2020 Our Year For Sure

No. That seems illogical. If you're taking one side of an argument, it follows that you believe that course of action is beneficial, in other words, it won't suck. Seems like all you're really pointing out is that people on here disagree, which is obvious and inevitable. But what they're disagreeing on is how to not suck.

Thats perfect to me, as soon as you show me the OTHER 31-year-old WR on the market who averages 900 yards a season and excels in the exact role we're seeking: intermediate passing routes. No, the Bills will go into the season with a 7th round sophomore with 10 career catches as their best hope to fill a starting WR position.

What you guys are missing when you bring up the fact he walked away from $6M for one year, is he could've made more than that in his first year with a new team without averaging that much in annual salary. For example, he could've signed somewhere for 4 years, $16M. Thats only an average of $4M/season. But if $8M of that money is guaranteed, he still did the right thing by turning down the Jets' offer.

Average players? The guy is a 4-time Pro Bowler and a 2-time First-Team All Pro...

This is ridiculous. For this one fckin guy, can't we just overpay and get him signed? They gave Buffalo every chance to make this thing happen. There is no other free agent that comes close to Coles! He was the only guy we could get who'd draw attention from defenses, allowing Evans to get loose. And we completely botched it. Jesus, you try to be optimistic, but this team just refuses to throw you a friggin bone once in awhile.

Pat Moran insists that Buffalo has not signed Coles, that their offer falls at least a bit short of he wants, that Coles' agent is trying to set up visits with other teams, and that Coles may come back to Buffalo at some point if he can't find something better.

Thanks, Tim. I've read rumors that Tom Modrak is high on Tenny DE Robert Ayers, possibly to the point that Ayers will be the number one defensive end on the Bills draft board. Have you heard anything to that effect? Any thoughts on Ayers, or the Bills approach to the DE position in general?

Cinci is also meeting with both Mike Furrey and Ashley Lelie (link), which can only be good news for us.

Summed up perfectly.

Either my computer is acting up, or their site just crashed, so I can't check. But I believe he only had a handful of posts. Don't believe it till its confirmed.

Link and quote added. Hope its true...

Just thought I'd pass it along. Can I quote people from another board? EDIT: Well after looking at this thread, I guess I'm not breaking any rules. http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showthread.php?t=171126

My thoughts exactly. I did a bit of a double-take.

There ya go! I was referencing LB Jamie Winborn and LG Kendall Simmons, who've both been in for visits.

Nobody was talking about it till you brought it up. Its like saying, "I think he'll get suspended for 10 full seasons. Oh, you think thats insane? Well, here we are talking about it, so obviously its possible."

Fred Jackson is the contingency plan, and he might be better than the original plan.

Great news, thanks! Buffalo Rumblings had been speculating that Buffalo wasn't going to do much until the Coles and Peters situations were resolved, so they'd know how much money they'd have available. I wonder if they've got a pretty good estimate on what they'll be spending on the two of them, which would mean the deals are almost done. Just speculation.

We've already had 2 out of 3.

From Pat Moran of Fox Sports. Getcha popcorn ready....

It was reported yesterday that they gave Coles a deadline...I can't think that deadline would be much later than tonight.

Soooo...that wouldn't be taking a corner.

link Maybe a speck of good news, Bills fans.

Yup. Just pay him and be done with it.

Thanks a bunch. Thats good news, if its true.
