You announced this so early and then when he gets traded it takes you this long to chime in?! What have you got another life outside this board?! ? You nailed it, Alpha. Cheers to you. You had to sense something after the Pats game, too. as I said before, good luck to Zay, but more importantly good luck to the Duke. EDIT: dammit, now if Alpha says, “The Bills will trade Ed Oliver”, I have to give it proper attention!

Agree, but that won't make him any less the whipping boy based on how many negative comments have been posted, particularly since they will no longer have Zay to bash.

It wasn't his fault however, that he was drafted in the 2nd round. He came here, worked hard, and fought through injuries. I wish him the best. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiders win the Super Bowl In the interest of total disclosure: Peterman running on the last play of the first half, stumbles, ball takes crazy bounces into Zay’s hands. Numerous strokes and coronaries in the venue lead Goodell to cancel the second half, declares Oakland the winner. To appease outraged football fans everywhere, the New England Patriots are awarded compensatory draft picks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, off by 5 weeks counts as nailed, it does not. At any rate, I've been strongly disappointed by Zay myself, but to my eyes he could play in the NFL - block and run routes and catch. He wasn't a good WR, a #1 or #2 but he does belong on an NFL roster IMO. This is going to sound snarky but it's sincere: I hope I and the fans who are expressing the "good riddance" "street FA could play better" "PS guys could play better" "McKensie and Foster can play better" sentiments don't regret the move later this season if the injury bug bites our WR corps. I like much of what I see from McDermott and Beane but I think their offensive side depth decisions aren't always on point. RB would be an example this season so far. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoTier Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 11 hours ago, BuffAlone said: wow! a 5th for Zay. The wizard is wise If I read the OP correctly, it's a 2021 pick, which I think is considered equivalent to a round lower in the next dra, so a fifth in 2021 would be considered equivalent to a sixth rounder in 2020, so not so "wow!" especially since the Bills spent a 2nd and a 3rd on him in 2017.

A no brainer for Raiders if they keep him for 2 years. His contract expires at end of 2021 and if he signs elsewhere they could still get a comp pick for him in that draft. That would possibly make up for what they gave up for him. Edited October 8, 2019 by freddyjj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 In hindsight, we shouldn’t have probably traded up for Zay and just taken JuJu or Cooper Kupp. ? for the price, it’s a solid gamble for the Raiders. Minus trying to jump out of a window and fight his brother naked, he seems like a good dude. And even though it was a terrible pick, good on the Bills for realizing and getting something for him before he had zero trade value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely right, Hap, on the getting cut. However, that is a typo on my part. Alpha actual said he would be traded. If you hit a bullseye a few weeks later...you nailed it...you still hit a bullseye. ...if it is 2020, maybe not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
