Low Positive Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 This isn't the NHL or NBA. Big trades rarely occur in season, and teams never make the kind of multiple moves at the deadline that are being suggested here. Also, player-for-player trades almost never happen at the deadline.

MAJBobby Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 So here are a list of players in the positions mentioned that are essentially on the Block. WR Marquise Brown - Final year of Contract Jerry Jeudy - on Contrat next year on 5th year Option of 12.9M Courtland Sutton - 2 years left after this, 17.3 and 17.8 cap hits Darnell Mooney - Final year of Contract Adam Thielen (heard on block and also not) - still on contract 2 years through 35 yrs old 9.9M and 8.4M respective cap hits Hunter Renfrow - 1 more year at 13.7 cap after this DT Leonard Williams - Final Year Christian Wilkins - Final Year Not too many CBs confirmed on block (alot of Safeties like Justin Simmons, Harrison Smith, Kyle Dugger, Jeremy Chinn) A good about of pass rushers as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could be a WR 1, but agree that's tough to tell. at least he becomes a solid #2. He's done well without a Steph next to him. He's my top WR target.

Yeah a long term Solid WR2 makes this offense better. And then who knows maybe after the Vikings tank out again this year Justin Jefferson is traded to the Bills in the offseason as well. Comes full circle getting the player that the Stef pick used to get. 😉 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldmanfan Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 A DT or CB if we do one. But I don’t think we can trade a bunch of picks, because it is looking like we’ll need them to retool after this year. This season looks like the step backward to take two steps forward. We’ll need good draft picks at WR, O line, and DB/S to replace older guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBaumer Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 This team needs to take its hits this year and not sacrifice youth for trades. Buffalo needs all the draft picks they have because this roster has aged out rapidly. Maybe they sneak in as a wild card this year but it is very clear that there are some major issues with players/coaches. Hopefully they nail the draft and get some key players back to health next year. They could go on a run if they get a 80% Von back sext September. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Multiple calls today on WGR from fans saying we have a lot of talent at WR. Sal C just took a call from a guy that said Allen needs to push the ball to Gabe Davis more, he's open. Another caller that says "we have two stud Tight Ends" - do we? Knox is a stud? He's Dallas Goedert? Early in his career he caught a long one against the Patriots, and ran over people against the Bengals, had a long one against the Chiefs. But do other fans agree with this? I don't know. My feeling is if Davis, Sherfield, Harty, Shakir, Knox were high level starters, then they would just make plays easier. Harty has less than 1,000 career receiving yards, Sherfield has less than 1,000 career receiving yards even with 2023 added in. And we're talking about how much talent we have? Harty has 2021 where he was a nice sub-weapon in New Orleans. We can keep squeezing the stone for more blood, but I think Chris Simms is right, there was a reason some fans wanted a WR in the 1st Round the past two years. Bills haven't drafted a WR higher than 4th Round since 2017. Even if you factor in a 1st for Diggs, the last premium asset the Bills used was a 2nd on Zay Jones 6 years ago.

MAJBobby Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Some Bills players that can be used in Package deals as well. (Final Year of Deals) Micah Hyde - Unlikely Leonard Floyd - Unlikely (I think I would rather him re-signed actually) Tim Settle - Sure value if likely a 6th Jordan Phillips - Likely a 2025 conditional value Poona Ford - See Phillips Dane Jackson - Here is good value that can be used for improvement likely holds 3rd round value AJ Epenesa - Probably sitting around 3rd round value Gabe Davis - looking at likely a 3rd and 6th in terms of value then there is a bunch of guys in the conditional areas like Phillips and Ford.

Iverwig Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) I would like an interior DL like Chase Young or a DB. I’m not sure if another WR will change things. Part of my reasoning is Dorsey as the OC. This offense has gotten worse under him. Fans understandably wanted to part ways with McKenzie and upgrade and that hasn’t happened. I don’t know if it’s the routes they run or they just can’t get open but something is not right. KC doesn’t have elite receivers outside of their TE and yet their wideouts can still make plays downfield for Mahomes. Is that because of route design's? Gabe has his issues but he used to be a lot better than what we are seeing now. Outside of Diggs there aren’t many targets to the wideouts. So, we have to wonder if the issues on offense are because of Dorsey or Dorsey being held back by McD. For the record I’ll be surprised if Beane makes any impactful trade because I believe he is part of the problem.

2003Contenders Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Given the huge injuries to the defensive side of the ball, I agree that getting a DT to replace Jones is paramount. Missing both him and Oliver yesterday was huge. I would also like to see a decent CB brought in. Elam's days here appear to be numbered (ironically, maybe he could be part of a trade package) and Dane Jackson has not been good either this year. Honestly, if we bring in someone on the offensive side of the ball, I would be more inclined to make a move for an OT than a receiver. The whole line struggled yesterday. Even when Brown has "decent" days it is usually because he has had to get help from a TE chipping -- which limits the ability of the TEs to make big plays in the passing game. That said, Dalton did have a coming out party yesterday, so hopefully that continues. All of this is to say that I would not break the bank (and future draft compensation) to bring in a WR that likely won't get heavily targeted anyway -- but if there is a dude out there with reliable hands that can consistently convert on 1st downs I would be all for it.

My take is that if you want more star offensive weapons than you can't have a QB taking up such a large % of your cap. Even the Chiefs had to let Tyreek go. The elite highly paid QB needs to elevate those around them.
