ESPN AFC East blogger Tim Graham recently saw the Bills up close at Orchard Park, N.Y., and he blogged about Lynch's plight Thursday. He noted the positives about the running back -- Lynch's age, production, salary and, really, his current attitude -- and the fact the team hasn't been offered enough to part with him, at least not yet. Rookie C.J. Spiller and fourth-year back Fred Jackson could probably handle things just fine without Lynch this season, a fact fantasy owners clearly have noticed … but I think Lynch is a nice bargain. Plus, he has the right frame of mind: "I'm here and I'm going to be here," he said recently. "I'm ready to play regardless of whether I'm unhappy or not. … We're all going to ball."
To see Eric's take on Marshawn Lynch and the Bills' running back situation, you must be an ESPN Insider.
