    Report: Maclin’s decision came down to Ravens, Eagles not Bills Ravens

    Interesting....


    Two teams ultimately were in the running for veteran receiver Jeremy Maclin. The Bills reportedly weren’t one of them.
    Josina Anderson of ESPN.com reports that Maclin’s decision came down to the Ravens and the Eagles. Yes, the Eagles.

    Percy Harvin says he can come back on a one-year guaranteed deal and give us the best 2.25 games of his life.

      He's on line 2, Decker is on line 1.

        Are you saying that the Buffalo Bills (and for that matter the City of Buffalo) are once again irrelevant?

            I'll give Holmes, Philly Brown and Zay Jones a chance. If Tyrod doesn't have a scheme that he can succeed in, then Jerry Rice in his prime wouldn't help. It's still all about the play calling, QB play and running game.

              Wonder how many people were wild about Jeremy Maclin until recently...

              I wanted him too, but I don't see it as making that much of a difference.

                Well hate that the Bills could not get him. But oh well that is the business.

                  Holmes is good. I think he's an upgrade at WR2 and I liked Woods. He may end up in the slot, but he'll be our #2.

                  We could use another TE though.

                      Don't be surprised if you see Clay playing the slot now and again, either.

                        Oh well, we shall see what we have.
                        I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                        I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                          Good! If he came cheap I'd of loved to have him but apparently he's getting better offers. Oh well.

                            Maclin was a very productive receiver before KC. He doesn't want to be a No. 2, especially on a non-perennial team that doesn't throw. Makes sense, I don't think we needed him anyways.

                              This is crap, it's a business plain and simple players go where the money is, life in the NFL is short make as much as you can while you can. How many high priced free agents sign with the Steelers and for that matter New England, not many because they hardly ever over pay. As a matter of fact even when their best players ask for too much the trade or don't sign them.

                              Just like all the talk here about people not wanting to come here to coach, scout or whatever, there's only 32 places to work in the NFL, doesn't matter were you work as long as there is job in the NFL.
