Beane heard the "Moss and a 6th" meme here and made it happen!

LMAO!!!!!

 

It's Zach Moss and a conditional 6th that can go to a 5th....

 

 

Beane simply called all 31 teams and left a pre-recorded voicemail: "Hi, this is Brandon Beane with the Buffalo Bills. Are there any players you'd be willing to move for Zack Moss and a late round draft pick? If so, please call me back between the hours of 9am and 5pm on Monday through Friday. Thank you."

What?! Why didn't they get McCaffrey, Davante Adams, Quinton Nelson, Derwin James, and uh...Jerry Rice?!? This is the poop of the bull and now I are so mad my whole day is kaputs. Thanks jerks!

Or at least Hines Ward. C’mon,

Brandon, he’s available!

Not giving up. But Hines is a significant upgrade over Cook this season which is obviously the focus. 
 

I agree it’s problematic Beane used a 2nd round pick and yet was still stuck in the RB market. McKissic continues to reverberate. 

 

 In what way? His 2 yards per carry this year or his his 7.5 yards per catch, which is less than half of what Cook averages.

 

 

[Buffalo_Stampede]

So I guess Cook didn’t pick up the playbook fast enough or something. They obviously want a receiving RB. Tried for McKissic, Edmonds, used a 2nd and now traded Moss and a 6th.

 

Im interested to see what they have planned.

[L Ron Burgundy]

So many people posting who clearly don't comprehend what a receiving rb is.  Why post if you don't know the player?  

[HappyDays]

If you read the comments from Colts fans under this tweet, they feel that we fleeced them and they are sad to see him go. This is a great sign.

This, as it was foretold, is a great value trade. Hines can run.

He's pretty good at catching too.

[SCBills]

I think James Cook can become a stud, but if you’re telling me I can do a player for player swap of Moss for Hines by throwing in a late round pick…. I’m doing it every time.  
 

This trade is hilariously lopsided and I wouldn’t be surprised to see next years backfield be Hines/Cook with Singletary as odd man out and a restructured contract for Hines.

[2020 Our Year For Sure]

I like it. A good pass catcher with some explosiveness is a good complement to Singletary.

 

Cook can keep working on his pass protection, bulk up in the offseason and try again next year.

 

The priority is winning the championship, not proving some point about the 2nd round pick.

[PayDaBill$]

Didn’t cost a thing really.

Zack Moss will crush this team...

If you had Moss you could get more

[streetkings01]

Since 2018 he’s 5th amongst active RB’s in receiving yards …….plus he’s a returner. Good move……gives us depth plus more speed at the RB position.

Welcome to the Matt Breida, TJ Yeldon role v 3.0.

He isnt a 3 down back. He is a pass catching back.  Kind of unfair to give him 2 yards a carry on an avg of 2.5 attempts a game too... Rest of career 3.7 to 4.9 ypc.

It is odd though with Cooks. Maybe they just want someone more experienced filling this role for Dorseys offense.

 

 After the game Cook played Sunday night? Cook's averages per carry and catch are more than twice of Hines.

I think Moss will have a much better career than Hines. Write that down. Moss wasn't going to be able to do it here and needed a change of scenery but he's going to catch on either with the Colts or elsewhere. He's a good player

Him and Christian Wade are gonna light the league on fire.  Just you wait. 

 

Moss is bad.  He's going to stay bad.

Trade came in just as they were switching programs, Schefter was literally reading as they went off air when I posted.

He looks like what we’re looking for.

Cook is the more talented player but Hines is a proven passing down RB. Meaning he’s also able to pick up the blitz.

[NeverOutNick]

Man what an amazing trade and the perfect fit for our offense. I love the way he catches the ball and he’s a decent running back as well. Josh is going to be happy

Be great if he has some PR/KR ability to go with the speed. 
 

crazy business.  Zack goes from playoff caliber team to playoff wannabe team.

Many of their fans thought they’d get a 3rd for Hines. Beane is a genius.

If you can't do it in one of the best offenses in the NFL, where are you gonna do it?

[Airseven]

Hines & Cook for Moss, 2nd & conditional 5th/6th 🤔

Why trade for him then? I don't know. Just guessing. Depth?

[78thealltimegreat]

We should call and get a free Taco from Taco Bell cause this was World Series stealing a base.

Hines can line up at wr…it’s an absolute steal for a 6th and moss.

Yep.  He easily fills McKenzie's role if Lil Dirty should get nicked up.

[Dr.Mantis_Toboggan]

Brandon Beane took the chick crap, (Zach Moss), added a sprinkle of garbage (late round pick), Bam!
 

 

[SoMAn]

Very disappointed in this move. I have no idea who he is. 😏

moss and a 6th!

Singletary probably won't be back.  That means you have Cook and Hines at RB next year.

And likely a 4th -7th round pick at RB to be Cook's backup. Or a cheap FA

I love Hines and he basically cost nothing.

 

I hate that the Bills used a 2nd round pick on James Cook.

I don’t think it reflects on cook as much we people think it does…he’s still in the long term plans but rbs have a lot more responsibilities than people think and the bills want a veteran back there while we’re in win now mode 

 

hines has the skill set to line up at wr

You all told me Moss couldn't be traded. I knew Beane was up to something when he didn't even touch the ball the other night. 

 

Beane is a wizard and this is an Upgrade for us. How much to be seen lol
