There is this sentiment around here that the Bills should save money by not signing the best FA and instead getting 2tier and 3tier players with the hopes of one of these players panning out.
How has this strategy worked? Awfully! In the last 12 years, the Bills are the only team not to make the playoffs. The last time the Bills had a playoff spot and a chance at more was during the 98-99 season, which coincidentally, they were over the cap.
If you look at the top teams in the NFL, all of them have Top Talent and when the times is up, and its time to renew their contracts, most often these teams keep their top talent by paying for it. How can the Patriots, Giants, Packers, ets have so many well paid superstars while the Bills have none? How can they have the money to get even more superstars while the Bills are worrying about the cap?
So in short, the Bills should go out and sign Mario Williams, then Get Mike Wallace or V. Jackson (better than drafting Floyd & DE is not a need) and draft the top LB/CB/OT in round 1/2/3. Those moves would go a long way to helping the Bills become a contender. The best teams have great talent, and we have a chance and the money to get a top DE and WR and we should take advantage of this opportunity.
