Rock-A-Bye Beasley

Can’t just give them free 10 yards

McD has no problem doing it to the running backs. I actually agree with you, just wondering why no consistency

Josh shoulda ran left. Why throw it short of the sticks?

Why is McKenzie still in?!

I disagree on the cook TD. Now CMC is a disruption on the team?! Beane said the complete opposite. Someone quoted him earlier in the thread saying he has Kuechly DNA.

I’ll just keep repeating myself. He can be traded in the offseason when he will still be 26yo to replace some of what was given up at least. Or not, the Bills will hold all the cards

No one said getting CMC is a guarantee, either The logic is the same. Nothing is guaranteed. You have to take a chance sometimes. Clearly you don’t think mccaffrey increases our chances much to win a super bowl this year, while others disagree. .

If MCaffrey prevents us from signing Edmunds I’d be willing to give up additional picks lol

I’m being facetious. Not a fan of paying Edmunds.

Having Allen doesn’t guarantee anything either. Ohhh and think of how many delicious picks we could get for him

How about edmunds for mccaffrey and Corbett?

Show me the upgrades at guard that are available. I suggested McCaffrey and Corbett for a package of picks but fans here still didn’t want to part with their precious draft picks.

first of all, loosen up and take more risk. Second, you imply we can’t afford him after this but are conveniently leaving out the possibility of a restructure and/or a trade after this season to recoup draft capital. it’s very unlikely he’s a pure rental

The fans here who don’t want him regardless of compensation are absolutely insane. They’re not even worth arguing with. When you draft any player the best you can realistically hope for is always top 5 or top 10 at their position. CMC is already that and it’s a guarantee in a critical year. You don’t have to wait for him to develop and you don’t have to hope he does develop(Cook). We are still waiting on the players we drafted recently, as far back as 3 years ago (Epenesa), to fully develop. If you want to say giving up a draft pick for CMC is “mortgaging our future” you’re wrong for a couple reasons. (1) This team doesn’t have a ton of needs or roster spots. They are already losing day 3 players to waivers or PS poaching and have 8 picks in the next draft. It’s a certainty if they make all of those picks that some of them will be poached (or more past day 3 players). Even the 1-3 round picks will have a hard time being an upgrade to what they have. Also, the biggest areas of need are positions you generally don’t need to draft high IOL, S (2) Cap space. Some here are arguing his cap hit after this season is too high, while others don’t want to give up a draft pick for a “rental”. Both stances are foolish. As stated repeatedly in this thread CMC would have 3 non-guaranteed years of almost exactly $12mil/yr after this one. It’s the best possible situation for Buffalo. The chances of restructuring and lowering the cap hit are very high. Otherwise, cut bait for no penalty. But wait! There’s a third option where CMC is traded from Buffalo after the season to recoup at least some of the precious draft capital lost in the first place, again at no penalty.

Oh I love him, he’s great and not a “diva”. Excellent idea

You’re probably right. I just think it’s worth it for a 2nd. We just drafted a guy we hope can be some form of CMC for us in the late 2nd so the real thing for at least one SB run is worth that to me. Then you add in the ability to trade him again in the offseason.

Great, then flip them for draft picks after the season. Sure it won’t be a late first, but those players will have a lower cap hit. Think of it like trading down and getting help this year. Maybe you can get it done for much less compensation, I’m just saying I would be willing to part with the first since there is no future guaranteed money and they can be flipped to recover draft capital.

I’d rather not give up the first obviously but that’s what I think it would take. I can’t believe bills fans still don’t want to add depth everywhere after all these injuries and the dolphins game. People really love future draft picks around here.

McCaffrey and Corbett for our 1st. Hopefully both contracts can be restructured in a way where the players are affordable after this season, but if not, it’s an upgrade at guard and running back for a super bowl run this season. Then one or both players can be flipped in the off-season to recoup draft picks without cap penalty.

Singletary is on the bills. He gets 11.6 touches a game currently. You don’t think they’d increase the RB touches if they had CMC?

Singletary is averaging 11.6 touches per game this season, CMC would obviously get more, but to answer your question aside from the weird 9 touches part, yes

Short answer is yes

It's fine I don't have a stance either way in this case, but that's what the other poster was getting at

If it's tied and KC has a 4th and 7 from their own 30, they will punt rather than risk losing

chiefs were +190 before that drive
