I will be shocked if anyone pays him much.......he kinda' needs to earn his way back on the cheap. But if it were down to those teams the Bills would have more to gain and may be willing offer him the more favorable contract length.........one year........where I would assume Chicago(or any other team taking on his issues) would want 2 years. The Bears in particular already have a deep backfield that they might want to let shake out for a couple seasons. The Bills should be a motivated shopper and while I don't highly value RB's this would be a good first step toward what is hopefully a series of major offseason moves. Agree with both of these statements. While the Nagy connection would certainly be a draw for Hunt, it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense for either him or the Bears. Chicago has Cohen & Howard. If the Bills take a chance on him, anyone espousing the "he's not a process guy" philosophy for this organization would have to rethink that stance. If nothing else, it would show that Beane and McDermott are more open minded than many of us have given them credit for to this point, IMO. If Hunt checks out, sign him. His first contract is likely to be an inexpensive "prove it" deal. If he's put his demons behind him, he's a very talented back who would immediately upgrade the offense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't find the video particularly egregious. Charges were warranted yet not pursued, but it was a forgivable offense IMO. If Nagy wants him, the Bills should probably want him too. Well said, I didn't think the video was bad at all. In fact I thought he showed some restraint. I would love the Bills to go after him but my guess is Pegula's better half will put the kabosh if Beane tries to pursue. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 For anyone claiming Albright isn't a good source: He was on the "Buffalo loves Josh Allen" train from day one of last offseason. He never moved off that stance, no matter how much ***** Bills fans gave him for it. And I watched, and I remember: Bills fans gave him A LOT of ***** for that "scoop". He didn't budge. He was right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSHMEAB Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 1 hour ago, Alphadawg7 said: They said that about Vick, who was LIGHT YEARRRRRRSSSSS worse. Everything was fine. SIGN HUNT! People act like he beat her or something. He made very little contact...no where near the level of Ray Rice or Zeke, or Tyreek Hill, etc etc. Was it excusable, no absolutely not, it was definitely a bad mistake. But, its also not unforgivable if he learns from this mistake and grows as a person. This isnt something he can't "comeback" from. Yeppp. While I prefer to remain pessimistic about the prospects of landing Hunt, time(and lack of future incidents) heal all wounds. The Mike Vick example is spot on. It was a story; until he started performing well and didn't have any issues. Hunt would be great not only as a ballcarrier but as a safety valve for Allen. I'm of the opinion that Shady is toast. Redemption/forgiveness is a pretty big tenet of you know what. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s also the same guy who tweeted “it’s Darnold” and then deleted it only so he could act like he leaked the Browns first pick. OFC he had it wrong anyways. Also, the same guy who tried to get fans to pay for content with unreleased Info on McCoy and then laid out a big nothing burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people agree he’s not Ray Rice and deserves a 2nd shot at some point. I actually agree with this. Being in Chicago with that media might not be the best for him if he wants to lay low and rehabilitate his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC definitely missed him, even though they continued to score points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddaryl Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Hunt can go play for another team. The guy would never see employment in any business I was involved in after that lone incident, and I don't care if he was not charged and let go. I saw the video, and Hunt is not even entering discussion with the Bills IMO. Sorry guys the video is clear, someone will give him his 2nd chance but with the crap the Bills are enduring with sexual misconduct in there offices, Kim Pegula's stature as a champion of woman in the NFL, they sure not going to let a guy with that damning video anywhere near this locker room. AND RIGHTFULLY SO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I'm not going to say yes or no. Hes obviously a very talented football player who made a really dumb(or multiple dumb) decisions. I will say this. Buffalo is the perfect place for him. We constantly hear from former players who left or have played on opposite teams that there isn't much to do in Buffalo(as it pertains to night life). There is obviously a need for the Bills at RB, he can focus on football without the issues a "big" city would offer, and the Bills are an after thought when it comes to the National media. I'm not saying that it wont draw attention, but it will definetely not draw attention for as long as it would if he were to go to a New York, Washington, or Chicago. The Bills have taken shots before with Richie Incognito being the biggest one obviously but I think it might just work. Everyone talks about the struggle of getting the best players here without overspending on big contracts. Well here's a perfect opportunity. Top 5 RB, looking for a 2nd chance, who will come in at a decent price, that will start here for a long time(pending he stays out of trouble). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Hunt is actually from Cleveland and lives there in the offseason. All the trouble he had gotten into has been there or put-in-bay. He is probably better off in another city, but he may prefer to be there.

ExWNYer Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 This makes no sense from Cleveland's perspective, IMO. They were seemingly set at RB.

Alphadawg7 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 DAMN IT! My 2 big fantasy leagues are one player keeper leagues. My keeper in Fantasy Football in both was Kareem Hunt. After Hunt got cut, my new keeper on both teams was Chubb. This screws both of their value up. Hunt keeps screwing me, I think he's doing it on purpose too.
