Rigotz Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Joe Shoen remarked at the combine today that he's open to anything when it comes to Saquon Barkley. The Bills certainly have the Beane-Shoen connection going for them. What would you trade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 A 6th because I would want him as a one year rental only. I would make the trade knowing I was going to let him walk after this season, no matter how well he does. Zero interest in giving a RB, any RB, a big contract. 6 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Hmmm, not sure I would trade for him at all. Would have to know more in depth about his health but as of now I would not risk it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) I started a thread on this a month ago and proposed sending Moss and a pick so the pick wouldn't have to be as high. We have some players that I believe Giants could have interest in like Moss or Singletary, for obvious reasons where one of them can be looked on as a guy who can come over and compete to start in his place. Or even Cole Beasley, also on a one year deal so he is off the books next year but gives them a value piece to help Daniel Jones (or whoever starts this year) in Dabolls system that can be an underneath safety blanket and 3rd down ace who knows the system already. And if we trade Cole, then the salaries almost wash each other out too, so makes it easier to take on Barkleys salary this year. Or of course Beane could try and work a new deal ahead of the trade, a short term one thats good for Barkley to try and reset his market in a better situation and gives us a talent at a price we can afford as Josh's deal starts to kick in next year. I thought then, and still do now, that Barkely to the Bills is a realistic scenario. Edited March 1, 2022 by Alphadawg7 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A torn ACL isn't somethig guys commonly come back to 100% in their first year back. Often its not until the next season do they start to regain their full form again. I wouldn't write Barkley off yet. Edited March 1, 2022 by Alphadawg7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthymcnasty08 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) In this offense? Comeback Player of the Year potential. He has been playing with a bottom 3 OL last 2 years. Absolute dog sh-t. Has the entire skillset and knows he has yet to prove out. He is a "process" player....peak condition,professional, smart, driven. Whatever the cost turns out to be [within reason] , he will be worth it. Edited March 1, 2022 by filthymcnasty08 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Giants say no then move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Have to listen to what Beane said at his year end, and again on the E Wood Podcast. He isnt interested in giving up valuable resources for players on short term deals. You cant give up more than a 5th for a guy who on a one year deal who has played less than 60% of his games the last three years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would go as high as a 3rd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont disagree to limit your risk exposure. I think Moss and a 5th...or if they have cap concerns, do Beasley and a 5th because then the contracts almost cancel each other out in terms of the cap hit.

mushypeaches Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I see this as like the Brock Osweiler pick from a few years ago where the Texans actually GAVE the Browns a pick to get them to take the player and the big bloated contract. I know that's oversimplifying what happened with that trade, but I'm not giving up assets to take on that albatross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 None. They can't afford to pay money on the RB position. Singletary, Moss, and a rookie are fine. Keep addressing the lines and spend your dollars blocking. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToGoGo Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 It all depends on what the team doctors say. They would know best here. If they feel he can get back to All-World status, then you take a chance on getting a HOF level talent at RB, especially where that's an area that is holding the team back. As for the $7.2M, if he's healthy then he's worth every penny. He's the Thurman we've been looking for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not an "albatross" and it isn't comparable to Brock Osweiler at all. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
