Wouldn't the Bills trade for Mack with the idea of pairing him up with Edmunds? Involving Edmunds in a trade for Mack defeats the very idea of acquiring Mack in the first place. Uggh....

(Regardless of different positions.) Oh, Edmunds is going to be a beast. Pray he remains healthy. God doesn’t make too many football players with his mix of size/speed/talent.

TheFunPolice Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Davis might literally not have the $$ in the bank to pay Mack his signing bonus... Mack is great but trading a great LB for a supposedly top 1-2 pick plus some throw ins is a decent deal I think Bills pick might be 20-30 range but everyone thinks we'll be terrible so that might help...

He missed that we are offering a 2034 5th rounder for Mack, but the Raiders will save all that cap space for Gruden’s offense. Or, just maybe, we’re not all on the same page here. We will not be signing Mack, so, whatever..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Edmunds is the everlasting Gronk stopper! He stays. Brady cries. Belichick smirks, but only to acknowledge that it's over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but those cards are held my a coach who's been out of the league for 10 years, and only success came from taking a team a HOF head coach built to a Super Bowl and them dismantling it.

Lwt's not kid ourselves. The Raiders are nearly at Browns level of organizational disfunction My point exactly. Their owner is broke as far as NFL owners go. Just plain doesn't have the cash to pay Mack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, Beane could shock us and trade FOR another quality player. But at what position would that happen? And for what player? Spittin' in the wind... I'm going with literally not done at WR. That's all I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estelle Getty Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 You guys have all gone a bit crazy whoever thinks we would trade a LB we just moved up for in the draft for another LB. Because that would make alot of sense. Fine me a trade like this that has ever happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes is getting up there, Murphy is a big fat ?, and you know the story after them. 3 minutes ago, Estelle Getty said: You guys have all gone a bit crazy whoever thinks we would trade a LB we just moved up for in the draft for another LB.

Quote a single post where anyone suggests including Edmunds in a trade would be a smart idea. Go ahead...I’ll wait.

Need to be able to have a rotation in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think DE is a more pressing need (especially if there is a stud available), and DT depth can be attained in the draft/FA.

Why not just trade Shaq for Mack and Adolpus for Donald? Both problems solved. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
