toddgurley Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 It did not say a whole lot, but billsdaily.com is reporting the Bills STILL have interest in ravens OT Jared Gaither. LINK: http://billsdaily.com/ the part is under the picture of CJ Spiller holding his jersey This would make some sense on why we did not address the Tackle spot in the earlier part of the draft- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthICE Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I still feel Wang can be the starter down the road. Now if we do this trade somehow, then WOO HOOO! If not, then its Everybody Wang Chung tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny3000 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Is is at all possible to trade Marshawn Lynch to Baltimore for Jared Gaither straight up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Band of Merriman Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 It says: "In other news, the Bills reportedly showed interest in Ravens OT Jared Gaither." This is not new news my friend!! Agreed, this isn't news. This is the same report that was circulated pre-draft. The possibility of trading Gaither was supposedly used as a way of motivating him to get into camp for workouts. I would love it if we could acquire him and sign him to an extension. This would allow us to develop some depth in our line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep2Moulds46 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Is is at all possible to trade Marshawn Lynch to Baltimore for Jared Gaither straight up? No. Baltimore is not trading their franchise LT for a guy who AT BEST would be a Number 2 RB, but might be the 4th best RB on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Is is at all possible to trade Marshawn Lynch to Baltimore for Jared Gaither straight up? In theory, yes, but they've already got two good backs. I was hoping they would've done something during the draft, both with Lynch and with Gaither. Oh, well.

toddgurley Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 No. Baltimore is not trading their franchise LT for a guy who AT BEST would be a Number 2 RB, but might be the 4th best RB on the team. no offense but gaither is not their franchise LT-its micheal oher (blind side ha ha) Gaither would have to move to RT or ride pine. And he is in the last year of his contract, and he wants a long term deal so if your the ravens, you either trade him, or LOSE HIM TO FREE AGENCY AT END OF YEAR- link:http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2010/4/26/1444851/florio-bills-sniffed-around-ravens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set to make $2.5 million in 2010, Gaither is seeking a long-term extension, and if Baltimore doesn't move him now, he's likely to leave as an unrestricted free agent after next season.

HurlyBurly51 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Just to be clear, even though it was posted today at Bills Daily, it is just regurgitating earlier reports from PFT. There is nothing new there that suggests new or ongoing talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning the Bills in the past maybe 3-5 weeks ago contacted Baltimore regarding Gaither. But if you read all the reports and stories Baltimore put Gaither on the trading block as a ploy to get Gaither to go to off-season workouts. Please stop posting stories from the past that we have all heard already, just because Buffalo Rumblings and Bills Digest and other Buffalo media sports outlets are about 2 weeks late picking up the story it doesn't mean its news. In conclusion.. Nowhere in those articles does it say the Bills are still interested so change your title of the thread.

lets_go_bills Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 If Gaither is as lazy as they say, I don't want him. He's in a contract year. He'll play his arse off and then hold out for a mega deal. This has Jason Peters 2.0 written all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastly Dareus Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 In the English language, nowhere is one word, if you're going to be a stickler for the English language. Im not being a stickler, Im just saying its obvious the articles where saying the Bills where interested in the PAST and that nowhere in the article does it say they are still interested. Theres a difference between hammering someone for a typo and hammering someone for misleading and not knowing the verb tense something is written in. Buffalo Rumblings is like BB.com - all the news that is fit to print as approved by OBD. Incorrect.... OBD doesn't approve every article especially opinion articles or analysis articles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
