atljbo Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 J.P. Losman missed out on a $5 million escalator for 2008 by failing to play in 50 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps last season.Losman, due $650,000 in 2008, has requested a trade and is expected to be accomodated. The team that acquires Losman will likely look to sign him to an incentive laden deal. He should bring back a mid- to late-round pick.Source: Buffalo News Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Duke 6 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Why not take Henne in the 3rd or 4th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcons4life Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 For a 5th round pick and a 650k current contract it might not be that bad of a move.The guy has been hurt a few times but it sounds like he got a raw deal in Buffalo.Speculation was the owner Ralph Wilson had him benched so he wouldnt reach some expensive incentive marks, like playing in 50% of the snaps.Who will start for this team next year at QB? If we draft a Brohm or Ryan would the coach let him start out of the gate? Its been done but not all that often with great success.A Losman could lead the team next year and at least be a viable backup after that.If he could be had on the cheap its not that outrageous a move.

He looked better the last 2 games than Losman has ever looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcons4life Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Redman can start next year. He looked better the last 2 games than Losman has ever looked. And just how good did Redman look against Tampa? 0.0 QB rating.Do you think the Seattle team he played was the one who played yesterday?For a 5th round pick it might be a good safety net for this team. Im not advocating him as the answer but a small piece to a huge puzzle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Duke 6 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I know the bucs are waiting for redman to play.We will play the bucs alittle bit more than the seattle backups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
