BuffaloBillsForever

Where did I say they are in worse shape than they were a few days ago?Where did I say Whaley is destroying this team? Where did I say Schopp is good at this job? Details are certainly NOT important to you. The reading comprehension around here...jeez.

You are constantly riding JTSP, sometimes your thoughts are just as egregious.

I think it would be a wise move to cut Fred let alone the starting back at any point in the year.

I'm sure you are as confident than what you were saying about Incognito There were some mentions of that on the Eagles board. We have a worse line than the Eagles too. I will predict a decline from his time in Philly but I don't think it will be as catastrophic as your scenerio.

I could see Fred getting cut.

My main complaint about Whaley is being myopic the last two years in his moves for a chance at a wildcard birth. The Bills are nowhere near a championship calibre team right now and have been making moves which don't look at the long term of the club for sustainability.

Nope.

Not in this instance.

Obvious trade bait? One, yes one poster and Mike Schopp prior proprosed trading Kiko and they got laughed at and told they were idiots.

That's not how you interpret it. You look at the trend on both graphs. A predictor. What it tells you are that RB's decline much faster with age than Wr's and the trend/decline starts at age 27 with both positions.

"Most decision-makers -- whether their background was in scouting, accounting or anything in between -- saw that trend as a bad investment. As with any business, they reserve premium contracts for projected growth in production, not a decline." (Seifert, 2014) This is what I would like to highlight in what might be one of the thought processes other than him not getting along with McCoy. It makes sense in both analytics as a predictor and salary in this instance.

Fred Jackson is certainly in decline but he has never had the workload ever in his career that McCoy has had.

Perhaps one reason why Kelly would part ways with what seems like a top 5 back. http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/123542/inside-slant-running-back-cliff-after-age-27 As a predictor basically we acquire McCoy right at the start of the downward sloping portion of the curve. Sorry if this has been posted before.

It's funny because that was his reaction to the general idea of trading Kiko which Schopp proposed.

It looks like Utah John deserves a spot between the farmers almanac and nostradamus.

Thanks. Same with many of the other players on the defense where they fit too. I have only seen one post so far (see trade kiko thread), that questioned Kiko's fit with the team.

Well done OP on the foresight of Alonso being expendable. 99% of fans didn't think so.

OMG there was a trade Kiko thread. This is pure gold. Of course EBall was against the idea. Of course the only individual with actual proper insight was bashed. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/173550-trade-kiko/

Because you can't find it either? Well on Oct 28 Mike Schopp discussed trading Kiko for an OL or TE (which makes more sense to me actually than a RB) and one of the biggest supporters of the Kiko trade now GreggyT "Schopp confuses controversial opinions (good for his business) with absurdly idiotic opinions (bad for his business and explains why he's in Buffalo rather than a larger radio market)." http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/172600-do-the-bills-make-a-move-at-the-deadline/page-2

Can you point me to where people have qustioned Kiko in this defense? I find that fascinating because I haven't come across that here. In fact only the opposite how dominate the defense would be with adding Kiko back in. If you can point that out to me that would be great.

Yet not a single person on here posted that so it's a rational that I have a hard time to take seriously. If people really believed that atleast one person would have had that axe to grind.

There were never any facts that were brought forth by any poster on here of those things prior to the trade.

Actually, I don't have blind love for Kiko at all. I was presently surprised with his play but I was never in the legend of kiko crowd. I realize his flaws.

I am baffled. If you really thought this can you point me to your and Wayne's posts on Kiko in Rex's scheme that he is il-fitted, underutilized and worth trading. Otherwise I find you are just conjuring stuff up to rationlize the trade. Actually can you point me to any poster on here where they wanted Kiko gone because he doesn't fit Rex's scheme?

We have a 360 in terms of scheme this year. In Kiko's rookie year which was a Rex Ryan scheme he played well. So your point doesn't prove anything as it doesn't translate properly.
