whatdrought Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Quinn might still be looking for big money, and considering he had something like 8 sacks last year, he'll probably get it. Especially when you consider how bare the EDGE cupboard is in both FA and draft this year. I would love to have him or Alex Okafor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimp on da' net Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) I would like to see Austin with this new OC using him with the jet- sweep potential(& threat) and wheel routes out of the slot. Quinn would fill an obvious need as well...DB Ammerman (Raiders) was also released and is a potential pickup w/o compensation.

Kirby Jackson Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The Bills tried to trade up for Barron once. It’s a different regime but some of the same scouts. I would bet that he is an option.

Amerson, and I've been vocal about wanting to flip a late-round pick for him in the event that Gaines walked, so I'm a bit biased toward him. 2 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: The Bills tried to trade up for Barron once.

I have to admit that I had that in mind when I made this thread. 1 minute ago, Fixxxer said: I don't know about that, unless you think Ansah and Lawrence will be both re-signed by their respective teams. (Lions and Cowboys) Dallas has already said that they'd tag Lawrence sans a long-term deal. Ansah is probably going to sign for upwards of $15M AAV, so I don't think he's in play for Buffalo. 1 minute ago, billsbackto81 said: Austin is trash. Quinn would be a nice upgrade from Lawson.

(Lions and Cowboys) I think Lawrence will probably go back to Dallas and Ansah probably isn't on the level of Quinn just because he's been very inconsistant throughout his career. Though I do not know how far Quinn's game has slipped, but my guess is that his history will still bring him in a substantial contract. 2 minutes ago, thebandit27 said: Barron has been playing the "moneybacker" spot for the Rams the last 3 years.

I know that as a rule McD prefers faster more athletic backers who go side to side well and I am sure that as Baron is a former SS he might be more that mold.

He checks multiple boxes for what McDermott likes: he can cover, he can range sideline to sideline, and he's versatile.

blacklabel Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Barron could be in play because of his versatility and we know how much McD values that. Barron can play that hybrid safety/linebacker role that has come into fashion in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearLess Price Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I can see a small raid. Same with philly, they have a lot of FAs and no cap space really. If we dont trade up to grab a qb in the 1st, then i see mcderm going all in on a front 7 rebuild. Hes gonna wanna rebuild the LBs or DLs like he fixed the secondary this year.
