To the folks wanting us to draft OL

[better days]

Incog was signed recently and for little money, so I doubt he goes anywhere. The other two, possibly.

I think next year is the year that will happen, not this year.

And Incognito is CHEAP to keep.

The little money part just makes it easier to cut him. Right now he's probably here unless he decides he wants to "help" another of our young linemen, then he will be gone real quick. Or we actually do the right thing and add talent in the draft then we could part ways just as a cold football decision. I'm hoping for the latter. I don't mind that we signed him but let's just say if I was the coach his leash would be more like a choke chain.

Even though I mentioned cutting Williams one could argue he is more versatile as he played OT and OG in the NFL whereas Collins has only played OT as far as I know.

Yeah I thought of that, but I was under the impression that Williams struggled pretty significantly when he played OT in the past. I can't say I ever saw Williams play before signing with the Bills, but I don't remember reading anything very encouraging about him. I'm willing to cut him some slack since I feel the coaching/scheme from last season was very inadequate, but I don't have any expectations for him. I guess if he makes the team he could play OT in a pinch. Hopefully it doesn't come to that though.

That may be for this season, but I think the concept is more to do with what the teams plans are beyond this season - which very well could mean drafting someone this season with the goal of having them ready to play next year after moving on from some of the veterans. Incognito is a stopgap in any event.

Why would the fact Incognito is CHEAP make it easier to cut him?

Unless a player has guaranteed money coming to him, the bigger the contract the more incentive there is to cut that player over a CHEAP player like Incognito.

Even if the Bills are able to pick up a starting quality Guard in the draft, Incognito is cheap insurance & won't get cut unless he screws up.

What happened with Martin won't happen again, I guarantee you. But I do think they'll add a player or two in the draft.

[swiper]

It does if a team is worried about him getting suspended again.

But Rex and Pegula both said they weren't.

Try again.

I hope they do so early.

Not true.

Pegula, Brandon, Whaley & Rex have all said Incognito was on a short leash.

That would imply, the Bills think it is possible Richie will screw up again.

I know, sometimes it's hard to understand things when someone doesn't come right out and say something. If you keep trying, I'm sure you'll understand how it work eventually. We all have faith in you, buddy.

[feldspar]

People forget about Jerome Felton a lot, I think.

That guy can block too. In fact, that's exactly why the Bills brought him in.

Does he account for nothing?

You say this as if guaranteed money is out of the ordinary "unless a player has guaranteed money". It isn't unusual that's the point.

Fringe "middle class" players as Whaley called them usually don't have much if any guaranteed money coming to them by the time a team would consider cutting them.

That's a perfect way to describe Incognito. That's why we need to draft OL

Yes, Incognito would fall into that "middle class" class of players.

But he is the best Guard on the team at this point & even if the Bills draft a Guard that could start right away, Incognito is CHEAP insurance.

If he keeps his nose clean this year, I would expect the Bills to sign him for a few more years on the cheap.

That may all be true but I'll hold off on agreeing how good he is or isn't until I see how he does on the field. Agree on the cheap insurance part.

Absolutely true. They all said publically (Pegula and Ryan anyway) they were not concerned there little man.

Not true little dick.

They all publicly said Incognito was on a SHORT leash.

If they really were not concerned, they would not have made that public statement about him.

aj cann!!

True Idiot. Has nothing to do with the short leash. Go reread it stupid ******.
