Would you trade a 1 for Zeke?

Yes. He’s one of the best 10 players in football and complete. The Bills could use a star skill player. He’d fill that role. 

 

 

Yep.  100 percent agree you make this move.

 

The guy is a monster and we'd get his 3 prime seasons then cut him loose....that's how I'd structure the deal.  

 

The Cowboys have a Dak problem not Zeke.  That's why they have this issue.  Allen isnt due for money for 3 more seasons.   The clock has run out on Dak.  

 

Our timeline and window is now.

Sometimes the talent isn’t worth the trouble or the cap space. If he were an adult, then probably at the right price. But he seems to struggle with adulthood. 

These are both true...that's why pro football is so ***** hard to figure out and I am glad I am not a GM.

I don't think many teams would give up a one for Zeke, and I don't think he'd be valued as highly by another team considering Dallas' offense revolves entirely around him. On just about any other team, he's going to be featured in the offense but not as heavily as he is in Dallas. So with that type of situation, I don't think any team would give him a monster deal knowing that he wouldn't have to take as much pressure off their QB as he does with Dak. 

 

That said, I'm sure Beane and his team would discuss it if it got out there that he was on the trade market, but ultimately I think they'd pass because Zeke is, for lack of a better term, kind of an a-hole with an ego problem who likely wouldn't fit in well with the whole process here.

I don't know what people's obsession for a first round pick is.  You can have a pick that has a 50/50 shot of being a bust basically or you can have a guaranteed stud.  If I can afford it, I'm taking the stud.  He's also at an optimal RB age to give a deal where you are not on the hook for much money after 3 or 4 years and you get 3 or 4 years of prime age performance.  He runs great, he blocks great, he catches balls great, he does it all.  Not to mention if the pick is a bust you are wasting millions in cap on a bad player.

I would first try to trade either a combo of 2nds and 3rds, but i would trade that first if i had to, like if there was another team in mix. Hes got atleast 4 years left, and look how easy he has made it on dak and that team.

 

i mean dak is complete dog poo and he has tricked some people to believe that dak is worth 30 mil per year lmfao

I wouldn’t..but it seems things are getting pretty toxic between Zeke and Jerry in Dallas just curious if you’d be willing to trade a 1 for him and then give him a contract extension 

He's an amazing talent, but a 1st, plus an very expensive contract to go with a line that still isn't so good.  Don't think it makes sense. Any high picks or money the Bills spend should be on the OLine if anywhere.

Hell naw! Shady would be worth a #1 if he ran behind the Dallas o-line

So, your statement brought a trade option to me. Why not trade Shady to Dallas, along with a 2nd or 3rd for Elliot. We sign him to a contract where we can let him go after year 3(when Allen is due)? With the revamped line and upgraded wr group, this is a guy who would be way more productive than Shady. Shady might have Value to Dallas, based on them having, arguably the best o line. I don't think Dallas bites, but it might be worth a shot. You know, kick the tires. Just a thought.

How about we don't?

I think Dak getting a big contract is a mistake. 30 mil?! nah.

Guess it depends on how much Jerruh hates Shady for being an ex Eagle.

Its great to have players that fight with the owner. Yes, send him our way...

 

the pegulas are hardly involved in any of the operations. they leave it up to the front office and coaches to sort ***** out.

 

unlike jerry who not only wants to make all the decisions, but also wants to be KNOWN for making all of them.
