Those guys would have a better line on these types of things but I don't believe any of them have said they've heard anything regarding a trade for Gordon. Seems odd to me that they'd cut a high priced RB just to trade for one and then pay him in a similar manner. He’s a lot younger. And he’s not going to get the $ he wants, it appears 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon hasn’t been great since he has come back. I would give a fifth this year that could move up to a fourth if he signs an extension in the off season. That said, I would hate it if someone makes a similar deal for AJ and the Bills miss out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This wouldn't be the first time an agent has randomly linked Buffalo and Detroit to a trade to boost their client's value. There are a lot of proposed trade ideas that make sense but this one doesn't seem to fit. I don’t think it happens unless it’s a 4th or later plus maybe yeldon Edited October 28, 2019 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 11 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: At any rate, it makes sense from where I’m sitting assuming the price is right. He scored 38 TDs between 2016 and the start of this season. He ha averaged 106 scrimmage yards a game in that same span. The Bills lack playmakers. He makes this team better. I agree he makes the team better, I just don't see where he fits in to our team building strategy. We just used a 3rd on Singletary and Gore is carrying the load just fine. We also don't run the ball that much. I do think he'll get traded for a lower pick than peopl think so if we end up doing it I won't be unhappy. Just doesn't fit together for me.

Certainly no enough to justify deals for two RBs I would imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FluffHead Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 If it’s just a mid round pick and a contract, get it done. The cap space is there. This in no way excludes you from still upgrading the passing game, be it now or this off-season, and you get a playmaker to pair with singletary moving forward.
