    Where are we cap wise?

    Not saying the old geezer wont spend anything more. But dont we have like a ****load of cap room left, and a bunch of cash to cap money??

    Stroud was signed (nice)
    Mitchell was signed (nice)

    Johnson was signed (nice) but isnt his contract for around the same we saved in cutting Tripplett?

    I havent seen or looked in a few weeks, but we must have near the top of the league in cap space right now.

    I really don't know. I amsure Clump can (and will) tell us.

    The thing is, there is not much out there to spend money on. James would be nice. One of the WRs would be nice, not none of them are world beaters. The TEs are not the long term answer and Crumpler was picked up before he came here.

    If there is money, use it to extend Lee and Crowell.

      True.
      By rule, they HAVE to spend a certain amount, no?

          Hell, they could even try to get Peters up real long term or McCargo.

            Or pull a Paul Brown 90's Bengal style and spend the BARE minimum?

            Without being sarcastic, would that surprise you?

              Plenty of both cap space and cash to cap

                McCargo, already? Seems a bit early for that.

                I would like to get Peters and Evans locked up this year if we are done spending. There really isn't anyone left out there worth paying big money anyway.

                  Not defending or condemning Ralph here. I'm just sitting here thinking about the FA's and although I think it would be nice to sign a Johnson or Hackett, I don't see either as being worth a whole heck of a lot more than a rookie if we're only looking for a No.2 this season.

                  I understand that rookies have to adjust, etc, but a lot of rookies also play very well when they are not put at the number one spot right away. This would be our case. Don't get me wrong - signing a guy makes the draft wide open for us. We still have needs, but none would necessarily HAVE to be picked in a certain round. BPA amongst the needs. We're still close to that situation. A lot of teams have a ton of money this year and nobody except the Raiders is doing anything too foolish.

                  I still say we draft BPA in round one (most likely a CB unless somebody extraordinary falls to us or to someone who wants to trade up). CB, WR, TE and DT would all be good picks in the first three rounds and the order doesn't necessarily/completely matter. I would say that DT is now the least pressing, but if Stroud gets hurt we're in trouble. Round one - CB or WR. Round two - CB, WR or TE. Round 3 - CB, WR, TE, or DT. Round 4 - TE or DT.

                        That really annoys me. Especially if we don't do anything to extend Lee Evans, Angelo Crowell or Jason Peters....

                          It's called PATIENCE! I just don't get why everyone is sooooooo frickin impatient

                          The 2008 League Year only started 2 weeks ago................there is PLENTY of time to work out extensions for both Evans and Crowell (i.e. after start of regular season so the Bills can use the Philly loophole). Peters can wait until next offseason

                            Patience?

                            On this board?
