Roundybout Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Josh Reed was underrated. Great downfield blocker. He was a decent #3, or even a #2 on a dedicated running team. Would you rather have Poyer's girlfriend or David Nelson's girlfriend?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Whew! I was worried you would be upset. KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Understand, Not saying Cam was better either. My point is if I were a WR and got traded to Green Bay, Pitt, NE, or New Orleans, I'd say yes I have a QB now. Others, good, but not great. Happy for the deal, but didn't understand that comment Whose got the better record this year?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I mean, no......there is Dareus and the picks to Carolina........but Benjamin is a really good get for a 3 and a 7. Matthews likely won't be back now.......this probably seals his deal outta town.......he's a big slot( a "y") and Zay Jones is a big slot. Matthews can play some Z but Benjamin would be the Z ideally and he's making $8M next year........Benjamin might be able to be the X but they would probably want Thompson there for sheer speed(and cheap). Finally with the program, mister sunshine? I'm continuing my victory lap
Turk71 Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Wow, great news imo and a good deal as well. The fact that Mc Beane know him well should alleviate concerns about his character and commitment. Had no expectation this years Bills would be so exciting. Psyched for the rest of the season. Lets Go Buff a lo!! !!!
The Dean Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Josh Reed was extremely underrated. Great downfield blocker. He was a decent #3, or even a #2 on a dedicated running team. He also had great hands, which made that 1 1/2-2 year stretch where he dropped a crapload of passes, very odd. He didn't handle the #1 WR position well. And I think he was just smoking way too much pot, although I have no knowledge of that. But he seemed really high, most of the time. He did under-produce in the air for awhile, but he delivered in the run game.
Charlottebillsfan2 Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 This team is 5-2 and then you go and add a weapon that immediately changes how teams have to game plan for you. This locker room has to be fired up! Lets go win the division.
BmarvB Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Absolutely incredible!!!! Wasn't expecting that one. That helps a lot!
Happy Panther Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 This makes no sense as a Panthers season ticket holder. Bills win. This pisses Cam off, pisses off the fans. Who is the third option in Carolina? Ugh
SaviorPeterman Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 We basically traded Darby + 7th round pick for Jordan Matthews and Benjamin. Throw in a healthy Charles Clay down the stretch and all of a sudden this offense becomes very potent. This also helps guys like Thompson and Zay Jones considering the attention that opposing defenses are going to have to give to this unit now. POWER MOVES baby!
JMF2006 Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Panthers fans are going crazy over this, killing their GM. But we shall see how it works out for the Bills. I said in another thread that it could be dangerous trading for an established WR in season as it can wreck team chemistry................. or it could be a great enhancer to better things. Let's hope it's the latter. You see how excited we are? You bring in a great player like KB and the players get stoked to.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Likely everytime there's a commercial break on WGR, Schoop spends the entire time laughing at how he makes these comments and the rating go through the roof as everyone is talking about his show. i tuned in too and he was whining about why panthers didnt want him ... turned it off

John from Riverside Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I think i am ok with the 3rd and 7th. Not getting the caliber of player of Benjamin in the 3rd round this year. I wonder if we cut the necessary players like Holmes to get that 3rd rounder back
Kaenon Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 So the Bills trade looks like this: photo attached.
HumbleAndHungry Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Kelvin Benjamin Jordan Matthews Charles Clay that's a solid solid receiving group. Just imagine if Zay Jones suddenly takes off this position of weakness suddenly becomes a position of strength great move Edited October 31, 2017 by Finkle Is Einhorn
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Gilmore cant be thrilled with having to face him twice this year! 3 times
SaviorPeterman Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 I wonder if we cut the necessary players like Holmes to get that 3rd rounder back No point in doing that now John, Holmes can still contribute. Also Davis and Vlad aren't going anywhere and they would also need to be cut.
H2o Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 This team is 5-2 and then you go and add a weapon that immediately changes how teams have to game plan for you. This locker room has to be fired up! Lets go win the division. Can you imagine how this will further open things up for Shady once Benjamin catches a couple of deep passes and the Safeties can't cheat up towards the LOS? This is a move that helps tremendously.
yungmack Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Another decoy for Tyrod as he panics and checks down. Hopefully a new QB next year can maximixe his value. We thank you for your joyful comments, Pasta Joe.
