The Buffalo Bills have signed 5th Round Draft Pick LB Tank Carder. I also believe 7th round pick K John Potter is signed as well.

One thing I do like about the new CBA is how quickly it allows contracts to get done.
Don't like the ceiling, but that's a different story.
COMING SOON...

1) It allows more trades in the top of round 1.
2) It prevents Jamarcus Russel and others from Stealing to much money.
3) It allows the proven players more money.
4) It pretty much ended 1st round hold outs
5) It allows good young players to get to FA faster.
good! the sooner they sign the easier it is for them to take care of their family and concentrate on football

With everything I have read about this dude he is the draft pick I am most excited about.
True fans want wins, not draft picks.
1-Maybe, we need more time to figure that out but if the Redskins deal to #2 is an indication of things to come then maybe there should be less and not more trades.Originally Posted by alohabillsfan
2-Nobody stole anything, its ridiculous to categorize it as such
3-No it doesn't
4-That is a benefit
5-Another benefit
In the end I strongly believe that every player should be looking out for themsleves first. Football is a violent and tough game, if you're fortunate to one day play it for a living, you should go for as much cash as possible all the time. I don't understand people's disdain for hold outs or players asking for new deals because if you were in the same situation you would want the same.
We ask these guys to literally take years off their lives for our entertainment, but then we get upset because they make more than us.
I'll get off my soapbox and I know many people disagree with me, but Im not looking for a discussion on it in all honesty. Nothing can be said to change my mind about this topic. If some team values Sam Bradford at $78 Million than that's what he's worth. It may not be a good investment but that's on the individual team not on the player.
The biggest problem with it DB is the current players hung the future players out to dry because those guys didn't have a say at the time of the negotiations...

I bet a BMX bike and a cattle lariat were part of the deal.
ST Fodder.
ST Fodder can be the difference between winning and losing. Field position matters. The Bills got their figurative bacon saved many a time by good ST play through the recent years.Originally Posted by HAMMER
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm not the reason he will be a career backup. Buffalonians seem to like the guy because he has a cool name. Name is Tank but he plays like an H2.Originally Posted by JCBills

One of the biggest issues vet players had was rookies getting outrageous signing bonuses and guaranteed money. The idea the NFL Commish sold to them was that if you cap rookies that guaranteed money and signing bonus money will come to them.
That's not true however, they won't see anymore than they are seeing now and owners make out like bandits by getting future stars for pennies on the dollar.
Well the players union signed on so tough s***.
If they don't like it they can always fins another line of work.
That has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion. There hasnt been one player whose complained about it.Originally Posted by k-oneputt
And they shouldn't.
Looks like you are the one complaining about it, and you don't count.
