ndirish1978 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I'd trade for him, but how do we afford this if he's upset about being underpaid? I'm a little worried about trading for players who force themselves off a team over money, we have guys here giving hometown discounts and this appears to be the opposite of that? I'm similarly questioning why I'm worried at all though, so there's that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 First year cap hits can be minimized. If healthy, he’d be an excellent pick up. Whose turn is it to track the Pegula’s jet? And the only reason he might not be worth the 30th pick in this draft is the possible future effects of his neck injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appoo Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Sign and extend him. You can cut his 21 cap hit by half. He is absolutely worth a 1st rounder, though not sure the 30th pick would be enough. You might have to throw in AJE or something Edited March 15, 2021 by appoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appoo Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 2 minutes ago, Aussie Joe said: Injury concern at all? It sounds like a freak injury, and he had successful surgery to fix it. I'm not a doc, but his frame, joints, and musclature all seem fine, as the herniated disc seemingly wouldn't have impacted that - and with a "successful" surgery, you'd think he'd be back to full strength. But I'm sure the Bills would do their due diligence on the injury, surgery and recovery baselines before making a trade that would involve a 1st rounder. That's my assumption of why I'd this to happen - that the injury concerns would be alleviated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks giving up a first rd pick for a guy that you’re about to pay 20m+ a year, but he’s a true difference maker and I’d be all in on this move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeaneBandit Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I'm ready to swing for the fences with this guy folks.....make the trade, do your 3 to 4 cute little restructures that all good teams do but around here we'll get wizard, witch, mastermind etc. whatever.....time to take a serious step forward man.

glazeduck Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Count me among what appears to be the minority in not being interested in Hunter if it's going to cost our 1st rd pick. 2 or 3? Sure, let's do it, but a 1 is too rich in my book... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Possible trade option - give our 1st plus Hughes for Hunter. Restructure his contract to give him more money over the full term while decreasing his cap hit this year. I think we could manage it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston was almost comical (and unnatural), especially for a fluid position like receiver. I meet a bunch of Bills over the years and I measured up fairly good. But I remember meeting Mario and thinking he was a different species. Hunter is in that group. Just looks like God wanted him to be a DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
