Now that we save $7M on Orton's retirement...

[Yasgur's Farm]

Looks like a no brainer for the Bills to grab Cutler and the Bears 1st.

no chance they would give up their first as well... but we could get a pick out of it

I would take Cutler in a second.

You're being sarcastic right?

Re: Now that we save $7M on Orton's retirement...

Is that an actual possibility? Could we really get Cutler and a 1st/2nd round pick? I'm not saying I would do it, I just can't believe it could happen.

The Bears cleaned house, firing both the GM & Trestman.

I would not be surprised if Cutler stays at least one more year in Chicago.

It's possible in the twilight zone that some zoners live in!

No I'm not.
Who else would you like ? EJ throwing ten yard passes into the dirt ?

That post was directed at the post suggesting we could get a draft pick and Cutler

That's ridiculous.

I'm talking strictly Cutler.

Re: Now that we save $7M on Orton's retirement...

The idea has to be explored. Not much of a choice. There is a huge drop of QB in the draft between options 1 &2 and the rest of the class. The Bills already have a project in EJ. Sanchez the best FA to date.

I think the point behind the pick is that we will be on the hook for a ton of cash that Cutler is not worth.

They would benefit greatly by getting him off their books.

I don't think I've ever heard of anything like that happening before, wouldn't they just cut him?

They can't cut him this offseason. All of the guaranteed money would count against next years cap, which is something like $34 million. They would be in salary cap hell if they cut him. Keep him or trade him, those are their options. I have to think they keep him, as apparently they'll have to give up too much to get rid of him...which is a ridiculous thing to say.

If you bring in Cutler, who would be your OC ?

Has Cutler gotten along with any OC?

Heck after what I saw this year let cutler call his own plays.
