Buffalo Bills left tackle Jason Peters hopes to capitalize on his Pro Bowl season by getting a pay raise from the team.

Peters' absence from voluntary spring practices this week is at least partly attributable to the fact he would like a new contract, team and league sources told The Buffalo News.

i would say he should prove it for one more season, but that would likely just make him more expensive in one year.

And hes worth every penny and we ought to step up, just that simple.

Here we are, yet again, on the edge of making several big decisions that could have big impacts on getting out of our perpetual medicority.

Winfield
Pat Williams
Nate Clements

Now we have Jason Peters and Lee Evans.

Pay them, or sell the damn team because you cant compete or arent willing to even try.

(kgb, from the movie "rounders") "pay him, pay that man his money..."

Re: Peters pressing Bills for a raise

he's got the team by the balls. They need him desperately, they have the cap space, and it's too late to find an alternative.

But, he deserves the raise anyway.

Pay the man.

My only hesitation would be to see how he responds from his injury, but again, we don't really have a choice at this point.

Teams dont give away LTs. Peters will get a new contract. I dont remember the last time a top LT was allowed to leave.

Re: Peters pressing Bills for a raise

If theres one guy on the team who deserves a pay raise, its certainly peters. We certainly have the cap room to do it as well- Lets just hope it doesnt drastically effect the Lee Evans situation

Re: Peters pressing Bills for a raise

He should get paid, he is one of the best LT in the league.

Re: Peters pressing Bills for a raise

Yeah he is under contract but he is one of the better LOT and deserves to be paid like it. Also we have nobody else who can play that position well.

They are, if your good enough.

I was recalling more the recent huge rookie contracts given, and the fact that if you don't like your salary you can just not go to work while they negotiate.
