All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Who's heard about this? He gets what he deserves. If you don't like the Bills,leave or get yourself traded. Would you trade in your McGahee jersey for a $20 tab of drinks? I bet you would!!!!
His heart isn't in it, when he goes, it won't hurt much, he's no better than most of the RB's in the NFL. No where near a Cookie, Juice or Thurmanator!
If the rest of the league see this then he actually has almost no trade value
Hopefully that will work to our advantage, in that the only way he will get a decent contract at the end of the 2007 season is to run hard. Hopefully Rosenhaus will tell him this, and if Marv is clever enough he will issue a no tag agreement, meaning Willis won't hold out, will have a good season and propel us forward.
At the end of 2007, I have no interest in retaining him because of his character but there is a stellar RB class in 2008 with Slaton, McFadden, Ray Rice, Albert Young, Jordan Stewart, the boy from Boise St, Felix Jones, Jamaal Charles, Kyle Bell and Lydell Hamilton all coming out. Hell we might be able to draft the RB of the future in R2 and they'd all be an upgrade especially if we have already addressed the OL, the FB, and the continued progression of JP
Well it at least makes me glad I got an authentic for $40... hard to feel bad about that. Plus I can hopefully get the name changed if and when he leaves... I don't hate him quite as much as you all seem to though. I just wish he'd play up to his damn ability every game instead of every 5th game or so.
I think hate is the wrong word - I think fed up, frustrated and ready to go our losses would be more apt.
The guy has got all the physical attributes to actually be one of the top3 RBs in the league but fails to deliver.
He is a 'me-first' guy always willing to blame others before looking at his own performance.
He clearly does not like Buffalo and gives the impression he wants to be on the first bus out of here as soon as he cans.
The possible off field character issues are merely adding fuel to the fire.
I would personally prefer to see a less talented athlete who is a team first guy willing to bring his game to every game, and be more reflective as to how good he actually is, looking to improve first rather than blame others, not looking to demand more money that his declining performances don't warrant, and looking to bring his enthusiasm to the team
For me he was out of here when he failed to show for the voluntary practices at the start of 2006. With a new coaching staff and regime in place, it exactly showed where he felt his priorities were. Compared this attitude with that of Mr Losman
If we still have him next year, I bet he does awesome because it is his contract year. He's dumb, but not ******ed. He knows what it takes to get payed, so I wouldn't be surprised if he has a real good year in 2007.

I totally agree. Thats why I think we should retain him. As it is he will have little trade value prior to the draft and if we deal with other offensive issues like better lineblocking for the pass and the run, a better No2 WR, then I think we could start a rookie in 2008 at RB and still have a 1000yds runner
"Diarrhea mouth" Willis is an average back at best...at least that is what he has shown during his time in Buffalo. If it were me, I'd try to trade him and get an extra pick in the draft this year. There are plenty of RB's in the draft that could gain 900 yds and 6 tds and not cause the headaches.

I was about to say the same thing.
I have an authentic McGahee jersey but I only paid $25 for it on ebay.
