    I mean it doesn't matter but I mean it's still awesome. Also if nothing else this group of guys in the 4th game some who may not make it in the NFL will always have this being the first Bills team to go 4-0 in preseason which I think is kind of nice.

    Exactly, it means nothing, but it's nice that our cannon fodder beat their cannon fodder and showed some moxie in the process.

    Murphy or Yeldon?  Count me in the Murphy crowd.  I liked him before when he played for us.

    Yeldon didn't play. Murphy is playing in the 4th quarter.  Seems pretty straight forward.  The only reasons Yeldon wouldn't play are they are keeping him, they are looking to trade him, or they don't want him to get hurt so they can cut him without a settlement

    Hmm.  Let's see: spend a year in beautiful South Florida, or spend a year playing in an extension of Appalachia aka WNY?  Decisions, decisions <sarcasm>

    Hmmm, spending your contract year on a pretty good D line where you'd get minimal double teams and pad your numbers or spend it on a team where you will be the focus of every blocking scheme every week.

    If I am Houston I am laughing at that offer. Give me Dawkins with a first or second and now the Bills are in the conversation. Not someone like Zay who has underperformed. Shady, over 30 yr old rb, who plays at a devalued position where you can find decent players post cutdown day.

    And if I'm Buffalo I say have a nice day because I'm not giving you that for a rental and neither is anyone else. Which is why the trade hasn't happened yet.  if anyone offered Houston anywhere NEAR that package they'd have leapt on it like a hungry mountain lion.

    If Dolphin are in on Clowney and Tunsil is available. It would cost Dawkins at a minimum not including potential draft picks for both teams.

     

    People talking about guys like Zay Jones being viable compensation is crazy.

    If the Dolphins trade Tunsil to Houston knowing that they can't re-sign Clowney until the off-season they are morons.  IMO that's the biggest hold-up in this situation, the difference in Clowney's actual value as a football player, and what is he worth to another team to acquire when you factor in the massive risk involved in that he can walk and you end up with nothing.  If he could be re-signed to a multi-year extension immediately, ergo, teams would be given permission to talk to his agent and work everything out in advance, you'd be correct, but this isn't that situation.


    Zay Jones isn't ample compensation, not even close. But to Houston, if Clowney is really going to sit he adds no value to your football team and they have immediate needs at multiple positions.  The longer he sits out the fewer games his acquiring team will be guaranteed to have him on the field which depresses his value even more. After the trade deadline he has no value at all to Houston apart from the 3rd round comp pick they MIGHT get (again, assuming he truly is going to pull a Leveon Bell maneuver).
