Have heard little recently (probably not a good sign). Fromm struggled (putting it nicely). Murphy can hit the road. He's been a mediocre signing. Keep a younger DE with more juice in his legs. Fromm can go too. If he doesn't have the arm, get him out of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no cap expert, so I won't pretend to understand the ramifications on either side.

1ManRaid Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 6 hours ago, Shaw66 said: I think the Mario Williams signing was a historic turning point for the franchise. There was a lot of misery yet to come, but signing Williams signified that the Bills were willing to make the big move to change their fortunes, and it indicated that big-time talent would come to Buffalo. I couldn't leave my computer during that time, for fear I would miss something. I thought it was supposed to be drafting CJ Spiller. I remember Ralph Wilson talking about how that represented their new commitment to getting playmakers and being more competitive or something like that. 4 minutes ago, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: Grammar tip.
