Beane is doing a great job of eliminating glaring needs before the draft, so they can focus on BPA. Be very thankful that we have a more-than-capable front office. As it relates to WR, someone young will standout in camp and they’ll look to develop that talent. May be a draft pick, low-end roster filler currently signed, or a UDFA.

Draft OL in 2nd and 4th in this case. The touches are not a problem whatsoever . There’s gonna be enough offensive plays for everyone to get there’s. Plus Henry would like to get less touches to stretch his career out so 18/20 touches per game is double and I believe Hopkins and Diggs can both get 150 plus targets.

People who have contacts somewhat in the know have floated a 3rd. Id be over the moon if we got a 3rd for Oliver. Im thinking a 4th or 5th. And I’d gladly take that to clear his 10M. Maybe we truly do have him in our future plans, but top flight DT’s are getting PAID… and if Oliver becomes that this year, we can’t exactly afford him… If he doesn’t, why would we want to pay him? So, like Edmunds, it’s looking like a play out the option and walk situation. Unlike Edmunds, he hasn’t been anywhere close to the level of player Tremaine was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 20 minutes ago, Herb Nightly said: I personally would give them Oliver,or the pick, not both. My Oliver fantasy trade is send him back to Houston for their two 3rd round picks. Oliver barely produces at the 10 mm salary cap level. He has no meaningful value in a trade. He is also not a big liability. He is neutral. His inclusion in a trade is simply to shift salary cap, allowing other parts of a trade to be made.

Me, personally, I’d rather try to sign OBJ at 2yr/30M without giving up picks than trade for Hopkins. The ultimate all-in move for me (that doesn’t mortgage the future) -Trade Oliver to recoup our Day 3 pick / clear 10M -Sign OBJ -Trade for Henry / extend past this year -Extend Hyde to match Po -Extend Daquan Jones We still retain our RD1, RD3 and three Day3 picks to address LB, Safety depth, OL & DL. Two year window with: Diggs/OBJ Henry Von Hyde/Poyer White Morse(?)/Dawkins Then a whole bunch of cap starts coming off the books as we look to retool around Allen. So you won't trade for a WR but would trade for Henry? That's still 10 million bucks. No way do I dare sign OBJ. You make a number of assumptions regarding trades; they are nice fantasies but what are the odds? I wouldn't mind trading Oliver for a decent return ,there's 10,11 million of cap space for a WR or RB. Why not Fournette? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the picks necessary to get this done the question is would u do it? I know the cap will be an issue but there’s ways to Redo there deals and we can get Oliver and his 11mil off the books. Making these deals would make our offense unstoppable force just imagine Allen , Diggs, Hopkins, Harty , Davis & Knox in the passing game and King Henry and Cook in the running game . This would absolutely take the league by storm . Defensive coordinators around the league would definitely not be sleeping much trying to prepare for this onslaught. The Defense would definitely take a step back but we still have the majority of our secondary intact with Tre getting back to health and a 2nd yr for Elam they still have top ten talent especially when Von returns . McD would have to put on a coaching clinic but I think they will be good enough with this offense to win the Super Bowl. This is a KC style approach with offense being top heavy and a defense that’s just good enough. Some will say there’s not enough plays for everyone on offense to succeed I believe there will be . The Bills have averaged 67 plays per game the last 2yrs these additions would put that over 75 . Which means u can still throw the ball 35/45 times per game and run it another 30 or so . Henry can get his 18/22 touches Cooks gets 8 . In the passing game u still can get Hopkins and Diggs there 10 targets each and the rest of the guys don’t need to be feed Harty, Davis & Knox can share the rest of the targets as well as a few a game to the running bks. I wish we can pull this off it’s the ultimate all in scenario and with this draft being weak and the fact is McBeane is underwhelming in drafting in the 2nd and 3rd anyways makes this that more enticing. If we did something like this and stay healthy we’re winning the Super Bowl! This is a great fantasy line up for sure it would be great if Beane could pull it off but given like you said the money for Oliver (which i wish they would trade him & his salary) & what they have tied up with Von i don't know how he would pull this off . Beane is definitely a magician but i think even this might be beyond his magical skills but who knows i would love to see this line up on the field because as you said D coordinators would be having nightmares as the weeks coming up to play the Bills come around & that for sure sounds like a SB winning roster !

BarleyNY Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 1 hour ago, NastyNateSoldiers said: Definitely. The Saints were 100mil over just last yr . Who did they lose? Now there signing Carr for 40mil per. The cap can be manipulated no doubt. There’s really not much left the Bills can do to create more cap space this season. Restructure of Tre White’s deal could net $6M. I don’t love that though. I expect him to return to form this season, but the Bills can move on from him next off-season if he doesn’t. A restructure makes that tougher. Dawkins has room, but they re-did his last season and he’d likely insist on an extension this off-season if Beane asked him to create some space. I love Dawkins, but there were real concerns about him being in proper shape the last couple seasons. I make him earn that extension first. Oliver could theoretically be traded, but we would not net much in return and then we would need to find a 3T to replace him. That would eat up some of the savings - if we could even find one at this point. So while the Bills could find ways to squeeze out some more space this year, none look like good options. I think they stand pat and look for a reasonably priced MLB and then some bargain FAs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same the Bills could handle the rookie contract much easier than having Henry's money added to it & i think if Beane could trade Oliver & his cap hist o Az he would have already done it . Oliver is a average player but a team that has the money & a need to upgrade to their D he could be a good fit for them but everything has to come together just that way & the one thing is if Beane does put this out there how will Oliver react to it ? His money would be guaranteed so after finding out that Beane was using him as trade bait would he actually play hard or would he just show up to collect a pay check & be a liability ? So there is a lot to consider and I think it would have to be a team that came to Beane with this idea & not the other way around because of the possibility of what could happen .

Hence "it would be stretch" and "its a narrow road". Not sure how to help you understand further. Likely the only teams that would be interested in Oliver would be a team in a rebuild mode and has the money to take a chance on him. If he has a good year he could be the centerpiece of the D line and sign him to a new contract. If he doesn't work out and plays better, they let him go. BUT likely going to get a poor return for him as teams are taking on over paid contract. Or maybe a contending team that has a big hole at DT. Could have a better chance on getting a better return by waiting till August and maybe a contender loses their DT for season to injury. Kind of like how we signed Star 5 years ago. He was a FA so didn't give up anything, but took a chance on him being the seasoned vet to build around. It didn't work out too well as good mediocre return, though do think he provided more value than stat sheet showed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now playing with the Bills is also much different then facing 8/9 man boxes in Tenn so he would be much more efficient playing for us. The Bills lead the league in yards before contact for RBs in 2022 . Even if they stay in the top 10 in that category facing light boxes Henry would consistently get over 120yds playing for Bills on 18/20 touches per game. He would dominate no doubt about it and there’s plenty of plays for everyone to get there touches as long as the offense is moving the ball and with these additions as long as there healthy they should average upwards of 70+ plays a week on offense.
