This is from Bills Daily....
McGahee Wants To Stay? Reports say that Willis McGahee has stated he wants to stay with the Bills and wants a contract extension in the offseason. His contract expires at the end of the 2007 season but it has always been assumed that his agent Drew Rosenhaus would want a new deal before then. Rosenhaus called a new deal for McGahee a high priority this offseason. His original contract was based a lot on recovering from his serious knee injury in college, which makes his base salary next year lower then most first round draft picks signed in 2003.
Fletcher Sounds Ready To Leave: London Fletcher told the media yesterday he is non commital on his future but the more he talked the more he sounded like someone ready for a fresh start elsewhere. He said he isn't leaning one way or another but made it clear this could be his last game as a Bill on Sunday. He said the Bills have to show they are serious about keeping him but it has been hard on him, not making the playoffs in his five years with the team. He also had hoped to get an extension last offseason when he hired Drew Rosenhaus to represent him. The Bills have made overtures to him about a new deal but have not made a serious offer yet.
-I myself personally cannot justify giving Willis an extention after this season....he's too much of a headache and very suseptible to injury
-This is dissapointing to hear about Fletcher, but can you blame the guy? He would get so much more attention in a national media haven like NYC or DC, and probally have a better shot at making the playoffs, as well as a pro bowl.
Discuss...seeing as how were only a few days away from true offseason mode here on the board.
