Re: Would you want Farve in Buffalo??

if he wants to come in and teach TE and JP the game I'd be all for it!!!! if he wants to start for a year or so, then I'd have to think about it for a while.... we're trying to move forward for the longrun, not just a year then take a few steps back.

Why would anyone have to think about Brett Farve being our quarterback for a year?

Even though there is zero chance, it's a no-brainer... of course you sign him and name him the immediate starter.

Then you resign Lee Evans and draft Devin Thomas, Martellus Bennett and Jerome Simpson.

Brett has two more years in him that are better than anything JP or Trent have even come close to showing.

I'm somewhat of a believer in "the future is now" approach, but Favre would represent "the future is five years ago."

Farve would only want to be on a team that has a shot to win it all.

With the rule changes the emphasis will be on the run this year so I'm not sure where he would help.

I wish he would just stay retired already. His back and forth is getting rediculous!

Re: Would you want Farve in Buffalo??

Im sure Favre really wants to come out of retirement to play for the Buffalo Bills. Thats probably his plan.

It's not his Agent.

Favre's agent shoots down report of comeback

Brett Favre's agent has shot down a published report that the Green Bay Packers quarterback, who announced his retirement last month, could be weighing a comeback with another team.
The Los Angeles Times, citing unnamed NFL sources, reported that Favre's agent, James "Bus" Cook, had quietly inquired with teams about their interest in trading for the 38-year-old veteran.
But Cook, asked about the report, told ESPN, "That is absolutely false. Absolutely false, and you can quote me on that."
Cook was quoted in The Times story as saying that any word of Favre's interest in continuing his career was "news to me."
"I don't think that has anything to do with anything. He's retired, period, point blank," Cook told The Times.
Favre announced his retirement on March 7, saying he was mentally and physically drained. But he has yet to file his paperwork with the NFL, and his rights still belong to the Packers, who could trade him to another team.
The Times reported that according to league sources, Favre's decision to retire was partially influenced by his frustration that the Packers didn't make a more aggressive attempt to sign wide receiver Randy Moss in 2007 or 2008.
But Cook denied any link between Moss and Favre's decision to retire, according to The Times.
"As far as Randy's deal with New England, there were never any negotiations with Green Bay," he said, according to the report. "As far as I know, Brett retired because he was tired and burned out."

That would create another qb controversy because even at his age, Farve is 10X better than any qb we have.

Sure, why not? If nothing else it would get us some much needed national attention, but realistically it's not happening.
