TFBillsfan Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 With the Bills having a deep roster, who do you think are potential trade candidates before final roster cuts? Curious to know who might be a trade option and who we might target in return. IMO, all eyes will be on the LB position in the first two preseason games. Does the current LB competition look solid or will it be obvious we have a big drop off/liability at the position outside of Milano. Do the Bills keep all their DE depth? Would you trade a CB? Any surprise trade candidates? My opinion is the roster is too deep at certain positions to not expect a trade. What says you BillsMafia?

BuffaloBillyG Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Beane has a past history of finding trade partners for OL. With that in mind I'm thinking Greg Mancz is a possibility.

OldTimer1960 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I’m still hoping that the light comes on for Elam, but If he can’t win the starting job convincingly, he should be considered as a trade candidate. Question is, what could you get in return for him? 1 1 1 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNLESS the deal is too goods to be true I was looking at it from the perspective of keeping a first round pick who has been a disappointment. Also, can’t imagine that his trade value would go anywhere but down as a backup to a guy he was picked to replace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Doyle, Quessenberry, Mancz, Basham, Settle, Phillips, Klein. Was thinking Benford, but I think they like him and might try him at safety. Would anyone give up a pick for Cam Lewis? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basham is the most likely candidate. AZ is dieing for defensive help. He could start on that type of team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikePJ76 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 if you pay attention around the league you will see that every teams media and fanbase thinks they have 9 or 10 great wr and would be sure to be able to trade a few of them. every year this discussion happens. Every team is heavy at the same positions this time of year, wr,rb and secondary and everyone always thinks they can get back these big returns for these guys. It never happens. What every team wants this time of year is offensive lineman and pass rushers which are almost impossible to come by. If you spend some time reading about other teams camps you will see right away everyone is looking for tackles. having said all that I would call Dallas and see what the status of zach martin is. He is holding out and the jones family bails on veteran players when they want more money. They kicked out Demarcus Ware and said he couldnt play anymore which was 100% not true. Maybe the Martin hold out could someway come to the same conclusion. The guy is great and close to retirement but can play Right tackle or guard. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeAndy Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) The team would be highly foolish to trade any of their roster-locked CB/DE/WR depth like AJE, Dane Jackson, or one of the WRs. The guys who aren’t roster locks, being Shane Ray, Jordan Phillips, Cam Lewis, ext, don’t have much trade value. I’d rather the team try to hide some of them on the PS than trade them for a conditional 6th.

SCBills Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Basham seems obvious at this point. Maybe Settle, but with Oliver and Phillips coming off years where they were banged up quite a bit, I think they may decide to roll with 5 DT's. At DE.. Von, Rousseau, Floyd and AJE are locks. Basham has value given 2 years left on his rookie contract. Shane Ray could lock down DE5, or be someone we can get on the PS depending upon his preseason tape. I don't really see any other trade candidates. We have zero tackle depth, and while we do have IOL depth, I'm not sure who is wanting to send picks out for anyone like Boettger coming off injury or a late round pick in Nick Broeker. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
