Saw that too. Now let's get Vjax or Dbowe to compliment him. And draft the best pass rusher we can at number 10.

Good move. One fewer hole to fill. I would still like to see us get another big time WR in free agency or the draft, though.

FWIW, WGR are reporting that Schefter has said the deal is for 5 years and $36.25 million.

Good deal. He still has room and potential for improvement.

Need to get someone to compliment him.

Glad it's done tbh.
I don't think SJ has truly the speed to be an out and out #1 WR, or perhaps an 'elite' WR would be a better description there, but he is, and will continue to be, hopefully, a very good one.
The 'price point' isn't a bad one either, as I think he could have gone for anything between $6 and $9 million per if he had hit FA.

Seems like Buddy is following through on how he says he wants to operate, in respect of getting your own good players re-signed.

Maybe now he can buy some real clothes and stop looking like an overgrown child.

Smart move, but if we're serious about competing next season, he will just be the start of other smart moves...

Be aggressive this free-agency, even no one wants to come here, just show me that you're at least trying.

Oh, and don't F up the draft!

This team has had so many mediocre, boring players that Stevie Johnson quickly became one of my favorite Bills in a long time.

$19.5M guaranteed jingle now in his pocket. It should be fun to see what transpires.

Oaf

Stop playing Madden. We're not going to commit 20M/yr + $40M in guarantees for two WRs.

Or Sign a DE and draft a top WR in 1st and another DE in 2nd

deep DE draft can still get players in 2nd

Glad that it finally got done.
Stevie is our best receiver since Eric Moulds and they needed to re-sign him.
Got him at a reasonable price to, 7.25 m per year is not bad.
Now if they can make some aggressive moves in free agency the team can win some more games.

Dang, egg on Pat Moran's face once again. That guy needs to quit his day job for real.

On a side note, what great, great news this is. Anyone who isn't happy about this, I can't really understand.

By signing SJ, the Bills have sent a positive message to our fanbase. I actually am optimistic about our stance w/ FA now.

Go Bills!!!

I'm glad he's back I truly am, BUT I hope the Bills put somewhere in the deal NO EXCESSIVE CELEBRATIONS! you catch the ball in the endzone then get off the field. If the Bills didn't put something like that in the deal they are nuts.

Ever call a betting service that claims they have a winner of a big game to bet on? You call and they tell you team X will win. The next guy who calls hears that team Y will win. 50% of those who call will be convinced the folks at the betting service are friggin' geniuses.
