Whether or not you are a fan of DB isn't a concern of mine, but if he and the Bills were able to work something out before the draft, would TD have made the deal for Losman? With no reworked contract, TD was forced to make this move to get a QB.
If DB's contract was settled, there would have been more options for the Bills. He couldn't make a deal with anyone except Dallas, so he had no other optinon if he wanted a QB. Where as he could of waited until June 1st. to get a QB, used the 2nd and 5th pick to upgrade positions and wait until next year to get a QB, or draft a QB in the later rounds as a #2 QB. Not that Pete Prisco knows what he is talking about, but his lead paragraph got me thinking. Something went on behind close doors.
Unless there was a verbal agreement to rework the contract, and Losman was TD's guy all along, but he didn't want to make it known, I don't think he could have been too happy with Drew waiting until the draft was done to redo his contract.
