It's a different story if your team is rebuilding / needs a QB But when you are in the state this team is.....pick #32 for an elite player is a strong move This staff has been very good with their first round picks. I’d like to keep that going instead of wasting it on an always injured running back. Maybe it’s just me 🤷🏻♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 1st and a player is what I'm expecting the Bills to offer. I'm also expecting that pick to be in the 30's. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsSbSoon Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 If we traded for von and won the super last year nobody would’ve been complaining about the picks we gave up. If a reasonable deal can be made I don’t see the problem. We are within reach and can taste it. I’m not worrying about beane overpaying cause he’s not going to. I still wouldn’t do it with singletary involved though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way I give up a first for him with his history of injuries. Granted he is a very good RB when healthy which isn't very often. Who knows if this happens but I am guessing Beane doesn't give up a first either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But anyone saying they don't wanna give up a 1st has to look at the bigger picture. If it means we're holding up the Lombardi at the end of the season, then make that trade all day long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooklynBills Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 5 minutes ago, DrDawkinstein said: All accurate but I'm curious where he is getting such an exact figure of $4.8M. There is no guaranteed money, so it can be restructured to anything. Could be $3M if CMC would agree to it. There is no floor other than what CMC will agree to, as far as I know. Turn $11 million of his $12 million salary into a bonus leaving him with a 1 mil base salary and the bonus prorates over the final 3 seasons at roughly 3.6ish million per season. So that year 1 cap hit is about 4.8. Raises his final 2 years but the Bills have alot cap flexibility (relatively) starting in 2024. Cap will also start to rise in 2025. If I have time, I'll do a future cap post because there's a lot of doom and gloom going on about the cap and it's just not accurate. Some guys will have to be sacrificed but such is life in the NFL.

But the 3 players you mentioned have a combined cap hit of 75 million in 2023, so that isn’t even close to accurate. So you're saying it's not enough ?

It's more like trading McKenzie, Epenesa, Moss, Singletary, and a late 1st or 2nd for CMC. Except they'll let you keep McKenzie, Epenesa, and Singletary for this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I'm shocked that anyone would give up a first for an oft-injured, overpriced RUNNING BACK on the best passing team in the league. 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Tre White for CMC is probably the most equitable trade. All-pro for All-pro. Injury for Injury prone. We have to see this trade from both sides. 6 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fan base is saying anything less than a 1st + more is an insult. Our fanbase want to give them mid rounders and backups. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
