muck Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Not bad for the kid who shouldn't have been picked in front of Reggie Bush... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Looks like the Bears are shifting gears and going after Jeremy Mincey...not a bad fallback DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bills are upping their game on the D side of the franchise so I bet they end up with him. Granted, Chicago has done some miracle work over the last few years i.e. Peppers/Cutler and a few other interesting aquisitions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hearing Mario is going to visit at least one other team, hoping it's the Seachickens. Highly unlikely after the Seahawks re-signed Red Bryant. Oh well. Last year's free agency period was fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 and Kelsay is serviceable too Very true, I was talking about the guys that are elite, or extremely good. I'd love to see him end up in Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 6 years. 100 million. 50 mil guaranteed. http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/nfl/229948/bills-land-super-mario-for-6-years-$100m Per Rotoworld: Bills signed DE/OLB Mario Williams to a six-year, $100 million contract. The first ever $100 million contract for a defensive player includes $50 million guaranteed. The deal dwarves the then record six-year, $84 million pact signed by Bears RE Julius Peppers in March 2010. Peppers' deal included $42 million guaranteed. From a football perspective, the Bills provide Williams a chance to move back to his natural position of defensive end as they switch from a 3-4 to 4-3 defensive front. The No. 1 overall pick of the 2006 draft has notched 53.5 sacks in 82 career games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Hey Keg, does this give Brooks Reed a full time spot in Houston? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice1 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Nice for the Bills and nice for IDP owners as Super Mario moves right back into the elite tier of DEs No kidding, I just picked up and F-Tagged Avril in my league and have offered a 2nd this year and a 1st next year for Williams now that he is going back to DE. I doubt I get him but he should be great given the quality of the DT's in Buffalo. This was an impressive signing for the Bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditkaless Wonders Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 First they overpaid their Q.B., then they overpaid their immature W.R., now they have overpaid Williams. Williams is a great talent but you cannot win in this league by overpaying one player, more less three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just offer Jermaine Greshem and a 5th rounder...that will get you Mario every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
