    Stroud is making $5.5 M per year ......

    Wants a raise after missing ~half of the last 2 seasons?? Who in their right mind is going to pay him?? He was supposed to want out because he wants a team change, when actually he wants to make more change.

    He looks like a great player when healthy but we just went through paying 17 guys that spent alot of the season on IR.

              I thought the current deal is fair considering his lack of playing time the past two seasons...If the Bills pay him what the others got of 5 years 35 MM you are looking at 7MM a year for 8 games...If he showed he can play 16 games then I would not be opposed to re-working it but that is not the case.

                I can't blame a guy for trying to find the best deal for himself possible. Maybe he goes and finds he can't make that kind of money elsewhere, but if he does, best of luck to him.

                  He has years left in his deal, sounds like the work of Drew. Always re-do deals for more money if the player gets better.

                    Does anyone know what the Jags wanted in return?

                      Never really said, I assumed a 3rd rounder w/ a conditional late rounder the following season based on playing time. We are probably going to be writing a thread like 5 games into next season that he is hurt for the season again and thank god we passed.

                        Did you see how much Kris Jenkins got? He's just as injury prone as Stroud. And he was also signed for a few more years. That's why Marcus Stroud's scumbag agent is trying to get more money. He knows that big DTs are a valuable commodity and he has the only one left. If we want to improve our defense, we will pay him. Unless we try to trade for someone else...like maybe Pat Williams....

                          Or that he failed another drug test.

                          It amuses me that Bill fans want Stroud but don't want Moss because they complain about character issues. Has Moss ever tested positive for drugs?

                              for me it comes down to health

                              if he is healthy, then pay him.

                              if not, then only if he is a low risk one year and cut type deal do you sign him.

                              imo with everett getting his help, with us knowing not to sign cowart, but knowing mcgahee and thurman were good. i think the bills medical staff will make the correct call.
