    Yeah. Probably go with freddy mccoy and dixon. Unsure about bryce brown.

    It would be nice if Brown could get his fumbling under control. Didn't we trade a draft pick for the guy?
    Why not use McCoy and spiller and get rid of the other two bums? I know spiller is getting paid a lot, but it makes sense to keep them both and use them both.
    Better yet, we can see if one of our ten rbs can play qb.

    Wow big trade for the Bills. I thought you guys had pretty good RBs but Shady can be a beast when he is happy. As a fan of football I would like to see Buffalo be really good again. I liked watching the games shown from there when it was Kelly, Thermal, Reed and Brucie.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    i'm the biggest mccoy fan around....but he's got only a couple good years left and he's owed a ton of money. can already tell he lost a little bit last year. long term, i like this for the eagles. i'll be rooting for him up in buffalo though.

    also, i'm not too sure shady is a rex ryan kind of running back too. should be interesting...

    His contract runs through 2017. Buffalo ought to be able to get 2 good years out of him

    I was really angry about this deal at first. I mean, RBs are a dime a dozen. I feel like Kiko has so much upside to be a superstar LB in this league. I know he blew up his knee but his rookie year was phenomenal. That said, Buffalo did quite all right without him last year on D and maybe they know something about his knee.

    I hope it works out for the Bills.

    Good luck with Shady. We will miss him. It should be interesting when you come to town this year.

    Vikings say they are trading Matt Cassel to Buffalo for an undisclosed draft pick.

    Hopefully it'sa 2018 6th rounder. That's all I'd pay for him.

    Looks like the signed a new deal with lesean mccoy. 5.5 million cap hit this year. Not shabby

    Sounds like it is a discount from what he would have gotten on a wide open market. Sounds great. Thanks to the reduced McCoy number they will probably go for a TE and a G too. Rumors say Bulaga and also an offer sheet for Clay

    Since Andre Johnson wants out of Houston, why not go get him?

    Well, this is interesting: Bills also expressing interest in free-agent CB Darrelle Revis, per sources. Rex does love his CBs...

    That's a shitload of money. Clay is a decent TE, but don't think he's worth that much.

    That is nuts. Clay is trash.

    Trash?

    I don't know about that.

    He is a jack of all trades for TE. is a large upgrade for Chandler (and any TE the Bills have employed, maybe ever... but at least since Riemersma). He fits in very well with our OC Greg Roman and I'm sure he was hand picked/targeted by him.

    And... its really not that much money if he produces and blocks for the running game. Especially considering you virtually had 2 TEs who would be eating up that same money and an additional roster spot. Lee Smith makes $3 million a year to block, and Chandler was signed to $5.3 million to catch passes (and be fairly uninspiring athletically). It is basically the same deal as Kyle Rudolph got, and remember the cap always goes up and the Bills are still in good shape.

    They needed this tight end and specifically targeted him. Graham, Cameron, Gresham, J Thomas, Owen Daniels, and even had Chandler in-house. They went directly for Clay, despite there being a Transition Tag on him.

    Lol, I'm sticking with trash. Of course, I've been opposed to alot of the moves the team has made this off season.

    Schedule came out. Nothing earth-shattering. We knew about the London game,

    its nice to have 8 home games and a Neutral Site game.

    Starting out against the Colts and Cheaters is a little brutal but those games are at home.

    Tough stretch in November/December when they have like 1 home game in 7 weeks or something.

    Cold weather games against the Texans/Cowboys towards the end plus the Jets at the end.

    Primetime Thursday @ Jets and then Monday @ the Pats should be a cool stretch.

    Home games are all at 1PM Sunday, as a STH I prefer that. Love the routine.

    Jacksonville in London at 930AM will a cool party to watch it somewhere with people.

    I like the bye week close to the geographical middle of the schedule

    For the first time in a long time the BILLS are being picked ti win the East division. The cheaters as MD10 calls them are picked to be third this year, we shall see. None of that matters one bit as long as there is no major injury to Brady the Patriots once again will take the division title.
