FluffHead Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 @RapSheet: While #Redskins get the 1st visit with DeSean Jackson & #Raiders do research, don’t rule out #Bills as a serious suitor. They are in contact @RapSheet: Buffalo does its work quietly, and that’s how research & recruitment of DeSean Jackson is happening. Imagine DeSean + CJ Spiller.

Nuncha Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Don't know why they are interested - I'd rather see them draft a WR with size.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this rules out a WR with size early in the draft. They inevitably cut Stevie or Graham if Jackson is signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta link for these cut Stevie rumors ? I'm not sure why you keep saying he's getting cut. Is he having some groin issues you are privy to ? Stevie /desean /woods is not a recipe for disaster IMO.

If Jackson is signed our depth chart likely goes Desean Stevie Woods Goodwin Easley Then graham fighting for a spot with all the prospects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 If Jackson is signed our depth chart likely goes Desean Stevie Woods Goodwin Easley Then graham fighting for a spot with all the prospects Add Ebron at #9 and dare I say we would have one of the best receiving cores in the entire league!

YoloinOhio Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I don't think this rules out a WR with size early in the draft. They inevitably cut Stevie or Graham if Jackson is signed. I don't know why they need to cut SJ. If they sign Jackson, it will likely be for a 1-year deal and they can afford both players. SJ is 6'2, he isn't a "small, speedy" WR like Jackson. If anything it just puts some pressure on SJ to perform this year and gives the Bills a great offensive weapon and we don't need to worry about playing Graham if someone gets hurt, Plus if Jackson is the #1 WR, that makes SJ more effective in my mind as the #2. Woods in the slot, Goodwin as a deep threat. Goodwin a nice weapon but he had injury issues, can't depend on him being healthy really all season. I would like the signing and if they added Evans or Ebron it would be awesome Again, because it would be a 1 year deal they may lose him to FA next year anyway if he has a monster year and his price tag jumps so no need to cut SJ. But if he helps us get to the playoffs? Why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills have said they are focused on beating NE. NE added Revis but the rest of their D is not spectacular,If they need to cover Spiller, DeSean, Stevie, Woods, Goodwin AND Ebron? Ummmm...

RCOHEN13 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 that is a pretty disturbing article. I bet the Eagles now suspect Jackson is actually involved in criminal activity, and the fact no team would trade for him is interesting. No thanks to him. no way NE touches him after the Hernandez fiasco they had. Very good point... Jets or other hand would be perfect fit for him with Decker or other side and neither being a top flight #1 but together they would form a top notch 1-2 punch. Sometimes better to have 2 guys as lower tier 1's and very diff style of play, gives D's nightmares on who to double. With way Jets have approached off season, they need to make a splash and this would be it. And if any team doesnt mind a circus, its them... Regardless of off field issues, i'd love him on our team. Even though he's smaller, he's a polished and productive version of what we envioned Goodwin could be (if he hits his potential and stays healthy). With him and Stevie, along with Woods and them Goodwin in 4 WR sets, that would be 1 hell of a WR corp with tons of versatility. If not, i REALLY hope we address in the 1st round, getting EJ another toy out there... Either Ebron, Wadkins (whom i doubt will fall to #9) or Evans who is the real deal. After Watkins, he is def. the clear #2 and i would take Ebron over rest of field (TE's or WR's) as i could see him being a terrfic receivin threat, and instead of going a RB, 3 WR and a TE, we could go with RB, 2 WR and 2 TE (Embton and chandler) especially in 3rd and mediums which would give us 2 big guys at TE along with SJ13 and Woods on outside, or can even split Ebron out wide, while putting Chandler on LOS and SJ13 is slot. Getting a talent like Evans, Ebron or Desean via FA, would be a HUGE boost for our O. I just really hope he goes anywhere but AFC east, namely Jets cuz as poster previously posted, i think its HIGHLY unlikely Pats would take shot with Desean after the Hernandez situation.

They inevitably cut Stevie or Graham if Jackson is signed. stevie Johnson has 8.5 mil in dead money if cut. that's not happening. they would have to trade him if they wanted to move him. seeing as stevie is one of the few recievers with success againt revis, i'm not sure getting rid of him is wise.

NoSaint Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Not a rumor, just My 2 cents. Unlike the Bills to tie up so much in one position. Hope I'm wrong For a position group with 6 guys, we have 1 on average vet pay and 5 rookie deals (non of which are even first rounders). Our TEs are likely among the lowest paid group in the league. And Our qb group is likewise among the cheapest in the league. Our passing game could easily justify a little spending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty interesting take and one that hasn't been mentioned. It kind of goes back o to that discussion about % of the cap to allocate to each position. You are taking it a step further by dividing it into parts of the game. Good thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Gangs, sets, all that. Come on people. He is from Oakland, just like Chicago, New York, New Orleans... EVEN BUFFALO, where it just isnt safe to walk the streets alone. You never know who you might run into. He was probably protected buy this "set" growing up. Also in Compton, LA, Oakland, you are already affiliated based on where you live. There is nothing much more to it than you representing you old street. The name brought up in murders point is kind of a flag. And also if he is a diva, those are reasons not to want him. I guess my point is dont be afraid of something you dont understand. And Crips and bloods are not the only ones on the street. Sur13 or something like that, and a bunch of Hispanic and Asian gangs are out there. And in small communities there are many small gangs - in this area we have TRG, aka the little rascals. Gangs are quite prominent when you live in a lower income/poverty stricken area. MS13 they are on the West side. Edited March 30, 2014 by Agent 91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
