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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Now if there's a decent interest in the man, why couldn't we trade him for anything? A 6th rounder, 7th rounder? Conditional? If the Ravens can sign Housh and then a day later trade Mark Clayton for a 7th, why can't Buddy Nix get something! Worst case scenario? Trent is our 3rd string QB, Levi is still on the streets. I don't understand why not get something for him cause there IS INTEREST.
Just because people put a waiver claim in, doesn't mean they had interest when he was available for trade. The difference between giving something up and claiming him for free are two different things.
I'm just speculating here, since I don't know much about how trades and NFL contracts work, but if we traded him would the receiving team have to take the current contract he had with the Bills? If so, maybe it was too much for any team to take. Now they can just sign him for the minimum.

If they pick him up on waivers they still have to pay him the same contract that he had with us.
I'd assume if 5 teams legitimately have interest in him, the team at the bottom or 2nd to bottom of the waiver process would be willing to give up a 7th round pick to make sure they procure the players services.
Obviously we weren't trading him to the Jets for anything.
Big difference from being willing to trade for a player and willing to claim one waived.
In the end, there are only three liberal archetypes: The fools, the beneficiaries and the crooks.

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws,
to be led by permanent ideals -
that is what keeps a man patient
when the world ignores him,
and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him. -- Honore De Balzac
