Re: John McCargo
I agree with the Doc. I don't blame Tatonka for wondering why but now it's a numbers game.
Go look at the depth chart and see how shorthanded we are across the board. It's frightening how many holes we have at starter & backup at various positions.
Get busy, Brandon. This roster is painfully short.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Re: John McCargo
i guess what concerns me is that we have not been linked with ANY defensive tackles so far in free agency. i would love to get a guy like robbins and see them hang on to mccargo to see if anyone will bite on a trade.
or maybe we will get a miracle and like you said, kollars replacement can get him to play.
he is really one of teh guys that shocked me last year.. after 2007 i had really high expectations because he played very well in spot duty.
if we go into the draft, assuming that bj raji is not available, i would love to see a trade down to the low first and grab a guy like ziggy hood, who looks like a perfect fit for what we need.. there is a slight chance he may be there for our second pick, but unlikely now that he has done so well at the combine."All hockey players are bilingual.

Re: John McCargo
I know of nothing personally and have nothing informative, but I would agree with what Lecter said.
He's a #4 DT on the roster who's relatively cheap in regard to the cap. No foul in keeping him around for now. I'd imagine if they eventually sign a DT in FA or draft one semi-early, then he could be gone.
SUcks for McCargo because if he's not in the future plans he'd rather be cut now; but that's the way the NFL works. It's a business.
I'd still rather see the Bills draft BJ Nagi if he's on the board over some of these tweener DE/LB that are supposedly Top 15 prospects.

we release Dockery to save a few bucks but create a HUGE hole
we keep McCargo who isn't even a starter and even though we tried to pawn his ass off on Indy last year, and we could upgrade with a few DT's on the market..
the Bills franchise is a puzzling complex

Originally posted by DraftBoyNot a bad option but he may go to high for us. His stock is moving up, he may be a Day 1 selection and Im not sure his talent warrants it.
i heard an interview with him on XM radio.. he definately came across as a polite and respectful guy who seemed to "get it". Plus he is the type of player that can penatrate and is extremely strong. i just like the guy more every time i hear something about him.Last edited by Tatonka; 03-02-2009, 02:44 PM."All hockey players are bilingual.

Re: John McCargo
I know that Mccargo and bill kollar didn't get along - at least according to the Buffalo news. With a new D- line coach this year i wouldn't be surprised if he gets another chance, especially as pointed out above his cap number is relativly low. I still think he can develop into a nice rotation DT based on what i saw out of him two years ago, but its tough to tell
