Morrison heard opportunity knocking

[justasportsfan]

"Buffalo was always a team that called me from the beginning when free agency first started," Morrison said after his first practice with the Bills Monday. "They were kind of deep at linebacker. And as the numbers kind of got thin, I said, 'You know what, that's a team that I'd like to play for.' Shawne Merriman did a good job of calling me and keeping me in the loop and kind of recruiting me down here, and I'm excited I came down here."

I think Shawne Merriman should be our GM. He's gotten more FAs in than Nix...

Wait, I thought nobody wanted to play for the Bills?

Morrison sees an opporunity to play so he can get another NFL contract.

I think he's playing more for the payday than the Bills

Nix signed Merriman...the circle of trust is complete.

This, in and of itself, is brilliant. Nix signs Merriman. Merriman helps attract other FA's, while Nix continues to do his job. So he adds a powerful assistant GM, who also plays a mean LB.

I don't know how you knock Nix, as opposed to giving him credit for this.

Bravo, Buddy, bravo. Dumb like a fox he is!

I knock him for not doing much else in FA...

When were we ever kind of deep at lb anytime this preseason?

Realistically, what would you have had him do, or done yourself?
