    Things that make you wonder... (On still available FA's)

    1) Greg Jennings- Still unsigned. A very good person on and off the field. Recruited by Stevie. And eerily quite since FA started.

    2) Dustin Keller- Was in Miami for a visit. Close to signing... But as of yet, hasn't. And also another guy that was linked to the Bills and who's rumors have been fairly quite since FA started.

    3) LaRon Landry- Still out there. Rumors of visits but no contract. Also linked to the Bills.

    4) Brandon Gibson- Rumored to be on our radar, and that we had contact with him. Yet he has had no reports from his camp so far in FA.

    Out of all of this the Jennings situation has me the most intrigued. I think his price will be less that Wallace and maybe Bowe but more than Welker. I could see 10 mill per. But the cap hit could be way less depending on the structure. Would the Bills do it? Maybe on a contract with some incentives laid in. I just look at a guy who will come cheaper than Wallace, is the right type of person for the Bills, whom Stevie has contacted, and who fits the sort of role were looking for.

    I would expect Keller to sign with Miami.

    Others that I haven't heard a peep out of include Reed, Freeney, Umenyiora, Urlacher, Fred Davis, DRC, Talib, Henderson. Most of them are older, but still one would think there would be some rumblings.

      He "wanted" a warm weather team but maybe that warm weather team chose Wallace. GB isn't exactly warm weather.

      I'm probably just dreaming but it's odd that things are so quiet in his camp.

      On the other hand, he would be coming to a team with no starting QB... kind of a big deal. LOL.

        I think he was greedy looking for a payday and didn't get it. I bet he goes back to Green Bay as I heard they offered around 10mil/yr.
        I doubt he comes here unless we break the bank because of the QB situation.

          I pay no remaining FA WR more than Stevie

            And logic in me tells me they won't too. But they talked about moving Stevie to the slot and getting that "bigtime" WR.

            I still think they will target that big time guy early in the draft and may sign a mid tier WR to solidify that position.

            But, I just wonder about Jennings. It intrigues me and it wouldn't surprise me if they surprised us with a move like this.

            With a manageable cap hit and plenty of LTBE incentives for injury etc...

                  Report out that Landry is working on a deal with the Colts, has cancelled plans to visit SF.

                    I believe Erin Henderson resigned with the Vikings, if that is who you were refering to.

                      I don't know why any WR or TE would consider Buffalo with our QB situation.

                        Absolutely a real issue at this point. No way around it.

                          Jennings tweeted


                          Interesting...


                          then.

                          Cold weather makes your nails grow faster
                          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.

                            I wonder why our anti-Patriot Missile Bernie Pollard is not already signed by us. I know some say he is bad for locker room chemistry and isn't very good but he hates Patriots and kills one in each game. Two needed Pats on IR per year, this is a no brainer. Sign him.

                              Greg Jennings likely to sign with the Oakland Raiders tonight. Ironing out small details.
