Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 No way to Doug Martin. He is beyond horrible CBF
C.Biscuit97 Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 No way to Doug Martin. He is beyond horrible CBF So I had Martin and have Adrian Peterson in my keeper fantasy league. Surprisingly, I'm doing bad. I have no idea what happened to Martin. He probably just got overrated by one monster game as a rookie. Call me crazy, but I'd honestly be willing to trade Hughes for a top 5 guard. i think Hughes is an absolute stud, but I think one of the league's premiere guards would benefit this team more than the drop off from Hughes to Byrant/Wynn/Charles would hurt them. I'll call you crazy. Passrushers are worth a million times more than a G. And the backups benefit from Hughes and the starters getting the oline tired. They get to come in fresh. Hughes is an animal and part of the strength of our team, the defense. I would not want to weaken them at all.

PromoTheRobot Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) For the life of me I can't understand this GM going forward with the current OG's, as both still stink even with Urbik in there. What happens if marginally better Urbik gets injured? Richardson again? Many teams are lacking guards, not just the Bills. You act like Whaley can just run out and get someone better at Wal-Mart. They tried to get better in free agency and the draft. It didn't work. But as I said there is probably less guard talent than QB talent in the NFL right now. Edited October 28, 2014 by PromoTheRobot
QB Bills Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Mark Barron is on the trade block?? Isn't that who the Bills were targeting when they picked Gilmore? What happened to him? He was supposed to be the next stud safety.

I would not want to weaken them at all. How about for a Tackle that's better than Cordy Glenn? If we had someone better than Glenn there would be zero reason not to push Glenn to another position. New guy = LT, Glenn = RT, Henderson = RG? With Urbik at LG. That one move could potentially upgrade 3 spots on the line.

I am not arguing with you at all, but isn't it funny how the guard position has traditionally been an afterthought for most...you don't realize how imortant they are, until your team doesn't have any good ones.

PromoTheRobot Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Well thats just wrong. I don't know. Think about how exotic pass rush schemes are today. Being an O-lineman is tougher now than ever.
17 Josh Allen Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 If I was running the Bills I would bring in Richie Ingognitio to play guard. I would then trade a futer draft pick to Tampa For Baron there Saftey. If you thought are Def was sick now you ain't seen nothing like what it could be If you add Baron to a already stacked Defense. I would also deal Spiller for what ever I could get for him.
TheBillsWillRiseAgain Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 I think our safeties have been doing great. I'd be willing to give up quite a bit to improve the Oline though.
GA BILLS FAN Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Nothing beats the NHL trade deadline, consistently the best of the 4 majors -- NFL is historically a snoozer --- maybe the transition to new schemes is too difficult or teams place to high a value on draft picks -- either way, I'm not expecting much
Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 I am expecting no trades today. By any team CBF
Jauronimo Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 I don't know. Think about how exotic pass rush schemes are today. Being an O-lineman is tougher now than ever. Well when you put it that way, its still just not even remotely correct. In fact it makes a stronger argument for the complexity of the QB position and has no bearing on the relative quantity of talent at the respective positions.
bowery4 Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 That was my first thought too. Imagine my confusion when I looked into the matter more and saw that John Skelton is a free agent right now. We don't even have to trade for him. We can just sign him. The question is, is he solid at guard?

26CornerBlitz Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 @RapSheet Names to watch at trade deadline: #Titans WR Nate Washington, CIN TE Jermaine Gresham, #Raiders DL Justin Tuck, #Rams DL Kendall Langford
PromoTheRobot Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 *I* want Richie Incognito. According to Joe B, Richie is "blackballed" by the entire league. He's never playing again. Well when you put it that way, its still just not even remotely correct. In fact it makes a stronger argument for the complexity of the QB position and has no bearing on the relative quantity of talent at the respective positions. We'll just have to disagree. To me the O-line play dictates how effective a QB is. And the decisions the O-line makes pre-snap make or break the play.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 @RapSheet Names to watch at trade deadline: #Titans WR Nate Washington, CIN TE Jermaine Gresham, #Raiders DL Justin Tuck, #Rams DL Kendall Langford I would love for the Bills to get Gresham CBF
