He is coming off a very bad knee injury and a PED suspension. Now it seems like he has a groin issue that is keeping him off the field. Should we start to be concerned if we don't see him in the pre season games? Should Bean seriously look into trying to get Khalil Mack if possible? If Trent !@#$ing Murphy’s health is the reason Beane isn’t considering Khalil Mack, I’d fire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

September was for the pros. I expect our FA acquisitions to be ready for the Ravens game as well... There's a slight difference between a team that backed into the playoffs with 9 wins and lots of luck after missing them for 17 years, and a team that dominated its division and conference for most of a decade.

GunnerBill Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I think there is a very good chance Murphy starts the year on IR. And I mean a very good chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bean has to consider the salary. Just at DE we have some pretty big salaries and also having Mack’s salary wouldn’t work. We would have to trade Jerry hughes get his big salary off the books. Shaq is not cheap either as a first round pick and Murphy is not tradable now with his injuries and he has a $10million salary. Trade Hughes and Shaq and a 2nd round pick for Mack and this works. But Murphy has to be healthy or Mack trade might not be possible if he would be available for trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying I hope he is at least inquiring about Mack. I wouldn't give up 2 1st rd picks for him but I would give up a 1st and a 4th. He is still young and is a top 3 player at a key position and he seems to want to play for Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to have Mack on the team This year would have to give up both high draft picks and compensation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a very real risk he doesn't play this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Well I'm worried. I wonder if I'll ever see him in a Bills uni at this point. Hyperbole maybe but can't judge someone I've never seen as a Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
