BillnutinHouston Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Lynch has proven himself to be a complete dud after coming off his suspension. Clearly has physical skills yet lacks one or more of the following: vision, burst, decisionmaking, ability to get onto the hips of his offensive linemen. Freddie is clearly superior at getting more out of every play. Yet you need a decent 2nd back. Do you try to bait another team into giving up something decent in return for his "promise", or just resign yourself to having him as your #2 back until his next suspension? Can he be coached up for next year? Curious what ya'll think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Number 76 Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Agreed. Bait. They don't need someone with Lynch's pedigree to be a no. 2 back. Sell the pedigree; someone will buy. Get a 2d round or 3d round pick out of it and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_red Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 The last few games he had big time runs. Today he ran like 4 times and didn't do anything cuz right when he got it 2 guys were on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Keep him. He hasn't had a particularly good year, but he's only 23, has no serious injury history and has been pretty productive in previous years. If you trade him, you'll just have to draft someone else fairly high in order to replace him and probably won't receive much net value at all when all is said and done.

zow2 Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Nothing against Lynch's ability, but there's about 50 other RB's in the NFL with his same ability or better. He does nothing to distinguish himself other than his dancing around on sweeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I trade him Good point. Then when Fred gets hurt next year or we waste a high round pick on a second RB we can complain about trading Marshawn. And round and round we go.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbuk3 Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Agreed. Bait. They don't need someone with Lynch's pedigree to be a no. 2 back. Sell the pedigree; someone will buy. Get a 2d round or 3d round pick out of it and move on. Would help if they had an O-line to block. The guy is a beast. Even OJ sucked until Saban came in and built an O-line for him.

Jackson is doing much better than lynch behind the same line. Bottom line Lynch is over hyped, over rated and we can do without him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Agreed. Bait. They don't need someone with Lynch's pedigree to be a no. 2 back. Sell the pedigree; someone will buy. Get a 2d round or 3d round pick out of it and move on. TRY to trade him ,yes. But you're kidding yourself about a 2nd or 3rd for this clown. If there are ANY takers. Why trade a pick if the Bills may just cut him anyway? ML brings very little to the table, and is a below average back right now. We need two backs, but you may as well draft a mid round guy for that role. Cut Lynch if a draft choice isn't obtainable, but i think it's more like a 4th or 5th at this point.

Get a 2d round or 3d round pick out of it and move on. we'd be lucky to get a 5th for him. how many teams are there in the nfl whose rb position would be upgraded by lynch that don't already have young rb's on the roster they already like? seattle maybe?

Dan Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 If Lynch is traded, who's the 2nd RB next year? Or do we draft another RB with the pick we get for Lynch? Yeah, this makes so much sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VADC Bills Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Have him lose 15 lbs and bring him back next season. I believe he is out shape this season trying to carry more weight. No one on this team is above trading...I just don't think we have any one that will get us above a 4th round pick. Lynch, Poz, Parrish, Edwards, Whitner, Kelsey...I don't think these guys would get anything better. Maybe if you package them. I would draft a rb in the mid rounds because we need more depth.
