I wouldn't mind seeing what the Raiders thoughts are on trading Josh Jacobs. There's no need to have Josh throwing it from inside the 5 with a RB like Jacobs.

Agree with you as I mentioned him late last week as well. My 2 cents:

 

Raiders put themselves in a bind by not taking his 5th year option. Now they either have to sign him to a likely pricy second contract or let him walk in the hopes of getting a comp pick. So, in theory if the Bills (or anyone, really) were to offer a 3rd it would be higher than the comp pick they would get for him by letting him walk. At 2-5 this should be their play. I could even be talked into a 2nd as our second would be at the end of they round most likely and then we would end up potentially gaining they comp pick for letting him walk. So a late second that we would give up would possibly become a late 3rd for the services of a nice power running back.

 

The offense has looked good so far, but we aren't that far away from the weather being an issue much like we saw last year. The Patriots game, the Falcons game...heck did we have any good weather games last year? In any even weather is going to be an issue soon and Jacobs being added to Motor and Cook just looks a lot better than the possibility of Moss getting carries because he's a "power back"

Every year there’s tons of hype for the trade deadline and every year barely anything happens. Add in there’s already been a few moves and the odds are even lower imo. Anything can happen but generally there’s a ton of discussion for nothing. 

 

 

More like every year some idiots on TSW complain about all the "hype" for the trade deadline and every year trades that move significant players and picks happen in the NFL.    It's not the NHL/MLB/NBA where teams trade for a player and can put him in the starting lineup 6 hours later and expect results.........if those people understand that difference and are still getting too" hyped" that's a them problem.

Every year we spend a bunch of time on the deadline and ALMOST every year nothing happens. Probably will just come and go

 

 Yes and no. What we do know from several interviews is Beane tried to get Diggs at the trade deadline in 2019. So we know that he is out there trying, but isn't going to give up too much to do it.

Trade Deadline is tomorrow, Tuesday Nov 1 at 4pm. As of now the only real discussion Buffalo has had has been talks with The Saints for Alvin Kamara but The Saints shut it down. 
 

Post here if you see or hear any other news about the Bills and possible trades. 

My sources have informed me that we will NOT be trading for Jaire Alexander. So that's one player we can eliminate. That leaves something like 3,519 players left.

The raider locker room would implode if they trade Jacobs-  I’d love to trade a 2nd for him (because of the 3rd rd comp pick we’d get when we don’t resign him), I just don’t see them pulling the trigger on it.

If Poyer is out I would expect them to send a conditional pick to the Falcons for Dean Marlowe.      Outside of that, they need to bring in another offensive weapon, unless they start to use Cook more in the slot.

 

I would not mind Bills resigning Dean Marlowe.  He always performed when needed but Bills had a lot of players who would get paid first and they had two top safeties.

Dean actually got paid less by Lions and would not have been surprised if Bills matched it if they had opportunity but he probably wanted chance to start.

Heard a report last week about Buf being interested in Hunt and Cam Akers.

I personally hope we don't trade for a RB. I'm more than fine with Motor as RB1 and Cook as RB2

 

I agree, but we are a injury to Singletary away from being in BIG trouble.  (kind of like our current Secondary situation with Poyer out).  

 

I'm fine with adding to Secondary (biggest need to replace/backup Poyer, IMO), WR, RB, OL (also a big need in general),

You didn't hear? There was a report by Jay Glazer that the Bills called to inquire about Kamara but were shot down by the Saints. Kinda like I am by women for dates

 

Did the women problem start early for you too.

Lol!

Safety is a must.  Poyer is not going to make it to the playoffs.  He has been the walking wounded for weeks now.

He looks to be getting hurt every other week.  

 

Not good.....

Hate it that I have to agree with this.

 

Maybe we should check on Jonathan Abram Safety for the Raiders?

When discussing Josh jacobs, why not discuss his stat line from yesterday?  😉 😘 

Why pigeonhole it? Let’s talk about his season so far😉
