I’d trade Ed Oliver, James Cook a 1st round pick and 2 2nd round picks. That should get it done… Thoughts?

 

I don't mind giving up the picks or Oliver, but I would hate to lose Cook. He is the 2nd best players on offense. Maybe if the Bills had a better WR group it might be different, but they don't. Allen can't be the only difference maker on offense. He needs help and Cook provides that.

Does anyone who requests a trade ever actually get traded? I can’t think of any recent examples.

At this point shut up, play out the year and get ready for a bidding war next year. 

You mean get ready for the franchise tag next year

Jalen Ramsey has done it a couple times now. Not sure how far the Seahawks and Metcalf got before he was traded.

This is a great point. Far more often than not it is just posturing for negotiations sake. No way Dallas ever lets him go. They can lock him up for the next three years if they really want to with franchise tag, he has no power and isn't going anywhere.

The one thing Brandon Beane has severely missed during his time here, is landing that DE1.  Rosseau to me, is more of a DE2.  I absolutely love Micah Parsons and believe that he would be that chess piece that the defense could desperately use.  People forget that he was drafted to play WLB and runs a 4.3.  Imagine him in that Lorenzo role, while also giving him free reign to make plays.  I know it would never happen, but as a fan, it's fun to dream.

Id give them the next three first round picks.

Way too much compensation when you also factor the salary he will command.  You create so many future cap problems by not being able to bring young affordable talent into the pipeline

TLDR- Parsons requesting trade

I'm not a big fan of him....however a change of scenery could help him become a DPOY type player again 

 

1st + AJ Epenesa is my offer

So they’ll extend him by next Thursday 

[Kirby Jackson]

I’m all for it. I don’t care what it costs. This Bills NEED more elite talent. Josh Allen has one teammate rated over 90 in Madden. Lamar has 8. The Bills will have, MAYBE 2 other guys in the NFL top 100 (maybe just Cook). You win with stars. You have 1. Don’t worry about the cap in the future. Yes, it can be done. It isn’t easy but can be done. Go all in. Get Parsons (or McLaurin if not) if either of them is going to be moved.

Do you?

The Bills historically cut a few late round picks per year.

 

Obviously Micah is expensive but I don’t think there’s a massive salary cap effect from not having a late first and having to retain a 7th round pick instead.

IMO they won't. Jones has shown zero desire 

[SCBills]

If he were to legitimately become available, this is the move. 
 

Enough is enough….
 

Mahomes has always had Jones, Kelce, Hill for a while. 
 

Jackson, year in, year out, has a team littered with All-Pros. 
 

Burrow has two elite WR1’s. 

Get Josh someone else to run with.  We consistently have, maybe, the most well rounded above average talent roster in the NFL.   But if you look at the Chiefs reign, Kelce, Hill and Jones have big plays strewn throughout their run. 
 

Allen has had a Diggs drop, Kincaid drop and a Defense that gives up 30+ to KC. 

[One Buffalo]

“Josh is probably one of my favorite players in the league”

 

 

[SCBills]

NFLN talking about how Dallas would need back a ransom of picks and a quality player to replace Parsons. 
 

Seems the Bills could easily handle that with a couple 1st’s + and AJ Epenesa. 
 

Say what you want about AJ, but he’s solid and I’m not sure who else has a guy his caliber they’d could easily throw into a trade no questions asked.

I feel like Jones would over-value Cook based on his RB history

[davefan66]

So he’s going the Myles Garrett route of “severing ties” with the organization and city??

I am getting sick of the "request a trade" crap. I'm glad Cook didn't decide to go down that route 

It's Jerry Jones you're dealing with here.  I don't blame him one bit.
