The Real Buffalo Joe Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Would we be interested? Would you trade Clay? http://www.nj.com/eagles/index.ssf/2015/03/eagles_still_trying_to_trade_evan_mathis.html Edited March 23, 2015 by The Real Buffalo Joe
gordon_g Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Really, you want to trade the guy they HAD to have in FA... interested yes, for a roster player or anything above a 4th pick, no
BringBackFergy Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Clay is really good. I don't know if I'd part with him. Mathis is really good too. Tough call.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted March 23, 2015 Author Posted March 23, 2015 Clay is really good. I don't know if I'd part with him. Mathis is really good too. Tough call. But we need a guard. Personally, I still say we hold out for a QB, because that's what we really need.
Jamie Nails Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I would trade my Jars of Clay discography, a signed 8x10 of Clay Aiken, some clay pigeons and a can of Clay Matthews' favorite Campbell's chunky soup. that is all
BringBackFergy Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 But we need a guard. Personally, I still say we hold out for a QB, because that's what we really need. I think we should strike while the iron's hot. Who knows where this team will be in four or five years when they revisit the "regionalization of the Bills" topic again...ya know how the NFL always pokes their nose in our affairs and the close proximity of Toronto. If Mathis is good and Clay is really good, then we should get something more.
billsfan89 Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I would trade a late rounder for him and maybe a low level player that Chip likes (Like Goodwin or some other marginal player with potential). I wouldn't deal the 3rd rounder for him but any other pick plus a late rounder next year or player seems like it would be a good price. Only issue is, Mathis wants a pay increase, that's why the Eagles want to trade him. That's why I don't see it happening, the team is going to draft O-line round 2.

If Mathis is good and Clay is really good, then we should get something more. Exactly. I mean, Clay is good. Mathis, also good. I like good players. I want this team to be good. However, who's better short term, while they're still here. The phone is ringing in Pegula's office, and caller ID shows the 905 area code.
GG Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Shady may be available if Bryce Brown really lights it up this spring.
BillsFanForever19 Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 No - but i'd offer them Leodis McKelvin.
QB Bills Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Probably could have got this guy along with McCoy for Kiko. Bit of a premature evaluation by Whaley there.
LA Grant Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Trade a receiver for Mathis. As much as I like Robert Woods, he could be expendable and we need real help on the interior O-Line. Now that we have Clay, I know I could live with WR Corp of Watkins/Harvin/Hogan.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Did anyone hear the rumor that the reason we signed Clay was to use him as trade bait? I think Schefter reported this (will try to find the link). Edited March 23, 2015 by JR in Pittsburgh
bills_fan Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Mathis was described in one article I read as excelling at zone blocking. I dont think Roman's scheme uses zone blocking, more straight ahead mauling from what I know about it (which I admit is very limited). I want a G or T as much as anyone and believe it would be the prefect cherry to a great offseason. But I want a guy who fits our scheme seamlessly if thats possible.
