YoloinOhio Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 yeah it`s rumored that he is soft .along with the bad kneesi would trade for him because he's better than what we have.

strive_for_five_guy Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Could the Bills have done this. Next yrs 1 ? I heard Kelly was pissed we leaked the Shady deal early. That was my first thought, since Kelly didn't say it was a first round pick in this year's draft. Prob trying to create a market for Bradford to collect a second first round pick this year, then trade those two picks to get up high enough to get Mariota. He says he doesn't want Mariota but that's all a cover IMO. Edited March 12, 2015 by strive_for_five_guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1billsfan Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Could the Bills have done this. Next yrs 1 ? I heard Kelly was pissed we leaked the Shady deal early. Â Bradford is on the last year of the last insanely high rookie contract so it would have made no sense for the Bills to give up next years 1st round pick on a player in his last contract year who has shown very little other than the ability to get hurt easily. Â I think the Bills will have better QB options next year like trading for possibly Kaepernick, Rothlesberger, E. Manning or Brees. Odds are that one of these teams will probably be ready to move on with a rookie QB and would take Bills 2016 high draft picks and use them to position themselves to draft one. Of course there's always the long shot scenario that EJ Manuel is playing like a very good QB down the stretch and into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webster Guy Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Yeah right Chip. For your underachieving immobile qb coming off his second torn ACL in back to back seasons. Â You mean you got offered a conditional first round pick next year if he throws over 4000 yards. Â I like Chip but everyone needs to stop pretending he's gods.gift.to the nfl. His record against winning teams is weak and until he wins a playoff game he's just like any other guy with a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015  Cause most teams that need a QB don't have a Foles to sweeten the deal.  Dingding winner winner chicken dinner!  Rams weren't trading Bradford just for picks. They wanted a QB that had more potential in their view. I think Foles is the only one they really would have gone for, but I could be wrong. That 2013 season, you know!  It's a sweet deal for the Rams - they not only got a QB they think of as more promising than Bradford, they got a 2nd round pick. Was driving up through Pennsylvania yesterday and Cleveland sports radio claimed it was the Browns who made the offer  Those poor guys.  McCown instead of Hoyer was not an upgrade IMHO.

ALLEN1QB Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) No way I want Bradford a Bill. The guy is an injury waiting to happen. I live in the Philly area and let me tell you they are extremely upset with this whole Kelly thing. You give up McCoy for a linebacker who might be ready for training camp to save money and then throw the same money to a Dallas Cowboy. If this season starts out poorly they are going to run him out of town. I for one am going to enjoy watching it happen.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 a 1st for a guy who had 2 ACL knee surgeries? say it aint so.  my wife was reading some FB stuff and read this to me  Bradford dislocated his elbow hanging up the phone with Chip.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Typically the logic is a pick one year out is valued one round lower so offering next years 1st rounder owuld be the equivalant of offering thme a 2nd this year. So probably not likely you'd get him for that.  Maybe this years 2nd and next years 1st would have got the deal done??  But would we even want to  Could the Bills have done this. Next yrs 1 ?

Heitz Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I think Kelly is full of it....Why wouldn't teams have gone to the Rams to get Bradford? Â Definitely seemed like a strange off the cuff comment (he said it on NFLN last night), especially because in his next breath he went on to talk about what a great QB Bradford is and how he's a great fit for his O, etc. Â This is like the time Buddy got 70 calls for our pick (or was it a player...?).

K-9 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Maybe I've been reading the title incorrectly.

Definitely worth reading given the tone of this thread: http://mmqb.si.com/2015/03/13/joe-banner-chip-kelly-philadelphia-eagles-overhaul/ Obviously, everything remains to be seen. Evaluating moves in March is just dumb. I think Kelly is a genius offensively. To make Sanchez look like a somewhat passable QB is amazing. Â I do think to much change in the NFL is a bad thing. Especially at some of your key positions like QB. He is also banking on guys with very questionable injury situations. Â If Kelly makes the playoffs after this, he deserves to be called a genius. If not, he will be a college coach next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but Carson Palmer received a big contract two days before tearing an ACL. They likely wouldn’t add another $12.985 million for another guy with a twice-torn ACL, especially when they may still be trading for a running back with a once-torn ACL. No. 23: Lions. No. Matthew Stafford. No. 22: Steelers. No. Ben Roethlisberger. No. 21: Bengals. No. Andy Dalton. (Fans may not be sold on him, but the team is.) No. 20: Eagles.

qwksilver Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The 20th & 19th plus a 2nd rounder next year should be enough to get Iggles to # 5 (Washington and in front for the jests) this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
