I'm really not sure what to think about this trade. Productive RBs are not that difficult to find, McCoys cap hit seems pretty high for a RB, there are others coming available in FA such as DeMarco Murray, DeAngelo Williams, Chris Johnson, Peyton Hillis and soon apparently Steven Jackson that would not have cost Alonso. On the other hand, McCoy is still a good RB even if he is starting to decline, and LBs in general aren't that hard to find either. Ultimately I think both teams got what they needed short term. But I suspect long term Philly made out better.
Chris Johnson, Peyton Hillis and an old Stephen Jackson are not productive rb's... Murray theoritically wasn't coming to Buffalo.. DeAngelo could be either/or and I wouldn't have complained if the Bills had signed him.

We have Kromer.
No way Cutler comes here
CBF
I'm not disagreeing with this point... but in my mind Kromer being the OL coach and not OC or QB coach would lessen the automatic thought that Cutler wouldn't come here just because of Kromer.
-
This day has been so amusing to me... They decided to have a meeting with literally the only FA QB that is allowed to visit and people are losing their minds
-
Pro Football Talk reports Peyton Manning is expected to make a decision on his future next week.

I do like Hughes as mostly everyone does.. but this is the epitome of a no brainer in my mind
-
You can cross Cutler off of the list with the Kromer hire IMO.
My only thought was since Kromer is the OL coach, would that really deter Cutler from wanting to come here as a FA if they cut him or in a trade?.. If Kromer were the OC or QB coach, I could understand it.

I remember when this was discussed when he left the Colts and when the Bills were mentioned in the pecking order the response in the article was... "LOL"
things are trending up!

I can see a strong attempt for Julius Thomas
-
You can just trade their stats if Watkins had eli in my opinion just to keep the debate simple... and then we would have those saying... "I cant believe whaley wouldn't have traded this years 19th pick for Watkins.. hes AMAZING"

It threw me for a loop much like learning the truth about Santa Claus... will take a few days to digest

Maybe Gus Malzhan lives in Lawrence during the offseason!

Fred Jackson stiff arm run down to the Bears 1 yard line in OT... Bills bar in Boston went bananas
-
If I recall correctly the game could be flexed to the 4 or 430 times slot due to the Pats/Broncos tiebreaker for the #1 seed scenario (like last year.) I'm not sure if they have a hierarchy of reasons to flex or not. They don't want the Pats winning at 1 and having Denver left with nothing to play for at 4pm vs Oakland... This is assuming NE beats the Jets and Den beats Cincy of course
-
With respect to everyone I am sick and tired of hearing about these week 17 (maybe the pats will rest their guys) scenario.. Yes they will have the division likely wrapped up but they more than likely will not have the #1 seed locked up.. I'm sure they'd prefer to host Manning and the Broncos than to travel back out there for the AFC title game..
If we make the playoffs by winning out, make no mistake about it.. It will be against fully functioning Patriots squad.
GO BILLS

Like it per usual Bill. It's been tough but glad to know all you guys are there every day of the year. It will turn around and no one will deserve it more than us. That keeps me going each September.
Go bills!!!!!

I long for a day when we don't talk about Mel kipper or any of those dope shows on this board for their draft grades

I don't understand the reasoning that if EJ plays well it is a good trade and if he doesn't it may not be. Yes, we lose our #1 next year but almost every high first round QB gets three years to prove if they are the man or not.
We likely aren't taking a QB high in the first round next year even if EJ tanks. There are a couple at the top but chances are, with this defense and this offense, it will not at all be an obvious choice whether he is "very" good or not.
But the bigger and more important point is, it's all about Sammy, not EJ. We have him for five and maybe six years. If he is a star player, and only a star player, it will be a good trade.
Stars are tough to find. If, after three years or four, regardless of whether EJ is our guy, Watkins is a stud/star, it will be a good trade. A championship team, in any year, in any sport, needs a couple stars at any position, and several very good players at various positions.
But to me, the essential element is, it's easier to find two very good players than it is to find one star player. I would trade two very good players for a star or stud any day. The Bills have one star now and that is Mario. Watkins is really a stud talent.

Is there any scenario where it would both be possible/advantageous and fans would root for a trade down that gets us a second 2015 first rounder?
I'm personally all for staying at 9, a slight trade up or a slight slight trade down depending on board. Personally wouldn't want to trade down to 23 for example.
-
That is a very good point... But how many times do they need to say big WR before we can see through these potential smokescreens... Not that Stevie is on Byrds level.. but if we take ODB at 9 and trade/cut stevie as has been written... its the same as just taking ha-ha at 9.... spinning our wheels even if ppl believe ODB is better than Stevie.. just my thoughts...
Very excited for tonight... Go Bills!!

Is it me or is this an exact replica of Tavon Austin rumors last year on Draft morning/afternoon
-
Trade up for Watkins/Evans without losing #1 in 2015 if at all possible
if we stay at 9.. Ebron barring an unexpected fall by someone else
Bills to go in little-talked-about direction at QB?
