I mean, if that's what Arizona wanted I'd say do it. But Arizona wants to deal Hopkins to get rid of his salary. Not sure how interested they'd be to take on Oliver for one season at a 10 million cap hit if they're doing the deal to help their cap to begin with.

Ain't happening unless we get picks for Ed and turn that into DHop.

One season and 9 million less on the books.  Not a great offer but definitely has a nice appeal to it.

They're gonna have the top D pick and then the 3rd in every rd. No way in Hell do they want to take Ed's salary.

I think we need a couple things:

 

-OL improvement.  McGovern is a good start.  Edwards, also helpful.  Could be as simple as a Year 2 jump in Kromers scheme and Brown getting better.   Would love a Tackle at 27 though. 

 

At the very least, we need better competition for Spencer Brown than Quessenberry.

-Improved pass rush. Again, could be as simple as just getting Von back at some point.  Would love an added vet pass rush specialist though. 

 

IMHO, we need a 2nd 3TDT.  Von has said he needs someone putting pressure up the middle to be most effective.  He praised Phillips, earlier in the season when he was healthy.  Ed Oliver by himself is probably not enough.

-WR2/3 upgrade. Could be Hopkins.  Could be a high draft pick .. Problem with the draft is who knows what’s there at 27 or RD2 for that matter.  I even think someone like Zay Flowers in the slot could be that missing piece, but will he be there?

 

Good question if Shakir will step up, but I don't want to count on it.  Harty and Sherfield may contribute at #3/#4 also, but again...don't want to count

Apparently as of right now, that's the asking price and there are multiple teams interested. I didn't say you should pay that price, I said that was the likely ask.

 

Arizona wants teams to give them a 1st in order to take on DHop's $19.45M salary this year and $14.92 next season?

No, that particular conversation was referring to Denver's putative asking price for Jeudy, though the most recent information posted in the thread dedicated to Jeudy makes it sound as if he is not actually on the trading block.

 

The KC fan Zerovoltz showed up to opine Jeudy was a better target to help the Bills, that's how it came up here.

Otherwise known as Zack Ertz Syndrome. They’ll start working on a cure just as soon as they finally come up with another med for chronic moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Aren’t all the cures now medical marijuana? Pretty sure they just give that to everyone and it’s been working. Or at least people have been happy enough all the time to not care about their over exaggerated medical conditions.

Once again, no one is saying that there is a certainty. And 2, of we pass on dhop, go the draft route and still don't win anything, is that worse 5 years down the road than going for Dhop now and at least giving us that better chance now and at least say we tried 5 years from now? Give me Dhop and take the chance

No. If we plow more resources (mostly cap space) into assets that only offer returns for the next two years rather than long term ones of course it’ll be worse three to five years from now. I’m not sure how you’re even debating that.

 

That doesn’t mean that the team shouldn’t go for it. It’s just an acknowledgment of the downside of doing so. The upside is (obviously) a better shot at a title in 2023 & 2024. As I’ve said before, it’s the right move for this regime to push their chips in. If the Bills don’t perform better in the next two playoffs than they have in the last few, then they won’t be here in 2025 anyway.

 

Beyond that I think this team needs a move like DHop - an offensive playmaker who can be effective immediately. The team knows they need a player like that too. So I actually agree with you about acquiring DHop. I’m not going to pretend there’s not a price for it though.

Did we make the trade yet? Or is Beane going to wait until this thread has more pages than the Arizia thread?

We’re waiting for gummies to be introduced to the new stadium menu.

It is fun that we keep checking this thread, like it's not going to immediatly get it's own new one if it does happen.

Yeah... Some of the usual suspects would have already drafted the thread so they can get in first when it happens...
