      wow, yet again the front office can not think of a way to get things done before the last minute. and their answer will result in byrd being gone next year.

      Russ Brandon should run for congress. he can't get **** done, promises things all the time, never delivers and asks for more time.

        Maybe Byrd wants to see that the ship is righted before signing long term?
        I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
        "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
        You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
        It was all
        true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
        He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
        mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

            Makes sense to tag Byrd for 5-6 million and try to get Levitre a long term contract.

              Byrd's tag was really not that much, maybe it's non-exclusive (less $) & we can get 2 first round picks from somebody ?

                I like Byrd a lot, but nobody is giving us 2 firsts for him.

                And I will wait and see how things shake out before I'm convinced Levitre walks. They met with both agents at the combine, so I'm hoping they just tagged the one they are farther away from signing. We've certainly got the room.

                  Well, they could have let him walk in general...could be worse.

                    Brandon? If you are blaming who (IMO) was marketing manager prior to this year for past FO moves ,are you going to him credit for extending Kyle and Freddie?

                        No surprise. I think the entire world knew this was coming since December. Standard practice around the league every single year. You try to work something out quickly, it usually doesn't quite get there and then you tag. It's from this point that we will see how the Bills feel about him. Sometimes teams use the tag to buy time to come up with a nice long-term deal. Other times, teams use it to ride out the season and let the guy walk because they feel they have better odds with next year's FA and draft classes.

                          Byrd responds.... It's all good.
