Biggest FA regret coming from Buffalo


Recommended Posts

I like the other thread about the worst FA signing in Bills history.  So, I'd like to turn that around and ask you all; who completely balled out here in Buffalo, to earn a rich contract somewhere else, but flopped. 

 

The first one that comes to my mind is Jarius Byrd.  And I was happy to see him go.

I really hated letting Peerless go too. I was hoping that he would retire a Bill and keep producing the way he did.  He and Eric Moulds were great together.

The offense was unstoppable that year. Bledsoe should’ve been mvp of the league

Jairus. Jairus.

 

I swear the same people who always spell his name incorrectly are the same ones who say "Martavius" Bryant and Nathan "Peterson."

Cornelius Bennett.

 

Best seasons were as a Bill. Had his only 100+ tackle season here. With ATL and IND post 1995, never broke 75 tackles, never made another Pro Bowl.

 

Some fans forget he was a 2x defensive player of the year here and coming out of Alabama, some thought he was better than Lawrence Taylor. The Bills made a ballsy trade to acquire him in 1987.

Nice move by Donahoe by using the franchise tag on Peerless and then trading him to Atlanta for a first round draft pick.  That was about the only  good thing he did.
