I think the Bills might have to throw in a draft pick to get this deal done. Surtain, Nate and McGee would give the Bills a pretty solid secondary along with Milloy and Vincent.

That secondary sounds great, but you're right, we'd need to offer a pick, maybe even a 2nd. Would you do it? He's due an outrageous contract, but we may be prepared to spend on that position with Nate needing a new deal soon. I'd do it.

yes i would do it. surtain would just be another person thrown into the mix of stoping t-hen when we played against him... we really wont need him seeing as t-hen cant go without tripping over a yard line...

It would be about $5.8million against the Bills cap if they were to trade for him

ESPN says $6.15M

 

Surtain is entering the final year of a contract that pays him $6.15 million in 2005 and has a cap number of $8.383 million.

If it helps us at another position (TE, DL, CB), weakens the Dolphins at the position and keeps them from getting a better RB than Travis at the same time, I'm good with it.

Our secondary is just about the last thing we should be worrying about.

I beg to differ. McGee has ability, but I don't think he's the long-term answer at CB, at least not our starting CB (i.e. nickel). And while I like Nate, he's due some big money next year, and if we're gonna spend, I'd rather have Surtain.

problem is that surtain carries something like an 8 mil cap figure...

Surtain costs the Dolphins 8.5

 

His base salary is 5.85 which would be the cap figure of any team whom he was traded to would have to assume, and how much the Dolphins save by getting rid of him.

 

Any team that wants Surtain is going to negotiate a contract extension anyways because Surtain is a UFA after this season.
