Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

[psubills62]

Bills were mentioned a couple times, thought it was semi-interesting. Nothing that hasn't been discussed, though. Personally, I'd like the Bills to make a run at Chad Pennington.

Michael Vick: The Eagles are doing their best sell-job, trying to convince the rest of the league that Vick will stay put if they don't receive a high draft pick as compensation. So far the only person taking the bait is NFL Network's Michael Lombardi. Unless the Eagles have a plan in place to deal either McNabb or Kolb, it makes no sense to fork out over $5 million for Vick in 2010. The smart money still has him landing elsewhere. The Rams will have a hard time passing up Sam Bradford, which would leave the Bills as the team in most need of Vick's services. Having gone four years without starting a game, he'd be nothing more than a high-upside QB2 as a starter.

Prediction: Bills

Marshawn Lynch: With Fred Jackson having finally established himself as the superior back, a Lynch trade makes sense if the Bills can extract a couple of decent draft picks. They have enough holes on the roster that the extra draft picks will come in handy. If the offers don't roll in, however, Lynch will return as the Robin to F-Jax's Batman in Chan Gailey's two-back system. For the sake of both backs' fantasy value, a trade is the ideal scenario.

Kevin Walter: A better NFL than fantasy player, Walter is a role player stretched as a No. 2 receiver. If he couldn't produce WR3 numbers in the Texans' high-powered offense, he's going to have a hard time getting back on the fantasy radar again in 2010. Let someone else use their late-round pick on him this summer.

Prediction: Bills

Re: Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

Could see the Vick Bills marriage happen - even if I don't like it

Do not see Lynch leaving unless there is so much value being offered they can't turn down the deal. Need two backs in this league.

Kevin Walter would be a phenomenal addition but unlikely as the Bills have necessities before considering spending money on luxuries. They have gapping holes on both lines needing to be filled. Not to mention they have younger WRs (James Hardy and Steve Johnson) that will be expected to step up this season. Most WRs blossom their 3rd year in the pros.

Ehhh...I think people have tended to pigeonhole Chan Gailey. Just because he did some good things with dual-threat QB's (as an OC, mostly), doesn't mean he wants one as a head coach. Honestly, I'd be surprised if they traded for Vick at all.

Yeah, I don't see Lynch leaving unless a 3rd is offered. Hopefully some team like the Chargers, Redskins, Browns, etc. miss out on a RB in FA and are interested.

I'd love to get Kevin Walter, but I think he's too much of a name for us to get. Johnson and Hardy deserve their chance to succeed, but WR is still a big hole itself and we could really use someone proven. Especially a possession WR like Walter.

Re: Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

I forgive Vick for what he has done, but he is far from being my favorite candidate for the starting QB position.. I'd rather we just draft our own guy, I like Colt McCoy or Dan LeFevour in the 3rd round.

Re: Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

i would take vick, he is a good stopgap for a year or two, as far as walter, great signing

I think McCoy is gone in round 2. I could see the Bills going OT at #9 then McCoy in round 2...too bad he won't be bringing his #12 jersey though...not happening.

How do we know he's a good stop gap player ? He hasn't started a game in four years! I'd rather pass him by then give him a seat on the bus !

Re: Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

I don't think acquiring Vick would be a very good move for Buffalo. Maybe as a free agent signing, with an incentive laden deal, and without a multi-year deal with a big signing bonus where the risk is very low. No way do I want Buffalo to trade for him.

Re: Rotoworld's Free Agency Predictions

Please, no Vick and no Pennington. How about a guy with some arm strength AND accuracy.

I'd take Chris Redmond as a transition QB, while we look next year for a better option. Let him and Brohm fight it out while we concentrate this year on improving LT and the front 7 on D.

WR is a need both Hardy and Johnson haven't shown ****, but for the fact that they can get hurt
