billsfan89 Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Sign him and draft Mt.Cody in round 2. Having both of them would be a good foundation and make it so both won't have to play 3 downs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koufax Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 IMO, this is a sal cap move more than anything else. No cap in 2010, but I agree it is a financial decision as AJ Smith tries to continue to turn over his roster, which he usually does pretty proactively and occasionally a year or two too soon. I don't know what kind of 2012 Jamal will have, but I have no reason to doubt his ability to perform in 2010. Remember also, in terms of the wear and tear, he came into last season in better shape and a little lighter than usual, and last season he took the whole season off for a freak injury to the triceps that should not be affected by his size/weight. So his body got a full season off from the hits and wear and tear and everything other than his triceps (which the physical would check out pretty aggressively) I would expect would be BETTER than at the start of 2009 when he was a recent pro bowler penciled in as a key part of the D for everybody's Super Bowl darling. If we lose Jamal because another team is more appealing to him, nothing we can do about that. But I don't see any reason we would not be one of the most interested teams or have performance/usefulness questions about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meark Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 No salary cap in 2010. Yeah, but they saved a 1 million dollar roster bonus by cutting him.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 No salary cap in 2010. OOps! I meant that they didn't think he was worth his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Would be perfect fit for the next 1-2 years, hopefully we can find his replacement in the meantime. Please get him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfish Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I missed the memo a week ago that Casey Hampton was given a new contract. However, it's his 10th season, and would be Jamal Williams' 13th season, I believe. Big rigs tend to blow tires easily. Just sayin'. True but would Jamal opt to go be a back-up for probably less money in Pitt over being a starter and making more money with one of the teams desperate for a true NT like Williams?

RocBillsfan Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 <H3 class=free>Jamal has four immediate suitors</H3>5:10PM ET Jamal Williams | <A href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=sdg">Chargers Top Email The San Diego Chargers will be looking for an heir apparent to Jamal Williams as the starting nose tackle in this year's draft. Possibilities include Alabama's Terrence Cody, Tennessee's Dan Williams and UNC's Cam Thomas. However, one Chargers beat writer thinks that the future might come sooner than later at the position. While breaking down the Chargers' possible game plan for April, Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune wrote, "Jamal Williams might be too expensive ($6 million) to bring back, and even if he returns for 2010, he is almost certainly finished as a Charger after that." On Thursday, Kassim Osgood had an interesting tweet: "Jamal Williams is officially gone too! who is next? stay tuned." Acee confirmed the report quickly thereafter. Unless Williams' health has declined so rapidly that he can't play at all, we'd expect him to draw serious interest from the Bills -- who need a NT to convert to a 3-4 -- as well as the Cardinals, Chiefs and Dolphins, who are looking for an upgrade.

Justice Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Here's my question to you all, how would you feel if J. Williams was our one and only BIG signing? How would you feel then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkc Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Here's my question to you all, how would you feel if J. Williams was our one and only BIG signing? How would you feel then? there is not going to any big signings. We will get 3,4,5 maybe 6 players to help with the rebuild. How many free agents are worth big contracts this year anyway ?

bkc Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I agree, but what if JW was the main signing? Would you be happy? if jw is part of a group of three or 4 solid guys I think that is a good start. Lets say foote, williams and maybe porter . how would that be What I think is that the new free agant rules killed us. Under normal circumstances there would have been a decent amount of off line talent available and I think Ralph might have been in a buying mood.

Koufax Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Here's my question to you all, how would you feel if J. Williams was our one and only BIG signing? How would you feel then? I would be a little disappointed, but overall not too unhappy. I just don't see us really addressing O-Line or QB with a pro bowl free agent, which is what Jamal is, so he could be our BIG signing, and then sign role players and draft well. Of course if we could have a big money spree and land ourselves O-Linemen the caliber of Dockery and L. Walker all our problems could be solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
