Behindenemylines Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I’m not saying I want this or anything but if we were to grab OBJ, how in the heck would we need to change the projected roster to fit him in? we are pretty loaded and seeing promise among our group of rookies. Even with Crowder having a bit of a slump in game 1 I project him on the 53. I don’t see room for OBJ without blowing up something. What am I missing? Looking to better minds than mine on this, because I do believe it’s very interesting for the SB push later in the season. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireChans Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 We would have to trade some money for his services…… because he’s an FA. 8 19 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would come on a cheap deal sense he's only be playing the last quarter of the season plus playoffs. Wouldn't make sense if WR corp is healthy and firing on all cylinders. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I don’t understand how signing OBJ and releasing one player to make room for him would in any way be considered “blowing up” their roster. Help me out here 2 2 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I think most of this speculation works on the assumption that OBJ would be willing to play on a low dollar 1 year deal to prove he's healthy, have a shot at another ring, and then take another bite at the apple next off-season. I don't think much of anyone is looking to throw money or term at OBJ as he currently sits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like your use of “an” before “FA”. I’m a bit of a stickler for these things. Also thiink your thinking is spot on. Go Bills! That is all.

We aren’t gonna cut Josh or Tre to make room for OBJ. Second, OBJ is injured and you could IR him and not even need a roster spot until he returns. At which point someone may be hurt already. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyNoodles Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I wouldn’t think they’d want to sign him until he’s totally healthy and that will be later if it happened at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be a good addition down the line but do you need to lock him in now to prevent others from grabbing him or is it general practice to wait for more rehab progress After the Watson contract things seem to have gone a bit off the rails 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 It would involve another team signing him and then the Bills trading for him. You're welcome. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K D Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 They will probably wait to see how things play out with their roster and with his recovery. They aren't signing anyone anytime soon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
