Peter Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Prediction: In a year or two, Reggie Ragland will be KC's version of Jerry Hughes (provided that Ragland is fully recovered from his injury).
QCity Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 So trading away Darby, Watkins, and Ragland for significantly less than their value isn't a fire sale? We haven't traded anyone for "significantly less than their value."
Straight Hucklebuck Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 This was not the mark of Levy's teams....plus you forgot blue collar and Buffalo guys....get all the cliches on one post That's what Marv and Jauron were building as GM/Coach respectively.
OldTimer1960 Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Great pick Whaley That was Rex's pick. Hard to criticize the pick - he was a great fit in the D he was drafted for and nobody could have predicted that he would tear his ACL.
CommonCents Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 We can be sure about one thing. All these trades show that the front office is aligned and they have a vision. Is it going to work? All we can do is hope. It can't be worse than the Rex/Whaley combo. This trade also serves as a reminder of that duo.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 @ChrisTrapasso #Bears really did well in '16 trade back w/ #Bills (for BUF to get Ragland) Netted Cody Whitehair, Deon Bush, Nick Kwiatkoski, Eddie Jackson
HT02 Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Nice so far Beane has turned two first round picks (Watkins) into one second round and a meh cb now a second round into a fourth.... great
Kelly the Dog Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Nice so far Beane has turned two first round picks (Watkins) into one second round and a meh cb now a second round into a fourth.... great I think we could still get a sixth for Kyle Williams.

All we can do is hope. It can't be worse than the Rex/Whaley combo. This trade also serves as a reminder of that duo. It can most certainly be worse than Rex/Whaley and for most of the last 17 years it has been. How have we as a fan base not learned this yet?
HT02 Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 I think we could still get a sixth for Kyle Williams. Nice! If we act quickly we we can trade White and Jones for a 5th pick in 2021!
CanadianFan Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 What a HAUL! WHAT A HAUL! WOOHOOO! WE'RE GOING TO SUPERBOWL!!!
mannc Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) Draft for 2nd and 4th, trade for 4th. Makes sense Wrong. Draft for 2nd and two 4ths. Another great Bills' trade-up. Edited August 28, 2017 by mannc
HT02 Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Prediction: In a year or two, Reggie Ragland will be KC's version of Jerry Hughes (provided that Ragland is fully recovered from his injury Wouldn't surprise me; talk about selling at the bottom of the market.
CanadianFan Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Nice so far Beane has turned two first round picks (Watkins) into one second round and a meh cb now a second round into a fourth.... great Let's trade the entire team for draft picks in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. That way, we finish 0-16, get 1st pick in 2018, and pay NO SALARY for this year. Great idea eh?
Bob in STL Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Nice so far Beane has turned two first round picks (Watkins) into one second round and a meh cb now a second round into a fourth.... great Well he could have lost Watkins for nothing and they might have cut Ragland and got nothing. I'll take the 2 and the 4.
BringBackOrton Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Not six? Doug as signed on for 7 years. He got 3 and then a 4 year extension. To match Rex's 5 year deal. How long of a contract you give someone is irrelevant if you can them early.
nucci Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 That's what Marv and Jauron were building as GM/Coach respectively. Sorry, didn't know you were referring to that. You just said Marv Levy teams
GunnerBill Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 No friggin way. Shoot me. I don't think they should extend Preston at this point. Let's see him play in this scheme this year. If he is back to his rookie form in a 4-3 then sure, extend him.
Boatdrinks Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 We can be sure about one thing. All these trades show that the front office is aligned and they have a vision. Is it going to work? All we can do is hope. It can't be worse than the Rex/Whaley combo. This trade also serves as a reminder of that duo. It doesn't show that they are aligned or have a vision that will work. They are doing a tear down but don't want to say that to the fans. Disingenuous really. It's a tear down rebuild and they are getting rid of the pices that don't fit their system. Except for the Watkins deal, which was just to avoid the possibility of looking bad when he had a good season and they didn't want to pay him. There is nothing saying their system will be better than Sexy Rexys for all we know. What sucks for the fans is that we know the organization spent a lot of draft capital on these players and the return for them is likely to produce role players or camp players at best.
