I still want Dansby

[X-Era]

Vet depth if nothing else. We needed LB upgrades and he is one regardless of whether we have Alonso.

Please get it done Buddy.

Re: I still want Dansby

I doubt the Bills will be willing to PAY Dansby now. If he signs with the Bills it will be on the cheap, but I would love it.

I felt like they were only offering cheap money anyway.

Hard to say. They may have offered him good money but for only a SHORT term like one year. It looks like Dansby has seen his last big contract when he signed with Miami. I hope they can sign him to a two year contract a backup/part time player deserves.

Re: I still want Dansby

Buddy said that the Bills were keeping in contact with Dansby at his latest press conference yesterday. I'm paraphrasing, but it was something like that.

It was clear that there is still a chance we may get him.

Re: I still want Dansby

Yeah he seemed to say it isn't over. But he did seem to also say that they don't feel they need him as much now as well.

Re: I still want Dansby

i dont think anything changes regarding dansby. saying theyd keep in contact with him is pretty clear buddyspeak for if we can get him at our price wed like to do that. im sure theyd much rather have someone of his stature in the rotation to minimize the need to thrust their younger players right into the starting lineup. seems obvious is depends on dansby overestimating his salary drawing power so when he ready to take a job somewhere i hope its here

Re: I still want Dansby

I hope they do get him, and I'm not too bothered about paying him decently, on a 2 year deal.
Firstly, I think he's got two more good years in him, at least.
Secondly, I believe he's the sort of leader a young LB group could profit from.
I also think he would do a very good job of helping our run D improve.

Cut Brad Smith and pick up Dansby. The cap hit would probably go down at this point and the Bills would have someone who can contribute.

I think he would be a good fit. Solid LB that I cant imagine would cost much at this point. Isnt great in coverage or as a pass rusher any more, but can still thump in the run game and can run a defense and get everyone lined up. He also has experience in playing in a 34, 43, and hybrid defenses.

Doesn't Dansby ***** about everything? Is that a good role model for younger players to emulate?

He can be whiny and outspoken when you'd prefer him to tout more of the company line.

Re: I still want Dansby

i dont know anything about him *****ing about everything.. but i think he would be another huge addition to our roster.

Re: I still want Dansby

I'm not saying I don't want him in the team, but there's a reason why he's STILL unemployed in the NFL. I doubt its because of money.

I'd rather use the $ to extend Byrd.
