Lets sign some more FA because we all know that works well. This is an absolute joke. Overpay for people from outside, and cant take care of our own players. we weren't even offering anything in the ballpark from what i heard.

its funny how when we overpay and talk about contracts out here, everyone has a justification for it. Dock signs a 7 yr 49 million deal and its crazy. We overpay give 10 million to Randel el, lloyd, carter, arch and its ok?? We screwed this one up. we let a good, improving, massive run blocking guard walk right out the door. Now, we will have to overpay someone to come in and fill his spot.

ABSOLUTE F'N JOKE!

I could not disagree more. Whoever is saying Dock is crap, is whatever. I dont think he's crap, and I wanted like hell to keep him here and the Bills got a hellava football player.

But you understand that the Bills just singed Derrick Dockery to a deal very similar to what Hutchinson signed last year that set an NFL record for an offensive linemen. Do you think Dockery is one of the best offensive linemen to suit up in the NFL?? Hell, he was at BEST the 3rd best linemen on the Redskins last year (behind Samuels/Thomas). Give me a break, I was pissed at the orginization the whole last couple months, ask TAF, but after seeing these numbers, there was NO WAY they could resign Dockery. No freaking way. The Bills are absolutley insane, and Dockery would have been part retarded not to take that deal. I'm not saying we never overpaid people, I'm not saying the deals we gave to Arch, Lloydd are are ok. In fact this basically to me mirrors what we did with Arch, making some guy the highest paid guy at the position, who isnt even CLOSE to the best player at that position. How you can blame the FO for DOCKERY LEAVING (not saying that havent made mistakes), is beyond me.
