GG Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 ESPN reports that Bills will look for Drew to take a substantial pay cut by March 1, or risk being released. Also, Cards may be interested in Henry, current asking price 2nd Rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Could be released on March 1st if he doesnt take a pay cut. I like TD playing hardball. Also said suitors are lining up for Travis, like the Cards, and it will take a 2nd rounder for him. Don't know if these have been covered, I've been away.

stevestojan Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Mort was just talking about league rumors, and said the Cards are looking at Travis Henry, adn "it will prbably take a 2nd rounder to get him"... He then said Drew could be RELEASED March 1st, if he doesn't restructure again. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's take some of Bledsoe's money so we can apply it where we need it most. In a kicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP-era Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 I love this move and it is EXACTLY the right thing to do. I bet Drew goes Henrys route and claims that he should be traded to start somewhere else. Isnt worth much, maybe a 4th rounder. Cards interested in Henry, how about a package deal for both Drew and Henry! Drews numbers tell the story and you dont pay a guy 6.5 mil to play mediocre/crappy! Especially with your highly regarded future on the wings. Sorry for the Drew related post but breaking news is authorization for a post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking more along the lines of the left hand side of the line to protect JP. Use one of the second rounders on the Nugent kid and let Lindell go. Edit: Second rounders if We get another one for Henry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Let's not put words in people's mouths. Mort said that the hardline stance to be taken on Bledsoe COULD be a sign that the Bills MAY be ready to go with Losman. There is still a strong possibility of another vet joining the team in the spring and there being a three way battle in camp to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want thim to take a pay cut because he IS going to be the back up next year. 207145[/snapback] No wait a minute. Mort did NOT say that Losman is the starter next year. What he said was that the Bills are ready to go with Losman. Thats not the same thing in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I heard that too. They want thim to take a pay cut because he IS going to be the back up next year. 207145[/snapback] The tears of joy are streaming down my face!!! What a wonderful day!!!! Regardless of the DB situation, it was GREAT to hear the Bills are willing to go with JP... It's time to move in that direction, regardless of the consequences on the Field in 2005... It's just time to move on... And it looks like the Bills Brass gets that now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Could be released on March 1st if he doesnt take a pay cut. I like TD playing hardball.

Don't know if these have been covered, I've been away. 207141[/snapback] This is GREAT news, but, does TD have any leverage? Cutting Drew would be disasterous to our cap situation, no?

I never said that Mort said that. Mort DID say that the Bills were ready to go with Losman. That doesnt mean that he is now the starter only that he is "ready" in there minds to compete for the job.

No. 207158[/snapback] Hey, if you were to ask ME, I would say that JP should start. Im just saying that the BILLS and Mort did not say that.
