$10mil? Just play the game man, you only got a couple years left of career anyways, if that.

Ah hah, ok that makes sense. So maybe if he proves invaluable, we might try to move things around to keep him, but if not, away he goes.

If he performs, why would the Bills void the contract? I'm confused why it's considered a one year contract, are they expecting him to suck?

I was just about to ask. I'm waiting for in depth analysis of every breath he takes, and how it shows he's the worst QB in the history of the NFL.

The AFC (B)East is going to be intense this year.

I'll expand on this idea that the Eagles signing Murray counts as part of this trade. That logic says all offseason signings count towards this trade. Here's the breakdown on acquisitions of note + Alonso/McCoy trade: Eagles: LB Kiko Alonso CB Byron Maxwell WR Miles Austin LB Brad Jones QB Tim Tebow RB Ryan Mathews RB DeMarco Murray Bills: RB Lesean McCoy OG Richie Incognito WR Percy Harvin FB Jerome Felton TE Charles Clay QB Tyrod Taylor DL Alex Carrington FB John Connor I think we did ok in this "trade", personally

FTFY Counting signings separate from the trade as part of the trade is kinda silly. Otherwise we should say that we picked up Harvin, Felton, and Clay in the trade as well. Why would he come here? He passed on multiple offers to sign with the Eagles. Do you think he would have come here? Do you think Whaley would have signed him since we were still showing interest in CJ at the time? IMO, it's safer to give up a guy we arguably didn't miss last year*, to guarantee we land a stud RB, than it is to play the guessing game of free agency. Let's say we float an offer to Murray and he passes it up, and CJ still goes to NO. Where do we stand at that point? * - Not saying Kiko sucks, just that we survived and succeeded without him last year. He's a good player, just we ended up being ok without said good player.

I'm a fan of the trade, and I think it's fair to take money into consideration. Two cheap players that are 90% as productive as two good players, plus leaves room for other productive players, is a big advantage. That being said, I think McCoy is the safer bet vs CJ. And Kiko, while good, isn't as big of an impact. Plus we seem to be ok on the cap front.

I wonder what the reaction would be here, if it came out that we were offered McCoy for Kiko and declined it.

Seems like both teams got something out of the deal, directly and indirectly, so I'm not sure why both aren't winners.

On Reddit, there's a long thread asking if the Bills are overrated. http://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/373jdq/are_the_buffalo_bills_being_overrated_in_rnfl/

I know I'm gonna check in here for updates, but I wish I wouldn't... you know it's gonna be pure dramatic over reaction to every bad thing, especially by EJ.

Over. Just because so many are taking under.

This is going to go to some court somewhere, isn't it?

Glad to hear. As far as the Pats fans, I don't get what their problem is... they have 4 rings, enjoy success.

Figured it'd be fun to pit these two against each other... being that they're generally the opposite ends of each party ('socialist' vs 'libertarian'). Who would you vote for and why?

Good to hear.

No possibility of parole, might as well go all in.

Can't imagine any of them will be available to us. It's really dumb to get rid of a franchise QB without another one in the waiting.

It sucks, but we're deep at the line, and have three other pro bowl talents lining up, so we "should" be ok, hopefully. I don't know much about the Colts other than Luck, and Luck hasn't lived up to "the next best thing" status for me. Has a hell of a lot of talent, but also seems to make a lot of mistakes.

Fun video haha

That all being said, I think it's kinda dumb for them to not have a competition.

This is why I have you on ignore (and I don't know what compelled me to view this response). You just put a whole lot of words in my mouth. It's not the responsibility of the company, its the responsibility of the government to regulate in ways that protect it's citizens, hence why there is a minimum wage in the first place.

Geno has had some great games, so the potential is there, he just needs to cut down on stupid decisions. Whether that will happen or not, who knows. It'll be interesting to see him work under Chan, at the very least. I don't know why everyone expects every QB to be great so early in their careers... he's young, who knows what the future holds.
