You gotta trade McCoy now... right?

It’s pretty obvious the Bills are gonna struggle badly this season. If we can get a nice pick for McCoy, this is pretty much a full rebuild and he’s only got 3-4 pro bowl years left, maximum.

 

Reality seems to finally be setting in for Bills fans about this season. We need to trade him now, right?

I'm astonished at the lack of awareness and understanding of the salary cap and position value.  RBs past the age of 28 have very little value in the trade market.  When you add to the equation a high cap number it's even less.  Also, the legal issues of this specific player and previously known character issues and you're stuck with him.

They absolutely can trade him for a 4th,5th, 6th  no problem, if it comes to that. By week 4, he will be demanding a trade out of here, so nobody will need to feel bad for him.

To clarify, I did not say anywhere in my post that I would be expecting a third round pick or anything like that, so the crybabies can direct their sadness elsewhere.

 

I’m just saying he has more value to contenders than he has for us. That’s when trades happen.

You're delusional.  If you could find a willing partner to accept the money owed (a big if) you're looking at a conditional 6th or 7th tops.  In a position of much higher value, what did the Bills get for M. Darius?

It’ll happen by the deadline 

Not to wish injury upon some player, but hopefully a playoff team will lose a #1 RB to injury at some point.  McCoy's price will then be at it's highest.

 

Get 'er done Beane!

McCoy looks checked out. I'd try and get rid of him asap. 

 

Murphy was our best player today. He ran hard, and performed well on special teams. 

 

I'd rather give him a chance with Ivory spelling him, but we need to get something for McCoy if we can.
