Yeah. John Murphy show.
He has also played with Lawson before in San Fran & told Lawson Buffalo is a GREAT place to play.
I admire that he still wants to play and that he would like to play here. But I think that the Bills are finally dismantling this team and bringing in a 30+ year old vet on the downside of his career would be the wrong thing to do at this point. I'd prefer having young guys play and develop than give too many snaps to a guy that's not going to be here in a year or two.
This just in: Daryl Talley says he wants to come back too
Screw all that. Sign him. Retire him as a Bill. He couldn't be worse than Shep.
When's the last time someone said he wanted to play for the Bills anyways?

Thurman can still run a mean ball I hear.
Spikes wants a job. He will go anywhere that will take him.
I wish he would come back for a year or 2 and retire a Bill
Honestly he is better than what we have

So a vet minimum contract? I guess the question would be if he is better than the backup at his position... Would it be stunting the growth of someone else.
I consider him an upgrade to Greg LLoyd, Brian Smith, and Chris White. I don;t care if any of them are still here.
So if it ends up as:
OLB- Lawson, Bradham, Scott, and a rookie like Zaviar Gooden
ILB- Spikes, a Rookie like Bostic, and Sheppard
I'd be fine with that.

It's official. The Bills are moving to the Champions League (Seniors)
They open in June vs. the Canton Bulldogs. Games start at 11am Saturdays and the early bird special starts serving after at 2:30pm.
And the pre-game features milk, cookies, and games of bingo.
I posted this yesterday... he's basically on an ass kissing tour.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Sad but true
I like Spikes too much to want him on the Bills. Hopefully a team with a shot at the playoffs gives him an opportunity.
Over thinking, over analyzing, separates the body from the mind.

He would be a good defensive leader that would help the younger guys. This is what this team needs besides more talent leadership.
To be the man you got to beat the man!
In a related story, Jim Kelly is interested in competing for the starting qb position. I heard this while having excessive alcohol at a local St. Patty's Day parade.
I would sign him in a heartbeat.
To Gil's point during the season... if he could be that whip that drives Mario to play every down... he is so worth it.
