Integrity28 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Like when Mangini brought in Faneca and Jenkins?? He made Faneca at 32 the highest paid O-lineman in the NFL.. And as much as a I loved Big Jenks he played just 23 games in 3 seasons.. No, like Holmes and Plaxico. 2 years removed fro good play, at skill positions. A 32 year old guard is a fine signing, he was playing well the whole time. Not the same at all. Do better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatriotReign37 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This still lines up beautiful for the Rex and Mark Sanchez reunion. Cassel is not the answer and is being set up for the fall so Sanchez can come in and save the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4jets Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Arguably the worst QB in the NFL the last 4 years. Congrats, Rex. All that after talking up EJ Manuel who might be the only guy who was actually worse than Cassell. Not really. A combination of Sanchez and Geno = the worst QB play over the last 6 years years, not just 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas2No99 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Can't knock the move...there's nobody out there at the QB position...might as well get somebody who has had some success at the position in the past. Wouldn't be surprised if they add another vet and/or draft pick. I agree. Considering the slim pickings, tip your hat to Whaley for acquiring a seasoned Veteran QB who can start as a handoff turnstile to McCoy in Rex's offense. I would definitely rather have Cassel over Hoyer, McCown, Fitzpatrick, or Moore. Solid move by the Bills. The Bills FO knows they're not getting to the SB on Cassel's back, but he more than sufficient for managing an offense to make a run and provide an example for EJ Manuel to learn from & get his $hit together. Bills FO still sees EJ as their franchise guy, I believe, but they know he has to sit & learn w/out getting his confidence CRUSHED at an early stage of his professional career.

jeremy2020 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I actually think it's a pretty good move by the Bills. Cassel is not great, he's not good. He's an average game manager. His best asset is his ability to get the ball out and in the hands of players. He's the epitome of game manager which is what they need. They don't need a gunslinger. They've been good enough to win the past year or two and QB play has lost them games. Cassel is good enough to not lose. The under-rated part of it is that it does not mean they have to get in the "No matter who you get, you lose" bidding war for FA QBs. None of the QBs in FA are worth anything, but they're going to get much more money than they are worth. The Bills gave up nothing of note to acquire an equivalent QB who is on a contract with little guaranteed money. They could cut Cassel before the season begins and not really have lost anything. Teams looking for an average option at QB will be paying more than they are worth in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBallhawk Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Wait Rex was blamed for not caring about offense and now he gets blamed for O moves as the GM?? I wish you guys would make up your mind on what to hate him for or better yet move on and talk about the Jets.. Why don't you just go root for the Bills if you're gonna fabricate all this pro-Rex bullsh*t? Honestly, you'll find many people over there that will agree with you and share your opinion. They're just like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeaniec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Exactly, Like the 2009 Jets, as I said. The interesting this is Manuel. Bills are giving up on him after 2 years. A first round draft pick It's up to EJ Manuel if he starts or doesn't start for the Bills this year. He is going to have competition. I see Cassell definitely playing a mentor role with EJ The Bills will also be bringing in another QB. There's much speculation about Sanchez but nobody knows at this point.

Patriot Killa Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 No, we are not giving up on Manuel. Cassell is merely a mentor and back up QB. We will be getting one more QB Thanks for telling us who will start a couple of months from now. Glad we have someone who has that kind of inside information. NOT. C'mon now.. You can't predict with that much assurance what they will do. I seriously doubt they would have traded for him if he wasn't going to be starting.

jeaniec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 This is a good move for that team. Agreed At very least, he'll be a good mentor to EJ Manuel. I doubt we are done with our QB positions yet - I think we will hire one more. At least there has been a lot of talk about getting 2 new QBs this season.

jeaniec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Re-read what you quoted. It says an undisclosed draft pick. Reads to me more like each team is swapping a pick. For example, the Bills trade their 5th for Cassel and Minnesota's 6th, or something like that. You ae exactly right. We (Bill Fans here) are swapping picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeaniec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Everything going on up in BUF just confirms how much influence Ryan had in personnel moves with us. All of the crap the media tried to feed us about how "Ryan was sabotaged by the front office" and how "he didn't have the talent" was garbage. What our roster became was a total reflection on Ryan and what he wanted I think this was true. Ryan didn't have much say in the front office while with the Jets. I think it's a new day for him in Buffalo as he works together with Whaley, GM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeaniec Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Somewhere off in the distance, Mark Sanchez sheds a tear while nibbling on a hot dog. We still have hope that Sanchez will come to Buffalo. There's been a lot of talk about hiring 2 Quarterbacks and the fans would love to see Sanchez here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There not giving up a lot of value for Cassel or paying him a SB, he don't make the team, it is just like a 5th rd pick not making the team. That happens quite often. No loss of cap space, no Money out of the owners pocket. Now, I don't believe it could happen, just not for the reason you stated. I would not be surprised to see them pick up another vet also, Campbell, Thigpen etc a guy that will come in for 1-2 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
