Tipster19 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I would love to see the Bills make a trade for him. I checked what the Ravens are still in need of and DT was one of the positions of need. Now that the Bills signed Poona Ford could Ed Oliver be expendable in some kind trade for Queen? I don’t know what would be fair compensation in a trade scenario involving these 2 but I’m not against the concept if it were to materialize. 3 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 He was terrible until they traded for Smith to play beside him. I wanted us to draft him, but he severely underperformed. 1 8 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wppete Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I’d give up a 5th round pick for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I doubt he’s actually available. He wants a contract, they definitely aren’t paying him. All that said similar to Oliver, best case for them is queen to have a career year, get a big free agent deal and reap the comp pick. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Yeah, like the WNY fan base is really going to accept the Bills trading for a Queen. Sheesh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Nope. He was a disaster in Baltimore. Hence the huge trade and pay for Smith. He was a 1 season wonder coming out. Suddenly played like a 1st rounder on that amazing LSU run having looked like a day 3 guy the rest of his college career. I think we can now make a pretty safe assumption about which was the abberation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) I’ve certainly posted my share of “trade Oliver for …”, but I’m definitely not trading a contract year underperforming yet talented DT for a contract year underperforming yet talented LB. If Oliver booms, that’s of way more significance for us than if Queen came here and had a great year.

Adding Ford and trading away Oliver leaves you right back where you started. Why (assuming another team would take on his contract) would you weaken your DLine? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I said it in another thread but I would trade for Kenneth Murray. Bills liked him pre draft and the Chargers rejected his 5th year option and he seems to really have fallen out of favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like the idea of moving Ed in general especially to the ravens. Strong chance we meet them again the playoffs and I don’t want an extra motivated Oliver on the other side. Let big Ed ride out the year and take the comp pick if he can’t be resigned imo. now Ed to Arizona for Hopkins maybe that’s a deal I might consider. i do think the staff feels comfortable with what they have at backer for better or worse.

The way I see it: Is he great? No but he’s still a descent to good starting 3 tech. I get trading him would save you almost 11 mil, but then you are just leaving a gaping hole when it comes to a penetrating 3 tech. Like if you trade Oliver, what would be your plan with the 11 mil in cap space? Edited May 4, 2023 by BillsFan130 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I don’t see the reason behind it, just genuinely curious why people want to trade him. I can’t see a scenario where it would make the team better if they traded him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
