    **(Rumor)** Peters has Highest paid LT contract on the table



    Our Bills Team Correspondent Dean Kindig (aka Astrobot) updates on the Jason Peters situation. He previously was taking the tack that Peters was likely to be traded, but now comes the news that the Bills Left Tackle was offered a contract which would make him the highest paid in the league at that position - roughly on par with Carolina's Jordan Gross. Dean now thinks a deal will get done, and has lowered the priority on OT for Buffalo. As a result, our Consensus Mock Draft has the Bills steering away from Michael Oher and again looking in the direction of USC LB Brian Cushing.

    I guess will find out today if this has any truth. Not getting my hopes up...

    Astrobot has all the best scoops. I think that is Ralph's net name.

      It's only "roughly on par with. . . Jordan Gross?" No way the great Peters settles for that.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        I remember Astrobot from 2billsdrive, btu I can't remember how reliable he was.

        I gave up on 2 billsdrive as a main forum for Bills talk a few years back. Stil post there but not much

            I guess that is contradictive of what I gave as a title.

            Wouldn't Jrodan Gross's contract be around the 9.75 mil per year we've been hearing ???

              It would be nice to have this put to bed and be able to focus our draft back to DE OLB @ #11

              Then get the best G or C in the 2nd rd

              Then best TE in round #3

                  The Bills are damned if they do, and damned if they don't. If they pay Peters, it will be viewed as over-spending, if they don't, they'll be viewed as cheap.

                    I don't really care anymore. It's obvious that the fat, piece of **** cares about nothing but money. So I honestly don't care whether he takes the offer or not. Either way, I want this over with....if he rejects it, trade him immediately! This team can NOT be held hostage by this douchebag!

                      Agreed, but I hope it's Peters who caves

                        Oy, the drama continues. If Peters does sign and gets the $$$ he wants, he'd better play b*lls to the wall for the whole season!

                          This is about ego and sometimes players will play up to, not down to, their contract.

                          I think Peters, for all the *****ing around here, will outperform a deal similar to Gross.

                          If the Bills actually get him signed I will be stoked and actually believe that this team is serious about finally winning.

                            If true I think it is a mistake for the bills.

                              I could be wrong but I don't think this is about money as much as it is being recognized as maybe the best player at his position.

                              I actually believe that if gets this deal he will outperform it and play as the best player in the league.

                              The guy is not lazy. After all of the time he missed he came into OBD in excellent shape which Jauron confirmed. He said he is one of the better conditioned athletes.
