BeastMode54 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 If he really would play forthe veteran minimum, or close to it, I would have no problem at all giving him a shot. We need a veteran WR, and if he truly is healthy, he'd be a worthwhile gamble per rotoworld: Free agent Javon Walker says he would be willing to sign a contract for the NFL minimum for another chance. "The thing about football right now is it’s not really about the money," said Walker, who collected over $14 million from the Raiders in exchange for 15 catches in two years. Walker also reiterated that he's healthy. "I’m 100 percent...finally, since I left Denver," said the 31-year-old. "People are going to say ‘Wow, that’s the Javon we remember.’ I returned 110 percent." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what it was but my guess is Darrent Williams' tragic and unfortunate death really f**ked him up. He's 31 and done. But probably a better pick up than Chad Jackson.

I was impressed by his willingness to give up much/most of his contract with the Raiders because he was too injured to live up to it. If he's truly healthy and doesn't want much money, heck yeah!

BuffaloBlood Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 No No No No No. The last thing you want is a guy with injury problems and has shown that football isnt too important to him. Are we really to the point where we want to sign Raider castoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we really to the point where we want to sign Raider castoffs? I don't think it was that football isn;t too important. I think it was the fact that his best friend bled out and died in his arms that changed his life for the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazed and Amuzed Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 No No No No No. The last thing you want is a guy with injury problems and has shown that football isnt too important to him. Are we really to the point where we want to sign Raider castoffs? Sounds strikingly similar to what one might have said about Randy Moss 4 years ago.

Lenigmusx Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Hey, I think he is worth a look at the price he is advertising. If he doesn't make the team what does it matter. I say bring him in and I bet he can be as good as T.O. was last year. He would at least provide a little insurance if Hardy is a bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawchukBills Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Wouldn't hurt... the only thing I'm concerned about is bringn in low-level WR free agents that could possibly take playing time away from Hardy and Johnson... I want to see what these two can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I would rather bring in out own talent and let it grow. I think the Bills may have signed enough players the last few years that nobody else wanted. Next, you'll be wanting to bring "The Holder" Cornell Green from the Raiders at Tackle.

Rob's House Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 The guy had talent at one time. He had some problems, but it he's recovered he could be a nice addition, and in no position to demand playing time. If he has nothing to offer he can always be cut.
