Gugny Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Levy was brought in for one reason - to heal the damage to fans and players - and he did that well. He was a caretaker GM. Levy, IMO, did absolutely nothing well as a GM. Zilch. Just winners! I think you and I have different definitions of "winners." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 The Bills are highly unlikely to make the playoffs even if Sammy had a huge year. Sammy was unlikely to return to Buffalo (with a new QB probably on the horizon in 2018, and given his strainged relationship with the organization). I believe Sammy has top talent but the Bills got something, when after this season, they may get nothing. I support the move and only time will tell if it was the right one. Oh yeah, this could end up being a bad move. Reasonable people can agree with that but it could end up being a good move as well. If Sammy ends up being a border line pro bowl player or worse, then not having to sign him at $17M a year on a long-term basis along with maybe Gaines being a quality contributing player on the team and drafting a second rounder that ends up being a quality contributor then they look like geniuses.

BeginnersMind Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) This isn't even a conversation if they pick up his team option. That was never going to happen after the last 3 years of injuries. I don't blame them at all for not exercising the option. Maybe Sammy turns into the Larry Fitzgerald we all hoped for and the Bills look stupid, but if I was the GM, I never pick up that option. I wouldn't look back on that decision based on the evidence I'd seen. BTW, I like Sammy a lot. He's a good guy and a stud WR. But his risk/reward made the trade sensible.
