    The Bills’ Salary Cap...

    The Bills’ Salary Cap
    By Mark Weiler
    Date: Mar 23, 2005

    Bills’ GM Tom Donahoe is on the hotseat this offseason and season. His biggest decisions have been heavily laden with risks more often than not. However, the one thing that many credit him for is “getting the Bills out of a cap mess.” But how has Donahoe fared in this regard and where has it left the team speaking capwise currently. It is one thing to get a team’s cap under control, but it is entirely another to field a competitive team while doing so.

    Does anyone have the complete article?

      he knows nothing period, but he's pretty good at pretending like he does.

              Dozerdog, Thanks for the link. Bills Buzz seems to be extremely interesting.

              Clumping, Why Donahoe doesn't know nothing about the cap?
              IMO he is above average to sign FA but his weaknesses are to sign his own drafted players and some gamble issues...

                    This guy will say anything to kill the Bills. Every week he comes up with something to kill the Bills on no matter what they do. If they signed Joe Montana in his prime he would say that Montana doesn't have a strong arm and that Jerry Rice made him look good.

                      1. He needs an editor; pronto.

                      2. As CP said, he knows nothing about the cap.

                      3. He needs a new team to root for. Personally, the way he acts he either really hates the Bills or needs to adjust their importance in his life.

                          I'm just letting you know that you have been given 2 points for telling Wys AKA Mark to kill himself.

                              Constructive criticism is one thing. Complete and continual negativity is something else. I think Mark has totally lost his objectivity and, instead of simply trying to elicit some lively and intelligent discussion on Bills' issues, he actually believes what he writes.
                              Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
