    Rumored Bills FA interest : Iupati & Harris

    La Canfora, per Rumblings :

    You'd probably figured that David Harris and Mike Iupati - two players with deep connections to Bills coaches - would be well-regarded by the team in free agency. You apparently figured correctly.


    I'd be delighted with Iupati, but he's going to be pricey now. Probably doable if they juggle McCoy's money.

    Iupati would be an excellent signing.

    Harris does not excite me.

      Thanks Mace.

      I'm a little nervous putting too much stock into LaCanfora. Seems he throws a lot of obvious ***** at the wall to see what sticks. As much as I or anyone would love Iaputi I am not sure it makes sense any longer. The Bills cap situation is suddenly tight and the Bills have Chris Williams, Ritchie Incognito, Richardson, Pears, and Kuoandijo on their roster already. I hope it happens, but IDK. And, while I certainly liked Harris coming out of college, IDK about now. It may be a guy Rex feels comfortable with - but remember, Rex has been criticized by Jets fans for holding onto his pet guys past their prime. (See Bart Scott). I wouldn't hate it. But I think I'd prefer Spikes.

        Me either, But having a signal caller on defense who already know's Rex system could be handy.

        He could also teach the young guys and bring them up to speed quicker.

          We had a cheap one with a ton of promise, a fierce competitive nature, and a hunger to succeed a short while ago. Just sayin'....

              I can't, he had that most awesome foot wide neck, and his name was Posluszny.

              Posluszny Posluszny Posluszny. You have to say it a bunch of times. Posluszny. Too much fun.

                Too hard to pronounce, that's why I always shortened it to Putz or The POS. Well, one of the reasons anyway.

                  Did he play for Rex Ryan and did he run his defense when he did??

                  If not, Really not sure what your point is...

                    If Iupati signs somewhere else, then the draft has real options at G.

                      He played for Pettine's Ryan D and sure did run it as a rookie problem child. That was my point. If you don't know who I'm talking about I don't see your point.

                      I wasn't talking about Poz, that was a funny by Swiper I went along with, but had the most awesome neck in sports.

                        Oh ho, try it, once you do, you have to say it a bunch of times. It's fun.

                          It does, but Iupati is best buy knowing Roman's complex running game and sharing it with the kids. I don't see him coming here unless Rex thinks he's a must have, and I'm not seeing Rex have the best judgement though.

                            I thought your post was an attempt at humor that's why I asked.

                              No worries, maybe it was. After decades, it's seeming funny I take anything seriously anyway.
