Rigotz Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 The value of Ertz at his current salary is a 4th at best. Bills probably walked away after offering a 5th. There’s a reason nobody else wanted to trade for him. Anyone talking about anything close to 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round value only knows the name Ertz and hasn’t followed the production dip. He’s not the same and he’s expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His $8.5M salary is not guaranteed so I think the Iggles are probably keeping him this season. (Either that or they are really screwing him around and I don’t think that’s the case.) They’ve cleared enough space that they don’t have to get rid of him so unless they get something decent for him they’ll probably just sit tight. With his contract situation and coming off a down year I do not see any team making it worth it to the Iggles to trade him. It’s sort of a no man’s land situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Although I’d rather have Ertz than Njoku, I think we should open up talks with both teams and hopefully drive the costs down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a pretty athletic downhill runner and upgrade to our TE room? 🧐 We have that guy in Knox, it’s getting the passes caught that are the issue.

Logic Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 6 minutes ago, Virgil said: Day 3? Wow. I’d be all over that Im guessing their asking price has come down from a 3 to a 4. We don’t have a 4. If they were only asking a 5, the deal would’ve already been done, imo. In the end, I bet he ends up reuniting with Reich and Wentz in Indy in exchange for a 4. Thats all guesswork on my part, but I’m stickin to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 If you can get this guy for a 3rd or higher..just do it.

Older, injury concerns, and in last year with high cap hit. A 5th is my final guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BornAgainBillsFan Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Any other year, and Ertz would be possible. But I think the cap hit just doesn't work right now. That's why they went with the cheaper option of Hollister, instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam727 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Would you rather have Edmunds next year or Ertz for the next two years? Looking at the Bills' salary cap I'm not sure how they fit Edmunds 5th year option, resign next year's free agents, and fit Ertz's contract. I'd still trade a day 3 pick, I'd rather have Ertz.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely not an expert on that stuff but Beane didn't sound too optimistic that the cap would go up that much next year in the press conference he gave the other day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
