For the $100 waiver fee we got a first ballot HOFer with elite athletic skills with PLENTY left in the tank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he was released by the Chargers when they couldn't trade him and we just happened to be #1 on the Waiver Priority list at the time.

Nope. He had an Achilles injury with us in his first workout with the team and went on IR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlbills13 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Impactful in-season trades in the NFL are becoming more and more popular but it's still a longshot that anything earth shattering happens in the next 24 hours for more than one or two teams. Most likely a couple of depth moves or some trades to have better personnel fits (Elam). I do think Beane can greatly improve this roster with one or two "boring" moves though.

I'm not sure if it was trade deadline or not but trades I hadn't thought of in some time. Stroud was the first name that came to mind. I remember there being 3 big named DT's that got traded, but I think it was during the off-season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why with connections to the Giants GM and HC could the Bills not swing something comparable? Can't see us giving up a 2nd rounder for for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trade occurred in the fall of the 1987 season, just before the trade deadline, and has been called "the trade of the decade" by The New York Times. That was on Halloween day. I was in college and my fraternity at Brockport did a charity run to Alfred. We were hung over in the vans driving back when they announced it and it was still one of the best Halloween‘s ever! One of my favorite players of all time in number 97! ….. so yes, they did something big before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Nah, we're not big on improving mid-season 😅 But they have to find a way to trade Elam before the deadline... Just my opinion, but he'll have more trade value now than he will in the offseason, especially since it looks like we have zero intention of using him either way.

Chandler#81 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 13 hours ago, K-9 said: That was certainly one of them as it immediately changed the power structure in the AFCE because it gave us the pass rush to impact Marino consistently. But I’d say the final moves to make us SB contenders were the addition of Thurman and the hiring of Marchibroda as OC. Crazy how Thurman was a back up to Ronnie Harmon and Robb Riddick! At least until the playoff game with Houston. HOF after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
