KDIGGZ Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Shady and a mid round pick for Foles. Dump Anderson and Peterman. I'm not a Foles fan but you could certainly do worse (and we have). We need someone who can play this year and be a mentor next year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade your RB and waste a 1st round pick on his replacement. Hahah! By no means am I saying spend a 1st on a RB. I am saying if you find your Edge after getting rid of Shady regardless of the round id be a happy man. Offensive talent is a must right now.

FistingBot Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 If by "very active" it means sending Kelvin Benjamin out of town and replacing him with someone who acts like they appreciate the opportunity to play the game of football at the highest level, then I'm all for a trade or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 3 minutes ago, CodeMonkey said: The point is selling good old players for high round draft picks to help a team that is rebuilding. No point in the Bills holding on to Shady for his last few years for a rebuild. Not good for the team long term or fair to Shady. After tonight's game the Bills are pretty much out of the playoffs (mathematically) already. IF Shady is not in next years plans AND he is willing to be traded AND they get a reasonable return I see no problem with it now. I didn't feel this way a couple of weeks ago but with JA down and 2 losses in a row I have changed my mind. IF OBD wants to move on from Clay and a team is willing to trade, do it. Trade Benjamin if they can. These 3 are the only ones that should be considered. No to trading Hughes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 4 minutes ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: You don't trade for players that don't make an immediate difference. You don't trade for players you hope will be good, that is what the draft is for and no team is going to give up their young talent that they are trying to develop. Look the season is over .we can only lose TWO more games this year just to equal lasts year's record that just got us in the playoffs by the skin of our teeth and we still have to play the Patriots twice. We have done great drafting and so so in pro player acquisitions, I'd rather have the picks. Players that won't make an immediate difference are traded for all the time. Bills traded Kevon Seymour and Marshall Newhouse... neither of those guys are making an immediate difference. Teams do trade to get depth players or players that can fill certain roles. "You don't trade for players you hope will be good." Well, then what kinda players are you going to be drafting, then? It's the same thing. You take guys in the draft and hope that your staff can coach 'em up and develop them into solid players. You can also trade for a player that's maybe buried on a depth chart due to the talent in front of him and is just in need of a better opportunity elsewhere, and you do the same thing you do with a draft pick, hope that your coaches can get him on the same page as the rest of the team and hope he can contribute. Front offices hope all their draft picks will be good, from round one to Mr. Irrelevant. They also hope that the players they may trade for will also come in and be good. It's pretty much the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can argue the Watkins and Dareus trades if you have a side on that but trading Shady and KB makes sense. We don't have much else to trade so I doubt we'll be disappointed at this point.

jrober38 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Would love to see us trade McCoy for a pick. Benjamin for a ham sandwich would also be good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just speculating Bluesky but it wouldn't surprise me to see one or more of those picks used to move up to get a player. Both Beane and McDermott seem willing to do that in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
