bet the guys will never let him forget it. Until he gets cut, of course.

Wow.

This is the guy who said the Bills were interested in Owens a good day before we found out he was visiting, and everybody said he was nuts. I'd trust what he has to say. We probably all agree this can only be good news.

Oy. When does the season start again?

I'm a fan of Rutgers, but never thought Leonard would make much of a pro, and still don't. He's not athletic enough to play HB in the NFL.

We're not even sure he's as good as the players we already have. What is there to get so excited about...

As long as we don't give him a contract that makes us hesitant to cut him, I can't complain with giving him a chance. But honestly I wouldn't expect him to be one of our five best linemen.

I do sometimes like to get my morning started with a good beating, but it usually isn't dead horses.

Levy was.

Looks more like a bagel to mine eyes, actually.

I'm really hoping to see an improvement out of Poz this year. Last year of course was his first coming off a major injury, and he played alright for a guy with so little experience. But the run defense really needs him to step up IMO. I'm looking for some more impact plays, like tackles behind the line. And hopefully he'll stop over-running the play and punish some ballcarriers. We need him to take care of business in the middle, and maybe become a bit of an emotional leader at some point. Its natural for the guy calling the plays to set the tone, and if he can raise his level of play, he can be that guy.

If he can reach his potential, probably everyone not named Stroud. Why not give him that chance? Its not like we'd be guaranteeing him $10 million. There's nothing to lose here.
