Will the Bills trade a player(s) for draft picks today?

I actually think the opposite is possible. I could see the Bills trading a pick for Agholor or Sanu.

 

Exactly.

[Magox]

If they do, Lawson would be the most likely.

I don't think Shady is going anywhere.  Beane made it very clear in his PC that Shady is the starting RB.  I think the Bills have to show show trust towards players..otherwise no one will come to Buffalo in FA.

 

On the other hand Shaq Lawson may be on the trading block.

Agree with this 100%. That said, I am thinking Shady had better compete in preseason if he wants to stay.

I say no just because trading players is far less common in a draft than trading picks only.  It could happen.  I'm just not expecting it.

I agree and I hope we keep him.....but if there’s anyone that will be traded, I think it’s him.  

 

So you don’t think players will come to Buffalo via free agency if we trade shady?  Lol

I see shady being traded in preseason if another team has a major injury at RB.

How about a fifth and a player, like Shaq, you may have decided you don't want to pay. 

 

Why would it be good value to decide we don't want to pay anyone who has shown they can play in the league, for a 4th round player?

 

It's not like we're short on cap space.

Because he is likely not worth the fifth year option money. I'm torn on him, and I'm sure the Bills are, too, after they said they are not going to decide on the option until after the draft (meaning if we take a DE or Edge rusher in the early to mid rounds we are likely not going to take the option.

Just about everything they have done this off-season that would impact Shady suggests Shady is not going to be on the team this year.

 

 

 

 

Only time will tell I guess but I think Shady has a pretty solid year as a Bill.

Quite possible, but Beane is a friggen Warlock at this game. I think he has more rabbits up his sleeve. That said, we’re somewhat overstocked at a few positions; Bodine, Lawson, ANY of the recent FA OL sans Morse, Murphy. 

a little late for me to vote, but after them stocking up on rbs, i wouldn't have ruled out a surprise shady trade...although i don't think it's wise, but definitely thought shaq coulda bought us a decent pick in a trade up or other scenario....especially when we left ourselves with no 4ths.

i agree, he just is not a pocket crusher and paying him to set the edge on 1st and 2nd downs doesn't make sense. however, i do wonder what it would look like kicking him inside with oliver on passing downs.  i would have traded him for a 4th this year and a 2020 3rd in a heartbeat.

 

he claims he's much stronger than this time last year and imo if he has any value, it's kicking him inside. i hope trent murphy comes back as a monster. i don't think beane is done with his magic beanes yet. i'm expecting him to have a major pass rush move somewhere/somehow.
