    Kolb = Fitzpatrick.

    $13 million is the complete max if all incentives are reached. It's an incentive laden deal. Good deal for Buffalo.

    Kolb has more talent and ability than Fitzpatrick can dream of. Plus, he can actually throw deep balls.

    I would venture to say an O Line, Stevie J, and a great 1/2 punch in the back field

    I liked the idea of signing Kolb, but I'm pretty sure the connection with the Jets was simply the product of our beat writers' collective over-active imaginations clutching at straws on account of being starved of any real information.

    If we had wanted Kolb and he was prepared to play for what we were prepared to pay I'm sure he'd have been signed days ago.

    Hey, Bills Over Jets, what's your story? You from NY state? I never met a Bills fan in person. Tell me about how you became a fan. Also, I heard you guys getting a new stadium or something?

    so does this mean that the likelihood of smith falling to the jets is greater?

    i dont like kolb, i think he would have been too expensive with the anchor we already have at qb... but now i worry the jets may take a flier on smith who i have no confidence in.

    and puma i am confident that no matter what happens this will be rex ryans last year. i just dont see idzik keeping him around once woody lets him cut him after this year.

    You have 17.5 mil wrapped up in qb salary this year...how would you expect to sign Kolb or for that matter any other FA QB?

    So what, we have 22 million tied up in the three starting CBs too and are still 7 or 8 million under the cap..it's only money.

    First off it's "now" and not "know" and I what I was showing off is that you have no clue what the Jets might do if there is somebody they are interested in.

    i dont think its quite 17 million tied up, i believe its 17 million cap hit if cut before june 1. which wont happen. it will be 12 million if cut after june 1 and i believe 8 or 9 million if he is not cut.

    still, 12 to sanchez and 6.5 to kolb is a hell of alot tied up in one position.

    According to reports the Kolb deal is only $1 million guaranteed........with the rest being incentives and escalators. Thats actually a great deal for us.
