Re: Steussie released

The dude is 34, on the down side of his career. Is he hurt?

[ParanoidAndroid]

Re: Steussie released

Not interested. He's older and he's a right tackle. I'd bet he's way too slow to move to the right.

Re: Steussie released

Has olny missed one game in his career
Being let go for salary cap reasons.

He also plays LT

Verba better?

Re: Steussie released

Whats Verbas deal? If he doesnt get what he wants is he going to just not play? Or will he settle and play for a team for cheap? The clock is ticking...A move has gotta be made by him soon right?

He can come here for the 1 yr vet min deal

Re: Steussie released

We are pretty weak as far as experienced depth at offensive tackle. I think bringing him in for the veteran minimum would be a good idea. If Williams or Gandy goes down, I think he would be a better alternative than McFarland or Peters right now. If nothing else he would be a good mentor for the young tackles.

He never payed well again after he was off the Roids. Does this sound like a guy the Bills would sign ?

I actually agree, although I'm not usually in favor of bringing in older, declining players. At the vet minimum, this guy could fill the Marcus Price role.

Re: Steussie released

I might be interested in Steussie...I would like to have him work out for McNally and let him decide.

My personal choice for a veteran signing would be Price because he is familiar with the system and has a feel for the other guys.

I look at it this way...there is still a very good chance that we sign a LT. I think Donahoe is waiting for the right moment to pounce. If we were willing to go into the season with Henry's salary on our plate, why not a veteran Tackle which is an area of need? Now we might be approaching the right time to git er done.

Re: Steussie released

Is Marcus Price still a free agent ? If he is we need to sign him now. He was very valuable as an injury fill in for us. Is he injured or something ? Is he asking for Orlando Pace type money ? I doubt that. I wonder why a decent tackle who's not very old (30 maybe ?) and has starting experience isn't on a roster somewhere.

I think Price has a bad knee, perhaps a chronic condition at this point.

Jan,

I agree that there must me something going on there....but why have we heard absolutely nothing about it? Does anyone have a link to any information about Price?
