If he was serious he'd be in a camp now. Likely teams are waiting for cuts (not all due to performance but cost) before breaking glass.

He converts back to Tight End and wins the starting job from Kincaid. He catches the game winning touchdown to win Super Bowl LVII. Ralph rises from the grave to hand JP a huge bag of cash. Russ Brandon is publicly flogged. All is forgiven. You forgot Ernie Parker spirit coming to Jason Peters and telling him that before Superbowl to hold out for a lifetime contract or not play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 On 8/19/2023 at 9:22 AM, DJB said: Take with a grain of salt perhaps but it’s something to talk about Peters should be praising the Bills for his career & what ever coaches that were on the Bills staff while he was here because if he would have stayed at the TE position which was what he was drafted as he may have never had the career he has . Yes he had to put in the work to be the player he has been but he may have never known the player he is today if it weren't for the coach that suggested that change of position . Does any one know what coach that was or may have been that made the suggestion to him ? It would be a bad thing for him to come back & end his career where he started it although i didn't like the way he left . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigK14094 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 On 8/24/2023 at 1:59 PM, CouldBe said: In Peters case the change in job status warranted a change in contract, both times. If any situation caused the Ralph is cheap talk, this was the time. At the time there was a lot of "do you think you know more than the Bills do" on the old message board. I admit I did think I knew more than the Bills did. I knew more than the Bills did for 17 long years. If you lowball a player of Peters talent, then you will get a team of low talent. That is disrespect for the Bills mafia. Peters was signed for over $3million a year, not a low ball vet min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) It was Jim McNally. The Bills moving on from him after the 2007 season was another reason Peters was done with them. Edited August 27, 2023 by Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
