Perhaps they feel the need to free up this money so that they can spend it somewhere else.

PFT is an aggregate and sometimes they have their own sources. They don’t run with “rumors” like this. In this case, these guys at PFN seem to have a mole with the dolphins and a mole with the Jets based on the stuff they’ve put out. Someone is telling them, as with allbright, that the Bills are involved. To what degree, we don’t know. I'll buy that. Thanks for the clarification!

KOKBILLS Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Just a pure hypothetical...I have no idea of anything that is going on... Just for fun...I was thinking... Let say the Bills offer Shady, Zay and a mid round pick...Maybe they even throw in Mike Love.. The Texans counter with Shady, Foster, and a mid round pick... Am I the only one that winces at the thought of giving up Foster?...Because if I'm the Texans...that's the Bills WR I want... I don't know...maybe it's just me...?

The Wiz Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 So speculation on speculation here, if a trade include either foster or Zay, would that put Duke on the team for sure? Just curious what the feeling is if it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense for Texans to get cheap young DL in return. Lawson, McCoy, and WR either Zay, or Foster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe whatever makes you happy, but I'm sticking with "wishful thinking". He put the responsibility on the other person, not on himself as a reporter. I have no idea what is going to happen but I do know when someone is playing word games, regardless of how subtle they may be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 42 minutes ago, Bockeye said: Yes - see teams with smothering defense and average offense, they have won their share of SB’s. We could wait until we have the greatest show on turf but I’m not holding my breath. I think our O will be at least average to above average this year (with an above average run game). That certainly has happened. In fact, of the last 25 Super Bowls 5 have been won that way. Four #1 defenses and one #2 defense with average or worse offenses won. But only one of those happened in the last 1O years - the 2015 Broncos with the #1 defense. That’s probably because of the somewhat recent rule changes. I’d love to have a dominant defense, but a quality offense is more important than ever in the NFL. On that note, the Bills defense was plenty good last season. Still, I am all for getting Clowney if it doesn’t substantially hinder our ability to improve our offense. I don’t want to see a first round pick as part of the package. As for where our offense stands, I do think they’ll be lucky to be average. I expect them to be a little below. Much more needs done there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have had a love and hate relationship with this trade idea throughout the offseason. But...fast forward to today, and I am really for it now that we have seen everything shake out so far with camp and preseason. Adding him to this DL would instantly make this defense one of the best in the league, something that could help carry us deep into the playoffs. We still have great defensive potential without him, but with him it just seems like a certainty. We have WR's to spare if Houston truly wants a WR in this deal, and Zay or Foster would make easy sense here with guys like Duke and McKenzie having strong preseasons. Personally, I think Zay might make more sense for Houston in terms of the type of WR and more versatile WR Zay is. Singletary is too good to keep off the field and Yeldon has really played well in the preseason. We flat out have a log jam at RB, sending them McCoy makes a lot of sense for both teams at this point. Adding Clowney means we can also easily include Shaq or Murphy if they want to get back a DE too. Send them a 4th round pick plus McCoy, Zay, and either Shaq or Murphy. I would love this trade! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clowney is a guy who may never lead the league in sacks. That's fine with me. He impacts the game more than a sack artist. He f's up much more plays than his stats show. The defense doesn't have that guy on defense that consistently does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
