What is your biggest Bills FA mistake

Technically, they traded for him...it was before the days of true fee-agency in the NFL.  He was only a Bill for about half a season, on maybe, the most gawd-awful teams they ever fielded.  I had season tickets then...you know, Vinny actually moved the ball...but they just couldn't score.  Trivia: he did throw Andre Reed his first TD pass!

Quinn Early made one of my favorite catches ever (early 1996) - a 4th quarter slant and go on 3rd and 18 that he took 63 yards to the the house after Parcells and Belichick bizarrely took a holding penalty instead of letting it go to 4th and 8. They were so confident that Kelly couldn't make a play that they figured they'd get better field position by taking the penalty. It was the go ahead TD, and the Bills ended the game in the last minute when Bruce Smith sacked Bledsoe with the Pats inside the Bills 10 yard line. 

 

For that reason alone, he is by definition not the worst signing!

I liked Quinn Early.

I have no problem with the dockery and Langston walker signings. The Bills were terrible on the oline and Cheaped out for years in investing in the line. I was and still am glad they went out and spent money on guys to shore up that line. Yeah, the guys they got weren’t great, but at least they tried.

 

Dockery, in my view, was just meh, not terrible  (like a mike pucello). Walker actually had some good moments, but was beset by some injuries, as I recall. Plus, walker had that highly entertaining segment on bb.com.

You got it backwards on Maro... he had three elite level seasons, and then fell off the map in his 4th season...missed only one game in Buffalo.  Do some of you even watch the games?  39 sacks in 3 years is hardly "not good".

TO. A move made to sell tickets not win games. It was just such a huge sign of what the franchise had become. 

He had a pretty good year in Buffalo

I'm glad people aren't mentioning Mario Williams, because he was very good for a few years with us. Just ended poorly.
