Whitner half-way out the door?

[DraftBoy]

Bills have already added two safeties tonight via UDFA in Cook and Glover along with drafting Searcy and another potential S in Williams. Lots of people for only a few spots.

Thoughts?

If we're replacing Whitner by UDFAs, then we're in big trouble. These pick ups may play a role down the line, as project players, but i doubt the Bills have any confidence these 2 signings will have any kind of impact next season.

I think it's more about his poor attitude than anything, Gailey doesn't want him around.

I doubt we're targeting these UDFAs to replace Whitner. These seem more like depth guys than anything.

Does this mean the charity boxing match with Pat Moran is off?

I'll help push him the rest of the way.

I'm not as down on him as some here, in fact I think he's a servicable safety in the NFL, but he's not worth the money that somebody will pay him and I really hope that somebody isn't the Bills.

Re: Whitner half-way out the door?

Probably right. Thing is, it's sensible stacking up on depth at the position, on the assumption that Whitner will go where the bigger $ are.
While I think Whitner is an above average player at his position, he simply doesn't make the big plays, to justify the additional money he wants from the Bills.
From the Bills pov, they've made him a fair offer, and if he doesn't like it, then he can walk. We aren't that badly off at the safety position, that re-signing Whitner is remotely critical.

I don't think it's just Whitner, I think the team recognizes how weak our secondary really is.

Whitner was shown the door during his post-season interview with Gailey.

He was replaced by Searcy anyway, without the twitter drama....
UDFA'S are brought in for depth and bodies in camp.
I agree if these were the next starters then yes we are in trouble.
No one said they were the next starters....

I look at the UDFA'S list and there is some solid talent out there....

QB postion not so much...
