NoSaint Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) I'm LMAO at all the "geniuses" who posted in this thread, and basically laughed at the OP, and insinuated that he's an idiot. Please go ahead and step up and eat some crow, because y'all were PWND. To be fair implying we'd get a day 1 or 2 pick was laughable.

Please go ahead and step up and eat some crow, because y'all were PWND. This is actually a very simple thread to follow. The OP was correct with the trade prediction BUT way off with the trade value which almost made the Cassell to Dallas part seem like a guess to begin with.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I say pursue the Cowboys for a first rounder or 2nd and 3rd rounder as it might be worth it to the boys and allow us to utilize EJ as the backup or maybe future starter as well as giving us some leeway next year in the draft as it seems like we have a surplus at QB perhaps. nailed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I wish we could have lobbied successfully for a 4th round pick. That is usually the lowest you find as a starter, but getting a 5th for Cassel is still a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in Jax Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 To be fair implying we'd get a day 1 or 2 pick was laughable. To be fair, most of the people who came out against the idea said nothing about what the Bills would get in return IF they did it, but rather they mocked the OP, and said no how, no way was it happening, nor did it make any sense. So yeah, they were PWND by being so very adamant in their beliefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtgolder Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Bottom line is the Bills got a higher draft choice from a guy they recently released to waivers. They were willing to let Cassell go, got lucky when he cleared waivers, and now have a 5th round pick. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dopey Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 To be fair implying we'd get a day 1 or 2 pick was laughable. All he said was to pursue a 1st or 2nd and third, he didn't imply we would get it. Maybe we asked for a high pick and negotiated to the current deal. I'd say he NAILED it. But that's just me.

So yeah, they were PWND by being so very adamant in their beliefs. any of the snickering remarks were about round. you had a couple respectful "i think they will just roll with weeden for now" and about a half dozen "you must be joking or high to expect a high pick" does that mean you just got PWND? i really am not sure proper usage of that one in this thread. All he said was to pursue a 1st or 2nd and third, he didn't imply we would get it. Maybe we asked for a high pick and negotiated to the current deal. I'd say he NAILED it. But that's just me. pretty much every qb injury, bad game, or incomplete pass thrown by a qb around the league has been met with a "can we trade one of our backups" im sorry but its hard to say anyone NAILED it here. the people criticizing the OP were just as close to right as he was....

That worked out well huh? I can't wait for our first rounder next yea... oh wait. We got $hit back for trading him. Bad Move Bills! Bad Move!!!

eball Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Despite the fact the Bills did trade Cassel to the Cowboys, it's safe to say the OP still falls under the long established category of fan opinion, namely: "your trade proposal sucks." There was no way in hell anyone would ever give a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round pick for Cassel. Never. The fact the OP surmised that the superfluous Cassel could be dealt to Dallas because they need someone not named Weeden was neither prescient nor particularly surprising. It's likely the first thing that came to many of our minds as soon as Romo went down. This is not an attack on the OP -- just a little eyebrow-raising at those patting him on the back for such a "bold" prediction (that didn't even come true in the manner he suggested).

thebug Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 A couple of years ago I listed my 1978 Datsun station wagon for sale on Ebay. I thought I could get a million dollars for it. Some of my buddies laughed at me. A guy offered me $500.00 for and I took the offer! I sure showed those guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we asked for a high pick and negotiated to the current deal. I'd say he NAILED it. But that's just me. Yeah, I can imagine how that conversation took place... Jerry: Hey Doug...we got a cotton pickin problem down here in big D. We're in need of a QB. What would it take for us to get our filthy hands on Matt Cassel. Doug: Well Jerry, we're going to need either a 1st rounder or a 2nd and 3rd rounder as compensation. Cassel is a solid, reliable veteran. Jerry: Laughter ensues in the background....click. Doug (calls back): Whoa...sorry Jerry. How about a 5th rounder in 2017? Jerry: Click Doug (calls back): Okay Jerry...Cassel and a 2017 7th rounder for a 2017 5th rounder. Jerry: That's a rootin tootin deal, Dougie!! Edited September 23, 2015 by Johnny Hammersticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
