SWATeam Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would love it but don't think we are in position to outbid Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Hmmm. I'm skeptical of "league sources." And that "eyeing a trade" doesn't amount to: "Doug, would you be interested in trading for Sam Bradford?" "We're keeping all options open, at every position. We're always looking for ways to get better." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acantha Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would bet on two picks. Later one this year and maybe a 2nd or third next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 A 3rd rounder is fine. A 2nd and I could maybe talk myself into it. A 1st and it's idiotic. One could argue the inverse of this anecdote would be appropriate for St. Louis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would love it but don't think we are in position to outbid Cleveland. Simply having more resources doesn't mean they will outbid us. It also likely comes with the issue that Bradford as an expensive 1 year contract likely has to agree to a new deal before anyone agrees to pay a ransom meaning he has some degree of veto power. If him, I'd prefer buff to Cleveland by a long shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'm assuming the Bills would renegotiate his fat contract. I'm not sure Bradford can throw better than EJ, or stay healthier. But we certainly need to enter preseason with some combo better than EJ & Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJDK Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would be worried about who we would give up. Mainly because they would be available for more games than Bradford. Unless it's Goodwin then ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Weren't the reports a few days ago that were coming out of St. Louis that Snead, Fisher and Kroenke were happy with Bradford (injuries aside)? If it does happen I wouldn't mind as long as we aren't giving up another pick from this years draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also all fair- but I think it'd be surprising if we weren't actively looking at this option, even if a long shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would love it but don't think we are in position to outbid Cleveland. I wouldn't get into a bidding war for a QB until all of the Bills FA's are addressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 One could argue the inverse of this anecdote would be appropriate for St. Louis Then a 2nd it is. St. Louis is obviously ready to move on from him and he might be a cap casualty, giving up a 1st round pick for him drips of desperation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zevo Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 You can thank me for all of this....I was recently sent an email by a bills ticket rep asking me of my interest in seasons....I replied get me Bradford or cutler and we would talk....hahaha!

nucci Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Might cost a player along with a pick I wouldn't get into a bidding war for a QB until all of the Bills FA's are addressed I don't think it's a bidding war.....we make an offer...they counter...if it's too much we move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalostu2 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Doesn't throw better than EJ? Bradford has an elite arm and is worth whatever price at 27. We have $30+ M in cap room. Where are you going to spend that and not have 14M leftover for a QB? Please don't throw out a laundry list of the top free agents expecting them all to come to Buffalo. We are more realistic than that I would hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
