Coach55 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) Mods - please don’t merge this thread. My question for the forum is over the past 72 hours how many of you been repeatedly checking every bills website whatever chance you get based on Astro’s trade tweet? It has engulfed me as much as the preseason game. I keep checking everything hoping for the blockbuster news to bring that one last cog... Thanks Astro.

Bangarang Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I haven’t been simply because I know nothing is going to happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I was for a few days. Now I'm just pumped for THIS team after seeing the preseason game. Whatever happens will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fansince88 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Im the one that added to the tweet page because of a conversation I had with Astro and I havent lost any sleep on it. Seriously fellow Bills fan.....sometimes we need to take a break. This might be that time if it is controlling you this much. Astro apparently thought he heard something that made him believe it was coming soon. Three things happened. 1) He was mistaken 2) It is taking longer then expected 3)It fell through. I will tell you what did not happen. Astro was not blowing smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Coach-Welcome to this board, and I would consider renaming you’re title as the Administrator suggested. When we open these threads, it’s nice to have an understanding of what is you’re point from the link. i assume you are referring to a potential trade for Mack, but you forgot to mention the player’s name. No big deal and I would love that trade, and would probably put our defense into a top 5 defense, but the most I would do is next year’s 1st, and Shaq Lawson. We could put a lot of the money for his contract into next year. we’ll see if Chucky would go for that trade. I wouldn’t want to give away anyone else or more draft picks. The deal has to work for both sides. i haven’t given up until he resigns with Oakland, but doubt it will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanbillsfan2206 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I try not to lose sleep over baseless speculation. But it would be pretty awesome if we got Khalil Mack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach55 Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 Sorry about the initially vague topic line. Was late. The reason there was no mention of Mack is that is what the board interpreted it to mean. I would love Mack as much as the next guy. But after last year’s list of surprises, anyone is game. Beane holds his cards close to his vest. My excitement has tempered as clearly nothing happened. But I am not expecting Beane to be done until the 3rd preseason game.

fansince88 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) 2 hours ago, 8-8 Forever? said: what did he tweet? Bean isnt done yet. Then when I asked him via text he said that it would materialize in the next 48 hours. Dean isnt one to make a statement without knowing. This is why I say plans must have changed or it is taking longer. Edited August 11, 2018 by fansince88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 There are very, very few people in here who I believe to have legit inside info, and he isn't one of them. If it should pan out, he can join that short list. Until then, it's just another thread on this board. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Not sure why the constant Astro references/posts/threads. In his years posting here, he was great. Now, for whatever reasons he took his "efforts" to another website. There are others to fill his void. Time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Astro is not one to troll people with speculative tweets. I'm sure he heard something from someone he thought was credible. But sometimes things don't happen. We won't know what's been discussed by Beane. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
