akm0404 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 You missed my question, sir. If tendering MG at a Round 2 value was such a no brainer that any competent GM would do, why did no other team put in an offer sheet for him over the past 6 weeks?

Dr. Who Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 He fractured her face and needed surgery. I would hate having him on the Bills. I am under the impression that character is a big part of McD's criteria. I'd be surprised if he is on our draft board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it was arguably in self-defense, and occurred 3 years ago. I don't think you should blacklist someone for life for something like this.

quinnearlysghost88 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Let him walk. Take the pick and the cap savings and let's move along. We turned a street free agent into a pick in 1.5 years. Not too bad... we turned a street free agent into the defending super bowl winner's next starting RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I'd call the Pats** bluff. Thanks for the 5th rounder. Now perhaps we can trade into the 4th if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Here's a solid replacement for him. Not sure where he will go, but I suspect he'll slide past our new 5th round pick (if they don't match). Sameje Perine. 5'10" 235 lb. bull. https://youtu.be/0-hxd55alKE Yes, please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Bet one of those 5ths is Chad Kelly. Trade down in the first twice, and they will have tons of picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 we turned a street free agent into the defending super bowl winner's next starting RB. Mike performed well for us, but his running style troubles me as a possible starter. I remember him taking a few big hits. If you increase the workload then so do the amount of those big hits. I don't think he makes it the whole year. Just my 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three years ago he was old enough to know the difference between right and wrong . It's not like he " forgot" to pay for some crab legs or something. No thanks...

Eric Moulds on my A** Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 No idea, but the team that just won the Super Bowl and perennial winner of the NFL just gave him one. It's not hard to see they're selling out for Brady's limited remaining shelf life. Let them. We aren't in the same position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 No idea, but the team that just won the Super Bowl and perennial winner of the NFL just gave him one. Again , who cares? They would win with or without the M Gillislee's of the world. Go hang on the Pats board. You'd be much happier there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 On the surface, this is very frustrating. The Bills offense is the most run-heavy in the NFL. Our starting running back will be 29 when the season starts and entering his 9th year as a pro. Having a strong backup RB is very important. Especially for us. From what I understand the RFA tender to make Gillislee basically untouchable (nobody would give up a 2nd Rounder for him) would have been less than $1 million more. Now it will cost us an additional $2 million to match New England's offer. Our compensation for letting him go would only be a 5th Rounder, which has netted us the following players in the last couple drafts: Jonathan Williams, Karlos Williams, Cyril Richardson, Jonathan Meeks. That is the track record of our scouting department and Doug Whaley. In my opinion, Gilislee is way more valuable than any of those guys. Like many on this board, my patience with Whaley has grown very thin. I'm tired of the excuses. I want results. In my opinion, the guy gets 2017 to get this team back into the playoffs. Considering how much this team will depend on McCoy to get this team there, I think this was a stupid gamble to play with his primary backup. We will know for sure when fall hits.

dubs Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) Reading these comments is hilarious. You'd think we just let John Elway in his prime walk out of here for nothing. He's a nice player, not making a difference for the Bills. At this point the smart play is to let him walk and take the extra 5th rounder. If the teams were reversed people on this board would be saying that letting other teams overpay and getting draft picks in return is the Patriot Way.
