DefenseWins Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Well...didn't see that coming. They traded their best player because they didn't want to pay him. I previously said the Bills would win 6 games... Make that 4 wins... TANK! If you are gonna do it - DO IT RIGHT! Is Shady or TT next? Love all the draft picks AND the $$$ savings from not having to pay Watkins... Good Moves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 This is why you have to complete the job and send off Taylor, Shady, and Williams as well. I'm with you here Joe. Keep getting the assets for the rebuild. Don't half do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think they're going to be competitive this year. Not exactly what I meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Then either way this seems to be the best we could get for him. How do you know that? Do you think the Patriots give up a 1st to the Saints if Cooks has had his his option year declined? That also doesn't even account for when this trade is happening... after teams have set rosters and spent money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think they're going to be competitive this year. It's foolish to even reply to that. Jon Robinson was brought up in NE and has shown himself as one of the better talent evaluators in his brief time with Titans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acantha Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 This all comes down to what they do with the draft picks. If they're able to turn them into a potential top tier QB, it's all worth it. If they can't, it's just more of the same crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbillievable Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 We traded for Gaines (drafted in 6th round) for a 6th rounder. So Sammy Watkins for a 2nd round pick. Both are Injury prone. I'm canceling NFL Sunday ticket. Is August too soon to start a Draft thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayboy54 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Maybe it has something to do with the argument between Anquan and Sammy last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayboy54 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Nobody did any explaining as to what happened, but it was clear that the two were having a very animated discussion on the sidelines during the game. If this was about Sammy whining, or wanting out, or something similar, I can see where Boldin took it to management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Redskins would give a load for McCoy. They have no running game, as evidenced last night, and will lose Cousins next season. There future is NOW.get a first and do it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GETTOTHE50 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) And why not just role with Yates and Peterman. Oh because you can't sell that to a fan base that's missed the playoffs for 17 freaking years. What can you sell to a fanbase that has missed that much? Nothing. The only thing that shows conviction in the right direction is to tank and to give it an honest shot. Idk how fans can keep buying the same **** every year. Just !@#$ing rip the bandaid off already.

Magox Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 OMG, is that really how you interpreted that?!?!? You cleary missed the point. Do you think that you are better off winning 7 games or 3? I think 3. If your plan is to rebuild commit to it and raise your chances of getting a top pick. I think they did with this trade, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, of course. but just for a minute consider that we don't know how the season plays out for KC or LA or Philly. what will those picks be next spring. and I suppose it's just as wrong to not be willing to see my guys lose (even one game). If it came down to a meaningless win vs the patsies or 1st pick in the draft with a loss don't know what I'd wish for. guess the answer is I'll take the losses as long as there's hope for the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think they did with this trade, no? Not all the way, but are headed there. That's my point. Either tank or try to win. They should send out Tyrod and Shady and try to pick earlier. Don't half do it.You're right, of course. but just for a minute consider that we don't know how the season plays out for KC or LA or Philly. what will those picks be next spring. and I suppose it's just as wrong to not be willing to see my guys lose (even one game).

They are a worse team in 2017 now than they were last night. If the goal is that this was a step back to take a step forward in the future take another step back now to take another step forward in 2018.
