Augie Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Just now, Chaos said: People act like first round picks are always for Josh Allen and never for Aaron Maybin. If Barkley could be obtained, along with a contract extension, for a first it would be an easy decision. It would be an easy NO for me. I don’t want a super expensive RB, especially a guy who is always hurt. We need 1st round picks for cheaper talent, guys like Rousseau who will produce and bring our cap cost down for 5 years. No interest in an expensive addition who likely (according to history) will spend lots of time on IR and visiting the trainers. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKBillFan Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 There's no point trading a 1st for a RB is our O Line isn't going to give him space to run into. Singletary and, especially, Moss do a fine job running into opposition players as it is. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s usually virtually a 0% chance of happening, and it’s for a splashy name people have heard of. IF I were to trade our 1st round pick, it might be for several picks in rounds 2-4 where we can use them to beef up the OLine. THAT would pay some dividends, I believe. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Says Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 How will Bills pay for these imaginary trades? They have about 1.6 million in cap space. If they acquired a player in a trade they would have to pay about 10 weeks of his salary. Who the hell could they realistically acquire that would be an upgrade AND affordable?

I agree our most pressing need is a quality guard. Bills need a short yardage back too. Beane has constructed this roster so masterfully, thats the only two areas we could have big improvement IMO. Saquan and/or ODB are buttercream frosting on cake. D gets all the big signings and high draft pick. Josh has been a good boy. Lets get him some toys! 4 minutes ago, Herb Nightly said: How will Bills pay for these imaginary trades? They have about 1.6 million in cap space.

BillsFanForever19 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) No way he's moving a 1st for a veteran RB with worn tires on a high priced contract. He won't even use a 1st on a young one with a cost controlled deal. Could I see him making a deal for Barkley? Sure. But in no way does it involve a 1st.

Or how does that work Sounds like total BS to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Positive Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We could have focused on OL and a running game like the colts and paid a OG 24 million per year. Then we too could win games 12-9! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we part with a 1st, we better get a top notch WR or an almost all pro IOL/RT. Saquon looks better than ever. But our OL still can’t run block. It’s not our RB’s fault our run game blows 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
