YoloinOhio Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Is it worth noting that TJ Graham was one of the worst receivers in the NFL last season? Why would Seattle want him? To run the Percy Harvin part of their offense until he comes back in Nov. The # of proven WRs in the NFL is really thin. I don't think they would offer a ton for him, but I do think they would want him. Plus, if he can return kicks he is valuable to any team.
BillnutinHouston Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Rogers will stub his toe in the third preseason game and be placed on IR I am thinking the same thing.
nucci Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Proven enough that a team like the Chargers would likely trade for any of them yeah, Chargers are hurting a bit aren't they?
Meatloaf Sandwich Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Where did this come from? LG will be fine.
YoloinOhio Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 yeah, Chargers are hurting a bit aren't they? A lot, and the guys they have that are healthy they don't like (i.e. Meachem). They play tonight so we'll see. They are likely waiting for the cuts so they can sign some guys ASAP. Also we can check out Chad Reinhardt, he starts there now. They will never deal him, or any OL though, that was a huge need and they did well.
cage Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I think Brad Smith might be tradeable...all the young (but admittedly unproven) talent on the roster. Plus, he did re-do his contract. Wonder if we could get anything for Lindell orZSanders? I like that idea much better! I think he's become expendable. If we needed to throw in a pick w/ Smith, I like that better than w/ Graham.

Is it worth noting that TJ Graham was one of the worst receivers in the NFL last season? Why would Seattle want him? Wow! I guess I am in the minority in beieving that TJ was not so great, in part, because he didn't have a QB who could play to his strenghts...he was, essentially, relegated to being a possession receiver, because Fitz couldn't take advantage of his speed. I seem to recall, especially early in the season, that TJ was getting open down field...

Seattle's in a position where they need to wait until November for Harvin and are potentially a Super Bowl contending team,... Brad Smith is the surer choice for their needs. I'm liking this idea a lot. If this gave us a young starting LG, I'd have no problem throwing in a low round draft pick w/ Smith. Would rather keep TJ, not going to dismiss him because of some rookie year struggles Edited August 15, 2013 by cage
BuffaninATL Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Their really is no chance, they'll never part with they're good players there their they're......ouch that was painful to read
metzelaars_lives Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Doubtful, I think Wood was already a starter for the Bills when Lynch was drafted..... Really? Lynch has been in the league two years longer than Wood.

I seem to recall, especially early in the season, that TJ was getting open down field... He led the league in drop percentage and ran terrible routes - one of which led to a crushing loss in a game the Bills should have won because of a strong performance by Fitzpatrick. I mean, is everyone blind? He was AWFUL. I'm not saying he can't get better (he is fast), but why would any team who doesn't subsist on Bills-hope think he'd be any good?
Trader Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 The Bills are not so happy with there Left guard Situation and we have a problem with having a ton of talent at WR. So lets play the trade game. I got an idea, I believe the Bills should be giving the Seahawks a call for either LG John Moffitt or James Carpenter. Both players are young gems listed on there 2nd unit behind there veteran oline. The Seahawks are loaded upfront and can afford to make a deal like this considering there lack of a depth at WR and player that can stretch the field .TJ fits there needs 2 fold. This deal also makes sense for the Bills. We can kill 2 birds with 1 stone here. Besides getting a huge upgrade at left guard we also get to push our WR depth up by 1 player making the last cuts more reasonable.. Right now as is we will be cutting a WR or 2 that will be picked up right away by another team. I would hate to be in Whaley shoes right now with that decision to make.. So why not cash in on our WR talent to get better at another position of need? Wr core after trade SJ13, Woods, Goodwin, Rogers, and we can keep 2 out the next 3 Easley, Hogan or B Smith. We will still have plenty of Speed . Plus we might be able to sneak Hogan on the ps. If not him then Kaufman. Oline after trade Pears, Urbik, Wood, Moffitt, Glenn. Moffitt is a mauling run blocking guard and is good in pass pro. I have liked Moffitt since his college days at Wisconsin. I proposed a WR trade earlier in the year. We can't keep them all. So what if they are unproven. Lets trade for an unproven Guard who has a lot of upside. I also think that player for player trades are back in vogue after being unpopular for a lot of years.
mrags Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I've got a great idea. Why don't we trade Hogan for Adrian Peterson, Tom Brady, Calvin Johnson, and Darrell Revis(only because we need a CB)??? Sounds like a fair trade to me. Oh, and well were at it, we should also trade our 5th and 6th round picks to the Pats for their next 3 first round picks.
transient Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 ...Hardly peanuts I would think? I'm Ron Burgundy?
yungmack Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 It seems like a lot of drunks have clustered around this trade nonsense. Skoal boys!
Dragonborn10 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Wait for guys to get cut. If both of these guys are on the second team maybe one of them gets cut as no team can keep too many extra lineman especially if they can not play tackle.
SBUffalo Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Doubtful, I think Wood was already a starter for the Bills when Lynch was drafted..... You're not serious, right?
Matt in KC Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I just watched the Colts PS game again and was surprised to see that Colin Brown did a really good job. He was getting solid push in the run game and was fine in pass protection. If Brown can string together a couple PS games like that, I'm fine with him starting. That said, Doug Legurski really looked horrible in the second half against weaker opposition. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets cut and replaced by a cut from another team.
