Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Feel like Evans is not the kind of reviver that will produce well after the age of 30. Given what we would have to give up in trade and salary I don’t hubbub would have to pass. Let’s find another Diggs, a disgruntled wr who feels they are not being utilized correctly and under the age of 27. Possibly even on a rookie deal still.

Evans and Jackson not only had similar skillsets but they actually both had 1,000 yard seasons playing across from each other in Tampa in 2014.

KOKBILLS Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I'm not in favor of giving up anything as far as picks are concerned right now. Nothing. That includes trading up. I think the Bills should be concentrating on trading a few of their own players and getting extra picks. Then using the Draft to stay ahead with picks every year...not behind. More chances at landing good roster players on Rookie deals is what they'll need most the next few years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I think we need a speedster. Someone who can get vertical quickly. We also need a slot guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More production would be nice but that would also cost more draft capital. Mims would be very cheap via a trade if he isn’t just released.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 He’s old and expensive. They had a Bucs analyst on WGR this week that talked about the draft, the team. And he said that Evans is beloved in Tampa. He loves it there, and is a Bucs Wall of Famer. The Bills get these guys too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meyers is probably getting $40M or more guaranteed..........Evans in this scenario is $14M. Ultimately, I think you want to get below those kind of price points for WR2-WR3 in 2024. If you trade for Evans, he’s going to want a new contract, and he’ll have all the leverage. You’re looking at something like 3/$70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, I’m certainly open to sending Gabe to Tampa for Mike Evans. Still need to draft a WR early. Then we can platoon Beasley and Shakir in the slot. I dont think it would be wise to just give up on Davis. He has certainly done enough in his very young career to be given another opportunity.

You’re looking at something like 3/$70. I don't know about that. He is a different dude. I suspect if he got traded he'd want to see how the season went before he committed to an area. I'm not sure playing with a great QB is even a priority for him. He's not a diva but I watched a lot of his games this year and he seemed disinterested at times despite having Tom Brady throwing passes to him. I wouldn't be surprised if he put up another 1,000 yards somewhere but then just retired after next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say if he doesn't get a new contract before UFA opens in a few weeks..........that would be a red flag about his desire to play a lot longer. 29 year old 1,000 yard receivers don't go into walk years anymore. They know their value. The Bucs are in a massive salary crunch between the debt and the free agent talent............it should be a no brainer to extend him for 5 more years and push that debt down the road.
