Re: Nix wont spend big money in FA, but...
I always view FA as an opportunity to find good role players or underrated contributers, like Drayton Florence.
Most of the big $$ FA are overpaid, past their prime or very overrated, due to demand. With an uncapped year coming up, I just can't see the Bills getting anyone off the A list. Will Snyder,Jones & other big spenders be able to show any self restraint ?
But I do like your thinking. I guess we have to wait and see if it's a 3-4 or 4-3 we are running.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Nix isn't spending in fa because Ralph won't let him. Let's put the blame in the proper place.

That's why he made sure he let that known as soon as he was hired!"Expect rejection, but expect more to overcome it."

Originally posted by X-EraIf he did, Karlos Dansby would top my list:
During the spot I just completed on Sporting News Radio's The Monty Show, Monty and I talked about the realities of the labor negotiations and the uncapped year.
Id move to the 3-4
Start Mitchell and Poz inside, move Maybin to rush LB, and put Dansby on the other side.
Thoughts?

He won't be a Cowboy. The CBA has huge restrictions on teams that made the final 8, so the Cowboys will be easily outbid.
The Skins are a possibility though

Originally posted by better daysIn an uncapped year, Dansby is going to break the bank. The Skins & Cowboys will be bidding against each other for him.
there are some rules in place that will keep this form getting out of hand.
The 2010 year has caps in place for playoff teams. I had a good post on this a while back I will have to dig it up.

The four teams that make the league championship games can't sign an unrestricted free agent unless and until they lose one of equal or more value;
The four teams that lost in the divisional round can sign one high-priced unrestricted free agent (price undetermined yet) without having to lose one of their own. Once that maximum exception is burned, they are restricted like the top four teams in terms of big-ticket free agents. And they can also sign as many mid-level free agents as they want (price undetermined).

Originally posted by kernowboyDeMeco Ryams or DQwell Jackson would also be interesting pickups but I think we'd be better off cutting our loses with Mitchell and signing Shawne Merriman who Nix was involved with in San Diego.
If we could get one of these guys, then Id be more comfortable passing on McClain and building up our line.
