Coach55 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Another dumb front office move that will keep us out of the playoffs. Not only did we give up a top-tier back up, we gave him up to the Pats, our arch nemesis. Once again the Pats buy low. Mark my word - Gillislee will rush for 1200+ yards and contend for the league lead in rushing this year...
Haslett_Stomp Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Hmmm I can see the thread title now " blah blah, I'm still going to miss Gillislee blah blah.." Â Can't wait for the threads next season tracking his every move.
CommonCents Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 that's a really stupid take Let's see how it plays out. I'm taking the younger guy with lower mileage who will be able to maximize his carries playing against defenses that are spread out by an elite passing game.
Boatdrinks Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Hopefully jwill isnt suspended for his dui, mccoy doesnt get injured, and we draft a late round rb thats capable of getting 8 tds on 101 touches. Well fwiw MG was a 5th, Karlos was capable of scoring 7 TDs in 7 games and didn't even start out in College as an RB. Teams find productive RBs without high picks these days.
YoloinOhio Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 Cap space update: Â @salsports Roughly $12.5M right now and another $2.4M after June 1.
cba fan Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Thank god, that other thread can die.  I'll miss him, but man I want more picks. Maybe trade the Pats and Dallas fifths for a fourth. We know what you mean but this is still funny  2 -1 = 1. net loss = 1  Just math baby....
dubs Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Phew. Liked MG but no big deal and we pick up a draft pick. Â This feels like bizarro world. Pats overpay for a backup RB and have like 5RBs on the roster and Bills don't panic, take the cap space and mid round pick.
Boatdrinks Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Time to go get Blount. That's exactly what I've thought lately. An upgrade and a better change -up to Shady

Actually the Bills bought low when they picked up a RB off the scrap heap and sold high when they turned him into a 5th round pick.
Captain Murica Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Good move by the Bills not to act on emotion due to it being the patriots and match the offer.
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Another dumb front office move that will keep us out of the playoffs. Not only did we give up a top-tier back up, we gave him up to the Pats, our arch nemesis. Once again the Pats buy low. Mark my word - Gillislee will rush for 1200+ yards and contend for the league lead in rushing this year... Â how many yards would he have rushed for buffalo? 500 again? Maybe? Â Is the contract worth it if he runs for 500? What about if his replacement runs for 400? 4 million dollars for an extra hundred yards? Â But no - lets pay him for what he might accomplish with a better rb situation (hes not the defined #2), and with a better team. Edited April 24, 2017 by dneveu
CEN-CAL17 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 I wish teams could put any rd tender on their players. Â Pats got a great deal for Gillislee for a 5th. Â Bills probably couldn't have got a 3rd, but a 4th and a late 4th probably would be good for both teams. Â Three 5th round picks, plus a possible trade down may give us ammo to get additional picks in the 3rd.... Â Imagine a late 1st, two second rd picks and three 3rd round picks. It's possible.... we may not have those three 5ths when it's said and done but we may be able to deal for 5 or 6 picks in first 3 rounds
YoloinOhio Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Good move by the Bills not to act on emotion due to it being the patriots and match the offer. +1 McD doesn't have the Pats scar tissue and was able to take the emotion out of it and make the right decision for this team going forward Edited April 24, 2017 by YoloinOhio
CNY315 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Mark my word - Gillislee will rush for 1200+ yards and contend for the league lead in rushing this year... Can't see that with White and Burkhead back there as well Edited April 24, 2017 by CNY315
H2o Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Mike G. Will have more all purpose yards from this day forward than Shady. That's the red hot take. I think he has more time on the DL than Shady, but nowhere near more all purpose yards
