Can't be creating holes in our team with the amount of ones we already got.

He's an above average safety and should be paid as such.

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
I thing Whitner is under-appreciated. I think the fans that refuse to acknowledge his ability and value will be very disappointed when he doesn't get backup money. This guy is good and getting better, and I am glad that the front office isn't a bunch of over-reacting fans that will judge his worth on interceptions alone.

He finally got his first pick of the season. Better lock him up before someone else gets him.

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
he's an average player, like fitz, who is servicable for the time being, but in a year or two will need to be replaced entirely. He isn't the biggest weakness of the defense, but he doesn't relaly make it all that much better. I hardly notice when George Wilson goes in for his place. and when i do notice, Wilson usually has done something worth noting.
This isn't hate towards Whitner; it's the facts.Comment

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
Although not Pro Bowl caliber, I have no problem with locking him up long term at a reasonable price for a safetyComment

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
I feel he's kept a lot of the game-breaking runs to the ~first down runs. He's the best tacklers we've got back there right now IMO.

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
The guy is under appreciated. People knock him because our front office picked him at 8, and he voices his opinions on twitter. I think Donte is proud to be a Buffalo Bill. I think he represents our team very well on and off the field. He is our defensive workhorse, and well liked by fellow players and coaches. He wears his emotions on his sleeves and wants to win for this city badly. I also believe this guy is caught up playing more than his safety position. With our LB's being very mediocre, Whitner has to step up and make the 6-8yd tackles that the LB's missed. I think once we get good DE's and 2nd level help, Whitner will shine brighter.
Happy with the possible contract extension.Comment

Re: AP reports Whitner and Bills working on new deal
That's it exactly, IMO. Build not destroy. There's no guarantee that any rookie will be any better and Whitner isn't horrible, he's a solid backup who is getting better just too slowly.Originally posted by Oaf
Sign him long term and add a rookie at some point to push him.
