formerlyofCtown Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) If the Jets tender WR Robby Anderson at a 2nd round rate should we make an offer. We would likely have to pay him well but may get away with it given their coaching search. He is a talker WR and I like what Ive seen from him. Really would feel like a Pats move huh. Guess I need to clarify that he is a RFA. Edited January 1, 2019 by formerlyofCtown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) I think he’s worth it. Probably the best wR in this draft Edited January 1, 2019 by NewEra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 You're fine giving up a 2nd rounder for Robby Anderson, despite his multiple off-field issues, but you're dead set against giving up a first rounder for either Antonio Brown or Julio Jones? Sorry; I don't get it. As for Robby, no, I wouldn't give a 2. Robby is a nice player, but I had a R3 grade on him coming out of Temple; I feel like equal players can (and will) come from the middle rounds of the next 2 drafts. 6 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because WR usually take 2 to 3 years to develope. Anderson is already looking good. I am concerned about drops but I havnt been able to find any reliable data. I dont recall seeing an issue with it when I watched him but it was an issue in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I like Anderson and think he would be good with Josh. That said, with Foster's emergence and Zay's late push, the Bills may be able to get away with one major acquisition for WR instead of two, and that guy needs to either be or have potential to be a true #1 WR. And that ain't Anderson. We need a true 1 and maybe a decent 4. Anderson is a 2-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I need to clarify that he is a RFA. Tough to say. I guess the debate here is, if Anderson would be more valueable than a WR that you could take in the 2nd round. In 2019, I would say that Anderson likely will perform at a higher level than most of the WRs would their rookie year. Over time though, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to think that a WR could exceed Anderson’s output. It all depends how much pressure the Bills are to win in 2019. My guess would be that they wouldn’t give up an asset for Anderson and as discussed here, he doesn’t seem to be the type of player they want in the locker room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see this regime going out of its comfort zone of adding mid-level talent. My sense is that the Bills will have little interest in getting a Julio Jones or AB type of talent through a trade because I don't see this brain trust giving up a first round pick for any player at any position.

By maintaining a low expectation you will be rewarded with having your expectation being met. You might be dissatisfied with a Funchess-like acquisition but I would consider it an upgrade. I would take two of those middling players and walk away with a smile on my face. There are times when thinking small can make you walk away with a smile on your face.

The reason he is blocked is because he doesnt pay attention to what hes reading. If he did he would already know why I would take give a second rounder for Anderson and not the 9th overall pick straight up for Brown or Julio at this point. I mentioned several times in the other thread that it was because of where we are at in the rebuild process. You arent familiar with the conversations from before and there are many of them. Im sick of wasting time discussing anything with someone that isnt going to consider whats being said. They dont have to agree with it just actually consider what you are reading. So rather than argue with someone like that and lose my cool I blocked him. Which is very grown up and wise considering I do lose my cool from time wish I didnt but I do. You mister internet tough guy need to mind your own business and grow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
