Bills Don't announce signings till Press Conference

[Mahdi]

I think this is typical Bills brass behavior. They like to set up big announcements with a bit of style. No way they are going to send out a V-tExt to announce two of their BIGGEST ever signings. Mario being the richest contract ever for a D player. The Bills are sitting on the announcement till tomorrow when they can set up a big PC and a bunch of HOoPlah. Mario is their meal ticket you really think they won't dedicate a whole day to this event rather than just spoil the intrigue with a tiny text? This isnt Andre Davis.

I'm saying Mario and Meachem are both signed and the Bills will call a Pc tomorrow afternoon to announce it. Makes sense to me. Hope I'm right!

Some dude named Josh Reynolds is saying the deals for Meachem and Mario are done.

Mario's deal is for 110m according to him, LOLOLOL

I certainly hope so time for the Bills to start acting like an NFL tem. This would be a huge step in the right direction

I believe you are on to something, when is the last time the Bills org let us in on any info let alone giving us pictures and video of the biggest FA on the market? Something seems off to me as well. I don't see them releasing any of this unless a deal was pretty much done. They traditionally hold everything very close to the vest.

Almost always something gets leaked though, on purpose or not. Writers have sources with in teams, and stuff gets out.

Re: Bills Don't announce signings till Press Conference

The Bills aren't going to have a press conference or make Mario Williams the highest paid defensive player in the NFL before he has a physical first. And, he hasn't bee in Buffalo long enough to have toured the facilities and had a physical yet (particularly since he is coming off of a season-ending injury, which the Bills will want their MD to check out).

And, of course the Bills will want to have a big press conference if they sign Mario Williams and make him the highest paid player in the NFL--Roger Goodell and everyone in the NFL HQ wouldn't allow them to do otherwise! Don't forget, this may be a sport to us, but it's a business to them and they aren't going to let the second biggest name on the free agent market (behind P.Manning) sign without getting the maximum amount of free PR that they can out of it. That's standard operating procedure these days.

There are ways to keep things internal. There is a reason the timeline was always said to be 24 hours before getting a deal done. They want a PC day. They are building anticipation and excitement = fans buying tickets.

and that's why you (see Nix) don't go to bed until you get a deal done on paper.

Meachem signed with the Chargers and Williams will leave in the middle of the night to go to Seattle. Same old ****ing Bills, no one wants to play here. It's absolutely makes me sick that no great players will come here. At least Buddy tried, I can respect that at the very least.
