He would be fine depth and cheap for another year or two, see if the light comes on. I still struggle in trading Ragland. he may not have been the ideal fit but he had/has upside How could you possibly have known that about Ragland? More importantly how can you know that about Lawson who was drafted hurt (fail) and when he’s been healthy has had zero pass rush impact? The guys trash and wouldn’t be a #2 de on any quality team.

Our draft scouts will be busy enough evaluating talent for the picks we do have. Why divert scouting focus to find a replacement for a player we already have. Because that player will have 4 years under a minimum contract. Pretty simple

Say it with me: Shaq Lawson is traaaaaash. You’re not gonna get anything more for him by carrying his dead weight for another year or two 1

This is Ragland 2.0 at it's finest if we do trade him, creating yet again another hole on this team. Some Bills fans are so damn fickle and will not even give a player 2 full seasons to develop into anything under one system. Truly sad the mindset of some around here. Joe, how many new jobs have you started were your just a rockstar the 1st year? It usually takes couple years to really start making a impact to your company. The exact same thing applies here.

Augie Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 You won’t get much for him, he’s still cheap, I don’t see the point. I’d give him another season. (My son vehemently disagrees, however...it seems to be personal for some reason!) 1

BillsVet Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 McD needs pressure from the front 4. Lawson has an extremely slow get off and isn't going to provide what the HC needs. I can see why they'd be look to move in.

Why divert scouting focus to find a replacement for a player we already have. Perhaps he could be replaced with a better player in either FA or different draft pick , one that can actually both rush the passer and stop the run, and the pick we get for him could be used on, say, a RB. It isn’t necessary to use the pick you get for a certain player on his replacement. He could also be included in a package for a player like Alex Smith, depending on what route they go for a vet QB.

Not going to happen. I have a source that tells me our top TWO picks will be spent on the RB position.
DJB Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 I trust this front office to make moves to improve this team. It worked laat year when many of us raised an eyebrow or doubted them and we finally made the playoffs. Ill trust them again this year

Augie Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Shaq tied with Jerry for team leader in sacks. How does THAT happen? 1

Augie Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Just now, joesixpack said: The entire DL was atrocious that’s how. But.....other than that.... Build both lines and work out from there (other than get a QB). The loss of Wood hurts creating one more hole.

HansLanda Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 If you can get a 3rd for Shaq, fine. But he has only been healthy for basically the last 14 months. That, and he has been in two completely different pro schemes. I'd like to see what he can be after another McD camp. You never know. The dude was going to be a first rounder that draft even if the Bills didn't take him...so there are teams that prob like him.
