Donahoe hints Gildon ruined his own chance

[G. Host]

Donahoe was also disappointed in having to release linebacker Jason Gildon, a 10-year veteran, whom the Bills signed in July. Gildon's 77 career sacks are a Pittsburgh Steelers record, and the Bills had hoped to convert him into a pass-rushing lineman.

Donahoe said Gildon might have had a better chance adjusting to the new position had he been signed last spring.

Who made the decision to toy with three teams in order to get a better contract? If the decision was by his agent he got bad advice for he was not going to a 3-4 team and needed time to adjust.

I thought in the spring Donahoe said that Gildon wasn't a good fit for the team. Sort of hard to blame a guy for not signing when you're telling the papers that he's a bad fit.

Damn what a mean business. Glad TD is the one to do it.

I did not understand that move! We could have used him, just give him a little time to learn the scheme.

He didn't do a whole lot in preseason. He didn't stand out or anything, which made him expendable

and he was always wandering around in training camp, looking bored.

He's old and washed up, get on with it.

I can't say I am surprised. He sealed his own fate by waiting like 30 days to decide....I am not sorry he is gone.
