Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

It's not just Hughes and Blatnick, but also Manny Lawson that makes Anderson expendable.

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

The dead money is spread over 2 years, though. He has $1.5M in bonus allocation and $500K in guaranteed salary so they have $2M in dead money this year. His old cap number was $4M so they saved some room in 2013. He will count another $3M in dead money next year, though.

So? By cutting him we have another 2 million in cap room to add to our 18 million in cap room. There's no one to sign with that. And if we cut him next year, we'd have the exact same $3 million hit.

Oh well, we'll always have that pressure on Sanchez in game one last year to remember him fondly.

Glad to see the Mark Anderson experiment is over! The Patriots suckered us into taking him and he was a worthless POS!

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

Im surprised that we cut him honestly...i know his cap # was definitely the reason why but the damage he did in his career was in the 3-4, and I thought Pettine could make some good use of him.

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

Gee - it was just last year, when some folks here were slavering over him, as a part of the NFL's best DL.

I assume his knee isn't responding well.

I honestly forgot this guy was still around until last week when I looked at the Bills roster.

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

News flash..the Patriots cut players for a reason...just because we look up to them as a franchise doesn't mean that their garbage will make us better. Hopefully, Whaley understands this going forward :)

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

everone associated with the bills last season thought they were a couple players away from prime time so cheap ralph shelled out the huge bucks to land the top two pass rushing free agents. nobody knew that anderson would injure himself early and be a non-factor so they get a pass there. the mistake of the fans was thinking he was more than he had always been - a situational pass rusher only

if he was healthy im sure they would have given him another shot to recapture his '12 magic

Re: Bills Release Mark Anderson

I'll be curious to see what this means for the OLB rotation along with who they bring in with the one open roster spot they now have. Outside of the guys mentioned by others (Hughes, Lawson, Blatnick) I'd be interested to see what Kourtnei Brown does. He's a physical specimen out of Clemson (6'4, 253, 4.7 40) and could be a late bloomer. Also this gives Howard star Keith Pough a better shot at the roster.
