    I see NO WAY the Bills close the gap by that much, and I wouldnt pay him no freegin $11.5 million per year either.
    I'd rather see Walker play LT for $5 million per year and the Bills sign somebody who can rush the passer with the money they didn't pay Peters.

    Not to mention the picks they would get for Peters.

    But Hey, some people think we need a franchise Left Tackle to finish 7-9 3 years in a row. How Pitt and Arizona ever got to the Super Bowl without Jason Peters is still a mystery to me.

      I think Walker is paid almost 7 mill or 7 mill per year.

      It was a 5 year, 25 mill with a 10 mill signing bonus.

      It would come down to whether they amortized the SB over the length or not.

        well after today's News' article, confirming how far apart they are.. A trade may end up being in the works.

        I bet they get the deal done mid season and for 9-10

          According to Clumps page if I read it correctly Walker cost the Bills $3 million salary, $1 million in Amortized Bonuses, and $1,507,280 in Other Bonus.

          3+1+1.5 = $5.5

            My worries. He gave up close to the most sacks by a LT last year. People complain that if we get rid of Peters that Edwards will be picking himself up off the ground. Well, he did that plenty last year with Peters in there.

            Dont give me the holdout and Dockery etc. Walter Jones would hold out all camp then come in and dominate. But we give Peters a four month pass to get into game shape. Alot of his sacks were straight up getting his arse beat sacks.

            He also seems like he walks a fine line between caring and being dominate to a ho hum attitude that gets Trent hammered. Do you feel comfortable giving him so much money to be so hit and miss.

            I have no problem with them resigning him for the long term or getting a nice bounty for trading him. We would need at least two first for sure, and a possible pick next year based on achievements.

              I'm sorry, I know this is off topic but realdealryan has the best sig pic in history.
