Buffalo Bills and Sabres trades

by Steve

One definite trade the other a juicy rumor that may or may not be true. The first, the Buffalo Bills traded camp hold out Darwin Walker to the Chicago Bears for a 5th round draft pick. If the Bills could not sign Darwin by August 5th he would have been sent back to Philly for a 6th round draft pick. Of course, Walker was received in the Takeo Spikes/Kelly Holcomb trade that was a cash dump clearly from the beginning. This leaves the Bills with Tiny Tim Anderson and Jason Jefferson as the 4th and 5th linemen on the Bills roster. yeeeeesssshhh. But uh STF if you wanted to keep Spikes, he was getting an exorbitant amount of money and sucks.

Now onto the Buffalo Sabrse, where someone on a message board heard from his mailman's neighbor's exwife er I mean banter on Serius Satellite Radio that the Sabres are in talks with the San Jose Sharks to trade Dan Paille Jaro Spasuck and 2 first round picks for Patrick Marleau, one time Sabre Mike Grier and a 3rd round pick. Also in the mix would be a new contract for Marleau who is up after this season. The new contract allegedly would be for 3 more years and $19 mil.

This trade would cure a few ills for Sabres fans one bring leadership, grit and dump an over paid bum in Spacek. Also some good will towards the fans showing they are willing to bust moves. More as it becomes available.
