Bills a rumored suitor for Kareem Hunt trade

As others have said I just think it's too much for potentially above average talent. I don't like him. He's no Nick Chubb, that's for sure.

He was the NFL rushing leader in 2017, which was his rookie season.  He is an elite NFL back.  He just happens to be on one of only a few teams where he isn’t easily the #1 RB.

I would give the Browns our 2nd round pick for BOTH Hunt and Njoku.  
 

I mean our 2nd rounder this year is only 2 picks earlier than what Tyrod was traded for.  It’s practically a 3rd rounder.
 

Id do this in a heartbeat.  
 

 

I think you could do it for a 3rd. 

 

Cleveland is in a bind w Njoku as it is, they paid big for Hooper and drafted one.  I believe they would like an out.

And RBs are being devalued every year.  And having to pay one a decent amount reduces their value.

 

Maybe we could send over Singletary and a pick for Hunt and Njoku and both front offices could save face over some small draft snafus.

He was seasons ago. Is he still? People are in here acting like Kareem Hunt could change the franchise. Do people really think he's a top 10 back or something? Did the time change send me back to 2017?

Kareem Hunt is just about to enter his prime... If he comes here with the WR talent we have he would be extremely dangerous b/c he is a huge mismatch.

Really? Why do you think that? It's possible I guess, but I don't see it. Lol, knowing you this post was sarcastic and I missed it. Anyway, if serious I would imagine they'd get much of anything for him.

He pushed a guy who turn intentionally shoved her. Then later on when he had a chance to really do some damage to the girl he took his foot and just knocked her over.  If the Bills looked into his situation and are interested, that’s good enough for me.

Njoku did next to nothing last year and has a $6M+ cap hit............that would require some major payroll restructures to create.........so what are you going to do?   Sign him to an extension?   What would it be worth for someone who has been a bust so far?   And if it's not an aav of big $ per year why would he want to do that going into his walk year where he is looking to break out?    I just don't see how Njoku is a fit in a trade scenario.    And Hunt certainly isn't worth a second or third round pick.

Hear, hear. Precisely my thought on this too--I'm not saying these guys have to be perfect in order to be "rootable," but for the love of pete, not putting your hands (or feet) on a woman the way this dude did, shouldn't be too high a bar to keep. 

 

Couldn't agree more, HUDS.

 

Heck, I am not even the most likable person in the world.  Handsome, dashing, funny, charming, athletic, and poetic...every reason in the world to dislike me.

 

...but I am not a cad and I can't seem to wrap my head around cheering for this guy.

 

I am a culinary genius, as well, but I digress.

Only 25 and yet firmly on track to have a more disappointing career than Larry Johnson.

Larry Johnson? What a one year wonder that dude was. I remember the very first fantasy football league I ever did in 06, the guy picking 1st overall took Larry Johnson since he went off the year before. The next guy took Shaun Alexander with Tomlinson still on the board. The guy picking 3rd took LT. I couldn't believe the first two guys made that mistake. I always thought Larry Johnson and Alexander were overrated. Safe to say, the guy that pick LT won the league as that was LT's record breaking 31 TD season. It's crazy looking back

That is such a bad take.

 

What he did was stupid and unacceptable..........the argument is whether or not he's paid for it...........and he was punished and served his punishment.

 

That's the reasoning.......not that what he did wasn't so bad.

Haha I loved Larry Johnson almost as much as Priest Holmes! Felt like a good spot for an LJ reference, even though he's apparently turned into an absolute insane person per his twitter account.

Probably about to give Chubb a big contract and allocation of resources says paying two RBs is no bueno. They would be wise to draft one to play behind Chubb. 

 

Hunt isn't on that big of a contract? Why would they look to get rid of their dynamic duo which was the catalyst of their offense? Just doesn't make sense.

If there truly is interest in Hunt, I don't see us carrying 3 RB's.

Maybe the Bills could include Singletary in the trade.  That way Cleveland gets a cheap rookie contract backup and the Bills don't carry three.  And it could decrease the pick needed to be given to Cleveland.

Does Hunt play special teams?  I'm assuming you are talking about Taiwan Jones as the 3rd.

We will have 3 RB's on the active roster but not 3rd that can't play special teams.

Not sure about Hunt playing ST. I don't think he does. Could be wrong though.

Controversial take: the incident involving Hunt was WAY overblown and not nearly as bad as people made it out to be. The punishment he got was a result of the NFL trying to make up for the ray rice debacle. 

 

I would have no problem with him on the bills but I'm not trading a high draft pick or paying him a lot of money, same stance on RBs in general.

Because they are probably looking at extending Chubb now - who had been on his rookie contract.  They will probably look to back up Chubb with a lower cost option.  A lot of teams don't even like to pay one RB, much less 2.  And Chubb is their home grown guy who they will keep.

You mean the incident that he was never even charged for?

Just citing ownership might not readily dismiss lady kickers as easily as you.
