BillsFanForever19 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Unverified, under 1k followers, misspells Gordon. I'm a big fan of Gordon, but this doesn't exactly scream credible. 4 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Also saw this one, around the same time, fwiw: Quote @TerezPaylor There are about four teams in play for Melvin Gordon's services, a source tells me. Teams were anticipating more cap space so the structure of the deal — and getting creative — will go a long way here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Can’t see us out-bidding Tampa. They have to go all out with Brady. And they need a RB. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 It would be nice to have at least 2 very good RB’s to share the load. Gordon is a star RB, it depends what he is asking for money wise 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two days ago did it seem to be Beane's MO to trade a 1st rounder and 3 more picks for a veteran WR who missed practice and showed up his QB this year? Countless people here said Beane won't do that, he'll stick to the process, he'll build through the draft. Reality is Beane is aware enough to know that the time for the Bills to go for it is now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Another problem with signing of Gordon......carries We are really gonna want to take Devin S. off the field for the amount of carries that it is going to take to make Melvin Gordon happy and Do we even want to do that? Devin is special.....we want him ON the field Sure...its nice to have two star running backs but that can also affect a locker room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Devin Singletary is electric. An absolute weapon, but he isn’t a workhorse in a league that doesn’t have many workhorses at that position. A guy like Gordon rotating in with Singletary gives us a running/receiving threat at all times out of the backfield. With Diggs and Brown on the outside, Beasley and Knox underneath, and then a RB potentially flexing out... that’s a lot to process for the opposing defense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
