Why go for an end of contract Melvin Gordon that will cost a 1-3rd rounder, who has what, 1 1k season and wants 10-12 million a year? Get a Ballage or Drake or Lindsay who can shoulder 10-20 carries a game and be on a rookie deal for a year or two for a 4-6th rounder?

This is exactly the point, why wait until that happens? No one can count on a 36 yr old RB taking the majority of running snaps. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when.

I saw a 36 yr old RB slowing down with the weight of a run game on him in the first 3 qtrs of a tight Titans game. Motor has proven nothing in the league for durability. What is his official status? He has never been asked to be a RB1 in this league. Anyone want to give Yeldon 20 totes a game? Fools gold relying on a 36 yr old. Gore is still great in situations, but continuing to count on him.

Penetrating insight. If 36 yr old Gore goes down, who balances the offense with a run game?

So while the trade deadline looms overhead we at TBD have been focusing on WR. Rumors of AJ Green, Stephon Diggs etc swirl about. The cut of Zay Jones for Duke Williams, and knowing that Robert Foster isn't in the 'doghouse' but has been battling a groin injury for some weeks now tells me the WR room is ok. I have faith in Brown, Beasly, McKenzie (Big plays), Williams, Foster and Roberts to assemble as a decent NFL WR Corps. It's a nice mix. What I don't have faith in is the RB room after a 36 year old Frank Gore. With Gore, McCoy, Singletary and or Yeldon it looked awesome. Cut Shady, and injury to Singletary and its been only Gore and Yeldon. Gore is a stud, he has been a stud and is doing amazing things given his age and opportunity. Yeldon has made some plays and should be given credit for it. Neither of these guys, or even Singletary can carry the load. God forbid Gore goes down before Singletary can come back, and even if he does can Yeldon and Singletary carry a run game? No they can not. Singletary is a terrific change of pace back. 3 games in he was injured. I was worried about his size and the level of his competition coming in. Buffalo should be looking for a RB, before wearing out Frank Gore and having to rely on Yeldon. Gore is a pefect battering ram at 15 carries a game, but can't carry the load, and Yeldon offers little to nothing as a running RB. A 5th for Ballage or Drake from Miami seems right, even if it's after the game with them. A 4th or 5th to Denver for Lindsay would be fine too. This new O-Line is designed to mash, but the horses simply aren't in the barn to do it. RB is a much higher need right now than WR. my two cents

good insight, good share, thanks

Get the stuff in my yard and garden dne that has been ignored previous Sundays before the weather turns bad. Keep repping in London OP, I love to hear it.

Credit to a very undermanned Giant team giving the Pats a tough game.

Doink!!!!

Rooting for injuries is bad mojo

Barkley, his backup, Evan Engram and Sterling Shepard all out. The only NFL quality WR or RB they have is Golden Tate. Buffalo played a Giants team with Eli, Barkley and Engram all playing.

This offense will look different when Foster and Singletary return. Until then feed McKenzie and Knox. Ugly for now, down a few OL. Get the beasts healthy on OL. Get McKenzie involved until then.

I can't believe it 30+ years of fandom, and this Defense is real. Get Green or other help at RB (shouldn't have traded Shady). Go for it. Push the chips in. Go get it now in a down year. Buffalo is one or two players away from being' that team' and they have the cap to do it. Hoping for Bills vs 49ers Super Bowl we were all robbed of. Maybe not this year but next.

Happy they kept McKenzie over Ray Ray. Happy Duke gets the call over Zay Jones. Get Foster healthy. Brown Beasley Foster McKenzie Duke Roberts Aok in my book.

I like the premise. I feel something special with this team. Usually I say no, build for the future. not much to pay next year. Go for it in a down year. Against everything I belive in, yes, this is the year to do it.

There must have been some magic in that old Bills hat he found, cause when he put it on his head, the Bills season turned around...

The defense is fierce Like a lake effect blizzard Movement is stopped cold

One Josh is Rosen Buffalo did not pick him They chose the right Josh

The Pirate Zay Jones Couldn't 'catch on' with the Bills Now he's a Raider *********************************** Aluminum foils Slleestak alien ray guns Much better than tin

Warren, Ohio. It's part of the Youngstown, Ohio area.

My sister lives in the Warren area not far from Youngstown. Isn't that basically half way between Pittsburgh and Cleveland? If I had to choose between the two it would be Pittsburgh all day everyday.

Burn it! Burn the witch!

I was being snarky, and actually agree with your point.

Everyone knows that foil is made of aluminum now, which is far more effective in repelling alien scanners. Duh! If Zay had been wearing one he would have not been acting high and fighting for Jesus.

Oline or RB is my guess
