The Facts: The Bills do not plan to retain Taylor at his current contract, according to sources, as they continue to meet with agents for free agent quarterbacks and explore other options. And while the Bills have proposals at a lesser salary on the table, no one I've talked to here at the combine -- general manager, cap guy or agent -- can figure any reason why Taylor should accept anything from the Bills at this point. Especially with him being coveted as a free agent. League sources said the Browns have significant interest in Taylor as a free agent.
Diehards Line:
So wrote CBSSports.com's Jason La Canfora adding to the mountain of speculation about Taylor's future in Buffalo. There has also been ample reporting connecting Taylor to Cleveland. The QB has strong ties to some on the Browns staff already and if/when he hits the open market La Canfora would be shocked if the Browns don’t make a real push for him. La Canfora added: "Many in the league believe that’s where he will end up -- he’s young and athletic and protects the football and has upside. That would allow the Browns to take the two best players available with their two first-round picks -- beginning with Myles Garrett first overall." The Browns also continue to try to push to retain pending free agent receiver Terrelle Pryor to have some weapons for the new QB. ... Stay tuned. The Bills decision on Taylor has a March 11 deadline.
