I'm no NFL GM but I'd prefer to keep the good ones and upgrade the bad ones.

I don't want to trade Cam either, but I don't think there's such a thing as dead money when you trade a guy, is there? I don't think that would be a factor, in this scenario.

I'd be willing to trade just about anyone if it brought back multiple proven players. But that doesn't happen in football trades. So trading is just something teams do when they are desperate to get rid of a guy, be it for cap reasons or poor performance, and get just some kind of return. We surely have a cap problem, but Cam is the only good defensive lineman we have, so I don't know why they would get rid of him.

Dude...understand your point from the inexperience side, but our defense has sucked for far too many seasons under the Loomis/Payton tenure with the exception of one~two seasons for that argument to hold...

Would rather have young guys that make mistakes but have the athleticism to make plays to offset those mistakes than old, slow death by a thousand cuts as we've been...

It just doesn't matter. We could bring in every Hall of Famer to have ever played the game and nothing's going to change until there's many different faces on the coaching staff.

He's still gonna be able to command big money... So that's a big NO THANKS.

Pass, would rather develop our own with new position coach. But to be fair, haven't seen Williams play much, just know he's about to get whacked.

If by afford him you mean at a reasonable price, then sure, I guess. If signing him would mean we have no room for any other significant moves (which what money do we have, anyway?) then no thanks.

I'll take him if he wants to "walk on", as it were. But you know some team who loves aging, under performing players will scoop him up at HIS price. The Raiders immediately come to mind as one of those teams.

At a reasonable price sure, but you know if we get him Mickey will just throw the house at him to sign.

Bills players haven't done well here when given money recently - Jairus Byrd and CJ Spiller.

Too expensive
Go and get someone younger,cheaper and hungrier

To pony off a few others here, the Bills to Saints bridge needs to be blown up.

Other than that, it's a no. We don't need a player who spouts off to the media, It's unprofessional. Loose lips sinks ships.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
