And there are now two open roster spots. Time for the latest scrub OL and CB to be signed.

Watch them sign Stanford Routt. Sigh.

I feel bad for McGee. One of the few brights spots from the ineptness of the 90's.

Except he was drafted in 03.

Potter was cut too.

McGee's started 10 games since the 2009 season, he reached a contract extension in 2009 and started 10 games.

Extend McGee, let Greer go, 3 years later it looks like the guy we kept is going to be out of the league.

Early 2000s. My decades of ineptness get messed up

McGee shoulda been cut at least 2 years ago. He has no business still being here.

Except he was still better than what they had.

right on time. the people who don't need to be Ir'd going on IR to bring in no names so we can claim they are on the upswing.

anyone still holding out hope that the season isn't over?

Re: T. McGee and Pears to IR, Potter Cut

Except he was still better than what they had.

He was a terrible man corner which is what we tried to do when we switched to more 3-4. Once we switched to the 3-4, he shoulda been shown the door and a replacement should have been sought out. Then he was constantly getting injured on top of it.

No business still being rostered.

Re: T. McGee and Pears to IR, Potter Cut

Well, McGee lasted about 6 games longer than I thought he would.

Thanks for wasting your prime years in Buffalo, but it's time to go.

Re: T. McGee and Pears to IR, Potter Cut

I'd be OK with signing Routt, but I really wish they'd get deals done with Byrd and Levitre.

Can't wait to see how Easley performs in a real game, and Brooks should get more pt now.

Re: T. McGee and Pears to IR, Potter Cut

If I were Byrd or Levitre I wouldn't sign a new deal with this team. Why tie yourself to a losing franchise when untold amounts of money are on the horizon and possibly with a contender.

Re: T. McGee and Pears to IR, Potter Cut

Unless Hairston falls on his face, I think he's going to be the right tackle for the Bills for the foreseeable future (meaning after this current season too). Maybe the Bills will see if they can trade Pears for a low draft pick. I think it's possible the Bills may elevate Zebrie Sanders from the PS, if he's been developing satisfactorally through the first part of the season. Then they bring back one of their undraftied free agent tackles to take his spot on the PS.

I seem to remember some of us questioning the decision to keep two kickers early on.....

Byrd will get big time money in FA. The Giants made Antrelle Rolle the highest paid safety in the league a few years ago, tells you all you need to know about the safety talent around the league. Teams are desperate for safeties, Byrd will cash in big.
