Bills about to sign Kolb

[RunKC]

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter 57s
Bills and former Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb finalizing a deal tonight that will give Buffalo one more starting-caliber QB.

Another top 10 team signing a veteran QB. Wonder what that could mean?

Reid has been known for getting qbs to play good and trade them for good draft picks. What happened after they were gone they sucked. Reid knows what he is doing.

Yes, and by a team that at least one of the posters in this thread said would certainly NOT take him.

Shit happens in sport every year that had never happened before. Chase Daniel being a #3 QB is hardly inconceivable, even if he is getting 3 or 5 million or whatever.

You've paid a guy $10 million or more to "learn". You have to extend him at that point, so you're committed to $26 million plus before he's even started a game in the NFL.

That sounds reeruned, not like a "bargain".

What did we commit to Jackson before he played a down?

Berry?

Geno will be a Chief. You can count on that..

90%?

So the top pick is going to earn $4 million over the life of the contract?

Kolb deal worth a “maximum” of $13 million

Sorry, Bills fans, but it’s a done deal.

Adam Schefter of ESPN previously reported that the Bills are finalizing a deal with quarterback Kevin Kolb. Schefter now reports that it’s a two-year contract, worth a “maximum” of $13 million.

The “maximum” surely will be reached only if Kolb becomes the starter and holds the job.

The real question is this: What’s the minimum?

Kolb’s camp currently has no reason to leak that. As usual, the truth will come out once the contract is filed and the official numbers surface.

You draft a Tackle in the third or fourth because after Albery we dont have Tackle depth.

It is irrelevant due to different a pay scale.

Did you miss the part when i said what if they cant lock Albert up? Are you really gonna Tag him at 11.5m in 2014? If Stephenson is your LT in 2014 i feel sorry for the QB.

Laugh all you want twitter boy, but yes, I believe he has the tools and attrbutes to be just that.

I also believe the same can be said for Matt Barkley.

I'd be happier than one of Hog Farmer's hogs when he goes to work if we drafted either one, and risked failure in the pursuit of excellence.

But I have zero expectation that will happen.

I could get behind that plan.

Geno and Barkley game is just like Alex Smith why do you have Alex so much?

No you sign Albert long term.

Dorsey did say after they franchised him that they hope to have a long term deal done before training camp starts.

90% is a little much, but in 2003, Palmer got a $10,000,000 signing bonus when the cap was $75,000,000. Last year Luck got a $14,000,000 bonus when the cap was $120,00,000.
