In space no one can hear Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 LETS JUST SAY: someone scoops up hargrove, and someone scoops up anderson. we could definitely trade those 2 3rds into an early 2nd right? just a long reach, wishful thinking, but i like the idea. Dr.Dank....I agree with much of what you say.....but yes, here you are doing a bit of wishful thinking. It's a very contagious condition that spreads when a "draft" approaches.

obie_wan Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 BAsed on the tender of only a 3rd round comp, it doesn't look like the Bills were all taht impressed with Hargrove. With the way they overpay mi-round free agents, another $500,000 would have upped the compensation toa 1st and 3rd- which would have indicated a real commitment. This leaves the door open to draft another DE to bump Hargrove if one drops in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Hargrove joined the Bills 7 games into the season. Thus he missed all of the OTA's, mini-camps, training camp, and pre-season with the Bills, not to mention 6 weeks of practicing with the team. Kind of hard to show anything to the Bills, much less other teams, making him worth tendering at the 1st round tender level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
