I too think Branch should be the pick if he's stiill there at #6, but who knows, maybe we'll forego the best D lineman in the draft and take Leon Hall since we seem to be desperate for a CB. So far we've traded Portis to Detroit, and Betts to the NYJ. I'm trying to figure out who is going to run the ball for us.

when did we trade portis to detroit and leon hall cant guard dwayne jarrett or ted ginn so i dont want to see him guarding plax or terrell owens he is overrated this is not a cornerback friendly draft and we should stick to the defensive line

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

The problem with Smoot is that he simply doesn't fit our defense that well. Our CBs are required to be able to cover, which he can, and play the run well, which he doesn't. He is simply too fragile to be a force in the run stopping department. I think he adds depth and a knowledge of the D but I hesitate to think he'd have a huge impact.

I really think we are up a creek if CR doesn't make a step forward next year.

it was a rumor

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

Has Clements already had the tag put on him last year, or is that still an option for the Bills??

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

Bills wont tag him. They are cheap and a CB tag is the second highest tag. It is over 10 million I think. No way they're shelling out dough like that. Hell the guy is considering selling the team

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

Kind of unrelated... but do you guys think that we will tag Dock if we cant resign him?

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

I'm not sure that either Briggs or Samuel were very high on our target list to begin with.

Briggs is an OLB and it appears we are set on acquiring a MLB and moving Marshall back to the outside to compete for that job with McIntosh, and Samuel isn't an ideal fit for GW's defense.

Yeah they can't afford to commit to a guy like that when they have so many other needs. Plus like you said it's Buffalo, they're not known for dealing out big contracts.

Here's a recent article from ESPN about Clements

[url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2768641&campaign=rss&source=NFLHeadlines]ESPN.com - NFL - Bills' free agency budget could affect resigning Clements[/url]

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

The odds are we are going to get a Smoot or a Harper now.Clements just went way up in money and there is a lot of teams that want a corner.So we wont be able to sign him.I think we need to resign Springs for sure now.

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

I guarantee we sign Nate Clements perfect fit for the skins defense and he he said last year when they tagged him that he would love to play for greg williams defense and when he was tagged that is when we went after archuleta and i think we should have kept ryan clark and plus it is dan synder and the redskins they will pay for Nate Clements and has fred smoot been cut yet

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

I hate to tell you ,but we are not the only team that needs a CB.He might like GW and all,but he likes money more.So expect him to go to a team that can give him more money.

Re: Remove Briggs, A. Samuel from FA Shopping Lists
 

it is the redskins man of course we will pay him what he wants we will restruct contracts and sign him
