Rico Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 better than getting nothing in return. He was going to be cut. Mabin beat him out. Yeah, any trades today are to get a jump on the waiver wire. Clay was most likely getting cut too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I mean what could compare to the utter brain storming that goes on around here? Like everyone always says, if you're looking for intelligence football message boards should be your first stop. Right. As a refugee, I'm being told I'm in the presence of football genius's. I just have yet to find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 No, I was saying everyone saying that he sucked and is the same as the WR we traded for was ridiculous. Got it- I got a bit confused on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I might be misunderstanding but are you saying Seymour is bad based on that? Cause it means he went more snaps between allowing receptions than any other rookie Like i implied, not sure why Bills are not keeping Seymour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Like i implied, not sure why Bills are not keeping Seymour Can you imagine the reaction one year ago on cut day if someone said "I bet not only Gilmore is gone but Darby, NRC, Seymour by this time next year" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaCrispy Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 This team will be lucky to win four games. Sure hope McCoach knows what he's doing. If the goal is to get the top QB, sounds like he's doing a pretty good job so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewin Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Did Seymour even play this preseason? He was fighting injuries for a lot of camp. Last preseason game he was in late in the 4th Q with the deep deep scrubs and allowed at least two completions - I felt then his time might be up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Can you imagine the reaction one year ago on cut day if someone said "I bet not only Gilmore is gone but Darby, NRC, Seymour by this time next year" still trying to fathom it honestly.

Houston's #1 Bills Fan Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I cant believe that some people seem so upset over this trade. I feel like some are looking for any reason to complain about this new regime... What has Seymour ever done in his time here? He's never impressed me on the field, anyway. He showed maybe a couple small glimpses of talent but that's about it, and he hasn't been able to stay healthy. The guy was a 6th round pick for a reason, and he got beat out for a spot on the roster IMO. This seems like a pretty inconsequential trade overall. Definitely nothing to get upset over. We swapped 2 players that were drafted in the 6th round, and we got a 7th back (one round later than where Seymour was drafted). That's very good asset management IMO. Better than the way things were handled in the past. Clay had a pretty strong camp and preseason from what I read. He's got the speed to be a deep threat for us, which is something that was needed. So we swapped a guy that got beat out and was likely,going to be cut, for a WR that has a decent chance to stick on our roster plus a pick. This!!

Kmart128 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 why did we trade our #3 CB for a #5 WR? Johnson is our Nickle CB. He obviously lost the battle. And with Gaines and Wright we really didnt need Seymour. Gaines is playing fantastic. And Wright is our #4 so Seymour may have been in danger of being cut.

Domdab99 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Guys, we did not pick up Klay to be a big contributor as a WR. He was 4th in the league last year returning punts. He's our new punt returner. And if he can return kicks, too, he will make Tate expendable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 @joebuscaglia He was not a starting nickel corner in Buffalo in 2017. Leonard Johnson beat him flat out for that role this summer. He was given first-team opportunities when healthy and failed to capitalize on them. why did we trade our #3 CB for a #5 WR? we didn't trade our #3 CB. Seymour wasn't going to make the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) thank you...you go ahead and agree with everything they're doing. I'll continue to disagree...Im reasonable and im with you. This doesn't make sense. And i dont have to like it. I love how these guys have acquired picks for 2019 that means they assume they have time. They better win soon or we will have a new guy. How can you trust the process when it just spins it's wheels. Edited September 2, 2017 by Agent 91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
