All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Meanwhile, Edwards was introduced as a newly-minted Bill during a press conference. He had visited the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos, but didn't get offers because he didn't pass their physicals.
Two things to note:
1 - Competitive Medical Advantage. Dr. C is well known for his work in the field and if he's given the green light I'm not as leery.
2 - I expect at some point in his contract that Edwards will need the surgery the Ravens wanted him to get.
I believe rotoworld also mentioned that his contract was a MAXIMUM of 18 million. I wouldn't be surprised if there are some playing time incentives in there.

I agree with the bad trend, but I think we also have to trust the Dr that looked at him for the Bills. He seems to have some knowledge with that kind of stuff.

Sure, there's some risk...but you either trust the doctor who saved Kevin Everett's quality of life or you don't.

Typical of some Bills fans. The Bills sign a guy that should help. Instead of just being pleased with signing, they seek out an issue with the signing.

Wasn't seeking out an issue, just presenting the one that would undoubtedbly be mentioned and tried to nip in the bud. Personally I don't think it's a problem but it is something to be aware of. As you can see, I didn't close my comments in the original post with "same old bills", "typical bills move" or something like that.

Seeking out an issue?
Hmmm.... McCargo failed a physical with Indy. How much time has his fat ass spent on the bench due to injury. How has he played when he has been on the field?
Did you happen to notice how many injuries this team has had over the last two or three years? And now we're taking a chance on a guy like this.
Look, I like the two new signings and I think it's exactly what the Bills need to be doing, but it's absurd to just try to dismiss this as people finding reasons to complain. Injuries have been a huge problem for this team and there is a very real risk here.

We don't really know if McCargo was on the bench due to injury or if Dick just did not want to play him. Lets hope the new staff puts together a better plan to help keep these guys healthy.
