The Dean Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Peters will never get that much in real money. By all accounts Haynesworth may have signed a contract that says something to that effect but will never realize the full term and neither will Jason. Both are 27 years old, so both have a decent shot at seeing all of the money...or more. Peters surely will see that entire contract, or sign an even bigger one in a few years, if he turns out to be as good as many expect. If he regresses, then you are correct, he won't see it all.

DazedandConfused Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I still think that the Bills have likely made a decision to show him the money. The Bills seem to be all about plan Bs (though) they often describe their having a succession plan as making sure all players have good competition. On the OL the Bills already have a big hole to fill since they let Dockery walk. Hamgatner was a good acquisition as he can play guard or center, but since the Fowler era is done, there is the hole at C left to fill as well. Since the Bills do not have a real heir apparent at LT (Chambers gives them depth which allows them to move Walker from RT tp LT if they have to do it, but no one seriously sees him as a long-term answer as a starter. This lack of even taking a whiff at finding an alternative if Peters is disruptive and must go leads me to believe that they have already made a decision to make Peters happy. They likely are waiting until after the draft to settle this question as the uncertainty raises questions for our opponents trying to figure us out.
