Augie Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Glenn average? He has been great so far in his carreer for us. We would be stupid to trade him. I'm quite glad to know the asking price was steep, that tells me the FO wants thim to be part of the "process" Sometimes it's best to just ignore what you know is silly....LT is a critical position. He's a very good one. I'd trade anybody for the right price, but sometimes that price is mighty steep.
Peter Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Trading Glenn would be a mistake based purely on his ability. In my view, the guy also is a warrior given how he came back from his health issue. P.S. I also hope, if they trade him or anyone else, we do not give any discounts.
John from Riverside Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Wrong, Peterman has all the tools and is ready to start now. Too bad the Pegulas weren't meddling owners like Ralph Wilson or they probably would have told this regime to bench and cut Taylor. I wonder if you even realize that you have contadicted yourself in your last 2 posts
Noogie75 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Everyone has been off this week. Lets see what they do this week. Maybe they've been planning something. Also for gods sake can we please give Zay a season before calling him a bust? TT makes every player look bad.
Hedge Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 There is a whole lot of stank coming off of the initial tweet, as well as the article that was linked, regarding any trade talks. Glenn's price tag is not exactly a secret. So, how do trade talks stall over his price tag? Are we supposed to believe that no one in the Seahawks organization has the ability to look up a contract that was filed with the NFL? Or at least thought to look at something like RotoWorld, like any average joe could: http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/7482/cordy-glenn They could have stalled over the trade compensation, but the price tag? I don't think so.
njbuff Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) I find it comical that if Glenn is now healthy, the coaching staff is not committed to starting Glenn at LT. If this is true (I have my doubts), did McDermott get in the head hard while doing his morning MMA session at some point this week? If Glenn is healthy, it seems pretty much a total non-issue who should start at LT. If everyone is healthy, all us Bills fans KNOW what the starting 5 should be across the board........ LT Glenn LG Incognito C Wood RG Miller RT Dawkins If they are all healthy and this is NOT your 5 best OLmen on the field............... this is beyond aggravating to me and probably most of this fan base. Even the dumbest Bills fan knows that Vlad and Mills shouldn't be anywhere near your starting lineup if everyone is healthy. Maybe if McDermott put out that starting 5 and left it alone, it could have the potential to turn their offensive season around, no matter the skill position talent. Edited October 16, 2017 by njbuff
HansLanda Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 This whole roster is getting blown up and somehow they are in contention in the AFC. I am almost willing to buy into the 'process,' at this point. I have to say that all of the current moves look fine. Yes, no QB, but Tre looks like a stud even though we passed on D Watson and Mahomes.
NewEra Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Sureee LaCanfora. If it is true, glad to hear that the Seahawks have learned that we don't give away our best players for nuthin anymore. What a bargain we gave them for Beast Mode smh Tank Carder and the great Chris Hairston. Sigh
HansLanda Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I am convinced that JlC gets all his 'intel' from agents - those with an agenda. Are some of his hot takes legit? Sure. But there are calls made about tons of players!
K D Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 They shouldn't be making any long term plans with this OL. They will be looking for a new offensive coordinator and line coach very soon at this rate
billsfan89 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I suspect (That if this is true) That the Bills probably wanted Seattle's 3rd rounder in 2018 plus a 4th or better in 2019. It seems like that Seattle without their 2018 2nd rounder and a team unlikely to part with their 1st for Glenn would have to build a package around their 3rd rounder and a future pick. Considering the hefty cost of Glenn's contract it is likely that Seattle would be looking to part with a mid round pick and a later round pick. Its all speculation on my part but I have to think the Bills are not looking to give Glenn away.
Saxum Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 @bufffanatics Per Jason La Canfora, Seahawks made a serious inquiry to acquire #Bills LT Cordy Glenn. Talks stalled due to ⬆️ price tag/assets in return. I am sure this is from La Conjecture's inside source, same one he made up multiple times.
BobbyC81 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Remember the deadline is Halloween, so there is still plenty of time for a trade to culminate. The Bills are probably the ones that would leak such a story to try and drum up interest. If I had to guess the Bills are probably asking for a 3rd rounder and a young relatively unknown player on a cheap rookie deal. I do remember them wanting to sign CB, DeShawn Shead this offseason before he ended up resigning with the Seahwaks. I see he's still on the PUP. I'd be pleased with Shead and a 3rd. 30 years ago on Halloween the Bills pulled off the Cornelius Bennett deal, which some said was the last piece in creating those great Super Bowl teams. Get 'er done, Beane!! Baldwin and Jimmy Graham?
Charles Romes Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 The only way you trade him is if the foot injuries are never going away. If the foot injuries are never going away the doctors should be able to figure that out and he's not worth much.
JMF2006 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) I have a feeling this is a feeler by the FO to gauge fan resentment to a deal. If it looks more or less positive then they will pull the trigger. Edited October 16, 2017 by JMF2006
YoloinOhio Posted October 16, 2017 Author Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) I don't think the Bills are trying to gauge fan resentment ... It doesn't even look like it came from them. It moreso appears to be a leak from the Seahawks FO that they are trying to improve the OL which is their fan base's biggest gripe. That's why the report includes both Glenn and Duane Brown.

papazoid Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Cordy Glenn has the 2nd highest cap hit +$14 mil for offensive lineman in the league. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/rankings/cap-hit/offensive-line/ is he the 2nd most talented ?....no he is not. if there ever was a deal, it would be to clear out that cap hit and spread the cap/risk of injury over 2 or 3 players.
TPS Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Cordy Glenn has the 2nd highest cap hit +$14 mil for offensive lineman in the league. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/rankings/cap-hit/offensive-line/ is he the 2nd most talented ?....no he is not. if there ever was a deal, it would be to clear out that cap hit and spread the cap/risk of injury over 2 or 3 players. Correct. fixing the cap mess is one of the main factors underlying the dareus and Glenn trade rumors.
papazoid Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 on the flip side, if cordy glenn was in the 2018 draft.....he'd be a top 10 pick. i'd say the bills wanted at least seattle's 2nd & 4th or their late 1st. there is plenty of time left and both parties likely want it....it still may get done.
