Big C Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 This is a fail. RB's are a dime a dozen and are only good for 5 yrs. McCoy has maybe 2 good years left in him. And he's definitely not a "ground and pound" back. This makes no sense. I'm in shock right now. We needed a QB. If you are going to trade our best young player then get a QB!!! We won't get an elite QB for that price. We have possibly the best defense in the league. We don't want to waste it.
YoloinOhio Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Kiko wanted out @JasonLaCanfora: Can confirm ESPN report Eagles have traded Shady McCoy for Kiko Alonso. One for one trade I'm told. Alonso had wanted out of Buffalo. Wow
klos63 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 The biggest change in our defense this past year personnel wise was Spikes for Kiko - our defense was significantly better this past year. Kiko was moving to a new position because he wasn't good enough to play in the middle. Fans love him, but he is overrated. He may turn out to be very good, but McCoy is special. Love the trade
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 I'm excited about this. I am a fan of both guys, but we need someone like Shady. One of the best runners in the league and Kiko is coming off ACL,plus we are deep at LB.
BillsBytheBay Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Please tell me the Bills wouldn't trade the DROY. That wouldn't actually happen would it? Would it?!
The Dean Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Haven't read through the thread and haven't had time to fully process it. But my initial reaction is: I hate this trade. I'm already thinking of reasons why it might be a positive sign, but gut feeling says "bad trade".
Deranged Rhino Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Had 4 good games as a rookie, tailed off considerably and coming off major knee injury...McCoy is in his prime Yup. Don't try to reason with Proteus, he's in full blown tantrum mode. Kiko wanted out @JasonLaCanfora: Can confirm ESPN report Eagles have traded Shady McCoy for Kiko Alonso. One for one trade I'm told. Alonso had wanted out of Buffalo. Wow Have fun in Philly, Kiko, those fans are brutal.
Big C Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Kiko wanted out @JasonLaCanfora: Can confirm ESPN report Eagles have traded Shady McCoy for Kiko Alonso. One for one trade I'm told. Alonso had wanted out of Buffalo. Wow Weird. Why?
Gestes72 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Seriously McCoy makes the O way better, Kiko is coming off an ACL and the Bills have had many LB over the years that have gotten hurt and never been the same for example Sam Cowart and a few others. This is a great deal period.
klos63 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 FALSE. Top 3 RB'S are NOT a dime a dozen. This has been repeated in this thread. And it's wrong. Exactly, if they are a dime a dozen, where were ours?
billieve420 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 At least it was a straight up deal and Bills didn't toss in extra picks
stevestojan Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 LeSean !@#$ing McCoy is a Buffalo Bill and people are pissed?
Deranged Rhino Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Haven't read through the thread and haven't had time to fully process it. But my initial reaction is: I hate this trade. I'm already thinking of reasons why it might be a positive sign, but gut feeling says "bad trade". You get arguably the top RB in the game (top 3 at worst), in his prime, locked in for three years. He fits Roman's scheme, can do everything (block, catch, run). In exchange you give up a very popular player, but a guy who's shredded the same knee twice and who didn't want to be here. It's a win.
Proteus Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Shady is in his PRIME. The only reason for his numbers dipping is CHIP KELLY. But, facts are hard to digest when you're panties are in a bunch. Yea, Shady's numbers are down because of Chip Kelly is a fact, such a moron.
Deranged Rhino Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 LeSean !@#$ing McCoy is a Buffalo Bill and people are pissed?
disco Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Please tell me the Bills wouldn't trade the DROY. That wouldn't actually happen would it? Would it?! Nobody traded Sheldon Richardson.
truth on hold Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Kiko wanted out @JasonLaCanfora: Can confirm ESPN report Eagles have traded Shady McCoy for Kiko Alonso. One for one trade I'm told. Alonso had wanted out of Buffalo. Wow weird, he was worshipped here
DC Grid Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 If Kiko isn't crippled for life this makes no sense at all.
