Plausible X/#1 receiver trade candidates — are there any?
Kirby Jackson replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
That’s what happened with Amari Cooper last year. That’s why their passing and scoring was so much better in the games with him than without him… -

Fair and said better. You absolutely cannot count on him. He flashes but he disappears a lot more often. We don’t need that. -

I think that this place is overreacting. Everything is fine. R-E-L-A-X -

Lol, I don’t think Coleman is any good. If the Bills acquired Olave AND Waddle (obviously not happening) then Coleman would be their 5th WR. Palmer is better IMO. He may appeal to New Orleans and his skill set is duplicated by Shakir in many ways. -

They better get moving!! Allbright is saying Miami wants a 3rd for Waddle. I’d offer: a 2nd, a depth OL (Alec Anderson) and a 2027 5th. I’d then turn around and trade Coleman and a 3rd for Olave. -

Lol, that’s kind of why I though Beane might be interested. 🤣🤣 Bourne has gone nuts with McCorkle at QB. They probably owe him a shot to do the same with Purdy (if he comes back and holds off McCorkle). Jennings is also a FA after this year I think. They are the one team that seems to have good depth in a bunch of areas. I could see them trying to get a pick above what they would potentially get as a comp pick. -

I didn’t see that last night (fell asleep at 1/2) but think I’ve seen it before. I’m with you that it is 100% crazy. If the officials were wrong, and you were right, regardless of if it resulted in a 1st down or TD or whatever, you shouldn’t relinquish a TO. Frustrating -

We’ve legitimately seen people argue on here that “everybody eats” is a better idea. “Yeah but if you have a guy that demands targets it takes away from other people.” Imagine being like, “naw, forget about adding (any name mentioned) what is that going to do to Tyrell Shavers targets?!?” 🤣🤣 You can find people making that argument all over the internet. Are they completely brainwashed or really, really stupid? There is no alternative. Imagine being like, “but if we have a good receiver that will mean less balls will be thrown to the bad receivers.” 🤣 That feels like a move they’d make. My guess is it is 1 DB and 1 WR. If I had to guess I would say Woolen and Jauan Jennings (just a feeling on that one). -
Welp, so much for my guy:
-
This might be a controversial take (but it shouldn’t be). If Josh Allen played at the exact same level that Jim Kelly did for his career (top 5ish QB) this Bills team would have no chance. They don’t have enough talent around him. He can’t be “one of the best players in a game.” If he isn’t, “the best player on the field” they aren’t a contender.
-
It is like that are you a liar or incompetent? Did he really think that they were okay at WR? If he did, I’m deeply concerned. 85% of this message board recognized the problem and the GM didn’t?!? If he knew they were bad and just shouted down the morning show guys without even believing what he was saying, that too is concerning. Is the ego that fragile? Are you that insecure that you can’t handle mild criticism? Either way, when he pushed his chips in that day, he opened himself up to all of the criticism coming his way now for the trash WR room.
-
Oh I know. The fact that anybody had to say that out loud is hilarious to me. The fact that the Bills leadership literally tried to build the roster exactly the opposite is crazy. They were like “throw everything at defense and Josh will make everyone fine.” It was insanity at the time and it’s insanity in hindsight. Beane really missed.

Lol, without piling on Tre being an absolute liability hasn’t helped either. They should change his number from 27 to 🎯 -

Kirby Jackson replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
We agree. It’s more for me “adding a pretty good player that’s a less than ideal fit is better than status quo.” I don’t think he makes them worse. He isn’t near the top of the list but he does make them better. I wouldn’t even be opposed to adding 2 guys like Meyers and Shaheed. You don’t solve the number 1 receiver issue but you get a better version of everybody eats. -

Tucker is an interesting, and potentially inexpensive option. -

Kirby Jackson replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don’t disagree that he primarily wins in the short and intermediate. He’s also been a very good contested catch guy. A redundant skill set that works is an upgrade from a different skill set that is ineffective. I’d rather have Shakir/Kincaid/Meyers working the short and intermediate than throwing 50/50 balls to Coleman. Again, he isn’t the perfect fit but he is a better player than what they have and shouldn’t be too expensive (I wouldn’t think). Status quo is a worse option than every single guy listed. When you have, unquestionably, a bottom 3 WR room, and maybe the worst, what’s the downside? There is no scenario where inserting Meyers in place of Coleman/Samuel/Moore makes you worse. Those guys just aren’t good or in Samuel’s case, healthy ever. I think that we all agree with that. -

To be clear, Meyers is not the 1st choice (or 2nd). If he is he guy that “they can get” though, he’s 100% an upgrade. No one is advocating for him. If your options are Meyers or status quo, it’s Meyer’s WITHOUT QUESTION. The last 3 years he’s averaging like 75 catches, 900 plus yards and 6 TDs playing with bad QBs. He would instantly be he best WR in the room. Again, he isn’t a perfect fit but they are better with him than standing pat. The skill he adds, is the ability to get open. -

Meyers has played almost 50/50 (50.9/48.6 according to Pro Football Focus) in his career slot vs. boundary. The other random snaps were at TE or in the backfield. The thought that he can ONLY be a slot is wrong. -

Kirby Jackson replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
I keep going back to, “does adding Meyers and subtracting Samuel/Coleman/Moore” make you better or worse? That’s a rhetorical question. Adding the best receiver on your roster makes you better. Is he ideal? No. Is he absolutely an upgrade? Yes. The Bills have backed themselves into a corner where they have to get better even if it isn’t perfect. -

I’m assuming that Samuel or another receiver goes out in the deal (maybe even Coleman if they are fed up with him). It should just be a roster “swap out” with everyone getting bumped down a spot. It’s not perfect and I 100% agree it’s a bad situation. It doesn’t “solve” the problem but it does improve the situation (at least some).
