    The Price for Peerless will be too high for sure

    Just a comment to all those who thought we could afford him with some cap moves. He is so gone.

    A 1000-yard season demands some big money. The only way I can see us keeping him is if EM can talk him into it and I think his agent will tell him to stay away from Moulds. Any other thoughts?

    Only time will tell. I hope they will be able to work something out though.

      I am beginning to believe that Price is something special. I hope we give him a good offer.

        Me too I do not want the Bills to lose this guy. Not with the offense we have, Drew needs his weapons and Price is definitely one of them.

          I hope we re-sign price but if he asks for too much money I would rather we fix our defense then pay for his price tag (no pun intended ). IMO, we would be better off with a worse offense without PP, and a better defense with a sold DT or someone who can rush the passer at DE. Then again if we can re-sign price and still have cap room to improve our D. Then even better.

            I agree!

              He;s not definitely gone. We will have a lot of room left under the cap at the end of the season. We can also tag him if needed.

              I'm not saying they will re-sign him, but it's not out of the realm of possibility.

                Some people seem to think that he is just a deep threat, but IMO he can do it all. He reminds me of a young Jerry Rice.

                He and S. Moss are the best in the league when it comes to "running after the catch."

                On the bright side, there is no way that there will be a serious drop off in offensive production if he leaves.

                Another thought: Sure, everything is rosy between Moulds and Price now, but what about when Moulds is 35 and Price is in his prime at 31 (just an assumption)? I bet that there personal relationship is going to have a big effect on waht Price decides to do. If Price feels that Moulds will turn the #1 spot over to him when the time is right, he may be more likely to sign.

                Also I would not be pissed at him if he left. He could easily be the #1 guy at at least 7 or 8 teams, arguably more. Every receiver dreams about that You only live once.

                Also, how big is his family. 40 mil instead of 30 mil is important when you have 40 brothers, sisters, and cousins you want to take care of.

                If he leaves I am sure he will have nothing but good things to say about Buffalo

                Even if he leaves, maybe he will come back after 4 or 5 years when he realizes that it sucks to play in Cinnci or wherever he may go. Not many do but there are some. Shannon Sharpe is one.

                  We should make every effort to make Price a fair offer to stay. He isn't much of a number two guy having twenty less receiving yards than Moulds and two more touchdowns. I don't think either of those guys cares who gets more of what they just want to be in the game and have the opportunity to make plays. Can we afford to have two number ones? I hope so.

                    $4 or $5 mil per season might be what we pay him. I did not think we would before, but now I am not sure.

                        Incidently did you guys see Price & Moulds at the podium together yesterday after the game? That is a good sign.

                          I was thinking we would give him a slightly low ball offer and let him walk if he wants big cash. I still think Moulds is a much better player, but Price is that second part of the one two punch.

                            Price will be on the team next year guarenteed. His comments after the game of "being the start of something special" says he wants to be in Buffalo. Where else can he go where he has a QB, an RB and another WR like Moulds to get the numbers he does, the only teams that are going to offer him a big payday are teams that are at the same level or worse. You know Drew and EM will be talking to him and while his salary will go up, there will be room to address other positions. All you have to do is look at Moss' and K Johnson's, without a second threat they are taken out of there game.
                            I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.

                              He's gone because we won't be able to afford him. Moulds stays, Josh Reed becomes the next go to guy.
