26CornerBlitz Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 If you can backfill LT with a PS level guy and get decently young starting and locked up LT trade collateral, I guess you do it. But what are the odds that can work? The Bills have had trouble all season long establishing the run game, so now that Glenn is returning to health in a critical stretch of the season, they're willing to trade him to a team they could potentially have to beat out for a WC berth? Makes no sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yes exactly, my bad 5 total....most NFL teams carry 3 max. Not if those OT's can swing to the inside and man interior positions along the OL as well, which is possible for at least 3 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 It would be way cool if we trade all of our good players. Next man down. Trust the prospect. Minus one Buffalo. Would you take Denver's first for Glenn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 He is on our roster, we have 4 total tackles on the team with him, Glenn, Mills & Henderson which is fueling the speculation about a trade especially since he didn't dump Henderson yet. I'm not saying he's a future all pro, but he was a 6th round pick by the Pats that many thought would go much higher hence the reason Pats wanted to stash him so to speak. Also sources of mine out west loved this kid at UCLA. A towering behemoth of a physical specimen with experience in a pro style offense. Very athletic with rare skills indeed. Yeah, my bad. I thought when they kept Henderson on the roster, McD was put on PS. These guys love to play around with the roster and often seem to leave the team short on some positions and bloated on others. It was a crime to dress only four CBs against the Bengals and we got burnt bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I was thinking that, too. Knowing the Bills aren't likely enamored with Seantrell's history, the Broncos could offer a #7 for him. #7's are all but worthless. Henderson for Martavius Bryant makes too much sense.........it's a drug deal that could help both teams. (Trust the prospect, ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Does this hypothetical player play special teams? Of course and he also plays all 22 positions and is a good teammate and leader and has a charity that he supports. Best of all he is young and makes the league minimum. All of the above gives McBeane wet dreams at night Edited October 20, 2017 by kdiggz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yes exactly, my bad 5 total....most NFL teams carry 3 max. Regardless of the outlet, Benjamin Albright is a legit insider trust me on this. And what's the matter with Walt Cherpinski's site? He's actually one of the pundits that has been fairly positive regarding the Bills in recent years, in fact I think their 2018 mock draft has us picking 25th overall (not KC's pick) which indicates they expect us to make the playoffs this year. I'm sure Walter Cherepinski is a very nice guy. He's fundamentally a Penn State frat boy who graduated, moved into his Mom's basement, and built a living out of packaging mock drafts and fantasy football info after he couldn't get a journalism job or make a living selling mortgages. Nothing wrong with that, he's making money now in a legal way, but he's not particularly knowledgeable about football nor has he any particular insight or inside information about any team.

Kelly the Dog Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Would you take Denver's first for Glenn? Doubt it. Draft picks are still 50-50 in the first round. Solid tackles are still worth a ton in this league. You could only dream about getting a guy as good as Glenn even with a #1 and I know he was a #2.

He's apparently funny about paying good players when perfectly inadequate ones are available for less. This is what a lot of folks don't get. Regardless of some fans thoughts on Glenn and Dareus, they aren't Beane and McD's guys and in their minds they don't feel they should be paid the kind of money they are getting and tie it back to the previous regime's failures. That's why nobody should be made when (not if) both are traded or released. But if we can swing a trade at least we get something in return and I'm sure they'd be estatic for just about anything in regards to Dareus.

Makes no sense to me. And he is a proven blue chip commodity. If they move him, unless the line just blows opponents off the ball for the remainder of the season with the replacement, we're all going to start letting that tank mode thought back in. I just can't imagine any offensive line situation where a Cordy doesn't make it better.. right/left, tackle or guard.

They don't have the horses to put in their own work or know how to create "in depth scouting reports". They compile mock drafts, hundreds and hundreds of them. It's what they do.

I've always liked him and thought that he was a very good player who didn't get much recognition.

Trading Glenn mid-season in no way can be considered "fixing the cap situation". They would have to obtain a lot of value to compensate for both losing a starting LT and accelerating a $9.6M cap hit.

You could only dream about getting a guy as good as Glenn even with a #1 and I know he was a #2. I tend to agree but I can't truthfully say that I would be angry if they did. The way I look at it is that it could help get us a quarterback. I also don't think the Broncos will have a great record, and this draft seems to be a good one. Despite the above, teams just don't trade solid left tackles. When we traded away Peters he was the best player on the team. It didn't work and as you imply, the odds are against it working now.

The Jokeman Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) It depends on what the definition of too much is though. A 1st round pick? Obviously not happening. A RB or WR + mid round pick, that seems more than feasible to me for a solid (albeit not elite) LT. There's talk that Denver's RB Devontae Booker to Dallas was a hot rumor but that got shot down quickly. Yet if the Bills want a RB from the Broncos all we need to do is sign Jonathan Williams off their practice squad with no compensation assuming Denver doesn't match it by making him part of their active roster. Yet I doubt they'd do it since have 4 active RBs already. Edited October 20, 2017 by The Jokeman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
