I mean if we are seriously trading for him, wouldnt just giving them Singletary be the plan? Because if we were getting Gordon its to sign him long term which means no use for Devin. But logic tells me we aren't trading for Gordon thankfullly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would still have Yeldon, and could pick up a guy off the street. I'm not advocating for the trade that's for sure, just pointing a few things out. I'd much rather continue to invest $$$$ elsewhere other than RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking he gets around $10M a year. Even though everyone has gotten used to saying RBs are a dime a dozen, it isn't really true for good backs. He may not be elite, but he's better than most of the starters int he league I'd wager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backs are a dime a dozen line is an overused cliche Yes for 1-3 game incriminates, a low tier back in the right scheme will look good. That low tier back will not produce for 5-10 seasons Most of the top backs in the league were drafted in the top 3 Rounds because teams saw their talent From Zeke to Gurley to Barkley to AP.. even Gordon and Kareem Hunt.. from Lynch to even Shady and Singletary RBs with special talent usually are not allowed to slide too far down the draft board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game changing RBs worth investing in with this passing league are absolutely NOT common. I think we might have one of those in Singletary.

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I can't see Beane spending the money, draft picks, or giving away any of the current players for Melvin Gordon. No question that he is good when he is on the field. The problem is staying healthy and on the field. I can't see anyone paying him the money that he wants.

JerseyBills Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Can't Lie. I'd love to have him in the RB rotation , but I'd have him as a 1 year rental , see how it works out and if he's a long term fit. Obviously the compensation has to be reasonable. Could see Beane throwing a 3rd like he did with KB. Would be a nice piece for a team that has a legit shot at a deep playoff run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
