(Admitted hot head fan/blogger Joe Pinzone AKA “JoeFromNYC” has a blueprint to solve the Buffalo Bills woes. Many won’t agree with his views–and we probably won’t either. But they’re still interesting enough to publish. This is the fifth in a series of moves he would like to see the Bills make to return to respectability)
Quarterback
I’ve already addressed this in my previous posts. Honestly though, I’m having second thoughts about the Kevin Kolb trade. It has absolutely nothing to do with whether I think he can play or not. It has to do with his contract. Yes, he only has one year left on his current deal (It could be two if a new CBA isn’t reached). However, a trade could result in me having to give Kolb a deal similar to what Matt Schaub got when he was traded to the Texans. We are talking 6-years for 48 million dollars.

(We’re running a series profiling players that could fit into the Buffalo Bills’ plans leading up to the start of free agency on March 5. Today we look at Miami Dolphins quarterback Chad Pennington)
Yeah, I know. Chad Pennington is not a name most Buffalo Bills fans are not fond of hearing when it comes to potential starting quarterbacks in 2010. Everyone craves Donovan McNabb, a few would like to see Michael Vick come to Orchard Park and many would be happy to hear the name Sam Bradford or Jimmy Clausen called out with the ninth overall pick on draft day.
Free Agent Files: Chad Pennington – continue reading…
I spoke to a source Saturday that told me although most teams would consider him a backup at this point of his career, the Buffalo Bills plan on taking a long look at soon-to-be free agent Chad Pennington as a short-term starter for the 2010 season.
“The Bills are interested in taking a look at him for sure,” the source said. “If he passes all the physical tests the plan could be to bring him in since he knows the division so well, and serve as a mentor to a rookie draft pick.”
Pennington would like the opportunity to start but his options appear severely limited. He’d like to stay in Miami to back up Chad Henne and even said on the record of the New York Daily News he’d consider coming back to the New York Jets to backup Mark Sanchez. But obviously if the Bills gave him a chance to start he’d have a huge interest in staying in the AFC East, which is where he’s spent his entire 10-year career.
Source: Pennington will be strongly considered – continue reading…
