IF hes done I dont think the Bills can afford to trade up for a qb. Way too many holes and possibly the worse OLine in the NFL. Not a good mix

 

That's what McCarron is for.  

 

QB is still the most important position in football.  Let's not get crazy.

Looks like we go heavy with OL in every rnd and hope lamar or allen fall to 12.

I really do not think the team will change their mind on their QB of the future based on who the LG is in 2018.

Knee jerk reaction here, I know.

 

Does this change how we look at McCoy? We'll be running out a "journeyman QB", rookie QB and Nathan Peterman with no real WRs and we've lost 3 of our best offensive lineman...

 

I love love love Shady, but I think he deserves a chance to win. I don't think that is us next year. 


Too early to say.  We have a lot of work to do in the draft.

The Bills need to look after their own interests not an individual players. It may be best that they trade Shady for another second round pick and rebuild properly.

At his age this is a dangerous move. Many people here had him down as a Cap casualty

 

We have seen this before with Offensive linemen, they make all-pro at 34 only to be out of the league the next season over drafting a cheaper guard

I think you are looking at Ryan Groy as a left guard, possibly signing a guy like Luke Joeckel. Newhouse also has some versatility and can play guard. Bodine can play center and guard. 

 

This is a very big loss, but we still have options.

If I’m the Bills I call his bluff and let him retire. Can’t screw around with his act right now. He signed a contract. If he doesn’t want to play so be it, but why would a little more money change that like he told peter King?

 

richie is blaming his representation but agents want to get paid too and they aren’t about signing below market deals unless that’s the actual market.

Its not about losing a guard its about losing 3 pro bowl caliber lineman

 

Cordy Glenn barely played last year and we already have a LT to take his place.  We used Glenn trade to specifically move up to get better leverage to get the QB.

Wood retired a few days after the WC game.

So right now, it's just losing a guard.  That's the only thing that's changed recently.

A realistic take on the situation.

 

We'll see how Beane and McDermott go about this.  There is something to be said for vet leadership and Shady is still the best player on the team.
