LB3 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 No doubt. But didn't McCoy mention giving some feedback to Gore during his pc? Regardless, Kelly comes across as a douche. GO BILLS!!! I don't know about the press conference, but he did say that in an NFL Network interview right after. He jokingly said something like, "I told him not to go there". Then he did he was just playing but that he did tell Gore what the deal was because they're boys.
YoloinOhio Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I feel bad that he will go on IR after playing the Bills

McCoy mentioned his conversation with Gore in that NFLN interview. Thanks for the clarification. And Kelly is still a douche. GO BILLS!!!
Jauronimo Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Correct me if I'm omitting relevant details from McCoy's existing contract pre-extension, but did Chip really just trade Shady because he cost too much and then sign Murray to a deal very similar to what LeSean is now earning?

GO BILLS!!! This is quickly becoming very apparent. Blaming last year's first round pick on the previous GM while that player is still on the team was an unusual admission to put it nicely.

Loves white LBs named Kiko who went to Oregon. It was not about money and he lied. I hope shady runs all over his a**. Edited March 12, 2015 by YoloinOhio
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Murray to sign five-year deal with Eagles worth more than $40M
flyingant Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I love to see Philly and Buffalo on Monday night this year.
section122 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 they weren't selling him that. Bradford was. i would be shocked if Bradford was still on the team after draft day I would like to make a bet with you. Can be a signature bet, can be a donation to charity bet but you are extremely wrong on this imo. Just like you were wrong about Kiko and Murray for the same price as Shady. Murray signed a deal for more money even though it was slightly less guaranteed. Add in that he is injury prone, older, and they owe dead for money for Shady this didn't turn out quite as great for the Eagles as you thought. Other things I am willing to bet on: Murray doesn't play all 16 games next year Bradford not only is on the roster for the Eagles but (barring injury) is named the starter
TheFunPolice Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 This offseason seems like a lot more fun than normal, and really it's just a few teams wheeling and dealing. And the Bills are one of them! And of course the Eagles because everyone is obsessed with Chip Kelly!
Buffalo Barbarian Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 DeMarco Murray goes to Philly! Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 11m11 minutes ago DeMarco Murray's deal with Eagles is expected to be 5 years, $42 million, including $21 million guaranteed, per @mortreport and I. we should have signed him and kept Kiko. Eagles won this trade. This is quickly becoming very apparent. Blaming last year's first round pick on the previous GM while that player is still on the team was an unusual admission to put it nicely. That is probably why that GM is gone and Kelly is calling the shots. i'm cheering for chip..... he makes things interesting Also if he can make that offense work it will make it easier to win without getting a franchise QB, which would really help the League out by making more teams competitive.
Doc Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) we should have signed him and kept Kiko. Eagles won this trade. That is probably why that GM is gone and Kelly is calling the shots. Way too early to say who won what. Edited March 12, 2015 by Doc
K-9 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 we should have signed him and kept Kiko. Eagles won this trade. That is probably why that GM is gone and Kelly is calling the shots. By what objective criteria, exactly? Never mind that you proclaim winners and losers in a trade months before a down of football has been played by anyone involved since. GO BILLS!!!
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Chip trades his all Pro RB for a promising defensive prospect because the RB is at the age where they start to drop off and he costs too much money. Fair enough. Chip aquires an older RB with a worse injury history, more wear and tear and pays him more money than his first player. GENIUS
Buffalo Barbarian Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 By what objective criteria, exactly? Never mind that you proclaim winners and losers in a trade months before a down of football has been played by anyone involved since. GO BILLS!!! That we gave up an asset for a RB that could have been gotten by getting a similar RB in FA.
K-9 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 That we gave up an asset for a RB that could have been gotten by getting a similar RB in FA. Are you familiar with the term, "a bird in the hand...?" Or are you a GM that defers acquiring a sure thing a week before free agency starts for nothing more than the opportunity to have a chance at getting someone "similar?" And that assumes Murray would have granted you the opportunity in the first place. It's mind-boggling, really. GO BILLS!!!
YoloinOhio Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 That we gave up an asset for a RB that could have been gotten by getting a similar RB in FA. we don't know if the Bills liked Murray or that Murray would like the bills. He never looked at the Eagles until Bradford went there and then he got all nostalgic for his Sooner days and had to have it. He also seemingly wanted to stick it to Jerruh by going to a rival.
Perry Turtle Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 That we gave up an asset for a RB that could have been gotten by getting a similar RB in FA. That's if all other things remain equal. You're making the assumption that Chip doesn't trade McCoy to a team other than the Bills. If Chip was determined to dump McCoy, regardless of the trading partner, McCoy might have ended up in Oakland or Jax. The Bills would have found themselves in a bidding war for Murray, which would have cost them much than they're paying McCoy.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Anyone who has played fantasy football knows what a health risk Murray is. I would put money on him ring out between 3-6 games per year. Then their hedge is Ryan Matthews, who is even riskier?
