bigbuffs Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Seems to be on the outs in Miami. Always thought he was a good WR, he impressed me several times in the past though I haven’t paid mich attention to him lately. He has good size 6’3” I believe he is in the final year of rookie contract and I think the dolphins picked up his 5th year option which is 10 mil. Not sure if we would have to take that on but definitely can’t pay him 10mil next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 This has been discussed a bit... I would give up a 4th or later, they apparently want a 3rd but i don’t think they will get it. The biggest thing is I highly doubt they will trade him in the division. Dennis Hickey was in Miami when they drafted him, so if he ever got released I think we would claim him.

NewEra Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Let’s trade for a guy that hasn’t been consistently healthy in 3 years and is due a contract in a year. No thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Divisional trades rarely make sense. If Miami is okay with him being in the division he isn't good enough. If they aren't then he isn't available to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigs Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Beane has a history of trading for talent? Why do people on here genuinely believe he’d actually trade for talent? He’s not going to make any moves that help the team, just his stock of picks. You’re all fools for believing otherwise. Might as well start a “Bills should trade for Brady” thread since it’s about as likely to happen. Or yall can be realistic and start a bunch of “Bills should trade for [insert round] pick” threads, which is waaaaay more likely to happen.

But that’s why I asked I just heard BB say that the division rivals probably wouldn’t trade with us.. (I bet he called and asked about Parker and they told him to BUGGER OFF.. lol) I mean BB obviously had no worries about it he dealt Bledsoe to you guys for a 1st round pick. 4 minutes ago, RochesterRob said: Not so much in current times but in previous eras a trade often lit a fire under the traded player to do better. But being traded from a team that isn’t a contender to one that is.. that also can light a fire under a player.. not always but the persuit of that ring is very strong esp in older players near the end.

Hey we gave them a 2nd and a 7th for Welker! We only paid a 4th for Moss! They fleeced my team! ? ?. but seriously Parker probably look like a Superstar with a Brady, Brees, or Rogers throwing him the ball.. MOST RECEIVERS DO.

JoshAllenHasBigHands Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Wait, why are we trading for a guy on the last year of his contract in a year we cannot make the playoffs?

K-9 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 This is a tough one, but if I had to propose a trade for DeVante Parker, I’d have to suggest plumbing, with carpentry a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no reason to burn a draft pick and acquire Parker's contract when he's clearly shown throughout his career that he cannot stay healthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Pryor, Parker? Probably best just to draft 3-4 wrs and use FA for oline. I see Zay as the only guy surviving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB was and still is playing with house money.. At that time it was one year and one super bowl he had no way of knowing whether Brady was gonna flop or not. He just took a chance and made the right call. For all he knew, Bledsoe could have came here and took us to multiple super bowls. He's not that much of a genius that he could have possibly known 100% what the outcome of that whole thing would turn out like. After all, he is who he is because he has the greatest QB of all time playing for him. That's what makes him look like a genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a risk but a calculated one after Brady led the team to the SB after an amazing rookie year.. he had a sophomore slump but nothing since..
