Bills | Team expected to lose Clements in offseason

Mark Gaughan, of the Buffalo News, reports the Buffalo Bills will unlikely be able to re-sign CB Nate Clements, who is expected to receive a lucrative offer as a free agent in the offseason.

Translation: He is not worth keeping for what we would have to pay.

Asante Samuels or draft pick. Not too high on Clements and he'll get grossly overpaid

You've got to put everything in context. Maybe he's too rich for the bills blood because of what they want to do in the offseason. Isn't McGahee a FA, too?

Asante Samuels is the guy I want...

I thought there was an agreement between Clements and the Bills that if Nate signed the franchise tag last year, the Bills would not franchise him again? Otherwise Clements would have been a holdout.

McGahee has one season remaining, but the club has not offered him an extension.

In a recent Penthouse interview, WM stated that Toronto should have a team and that Buffalo should just move there. He complained at length about how much he doesnt like Buffalo and the local media is killing him.

WM also is being taken to court for the paternity of Willis McGahee IV, his third child with the third different woman. The first two cases came back positive and he is currently paying child support for those two. The local media wants the team to just wash their hands of him for the sake of the fans.

Wow. He has been a busy little bee. He was also a kind of dog this year, I wonder if it is because he wants to move on.

That is correct. They can't tag him again.I think he'll get overpaid but that will set the market higher for guys like Samuel, if he hits the open market.

Teams cannot franchise a player two years in row under the new CBA.

I prefer Samuel over Clement, too. I doubt the Patriots will franchise him. It would be very unlike the Patriots.

who cares about willis? he is a little rb who has been overused his whole career in buffalo and will be washed up and overpaid in a couple years

They had the best quote about that from the mother. I don't have the exact quote but she said something like, "I don't sleep around, and it's not my husband's baby, so it's gotta be Willis'" It was just hilarious.

lol

this is the first I heard of this - i thought teams could continue to franchise, however they would get a certain % increase each year (as long as it was more than the top 5 average)

 

[phillycard]

He's awesome. That is all.

 

[Toro]

Just like baseball this off season, there will be plenty of NFL free agents getting big dollar contracts. I believe that there are nearly 20 teams with $20M to spend.

NO.

At least I have my reponse book marked now instead of searching for it every time.

Asante Samuel would be a nice pick up, though.

Damn, is he competing with Shawn Kemp and Shaq in the illegitimate child department?

THAT is funny.

Also, she's married, but she names the kid Willis McGahee IV?

He's 6' 228. Not exactly little. As far as being overused, in 3 years he's had 284, 325 and 259 carries.
