Bob in STL Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 He's not that good, but he's soooo much better than Kelsay lining up at OLB and trying to run with TE's. This organization is really something... Like it or not he was one of the better LBs on the team, and one of the few that could cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 They'll happily oblige because it'll save some cash. And this means he'll be ready to play this season, which makes IR'ing him even dumber. God I hate this team. You want to keep the roster spot vacant for 12 weeks? Seriously? For Mitchell? Really?

RayFinkle Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 This guy is willing to sacrifice a free LARGE pay check to get out of OBD. To me it just adds fuel to the fire in regards to how this ship is being run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 This guy is willing to sacrifice a free LARGE pay check to get out of OBD. To me it just adds fuel to the fire in regards to how this ship is being run. No he is looking to get an injury settlement, get signed somewhere else, and make more than he would just with the Bills. he knows the ship issailing without him, might as well try to get an exra payday. These are the guys we need to jettison!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 best play he's made since he's been here You mean not the game saving INT he made in the endzone against SD in 2008 to preserve a 20-14 victory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many players need to be disgruntled or express dissatisfaction before people realize something's amiss at OBD and has been for a long time?

truth on hold Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 He was a better than average LB when healthy, and he and Poz would have been a good combination. Key phrase though ... when healthy ... at his age and after 2 back to back season-ending injuries, how much does he have left in the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDorkula Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Why does this smell alot like Mario Haggan... Not the first time this has happened. Im starting not to like it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever Since '86 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 so what happens in an injury settlement??? does he just get more guaranteed money, or is he given guaranteed money and then released? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre Bill Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 This guy is willing to sacrifice a free LARGE pay check to get out of OBD. To me it just adds fuel to the fire in regards to how this ship is being run. Stop viewing the world through Troll eyes. This is an absurdly lopsided way to look at this event. I'm no Polyanna, but I don't look at a rainbow and complain about the rain . . . The guy wasn't helping and now he's gone. Just how does that spell DOOM? How many players need to be disgruntled or express dissatisfaction before people realize something's amiss at OBD and has been for a long time? Stop counting the ones that don't matter. Lets just jettison our best most experienced players, I think the fans are getting about as dumb as the organization. "Most experienced"? How about worrying about "most effective", or "most useful"? He was a better than average LB when healthy, and he and Poz would have been a good combination. Key phrase though ... when healthy ... at his age and after 2 back to back season-ending injuries, how much does he have left in the tank? He was a better than average LB . . . for one year when he was with the Giants! Why does this smell alot like Mario Haggan... Not the first time this has happened. Im starting not to like it... Mario Haggan?? . . . Really?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 He was the Li'l Donte of the linebacking corps as far as I was concerned. Talked big and played small. Later brah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeMonkey Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 so what happens in an injury settlement??? does he just get more guaranteed money, or is he given guaranteed money and then released? I believe he gets paid whatever amount was agreed upon by him and the Bills and he is released from his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills apparently didn't think so, since Poz and Andra Davis were the starters even before KM's injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 The timing is kind of interesting, don't you think? Maybe not everyone thought Kelsay is the best OLB on the team, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
