Eagles will throw everything plus the kitchen sink at Byrd

[Ellsworth]

He's ours

[Big Little]

Where'd you hear that bull?

[Sect 236]

Myths McLane says the Eagles don't value Byrd as high as we the fans do. His opinion, slim chance they offer him the $$$ he wants.

Then again, this is Myths McLane.

I hope he's right.

[The Ref]

Word around Buffalo is that Byrd has an attitude problem and too high an opinion of himself. He was tagged last year. He's already turned down a contract from the Bills that would have made him the highest paid safety in the league.

Something about this guy smells bad to me. Maybe he just wants out of Buffalo. I dunno.

[Ellsworth]

Any pro in the last 20 years wants out of that fucking town. It's Siberia. Miserable for 8 months a year. Fat, ugly women and depressing as hells hit, Rse volunteered to move ther. Let him fill you in.

[JDuggernaut]

Id take him in a heartbeat. Not sure he deserves to be the highest paid safety in the league, but he would be a huge upgrade, and you cant fault anyone for having a bad mood playing in Buffalo. They're not committed to winning, and if not for Marv Levy they would probably be known as the worst franchise in the history of the league. Either them or the Lions

They said similar things about jason peters in buffalo. Chip kelly knows him from oregon. If jarius byrd comes here a poor atitude won't be a problem.

I remember a guy named Marshawn Lynch who was very unhappy in Buffalo and was traded away for a middle round pick.

I wonder how he's doing these days?

per sources in Buffalo, Byrd is balking at a deal from Bills that guarantees $30m in the 1st three years.

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10...ach-standstill

People familiar with the situation told The Associated Press talks have stalled and no further discussions are scheduled after the Bills made a lucrative, multiyear offer to Byrd. Without revealing the full value and length of the offer, one person said Byrd would have been paid about $30 million over the contract's first three seasons.


The people spoke on the condition of anonymity because neither side has publicly discussed negotiations.

Unless a deal is reached, the Bills have until 4 p.m. Monday to apply the franchise tag on Byrd and retain the player's rights before he would be eligible to become an unrestricted free agent on March 11.

[Drama Queen]

If the Bills offered him a contract that paid $30M in the first three years and he didn't sign, then why not use the franchise tag at $8.4M for one year?

The numbers being reported don't make sense.

[Ellsworth]

probably some non guarantees or some shit. how the hell should I know?!

just be happy we are about to get his ass!!

[Drama Queen]

You're right.

I just wanted to sound smart.

[Loki]

Is that the word from the hipster bands you mix

who come to LA from Buffalo?
