Is trading Milano something Bills should consider?


Recommended Posts

Can we all agree that the bills would’ve had an even better record if Milano didn’t get injured last year? There was a gaping hole in the middle of the defense EVEN when Daquan Jones came back

Switching to a 34 would be the second

I disagree. Switching to a 3-4 is way “sillier” than just getting rid of Milano. We would have to revamp the whole defense. We just paid Oliver and he doesn’t fit. Rousseau doesn’t fit a 3-4 at all. He can’t be a stand up OLB. Miller does (and obviously has), but who knows if he will return to form. And he’s probably only around one more season anyway. Also Bernard probably doesn’t fit either. So moving to a 3-4 would mean getting rid of pretty much everyone on the first two levels of the defense - including Milano. So that way, way, way worse.

i'd trade him if the cap hit wasn't huge and we got tremendous value.

 

but the cap hit is huge, and he's a great player at a lower valued position, so the value we'd get for him would very close to certainly wouldn't be huge so doesn't seem like much there.

 

to me the greatest ability is availability, so while he's one of our best players when he's healthy, he misses enough games to be a concern.  that said, he's prolly worth his contract plus to us so what would you trade him for?  another expensive player or picks which may or may not work out?

No. Dodson is a free agent, Spector is a backup and I don't know we have seen enough from Williams yet to say he can definitely play. I'm actually looking forward to a year of Bernard and Milano. That feels like a playmaking combo to me. 

Milano's injury history is a concern for me. If I could get nice compensation for him, I'd consider trading him. Edgerrin Cooper would look nice in a Bills uniform.

Yes. This is what the great teams do. They develop and re-sign their top homegrown players to reasonable contracts, then trade them for cap relief at the height of their careers. No. No they don’t.

Nope. Not to mention that nobody would want an often injured LB who’s going to be 30 at the start of the season. Don’t care how good he is, you aren’t getting a team to trade for him. At least not enough for it to be worth it on our end. 

We seem to want him though. And players rolling into your leg and it snapping isn’t really an injury prone injury.

One of the few legit super stars we have and u think we should trade him ? SMH. Milano would’ve been the key difference in that KC game and directly one of the reasons we lost. 

Well we didn’t have Milano or Bernard. I’ve seen Milano in the playoffs, so far he hasn’t been that impact guy. Not sure he’ll all of a sudden be that guy as he gets deeper into his 30’s. 
 

Bernard is the guy I’m hoping steps up in the playoffs because we haven’t seen him in the playoffs yet.

That’s not true. Milano was one of the only players that showed up during the Cincinnati disaster.
