You know what, Peters had a reason to be pissed and demand more money.
He was the best olinemen on the team and he was getting paid considerably less than Dockery and Walker. This team is a JOKE in how much money they threw at Dockery. I wonder if this whole situation would have played out differently had the Bills not been so inept at finding Olinemen in the draft and had to overpay for FA's. Now the decisions come full circle. We'll throw money at Walker and Dockery and cut them both after finding out worthless they are, but the one guy who has proven to play when not disgruntled and has made 2 pro bowls is traded away and treated like a villain.
Now I know Peters was being a baby about everything and wanted a lot more money than maybe he was worth...but aren't we paying a BOATLOAD more money than theyre worth to players like Schobel and Kelsay currently? This FO just makes no sense when it comes to player evaluation and locking up the wrong players. I'm surprised that we didn't lock up Trent when he had that huge game in KC last season. Name one move that this FO has made that has really made a huge positive impact. (Besides TO, and for his case, it's only been P.R. driven impacts thus far)
Seriously, does this team seem more interested in smoke and mirrors to appease fans or are they seriously interested in bringing in talent and going to the Super Bowl? Based off of the past however many years (Bringing Marv in as GM, bringing Price back as a #2 WR, overpaying for Olinemen, firing Schonert, etc, etc...) I'd say the former.
