Thank god.
Now its just a matter of which WR the bills will select at #11.
2 year 3.5 million?? how is it that little amount? josh reed and peerless price got more... doesnt sound right especially with this new market in wr's
holy **** i am pissed now. for 4 million dollars, we could have had him?? na.. lets throw a rookie in there and hope to god he isnt a charles rogers.
great..
unbelievable.
who needs another wr who averages 100 yards a game 4 out of 7 games and tds at the same ratio.

Maybe he didnt want to come to Buffalo.... Some WRs are intimidated by the weather and figure we would be more of a run first team....
for an extra million bucks, he would have come. period.
that is a 25% pay increase.
The other thing is that he took a 2 year deal in Carolina,,, I think the Bills were only looking at someone who was young that would sign for several years,,,and it makes sense,,, I wanted Hackett but im not that upset about not getting him...
The only problem now is that we can't go DE in round 1 anymore. I was hoping for Harvey.
Now I think were forced to go WR with our first pick then go TE with our second and DE or CB with our 3rd.
I think not looking at a guy who only wants to sign short-term is dumb. If you have a need, fill it and draft your long-term guy. The whole "he only wants to sign a 1-year deal" thing makes no sense. Cap-wise, it is a good deal.
Does that mean Dwayne Jarrett could get released?
They now have a very crowded WR corp, Steve Smith, Hackett, Muhammad, and Jarrett.
This no short deals policy is STUPID. A short deal carries no risk. There is no reason not to do it. If a guy does well and wants a better deal, then he's earned it.
This is absolutely ****ing outrageous. We could have had him for a cheap, no-risk contract. Carolina just got a lot better for a hell of a bargain. He's a perfect complerment to Smith just as he would have been to Evans.

Why would they release Jarrett one year after drafting him? If anyone's going its Muhammad.
unbelievable ... less than what Peerless got two years ago. Even if he's not the answer, that's basically trying him out for free, especially with all the cap room that's still left. Nothing to lose.
Courtney ****ing Anderson got a two-year deal!!!
Jarrett was horrible in Carolina last year. halfway through the year he still didnt know the playbook and Steve Smith called him out in a local interview. Last week Jarrett got a DUI here in Charlotte too. He has bust written all over him
They just signed Muhammad.
You guys are all assuming that we had no interest in him. Maybe he didn't want to play for Buffalo? Maybe he turned down our invitation to visit?
Don't jump the gun and blow a cap.
A big reason they signed Muhammed is to provide leadership, and Jarrett was the player they had in mind to be led. I think they hope he shows Jarrett what it takes to be a pro. It is a package deal.
Hackett is a slot receiver, not an outside guy.
Not all WRs are the same. The Bills already have slot guys in Reed and Parrish, what they need are outside guys.
It's not uncommon for guys that were just signed to be let go. My point is that they aren't going to release a guy who they just drafted and gave up a high pick for.
Agreed...I think it is a big wake up call to Jarrett that nothing in this league is a given. Jarrett will probably be the 4th WR this year. With Hackett's injury history I doubt they will get rid of anyone. Plus, Muhammed is not that expensive either.
