Paul Costa Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Does he have any trade value? And if the answer is yes do we still get the cap relief? I think he keeps bonus money. I think Bills need to move on. I predicted he would try to come back when he realized that he was leaving a lot of money ? out there!!? what will he do next? Not worth the risk!!

It’s our faults for having the crazy guy in the first place. But much like Boldin, the Bills hold all the cards. He’s an old G who really doesn’t have power right now. Get back on your meds Richie before it costs you millions! Yeah, but I dont want an unhappy Richie around the team, showing up just to get paid. I also dont want to cut him and let him off the hook either. At this point, I hope he just stays retired. 3 minutes ago, Paul Costa said: Does he have any trade value?

Wonder if Giants would be interested in us throwing him in with the package to get to #2? Edited April 14, 2018 by DrDawkinstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not give him the benefit of the doubt Because I know what really happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man is in pain. Look for the best ray No, the blue print has been worked and he is not part of the trade. Announcement next week I hope you believe in the best about people. But what about Colin Kaepernick, because you made posts about him in another thread. Do you believe in the best with him? A guy who wasn’t voted dirtiest player in the nfl, accused of sexual harassment, kicked out of 2 colleges and let go by multiple nfl teams because he was a problem? 11 minutes ago, DrDawkinstein said: Yeah, but I dont want an unhappy Richie around the team, showing up just to get paid.

I don’t think teams value 35 year old crazy Gs. Though him and crazy Odell would be a funny reality show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could cut him, but suspend him without pay and not allow him to play elsewhere would take more in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 He's pretty clearly off whatever medication he was on. This is old Richie, which is a really bad thing for those around him. I hope he can sort his **** out. I've lived that life before and I wouldn't wish it on anyone, not even with the regard (or lack thereof) that I hold Richie in.

T master Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 8 hours ago, davefan66 said: Couple this with firing his agent, and it seems to me that Richie is having buyers remorse regarding the pay cut he just took. Bills showed resolve with Bolden last year and let him rot on the reserve/retired list. Wonder if Richie sees that and will “unretire” in hopes of getting cut. Thats what they are saying because if he does stay on the retired list he has to return the $1.5 million signing bonus & i know i wouldn't want to do it ! Articles say that he may be hoping that they cut him so he can keep the $$ & still make the pay from the contract renegotiation he just did & if that is what he's doing then he is a bigger piece of **** than we or the Bills realize & needs to be gone ...

BuffaloMatt Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 He is fine. He is just pissed that he restructured. THREE consecutive Pro Bowls and he knows now the guard market is thin. He really should be pissed at his personal team for brokering such a Bills friendly deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Whatever the dumb as* I'm not a told-you-so kind of guy. But as I said on Tuesday... Posted Tuesday at 08:45 AM First he says he signs his new contract and says how excited he is to play another year for the Bills. Then he fires his agent. Then he tweets that he's done. Then he deletes that tweet. Then he tells Vic he really is done. Then he tells another reporter that he's in talks with the Bills about his retirement. When the wheel stops spinning, let me know. I'm not convinced Richie's retirement is the final word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
