Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

[Bmax]

With Levitre sure to demand big money can we really afford him ? With our needs at LB, SS, CB, WR, TE..I say no he will command a salary of over 5 million plus a season at the very least more likely 6.5 to 8 mill.. Too much . Especially during a year when the draft offers some real good players at the position Guard is a position where you can find players in the draft every year. I say rd 3 for the bills. Guys like Pugh.. Winters.. Long.. Warford in rd 2 may be there for the taking...Plus with Urbik signed and Rhinehart a rfa the bills could get through a year while a guy get his feet wet...Value is better spent on a couple of positions mentioned above then all money on 7 mill plus guard...

If I had to choose between contract extensions for Byrd and Levitre, I am going with Byrd. If that means Levitre is gone, then so be it.

The only way I'm down with Levitre walking is if he's replaced with not just Warmack... but Loadholt or Flucker are added as well.

if not... Piss off loser.

Why the love for Loadholt? I'll admit I'm usually one that screams for improvement on the O-line every year but it's not going to happen this offseason. The only way I take Warmack is if we trade down and some teams gives us a teen draft pick and another pick in the mid to late 2nd Round.

Loadholt isn't a great pass blocker but has made improvements but he's a BEAST with run blocking... Hint... CJ Spiller is a running back.

In other words Loadholdt is what you expect out of a RT. CJ was as dynamic as he was with in 2012 Hairston manning RT imagine what he might do with a healthy Erik Pears who helped Freddie out in 2011. Building on strength is a good thought but improving on weaknesses is a better thought if ask me.

I agree. Byrd over Andy.

Erik Pears sucks.

Re: Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

They won't be able to afford keeping him if they want to improve the team overall and Byrd is a MUST keep.

Re: Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

Erik Pears sucks.

I think he's better than Hairston.

Re: Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

I think he's better than Hairston.

Agreed... Different flavors of the same loaf however.

Re: Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

The Bills shouldn't let Byrd or Levitre walk. Very dumb if they do so, anyone that thinks otherwise is dumb too.

Re: Bills Should let Levitre walk !!!

No. I am sick of actually drafting good players, then letting them walk. We always complain about our crappy drafts. But when we do draft someone of value and with talent, we don't resign because we'd have to pay them "too much money for what they are worth." You stay in a state of rebuild if you keep opening holes, and thats what would happen if Levitre is not here next year.

It isn't just the Bills who do, or have to do, this though. It's a double edged sword - the better your draft class is in any given year, the more likely you are to lose some of those players, when FA comes around. There are a lot of teams with the same sort of issues, and a lot of those teams, will let a good player walk.

Our draft classes are never "better." Some teams can have great drafts and then not have to worry about dropping a couple of those good picks. We get so few good players out of a draft we cannot let them go. When we draft 3 or more quality starters per year consistently I will be ok with letting some walk.
