Pre-Season 2235
(Orchard Park, NY) - The Buffalo Bills announced they have slapped OL Bryan Painter with the FP5 tag, ensuring the front office won't beat themselves over the head again during next year's free agency period. 'I made a mistake last year in not using the tag on OL McCall, and it came back to bite us in Free Agency. That's not going to happen again' said GM Mark Ricotta. 'Don't get me wrong, Bryan is an outstanding OL, and he's proven he's worth the money, but boy do I wish I still had McCall'.
When asked how he thought Painter would react to the announcement of his FP signing being focused on a recently departed OL, Ricotta had this to say 'Do these guys have feelings? Tell Painter my office walls need a new coat.'
