HereComesTheReignAgain Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 How has he agreed to a deal with the Jets if he is still under contract? This would be a clear case of tampering I would imagine. 4 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 If they do sign him, I wonder if this mean Hall won't be ready for week 1.

dje85 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Tampering, so I doubt this is true. Also, The Jets have a better, younger bell cow running back already. Makes no sense for them to do this unless Hall won;t be ready at the beginning of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't sound like the Bills offered to trade for him... they made an offer to sign him. It seems like MIN let him negotiate knowing that they'll release him and NYJ and BUF mades offers - they're trying to find a taker before releasing. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hall / Izzy / Carter / Knight / Dye (USC/Oregon) with Cook in the mix? That’s a lot of talent to evaluate, lose or try to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 This would be a very Jetsy thing to do.

John from Riverside Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Just doesn’t sound like a very billsy thing to do Not only do the bills not have $11 million in order to sign him. They’ve already signed two other running backs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't it take Barkley a couple of years to regain his form which he did last year. Look at Tre he struggled when he came back last year. Hopefully he can regain his old form this year.

If the Jets are negotiating with Cook and his agent, and have a deal ready to go *while he is still under contract to another team who may be seeking to trade him*, that would be a huge case of Tampering and the J-E-T-S Jets would be in trouble with the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be cutting Josh Allen to afford the deal and are willing to eat the dead cap for an aging RB just so they can have two Cooks in the kitchen. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyBills Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 How could Buf want or afford this dude? We added Harris and Murray to solidify that role. Our RBs are det and very diverse and talented. Yesterday he was going to Mia , today the Jests. Who knows but sounds like a bunch of gossip Regardless, I think we are far superior to the Jets with or without him and what does this say about their confidence in Hall bouncing back?

Buffalo_Stampede Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Didn’t care when he was going to Miami and don’t care if he goes to the Jets. It’s a RB. I listened to a CBS radio host yesterday talk about how the Bills don’t know what they’re doing. They’re one piece away but don’t know what piece they’re missing. They need to add a top RB and stop trying to throw all the time. He mentioned Zeke Elliot as a better fit then Hopkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 They already have a strong young RB on his rookie contract (Breece Hall), so it doesn't make much sense to throw money at Dalvin Cook. I know Hall is coming off an ACL injury, but seems like a wasted move to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
