oldmanfan Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 McCoy is next. Been rumors today. Where? Have seen or heard nothing. Don't make stuff up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 McCoy rumors were being talked about on social media. People that claim to be in the know linking McCoy to Baltimore and that he is being shopped. Like everything on social media there is a high probability it is fake news but often times where there is smoke there is fire and a lot of rumors end up being real like what we saw with Sammy. There was a thread saying he was available for a 2nd round pick and we all laughed and then a month later he is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 By rumors do you mean, drunk texts between drunk friends? I don't think that such a trade is beyond the realm of possibility mind you, but Bills Fans are the funniest fans in sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is probably all rubbish but now I am wondering about the prolonged look at JWill with the starters in pre-season game 1.... was that a "if we did trade Shady....."?? If they trade McCoy then they are planning to tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We on the other hand would have a higher cap hit at around 7.8 million for 2017. Doesn't make sense unless there's a really high pick involved.

BillsfaninMyrtleBeach Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 We as the fans don't have a voice in any decisions they make. We just gripe and whine and gnash our teeth, bang our heads on the wall, drink, dream and speculate. But do we give up going to the games? Do we give up on watching them on tv? Nope! We just sit and suffer. Will the Bills get better? Who the hell knows!!! It's the prospect of them actually,maybe,hopefully having a winning season that keeps us coming back. If nothing else, we Bills fans are eternal optimists. I for one will be a fan win or lose. Go Bills!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Those talking about McCoy are buying in to the hype on social media and that he is headed back to Phili Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMF2006 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Because one over the hill player thats been here all of 2 weeks retires the whole season is doomed. Other Vet players will want out and demand trades.....come on people get a grip. I think the veteran leadership on this team has more guts and gumption than that. While I did like the Boldin signing he clearly wasn't better than some of the young guns he would have stole time from. Even with that said I see a few waiver wire guys coming in after labor day. I just hope they make it past the Jests who are in worse shape than the Bills at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahnyc Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 If we trade McCoy (which I doubt), not matching the offer for Gillislee will look incredibly foolish in hind sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrober38 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Trade McCoy and commit to losing 12 or more games this year. if the bills do something stupid like trading McCoy, they are going to lose to the jets And that would be fine. If the Bills are going to be bad (which they are), then be as bad as possible and get that 1st overall pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bills are going to be bad (which they are), then be as bad as possible and get that 1st overall pick. Which would also get us the 33rd pick. And 65th. Along with another each 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Possible the most stacked draft of all time - for us to screw up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedboy7 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Surprises? I think the Bills will suck beyond belief and the fans actually will dig it cause they are so confused and brainwashed about "rebuilding". The Bills end up with under 5 wins for the next 10 years but the fans label the decade as the rebirth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Let's always trade the rare good players we have for more picks, so we can use those picks on mostly bad players. Then with the one or two rare good ones, we can turn around and trade them for more picks that we waste on bad players. Let's just keep that cycle going and never win. Like our current reality. Or maybe we could actually try to identify the good players, and keep them? Maybe that's how teams get good? By keeping the players that can help you win Why did we bring back Lorenzo Alexander? Or even Kyle Williams? Wtf was the point of bringing back an old, slow LB that doesn't fit the scheme? A guy coming off a history level career year and would be extremely overpriced? If all we are going to do is use this season to bring in draft picks, why do we have old guys on this defense? I hope the shady stuff is just a false rumor.

I hear all of that, but will Shady still be good by the time the rest of the team catches up? Unlikely. I certainly don't know, but perhaps Kyle, Lorax, etc were to keep the cap manageable. They don't have to overpay to get to the floor, and then next year they are gone leaving plenty of money for the 3700 draft picks. Just a thought.
