We wuz robbed!

[northernbillfan]

An undisclosed future draft pick for Gary? WTF!

They ripped us of. It was almost a sypmathy trade for taking out one of their backs in the preseason.

We Wuz Robbed Blind.

Relax - Gary was our 4th RB, and Willis is on his way. And we actually got something for him.

[robeezy]

I just hope it was a high pick. Maybe 3rd or 4th with a conditions up to 1st round if Gary eates it up in Motown.

I doubt anywhere near that high. Probably a 5 through 7.

"<i>The team's most significant move Sunday was trading running back Olandis Gary to the Detroit Lions for an undisclosed draft choice. It is believed the pick is a seventh-rounder, but it could end up being as high as the fifth round depending on Gary's playing time and production</i>".

Thanks man and WELCOME BACK!!! :up:

Besides, if we kept him the Fins may have gotten something for Edwards instead of just releasing him. :D

[TigerJ]

I concur that Gary was gone in any case. He even said so after the trade. The Bills signed him as a FA and traded him for a pick. TD is the man!

[Kicker22705]

i read somewhere the only reason Gary was signed was to deceive other teams. make them think we wouldn't take Magahee with our first rounder.

as for getting a pick for nothing by trading gary, this isn't all that necessarily true, considering we swallow his signing bonus money, which is relatively insignificant in the NFL world.

damn i'd loved to be a 3rd string nfl qb, get paid 300k a year to watch games on the sideline. hell yeah, sounds like my kind of job.

I read somewhere we only gave him a signing bonus of like 175k.....if thats true that aint sh**.

[mikemac2001]

i liked gary but it was a good move....we got a pick for someone we signed as a FA and dont really need

Just had to add us to the conversation, won't be a real one without us, would it..:hump:

[northernbillfan]

I can handle 175G signing bonus. If that's all it was, I'm okay with that. Anything around the 400 or half a million mark, would bother me.

I still think we could have deserved a little more for him.
