    Volek closer to re-signing with Ten, but late Buffalo charge may keep them alive...

    According to this article:



    1) Volek and the Titans have been negotiating and appear closer on terms. They appear to be the favorites.

    2) Atlanta has backed off on their interest, but hasn't completed been eliminated by the agent. Of course, Atlanta has said they have dropped out, and the agent is probably is just try to keep his bargaining position strong.

    3) Buffalo made a late offer that still gives them a shot at signing Volek.

    That last item is the most interesting part of the article for Bills fans. It states:

    The new X factor in the talks, however, might be the Bills, who made what Staninger called “a very competitive” offer when they talked to him Friday.

    “Their initial proposal was far behind what the others were, but their latest offer is very competitive,” Staninger said.

      If he wants a decent chance to start he comes here. I'm getting sick of Volek. If he does not make up his mind today I hope we just back out. He needs to either $#it or get off the pot!

        I hope Volek makes us his choice. He could get to play this year for us, if Buffalo messes up, then if he does well, he could take over the starting role, and I don't ever see that happening in Tennessee w/ McNair who would play if his arm were falling off.

          Absolutely like you said if this guy actually wants a chance to start instead of money then I'm all for him coming here but if he is just interested in the money then he can go to hell.

              Agreed. He is just trying to get the best offer possible and make both teams wait. More and more it looks like he wants to just stay in Tennessee but wants to get a very nice paycheck, kinda the same thing with Alex Van Pelt. Get paid nice money to hold a clipboard.

                  He sint worth the money and for a backup he seems to think he is worth a whole lot more than he is.

                  He can keep his cocky overrated ass in Tennessee.

                    it does not make me happy to hear that we originally offered him a low amount, but then increased it significately..

                    but how friggen high could it be.. i mean we are competing with a cap strapped tennessee team that is trying to pay a back up qb.. it could only be so bad.

                      I still want Volek as long as we aren't paying him an arm and a leg.

                            If we offered him anything more than what AVP signed for last season, I'd be pissed.
