Proteus Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Of the two of us, I'm the only one providing substance. You're running around like a baby who **** himself. Shady is in his prime, has three years left on his deal, and Alonzo is coming off two bad knee injuries -- and without him last year the defense was still historically great. Yeah. Real troll. I am a passionate fan and I am opinionated. I love the Bills and I am not afraid to say when I think they are making mistakes. If you want to try to put that is the context that I "running around like a baby" then go ahead. That is about all you are good for anyways. If you disagree with my opinion that is fine I really don't care. What you do though is wait for me and maybe other people to say something negative about the Bills. Then you attack me and maybe other posters and not the content of my post. That is what is truly childish. You're pretty much a dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max997 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 This is a fail. RB's are a dime a dozen and are only good for 5 yrs. McCoy has maybe 2 good years left in him. And he's definitely not a "ground and pound" back. This makes no sense. I'm in shock right now. We needed a QB. If you are going to trade our best young player then get a QB!!! Top RBs are not a dime a dozen Kiko was not their best young player, that is clearly Dareus It's March 3, still time for plenty of other moves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
....lybob Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 If their contracts were the same then it could have been a pretty good deal but you're taking an 11million dollar cap hit in this deal so it's not Kiko for McCoy it's Kiko and a top flight FA for McCoy.

BuffaloBaumer Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 We all complained about a crappy offense. We just got one of the best backs in the league. Didn't cost much either you're the one that said you're done, not me So I can't show a little emotion after a Trade I hate. Family is a season ticket holder since 1960....I think I have the right to be pissed if I want. And if you think this trade would have been made if Kiko didn't want out, you're sorely mistaken.

Deranged Rhino Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I can see trading Alonso who was clearly expendable and coming off a 2nd ACL injury with no sure spot in Rex's scheme but for McCoy? I mean I like McCoy but he is not a ground and pound between the tackles back and his cap hit is huge. We don't know his cap numbers for sure. I'm seeing different numbers than the 12 mill people are freaking out about. Let's get all the information before we tar and feather the trade. So I can't show a little emotion after a Trade I hate.

Bills Fan of St Augustine Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) I really hope we can resign Hughes now.... Initially, I was really shocked and my visceral reaction was to question the trade because I absolutely loved Kiko as a BB. I really wanted to see our stellar D with him on the field. Moving to a 3-4 would argue we need to have talent at LB now more than ever. That said, getting McCoy is a huge upgrade over the RBs we have on the roster, Spiller included. It brings a quality top end talent to a position of relative weakness. We give up a lot to get a lot. I like it more and more, but I am really disappointed and saddened to lose Kiko.

NoSaint Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 From Sal M's Twitter: "Well, this would qualify as one hell of an interesting trade for the #Bills. McCoy is great, and Kiko was a bit overrated I thought" "After Kiko's first 5-6 games his rookie season, he really wasn't all that much of a difference maker. And #Bills didn't miss him last year" Seems to have the same opinion as a few fans here. I haven't processed yet - I loved me some Kiko, but Shady is a beast... Rb just seems so easy to find and McCoy has so many miles on him..... So that worries me. But if you think you are selling kiko way above his true value it's not unreasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had more than anger to back up your position on why this is a bad deal (you haven't said anything yet of substance regarding why you feel this way) then I wouldn't be bringing it up. Instead, I've offered multiple reasons why this is a good deal for the Bills and all you respond with is that I'm a troll. I'm not a troll.

Wood, Glenn, Henderson, Incognito &.... someone step up @ RG... and I think we'll have a big bruising physical (huge) line. A minority of one but Alonso was my favorite player but this trade makes the OL better. We just better have 6-8 competent LB's next year !

hondo in seattle Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Surprising trade, for sure. But I don't get the anger. We had a great D last year without Kiko but an abysmal O. We're not likely to pass the ball very effectively this year so it's imperative we build up the ability to run the ball. Fred's getting old and CJ is a free agent with an indifferent record. While I'll miss Kiko, this trade makes loads of sense - at least for Buffalo. I don't get the "backs are a dime a dozen" argument. Backs are like any other position - there are good ones and bad ones and ones in-between. The good ones will help you win. Lynch, for example, was a big part of Seattle's success these past two years. Most other backs would not have propelled their offense the same way. McCoy is an elite back and he'll add more to our WIN column than Kiko would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) if we're going to trade Kiko how about a real position of need like Guard or TE?

maddenboy Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 RBs r a dime a dozen, why? Maybe it was Polian who once said (paraphrasing) "If you are going to draft a RB high [or trade, i guess], he'd better be special, and a 3-down player." After I hid the sharp objects from myself the past 15 mins, I'm starting to see it though. My heart is breaking, yes. But which player would help us more to WIN THE SUPERBOWL THIS YEAR? Because if that is not the singular goal, then just quit. To hell with "getting better." I think, on balance, its right. But my heart is breaking.
