Kim Pegula being on board with bringing on a woman abuser doesn't make any sense to me at all.

I guess I am in minority here but he is so unlikable that I don't want him no matter how good he is. I want to cheer for guys I like.

Njoku actually performed pretty well last season, albeit in limited snaps.  He really improved his blocking.  I’m sure that any team trading for him would require signing him to an extension as part of the deal.  Heard he might be heading to NE for Gilmore, but that might be dead now with NE signing a TE.

 

Hunt is an elite back.  He’d easily be worth a day 2 pick especially considering that he signed an extension and has very reasonable salaries.

 

 

I don't know the exact definition of "elite" back.........but what Hunt has done the past two season in Cleveland has not been anywhere close to that.    

 

When I watch him I keep expecting him to do more with the opportunities.   To make those plays he made in KC.  

 

Decades of watching football tells me when you see that over a couple hundred carries.......that's what you got.   

 

From an analytical standpoint.......4.2 yards per carry represents exactly "replacement" level for a RB.

 

His Y/R numbers in the pass game are way down from KC too. 

 

I like Njoku.........I'm a Hurricanes fan.......saw all of his games........but he's a tough fit on this roster as an "upside" option.........especially when Dawson Knox is kinda' like a rich mans version of him already.    They need something different more than they need two similar ones.

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

I’d be less willing to dismiss it if there were at least some sort of finding that he did something wrong, but that’s just me.

Hunt has averaged 4.2 in BOTH his seasons in Cleveland.

 

Not just last year.

 

Hence the 2 year averages.

 

Again.........have the 10 year olds do your math smartazz.:lol:

you never said JUST CLEVELAND.  Stop making it personal. don't attack the person attack the topic. compare ONE YEAR or compare career. thats how it works.

I would rather just draft a RB with speed. I guess if they want like a 6th rounder and Singletary I'd be okay with it.

That's where I am at.

 

Joe Marino did a mock draft and said there should be a speedster back available in the 5th round for the Bills, can't remember the kids name.

 

Plus taking on Hunt= more money against the cap.

He can still get quickly to the edge.  Honestly that is all I care about at this point - someone who can make the defense run side to side - McKenzie is okay at that but he runs the same play every time for the most part (either the quick pitch or the fake quick pitch).  Hunt adds more versatility in that he can run up between the tackles, catch passes out of the backfield etc.  But the basic role is the same - move the linebackers side to side to open up the middle of the field a bit.

 Do yourself a favor and read a post thru before responding with snark.    I said Hunt has averaged a measly 4.2 ypc in his past two years......which is since he came back from his high profile suspension to join the Browns. 

 

You read it wrong and responded with snark.........I gave it back to you.   If you are going to half read the post,  inaccurately complain about the context and talk sh*t........ then don't whine when you get it back and your feelings won't get hurt.😘

IMO this should be locked. Unsubstantiated rumor from a Twitter nobody that everyone's running away with like it came from Schefter.

Rumors are just that.. rumors. If they could be substantiated they wouldn't be a rumor. Why can't you let everyone have their fun and play the way if game.

Bills arent actually doing anything today (so far) so we might as well speculate on something

Because it's ridiculous when you have a million people running around talking about it like it's a legitimate thing. Seeing comments about other RB's in separate threads saying "if the Hunt trade doesn't happen..."

 

Makes no sense from a cap or "process" standpoint to begin with. And it's all based on a guy who had 200 followers to start the day. It's misinformation of the highest degree until you hear it from someone, anyone, that actually matters.

Beane usually doesn't strike until like 8:30 or later. Every year so far the earliest agreed deal was announced at 8:30. So don't expect anything until night time. Doesn't mean he won't do anything tonight though.

FWIW, during last year’s tampering period, Brandon Beane made his big moves at night: March 17th: - AJ Klein: 9:55pm - Stefon Diggs: 10:34pm - Mario Addison: 11:19pm March 18th: - Quinton Jefferson: 8:28pm - Vernon Butler: 8:42pm Beane likes to wait things out. #Bills

You're a lot of fun at parties I bet. 

 

Just ignore any threads that say the words rumor in the title and then you won't have to read about it.  We get to talk about it in our rumor thread and you get to be in other substantiated threads talking about the same crap we have been talking about all off season because we ran out of new stuff outside of unsubstantiated rumors after the first week of the offseason.

I don't believe this rumor one bit.

In a year in which the Bills are already without a 4th round pick and are cap-strapped, Beane's gonna trade away an early pick to obtain an expensive player at a non-premium position -- a position in which he recently invested two 3rd round picks, no less? 

I don't buy it.

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.

I'm in the same boat.  It was a ridiculously overblown reaction to a moment of drunken buffoonery (on the part of everyone involved).  This isn't Ray Rice cold cocking his fiancee or Tyreek Hill trying to murder his wife.  I hate abusive guys and want nothing to do with them on my team, but I just don't view Hunt as one based on what we saw on that hotel video.

If wanting to talk about credible information and shutting down obvious fake news on a place I go to for Bills news makes me no fun - I'm cool with that.

 

If we're just running with whatever because "nothing's going on", why not go balls to the wall? I've got a couple hundred Twitter followers - should I start a "rumor" we're in the market for Christian McCaffery?
