BuffaloBillyG Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 If we traded for CMC and Barkley maybe we could make 1 Franken RB that can stay healthy. Or play 1 and use the other for spare parts? Not sure which is better. In Beane we Trust. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I'd say no. See what we can get in draft or find another good RB that won't come at the price Mcaffrey would. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 3 minutes ago, aristocrat said: I'd start with them sending us a second rounder I remember when RBs had trade value. When we traded away a used-up Simpson in 1978, we got: 1978 2nd round draft pick (DE Scott Hutchinson) 1978 3rd round pick (WR Danny Fulton) 1979 1st round pick (LB Tom Cousineau) 1979 4th round pick (DE Ken Johnson) (aka Pinto Ron) 1980 2nd round pick (RB Joe Cribbs) What a great trade for the Bills! Joe Cribbs was a really talented multipurpose back for us. And, of course, Cousineau turned into Jim Kelly. Obviously, there's a durability issue but it's amazing you could potentially get someone of McCaffrey's talent for a 2nd rounder. Though I wouldn't want his contract. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I’m inclined to immediately say no to this, but the Bills do seem to have a really strong strength & conditioning / player-care set up. Still more than likely against this, or Barkley for that matter, but I could see it working here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sven233 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 If there is a way that Carolina can eat the contract and we can get him on the cheap, sure. But there is no way we're putting that contract on the books. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCofNC Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 They screwed up big time, like Brock Oswieler big. Their cap hit is $14M for next year, then $17M, 17M and 13M, FOR A RUNNING BACK, who hasn’t stayed healthy. if they trade him, the dead cap is 26M, so I really doubt this is the year they are going to do that. He’s relatively affordable at $8M in 2022 and only 1M is guaranteed in 2023, so that part is doable for another team, but if you keep him you are paying essentially $12M a year for him after next year.. tough sell. If he could stay healthy he’s worth it, but that’s a huge if. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blainorama5 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 His injury habit is a hard one to break. (sounds like a Chicago song) Great talent, good character guy obviously, probably would fit in at OBD, but not sure you give away the farm for a guy who has a well established history of not being available.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Whatever the price, I’d be interested. Our pick is (hopefully) going to be high anyway. Nobody we get there will be close to as good as Mccafrey. That guy is a top 5 (non qb) player in the nfl and would bring this offense to inconceivable levels. It will absolutely be worth it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard pass Actually, the fact that he has been out so much the last 2 seasons (possibly from overwork in his first 2-3 seasons) could be an ironic positive. What's he played, 5 games combined in the last 2 seasons? In McCaffrey's case, I am less worried about the tread on the tires and more concerned about the nature of the injuries themselves and whether or not he has made a full recovery. Also, as a team, I would hope they would research McCaffrey's commitment to playing. He seems to be a good character guy by all accounts -- but is he the sort that will refuse to play if he is less than 100%? If he checks out medically I would be all for sniffing around to see what the price would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the 5 years he’s been playing, he’s only had 2 1,000 yard seasons with 2019 being his best season other than that he’s never rushed for more than 400 yards. He’s not even a top 10 back anymore. I’m not sure if we take a chance on him unless Carolina was willing to accept a late 5th to 6th round pick. Also he’s got a hefty contract that would need to be re worked before we traded for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 well if this is true, if, then the Panthers are tired of their best player, assuming its due to his injury problems, that says alot about what they think of him. zero guarantee those problems cease if he gets moved. i for one dont want to see an often injured high dollar guy at RB no matter how talented he is, behind this current O Line.

FilthyBeast Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 On one hand it's easy to say no thank to any more Panther cast offs, but McCaffrey certainly is a special talent but he's damaged good at this point. So any trade would have to be conditional in playing time/staying healthy, etc. Maybe something like a 4th rounder that could turn as high as a 2nd.

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) I'd trade no higher than a 3rd or 4th for him. Or Zach Moss and a 5th.
