If Singletary is hurt... trade for Gordon

We went 2-0 on the road.

 

Josh Allen is showing enough progress to prove he can win games for us as long as we have a steady O line and a run threat. Gore is a legend, but he is no longer a game breaker. Singletary was the perfect fit for us, but if he is going to be out, we make the move now...

 

Call the Chargers and offer a 2nd round pick. Pay Gordon.

I doubt that'll ever happen.I agree about Gore, to me, with him getting more carries than Singletary, I feel like our offense has been held back. But Gordon would be too expensive for Beane in terms of draft picks. Gordon's MO seems to be too much about money, which is partly why no one wants him

So, trade a pick for a guy out a few weeks maybe that’s in his first year?

 

How about sign a complimentary runningback until he gets healthy?

Ajai,  Blount, Ivory and Murray are still available.

That’s the absolute last thing we should do, unless we trade a 6 or 7th and let him go after the season.  We have way too many guys that need to get paid in the next 2-3 seasons to pay a solid rb 10 mill a year

I think they're slowly working Motor in the lineup .. 

It also creates confusion for defenders , Gore hits that hole as hard as possible! His TD run was awesome! 

Motor is a smaller guy who relies more on vision and patience. He has super quick cutback ability and great hands. It's a tough adjustment for a defense dealing with both of them

I expect more TJ Yeldon if need be. The Bills believed in these three enough to cut Shady and they probably won't fret Singletary being out a couple weeks.

Right, or you sign some dude you can plug and play for cheap.

You do know we have Singletary for longer than this year right, and he is going to be our starter going forward?  Why the hell would we abandon him like that for maybe missing a couple games and burn a high draft pick in the process?

 

I swear, these Chicken Littles are getting worse and worse...

I disagree. Let's spend that money on a WR, a #1 CB or Lo's replacement after the season. Hopefully, DS will be back soon because he has been the best player on this offense with too few carries. J Brown has been very good, but Singletary has been better.

We're fine, just bring up Wade. We still have Yeldon and Gore is a tank. No need to waste assets on a RB when they can be easily found. We can call back one of the guys we cut if they're available.

We CANNOT.  He is 11th man on PS with international exception.  It is more likely that they will pump John Skelton full of roids and make him a RB.

The Bills have 9 draft picks going into the 2020 draft and there are a lot of good RB prospects next year.

 

Gore is gonna retire after this year. Yeldon will be the pass catching RB (if they ever decide to use him in that capacity) and the Bills will draft a running mate for Singletary.

 

There is ZERO need to spend assets on a RB.

I get it, but i just wouldn’t want them tied to a giant RB contract.

If Singleary is going to miss a game or two, just bring in someone to back up Gore and Yeldon.

 

Tbh, I'd almost be tempted to do it now. I don't want Singletary back playing unless he is 100%. It's way too early in his career, to be taking chances with his fitness.

 

If Murphy is still available, bring him back, and do it soon.

This is the answer. Murphy always looked good, just got lost in the numbers crunch. Bring him back in a heartbeat of needed.

use TJ Yeldon on drives at end of games that dont matter?

 

hope DS is fine. Seemed odd he was getting ball in that circumstance. 

Yeldon is a solid player.  they will just plug him in and grab someone Murphy until DS is better.  You don't mess with a hammy.   you rest it

Perfect response.  Besides they would never let him go.
