YoloinOhio Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I think that would be a violation in the eyes of the NFL -- won't be able to say Bills until trade is approved and announced. The subtle difference in his Instagram is that he doesn't say anything about who he plays for...even in the Vine video last night he just says "BillsMafia" and laughs... oops, that's right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerball Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Britt McHenry @BrittMcHenry 5m5 minutes ago Coach in NFC East on Chip Kelly: "Can't handle strong personalities in the locker room." Like many, was shocked about McCoy trade. #eagles Chip Kelly, IMO, thinks he's the smartest guy in the room. He believes that "his" offense can and will win with mediocre talent. He also knows that if he fails he has pretty much any college gig waiting for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also knows that if he fails he has pretty much any college gig waiting for him. To be fair, he likely is often the smartest man in the room where he is most of the time. Unfortunately for him, there are a lot of rooms with a lot of smart people across the NFL who are smart in different ways. Whaley wasn't brilliant giving Shady a deal with lower $/year, but more overall and more guaranteed. He just saw a good player and made a reasonable option.

He's also a year older than shady. To his credit Murray is better than Shady at going North-South. But I agree with you that every bad thing that's supposedly wrong with the Shady trade is even more so with Murray: He's a year older, coming off a year when Dallas rode him half to death, has a worse injury history and will likely have competition to sign when Shady had GONE ON RECORD that he'd be willing to take a pay cut for the Eagles. Not just a restructure a cut. As someone mentioned in another thread it looks like Chip the GM is killing Chip the genius HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Figured this was a good thread to make my first post. I liked this trade for McCoy from the second a friend texted me the news. I only read the first 17 pages of this thread, so maybe this has been discussed: I think the success of Kiko (and to an extent Bradham) is a product of the D-line. It's easy to rack up tackles when you are clean because Marcell and Kyle are playing in front of you. For instance, Ray Lewis' effectiveness was extended by having Ngata soaking up blocks in front of him. Kiko was undersized to play in the middle and his contributions were going to be made by speed and agility . . . but he tore his ACL . . . again. This trade could end up being very heavily one-sided for the Bills, because we know what Shady can do. We traded Kiko to the one person - Chip Kelly - who may overvalue Kiko more than the collective TBD. I say well done Whaley. Another take: wasn't Kiko the extra pick the Bills swiped from the Rams when they traded up to pick Tavon Austin? So Whaley got EJ Manuel and Shady McCoy with that pick? Again, I say well done Whaley. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
