He's a good player but he's on the downswing. No surprise at his age. Not worth trading for him to be a 1-year rental. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 33 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: And yet cap space isn’t a concern whatsoever..... Bills need to make moves for guys like this one with FA approaching....at times I fear McBeane are too conservative. He’s better than anything this team has at pass rusher..... come on. Don’t we say this every offseason when we lose out on a FA/don’t make a trade? Shouldn’t you be more angry that your Jets didn’t trade for him? They need him more than the Bills do. That 5th they sent for Osemele last year at this time that was supposed to be so smart might have stung too much to swing again. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 So, for all the complaints about $15 million in cap space: Cut Trent Murphy and use his $9.8 million in savings to pay two-thirds of that hit. Would anyone say we woundn't be a better team in 2020 by paying that net $5 million more for Calais???... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want Clowney, but I'd rather have him than Campbell. I'd rather have Phillips and Lawson back. For two of the three years. Not last year. I would love to have Clowney. As for Phillips/Lawson, it’s questionable whether or not Phillips is a starting caliber player in this league and Shaq is just adequate. Again, Campbell is arguably the best in the league at his position. Incredible run defender and generates a lot of pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would pay him a two year deal at 16 a year but I assume he gets more with at least 40 guaranteed and that is a lot for an old tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consistent pressure and being the #1 DE league-wide against the run at the same time? Yeah, who needs that. 2019 : Campbell--6.5 sacks and 25 quarterback hits Jerry Hughes--4.5 sacks, 9 quarterback hits Trent Murphy--5.0 sacks, 9 quarterback hits Edit: to put those QB hits in perspective, here are some 2019 comparables: ChandlerJones--26 Aaron Donald--24 JJ Watt--21 Yannick Ngakoue--15 Trent Murphy's good enough...

The other issue with Campbell as other's have eluded to...I think Baltimore are going to have to pay him for at least a new 3 year deal which is a significant cap commitment for any teams long term plan. I could be wrong. But, a 3 year deal at his price will change our long term plan which the Bills FO is currently executing very well. If Campbell plays out the one year deal its a great deal for Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I would of done this trade 100% but ya never know.. this could be one of those times Beane tried and maybe Campbell didn’t wanna play here, or only wanted to play for a couple teams he felt he would get a Super Bowl chance with. He’s at the end so maybe Jacksonville tried his favorite teams first. It’s possible with the low compensation they got. Either way he’s a raven and we’re on to the next recruit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Joshin' Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I remember the name wringing last year when Ziggy was not signed. Age may catchup this year or may not.
