Oh, and for all of you that were thinking Evans failed a physical, wrong! The official announcement of his release came in the same announcement of Colston's release. It was Colston that failed the physical. I can't find ANY record of Evans failing a physical. There was a poster on the Bill's forum that confused the aforementioned announcement and posted that misinformation.

I wasn't one that said he failed a physical as I haven't tracked his off-season. I don't care. But you are flat out wrong that there are no rookies who could have been better. Evans isn't just diminished. He's not very good, period.
I've argued with you many times before, but this is maybe the most ridiculous one we've had. You have no possible way of knowing what any of these guards would have done, and also you have to reload before your whole team gets old. Ask the Patriots about that.
Nicks and Evans started as rookies. Lots of others across the league have done so, and will continue to. But you're just sure you know this won't be the year..... Sure.
