I don't see Beane's phone ringing for Benjamin, do you? 

 

Or Clay for that matter. 

 

They will both be free agents and neither one brings much. 

 

The only guy that could move is Shady. 

 

Honestly, I think league perception is the KB and Clay are better than they are playing. And I think that is true. BB talked about how important it was to stop Charles Clay. Teams design their defenses to take away  KB a lot of the time. So I think there is some value there. I dunno, I could be wrong, but that's what I think.

That's what I love about this site.  It's the unbridled optimism.

 

Well we are running on a 50+ year track record of bad football on the field and in the front office.  About 80% of the Bills football existence has been spent as a laughing stock, punchline or just met with apathy by the nation. Only in Buffalo do we drink Kool-aide and psyche ourselves into "Billieving"

Well you should thank your lucky stars for them or you wouldn't have any pro sports teams in Buffalo.  They are doing the best they can.  Both franchises were a complete mess.  Sabres look like they are going to be very competitive this year and I think you're jumping the gun on the Bills.  I think they'll need at least two more years before they are an elite team, but I do believe that management is taking the right approach.  You just need to have a little patience.  McDermott and Beane have been on the job less than two full seasons. 

 

 

You can be happy they kept the team here and still criticize them for their complete ineptitude in running the two teams so far.

As far as trades go, I figured if they planned on moving Shady, they would not let him have that many touches last night. But since, he's healthy and we suck, I am not opposed to seeing Shady, Benjamin and Clay move on and see what we have in the youth. Croom cost me $600 last night by not hauling it in!

 

Cost me $250 as well.

You could get mid round picks for both if a contending team needs a DT and Pass Rusher. 

 

I would have to go thru the list of contenders and see if any are there.

 

But also there goes McD “leadership counsel”. 


Not a chance.

 

No NFL team ever trades for anyone in their mid 30s in the last year of their contract.

The Buffalo Bills will never be a successful NFL team under the ownership of Terry & Kim Pegula.  Same goes for the Buffalo Sabres.

Sabres will be strong for years... Stay tuned...

I saw the notebook paper Daboll had too.

 

I busted out laughing. Good stuff

The offensive version of Matt Patricia, complete with pencil tucked under his hat at a rakishly jaunty angle, because, those Surface Pros the NFL gives out are for losers

McCoy

Benjamin

Kyle

Lorax

Lawson

 

are the 5 candidates to be traded.

 

I think 2 of those 5 go - Lorax and Benjamin

Trading Lorax makes zero sense to me. Bc he's 35, you'll get little for him, but bc he's Lorax he just might play til he's 40 and almost certainly would take a favorable contract to play here longer. I don't see any reason to touch this defense right now. It's a similar story for Shaq: what you get will likely be almost nothing. And I doubt Kyle cares to go anywhere. Fire sale-ing for the sake of Fire Sale-ing is dumb. If someone bowls them over for McCoy, sure...and Amari Cooper trade shows you might be able to almost recoup investment in Kelvin.

Lol, this was said with Ralph Wilson and I venture to guess that it would be said under any owner until they start winning.

My guess is the Bills do nothing. They'll talk about the value of draft picks and then on draft day trade them like drunken sailors. 

And last year they got a middle linebacker who is 20, already a leader, and by all accounts looks like a budding superstar, a DT who has played very well so far, a CB who exceeded expectations, and we'll see what happens with Neal and Teller. That's not even mentioning Allen whose QB story has yet to be written.
