BuffaloFan68 Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Bowe would be a GREAT fit here in Buffalo! He already knows he would have success in Chan's system. Git'r done Buddy!
reddogblitz Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Nothing helps a mediocre QB than WRs that can catch passes that aren't perfectly thrown. See Russel Wilson. It's also something we sorely lack. I say go for it. WR is a huge hole on our team.
T master Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Is this just pure speculation on your part? YEP !!!!!!
The Voice of Truth Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Bowe has reportedly expressed his unhappiness with Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports. Cole says that one team could be Miami, but I am hearing that Buffalo will definitely look at him if he is available for trade. It could be what saves Chan. http://nomorelinks....ded-to-buffalo/ Not unless there is a trade for him. I would guess strongly that he is dissatisfied with the QB and offensive situation in KC. Do you think Fitz will be able to draw him? I think not. He knows he is underachieving for his talent and Buffalo is not the place to go to rectify that. Until we get our QB situation settled, we are very lucky to have Stevie, who consistently gets seperation.
John from Riverside Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I have been calling for Dwayne Bowe to Buffalo for some time.....but an additional thing to keep in mind is Buffalo might want to keep him AWAY from Miami...... Ryan Tannahill is already showing to be a good pick.....pair him up with Bowe and we could be having serious problems for years to come..... You trade for him to strengthen OUR team and keep him away from THEIR team
San Jose Bills Fan Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I'd love the move. And not that I'm a big fan of Cassel, but he is younger and has more upside than Fitz. Let's package them. Cassell is one of the small handful of QBs who's not as good or at best, just as good as Fitz. I would say this is a lateral move except that Fitz is intimate with the offense where Cassell is probably not. If we get Bo that would be huge because we really need a #2. Chan was his OC in KC, but I did talk to an insider today about it. Seems like a non-answer, my friend. On another point, regardless of who would be the number one and who would be the number two, I'd bet Bowe is looking for a better deal than Stevie just signed. No way anyone trades without an extension You are most likely correct. No extension, no trade. nix tipped his hand bringing in WR robert meachem.... Good point. Miami can take him. Buffalo will need all of it's draft picks to trade up and get a QB next year. Possibly. There's no point trading away picks or starters for receiver talent until we solve the problem at QB. Bowe would just be wastded here and setup as another scapegoat for Fitz failings. Agreed. I think most wideouts who see themselves as stars would prefer to play with marquee QBs. I'd go so far as to say that Bowe wouldn't be excited about playing with Fitz. JMO.
calbear Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 It'd be great if we could get him for the equivalent of Marshawn's package. I'd be surprised if Nix isn't working this hard - Bowe is an LSU alum, and we all know how much Nix wants the Bills to be the all-SEC team. But Pioli is buds with Belichickenhead, so I doubt he's going to us or Miami. Pioli will do what's best for KC, but if it's a push between offers from Miami, Buffalo and another team, my gut says another teams gets him. That's all if he's willing to lose his fan base to admittedly rebuilding totally from the ground up - again. I think he ultimately stays in KC.

calbear Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Wait - here's a paranoid thought... Anyone think he'd trade Bowe and a draft pick for Welker? Seems like something the Pats would do - get rid of the non-conformist as they did Seymour, get a great player in return that can fill in capably, and somehow get the better of the deal? TOTAL speculation - but what do you all think?

Mark Vader Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I have been scouting for a while, and I will say this: If Landry Jones is not the guy in Buffalo I would be disapointed. He is a great QB, and I see people dropping him. He is going to be fine Very interesting, because Jones is the QB I want the Bills to avoid. I am not impressed by him at all, but we all have our opinions.
folz Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Bowe would be another weapon that defenses would have to worry about. I don't think they're worried about Donald and T.J. Teams feel they can cover them one on one. But, if you have Stevie, Bowe, Chandler, and one or both RBs in on a play, all of a sudden they can't squat on the short routes or consistently bring their safeties in the box because anyone of those guys can get upfield. If you leave either Stevie and/or Bowe one on one all day, I guarantee Fitz will look a lot better and throw for a lot of yards (so stop the who's gonna get the ball too them crap) and if you try to double them both or cheat your safeties to them, then the running game becomes wide open. And then they have to cheat to stop the run and all of a sudden the passing game is open again. One, extra, legit, dangerous target (that a team has to gameplan for) can totally change how defenses play us. I doubt we can land Bowe, but you never know, none of us thought Mario would come here. Who knows, maybe with the Chan connection and Stevie talking him up...But if he really is available for a trade, I think the Bills should pull out all of the stops to get him (especially if the other option is him going to a divisional rival).

eball Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Bowe for Stevie? I'd consider if they threw in some of their draft picks Jesus Christ some of the stuff I read here amazes me. Yeah, let's trade the one WR we have who can't be covered one-on-one.
coastalpika Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Bowe's career stats: http://www.nfl.com/player/dwaynebowe/2495558/profile Gailey was his OC in 2008. And Tyler Thigpen was his QB.
HOUSE Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Who's going to throw him passes? Certainly not Fitz, unless Bowe can run a 5 yard slant pattern
Beerball Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 we should take the opportunity to stack our offense for our drafted fitzplacement next year... fitzplacement...I like it and I will steal the term and convince everyone that i used it first!
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I think most wideouts who see themselves as stars would prefer to play with marquee QBs. I'd go so far as to say that Bowe wouldn't be excited about playing with Fitz. JMO. Most marquee QB have a stable of quality wideouts as targets already. No one wants to move into a "take a number, Bub!" situation. One might also consider that for whatever reason, a lot of last year's top QB seem to be struggling this year (Cutler, Stafford, Newton, Romo, Freeman, Rivers) I doubt we can land Bowe, but you never know, none of us thought Mario would come here. Who knows, maybe with the Chan connection and Stevie talking him up...But if he really is available for a trade, I think the Bills should pull out all of the stops to get him (especially if the other option is him going to a divisional rival). Pull out all the stops? Because landing Mario (by pulling out all the stops) and Anderson has worked out so well for us? We need a couple of quality WR, there's no question. When I watch other games, I'm amazed by how other WR pull in catches that are ahead of them, or over their heads, that we would be saying "Fitz over threw him", or adjust their pace or "go back" for the ball. Just as we haven't seen a top QB in so long we've kinda forgotten what it looks like, we haven't seen a top WR in so long we've likewise forgotten. I just question the value of "pulling out all the stops". Does it get us a guy who is "too cool for school"? People bringing Fitz into this conversation are short-sighted. What every young freshly-drafted QB needs is a stable of wiley top-notch veterans who can catch whatever he throws. That said, I don't know as I would rather have star draftee than a vet, but we need linebackers and a QB too, so we have to fill something through trade or FA. I think KC is going to tell him to suck it up and stay put, though. He's not very attractive trade bait on a 1 yr deal.
peterpan Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 So Bowe wants out in KC, where is is playing for one of maybe two other teams who could claim to have a worse QB than the Bills, and we think he is going to sign an extension with us.....? Doubtful. Besides, WR isn't our problem. He have a number of WRs who are constantly open. The only WR worth pursuing at this point would be one with a track record of being able to throw himself the ball!!!!
