    Bryson will be a sought after player this offseason.

    He won't be on the Bills next season. The FA pool of RBs is paltry with Stacey Mack being the only other decent RB. Cap-cuts may add one or two maybe, but nothing stellar.

    His injury risk will slow down negotiations, but I think many teams will be interested.
    Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!

    Then let's go to Disneyworld!

    GO BILLS!!!

    With his injury history he will have to sign a one year deal for the minimum.

          I wouldn't be so sure about that Eb. There's a huge hole in the FA market for RBs and many teams that could use one. I definitely think he'll get more than that in some sort of layered deal or with huge incentives.

              I agree with Eb.......3rd knee injury, 2 with the Bills. 1 yr deal at the vets minimum and he gets some incentives, nothing spectacular

                If he gets through his rehab well, he could return for a song.

                  he'll be a backup wherever he goes.

                      Me either! Losing him will be like losing nothing! He had one big game in 3 years. Whoopie!

                        Watch out for the next Bryson novel.

                        Some fans tend to think that some of our players are better then they really are. Shawn Bryson's are a dime a dozen. He might get some incentives, but there is no way in hell they will be huge.

                        Bryson will be the same with any other team he joins. Drew Bledsoe can break tackles better then this guy. He is a good backup to have when he's healthy, which isn't very often.

                        Bryson can't stay healthy as a 2nd stringer with minimal carries. There is no way in hell he's gonna stay healthy if he was the main guy.

                        Bryson will always be 2nd string. He's not a starter, and never has been.

                          Not that I'm a Bryson lover, but wasn't this what we said about Antowain Smith? He did have a great 2001 season, when used properly.

                            Look, I'm not big on Bryson either after this injury especially. I don't care the he's leaving. My only point was that it's not a deep FAcy market for RBs. Many teams need an RB and likely Bryson gets paid more than he's worth b/c of the lack of talent out there.

                            Who, Stacey Mack is the best available vet RB that I could find.

                            I agree, he's not the best by any stretch and at this point, likely a backup. But, as BFSIW just pointed out, we've said similar things about other players and they were not correct.

                            Bryson is a huge risk, but the upside is good if it pans out. Again, likely he'd get a contract w/ some incentives in it.

                              The draft's pretty deep at RB isn't it? I don't see anyone paying more than the vet min. with some small incentives for Bryson.
