Sea Bass could be a FA after the season

[BuffaloRanger]

Oakland is trying to sign Sebastian Janikowski to a contract extension, since the kicker has voided the rest of his original deal, and can become an unrestricted free agent. Janikowski has hit 18 of 21 field goals in 2004, including five of seven from beyond 40 yards.

It's at the bottom of the gray column.

I'd take him over Lindell. The Buffalo Pollocks (I married one) would love him!

I would boo him everytime he came on the field....

[Marvelous]

I would shave my eyebrows outta joy if we signed him. Think of all the touchbacks.

[DaBillzAhDaShiznit]

Janikowski is the perfect fit here in Buffalo.

BIG leg and he is a fat ass to boot. I can already see the "Kickin Chickin Wing" promotions....

[ryjam282]

Noooo thanks.

[venis2k1]

not for more than 1.5 mil a year. he will make our team better though.

ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

The guy is made for Buffalo!

I say if we are gonna start Drew next year, or keep him as a backup,
you only need 2 QBs cause Drew is so damn sturdy....

So take the funds you would be paying your third string QB and Lindell, and make a run at Janikowski.

He would make this team a lot better in terms of opposing teams drive starts and the ability to make some long f/g's.


DO THE RIGHT THING TOM!

I can see the other promotion...

"Get some GHB and drug your next potential victim....."

pass.

[THATHURMANATOR]

Who cares as long as he can kick the ball. I would take him. Lindell consistantly misses big kicks.

that sounds like something a dolphins fan would say.

TheBrownBear says don't knock GHB til you try it. He had a real good time one night while rummaging the trash bins at a nightclub.

Janikowski

Janikowski would make the team better in terms of kicks, but probably hurt team chemistry, at least a little.

I'd rather have LT Walter Jones from Seattle. He's a free agent after the season. Jones-Williams as the tackles? That sounds pretty nice to me... Alexander and Hasselback I believe are free agents too at Seattle, so it's possible they won't be able to sign all three of those guys. Pay attention TD...

TheBrownBear says that placekickers play no role in team chemistry. And for what it's worth, Janikowski is well liked by his Silver & Black teammates.

Janikowski may be well-liked by his Raiders teammates, but that's because their team chemistry is based on an outlaw, anarchic image. The Bills don't have that. They are more blue-collar, lunch pail-kinda guys, and Janikowski's dance club, drug abuse, woman abuse doesn't fit into that image as well as the Raiders.

True, a kicker is not responsible for chemistry as much as a quarterback, or other positions on the team, but if you are relying on your kicker to, say, win the Super Bowl for you (we've all been there...) wouldn't it be nice for the team, the kicker, and the fans to be in full support, instead of everyone viewing the guy as a jerk?

Still, LT is more important IMO. A Walter Jones would be a dramatic upgrade over Jonas Jennings, would improve Drew's blind side blocking (of whomever the QB is), and would balance the running attack to both sides. There are other kickers out there who aren't as pricey as Janikowski that would be an upgrade over Lindell.

Travis "sex with 14 yr-olds" Henry and Eric "Biological Didn't Bother" Moulds are not exactly upstanding citizens in TheBrownBear's view. But Bills fans have opened their arms to these prodigal sons. SeaBass is no worse.

Take a look at the fans' favorite player:
