IF the Giants put Barkley on the Block would Bills fans be interested? I tend to shy away from trading for RBs but I think I would make the call and point to the INJ history to drop the asking price.

Thurman#1 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 RB isn't a big need. G/CB would be great. If we get a good pass rusher, it will probably be from developing him rather than trading for him. Cap is an issue. Yeah, we could fit someone by kicking cans, but they are already down to $15M next year. They don't need to lower that figure any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I expect the Bills will just roll with Sweeney and Morris while Knox heals. We have a bye week followed by an easy slate of games and a broken hand doesn't take too long to heal. No need to make a panic move. I would love to get a legit pass catching RB like Barkley or Sanders. That is the last piece this offense is missing to become unstoppable. Yeah our run blocking is mediocre but also our RBs are slow. Imagine our offense with RB swing passes and screens that have a chance of gaining good yardage. I'm meh on trading for a guard. Norwell isn't going anywhere, Urban Meyer coached him at Ohio State and loves him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had over 2000 yards combined as a rookie with 15 TD's. That was with Manning as his QB. 2nd year he had over 1,400 yards combined with 8 TD's. Last year was his ACL tear and this year being eased back in he hurt his ankle. You saw what he could do when they started to lean on him against NO and then the next week he gets hurt on a fluke play. I'd DEFINITELY go after Barkley if he is made available.

He would only bring a cap hit of $2m this year too but it baloons next year so you would have to restructure. Norwell has a $12M base salary this season. I assume the acquiring team would take on the prorated portion of that figure. If that's the case, his salary is high enough that waiting a week or two would save considerable cap room for a strapped team like Buffalo.

The NFL history it littered with the bodies of RB's who came out the gate and made a big impact and then never lived up to that production again, and thats WITHOUT injuries. Barry Sanders played behind one off the worst OL I have ever seen...still dominant.

Oh there are many "particular" reasons that this might be their best chance at a Lombardi. A conference without a dominant team........even the other top teams like KC and Baltimore have glaring weaknesses. An extremely favorable, easy schedule that a 1st place team rarely sees.........including a division of all non-playoff contenders, two with rookie starting QB's. Still being in the prime rookie QB contract window(yes this year and next Allen is still a low cap hit). It would be difficult to be MORE setup to win a Super Bowl than the Bills are right now. Unless you are the Belichick Patriots and can comfortably lose a bunch of starters every offseason and not miss a beat..........and the Bills have clearly been more of a continuity-based organization.......then you are likely to have windows of very different sizes over the course of a decade even if you have a great QB. Green Bay is an example of a team that has always played the long game with Rodgers and it's cost them. They got that SB very early in his career(2010 season).........catching the NFC in a down year and the only season where the Patriots were clearly the best team in the NFL but didn't reach the SB on a flukey loss to Rex and the Jets. If the latter doesn't happen..........Rodgers may be the Dan Marino of this generation. Edited October 23, 2021 by BADOLBILZ 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills will be a very good team or at least a good team for the foreseeable future. But right now this team they have could be the chance to win a Super Bowl. But the NFL is an odd place when it comes to in season trades. In the NBA, NHL and MLB if you need that last piece for your team you can usually find it. If you need a piece to add to your bench or a little bit of shooting in the NBA you can find it if you are willing to give up a pick or a young player or take back some salary. In the NHL and MLB there are always sellers willing to take back picks and prospects for that one player you feel gives you the edge for a stretch run. But the NFL isn't always filled with sellers at the trade deadline nor is the cap flexible to allow teams to make trades. The Bills have 3 million in cap space that's not a lot to work with on top of that they have no glaring needs that they would sell out for. If there was a piece that they could add I would be all for it, but it just doesn't appear to line up that way at this moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills own Emmanuel Sanders was a recent example in 2019. He helped San Francisco reach the SB and was open on the long throw late in the game that likely wins the game for SF if Jimmy G doesn't air-mail it. As a fan who watched Bill Polian intentionally sit on his hands in the offseasons during the Bills SB run..........stubbornly determined to prove that his team had no weaknesses..........I think we should remember that the most important SB win is the first one. I still remember being astounded that San Fran traded Charles Haley to the Cowboys a week before the 1992 season........arguably the 49ers biggest rival historically even prior to their 90's matchups..........and somehow the Bills weren't in on that outright theft of talent despite their SB window being open. Not only did they not get a defensive identity game changer but Haley ended up helping another team beat them in the SB. But there is this idea among fans that moving some money around to add a difference maker automatically means a lesser team in the future.........and frankly that is neither necessarily true nor is it as important as giving yourself a better chance to a SB in this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of them. The Bills don't have cap space at this very moment only because they don't need it right now. If they need it, they can make it with a modest restructure of a contract or two. Not even remotely talking about a hard salary cap here. Norwell isn't in the last season of his contract but his base salary is high and they are a rebuilding team. Sometimes, usually in fact, offensive guard is one of the easiest positions on the field to replace adequately. The Bills are just caught with their pants down there this year. Creating an opportunity for the Jags to possibly extract a day 2 pick and perhaps a lottery ticket on a guy like Cody Ford in exchange for a player signed to a big contract by different leadership than Urban Meyer that they might not want to pay $20M to as they are schedule to over the next season and a half. These are the kind of situations that result in trades. It's how the Kelvin Benjamin deal went down. It wasn't a walk year deal. Waiting until players are in their walk years is how you get a 5th, 6th or 7th round pick instead of a 3rd or 4th because if the Jags were 2-6 at this point next year teams would be looking at taking Norwell's $7M remaining salary off the Jags hands as doing them a big favor. See the Zach Ertz trade. Ertz answered the offseason questions about his health and viability as a starting TE, the Cardinals were desperate for TE help, and still all Philly got was a 5th and another player who was a late rounder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure who else on the roster they can restructure to free up enough space to accomodate a 7 million dollar a year salary. I am honestly asking since I am not NFL cap expert and maybe there is a way to free up the space. I would easily welcome a trade for Norwell as it lines up with the teams needs and lines up for the Jags to trade him. But the Bills cap and Norwell's salary is just not something that reconciles to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) I’m ok taking the long term/compete year in-year out approach, but you can do that and also make moves … it’s not one or the other. As far as the future goes… We may have the best young QB in the conference with the competition moving forward being Mahomes, Jackson, Herbert and a team built around a dominant RB. Im ok with playing the long term game, as long as we make moves when they make sense. Making a move before the deadline makes sense (as long as there’s a deal to be made) because we have a good bit of cap space that we can get off the books if needed next year … and they’re players that aren’t exactly necessary to continued success.

As far as RB I don't see the need. The team has two young and healthy backs who are producing fairly well. I do think Sanders from Philly would be a slight upgrade but I don't see the organization coughing up a decent pick to modestly upgrade the RB position. Guard is a spot that I wouldn't mind seeing an upgrade. I am not as harsh on Mongo as many here are. I think Mongo is a decent starting caliber guard. But he is average at best. If this team were to somehow find a good guard out on the market that could plug into Mongo's spot that would be great. I think Mongo off the bench is a fantastic add as he can play guard or center better than most bench players. But the only guard on the market possibly is Norwell who has a huge cap number that isn't compatible with the Bills cap situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
