I’m so glad Darby, Ragland, Watkins and Darius pushed their teams to playoff berths. You're just rambling. I definitely think Jordan Matthews, Cedric Thornton, and Humber were the reasons we made the playoffs! 9-7 is what we deserve right? Have a good night. I'll try not to be so bitter! 2 minutes ago, Royale with Cheese said: He’s not a zone corner. Eh, zone corner is easier than being a man corner. but they did a good job replacing him. But it was a great trade on the Eagles end.

Darby is a very solid cb and it was a good draft pick. that said, of all the bad trades they made, this was the one I was fine with. They have clearly shown an ability to scout secondary players (another reason not to overpay Gaines). Also, if they didn't stupidly think Matthews could be a #1 wr, he would have been a solid 2 or 3. No one in the organization thought Matthews was a number #1 receiver. He was basically a fill in receiver.

Sammy trade because look at how explosive our offense was!!! Ragland when your LBs sucks. Funny that those guys ended up starting For playoff teams. Whaley sucked and let's get rid of Allen of his players!!! and Darby really looked terrible that game! Man, Bills fans are so bitter towards ex Bills doing well. Lets take a walk down memory lane! Ragland couldn't get off the THIRD TEAM in preseason. Dareus was a cancer and only started something like 33% of snaps in Jacksonville. Calais Campbell is the force on that line. Decoy Sammy Those teams made the playoffs in spite of those players, not because of them. There is nothing to say that Ragland got the Chiefs to the playoffs, for example. the only one bitter here is you, dude. Edited January 14, 2018 by BillsEnthusiast

He was traded for a 3rd. Beane said he wasn’t a good fit for this defense. Gaines is. Let’s hope that they re-sign Gaines. They should be talking with his agent now.

So dumb. the culture was a crappy AFC and the Bengals. The sad part is our biggest weaknesses were wr and dt where we traded good players. But we're Bills fans so we should just be happy with having a team. Blindly trust the process!!! So if you had your druthers, would you rather still have Dareus and Watkins and not made the playoffs or not have made the playoffs and still have those guys?
Cruiserplayer Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Gaines has outplayed Darby. Sammy has outplayed Matthews. Big stuff has been a wash. We cleared cap space and received a couple of picks. We didn’t hit a home run on these trades, but with the picks and cap space I think we had a single and a couple of doubles.

That was well discussed before he was traded after he has a down second year with the Bills.
Jasovon Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Remind me how many postseasons Darby helped us get to? Trust the damn process. 1

Wayne Arnold Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 12 hours ago, Yeezus said: Man that was a bad trade. This guy is playing lights out this year. Has prob been the Eagles best player tonight. Him and Tre white would have been a top 3 CB pairing in the league. Jordan Matthews appeared pretty useless this year. EJ Gaines is good but is a FA and who wants to pay a player who is going to miss 60% of the season every year. Eh, ya win some, ya lose some.
Mountain Man Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Darby is as about as bad a fit for our D as it's possible to get for a CB, his strength is as a pure man coverage. We play soft zone. As has been said, it's a square peg in a round hole 1
peterpan Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 My good friends brother lives in Buffalo and the brother has friend who is an assistant equipment manager for the bills (yes this is true and yes it's one of those) I heard Darby was a locker room cancer type and traded for that reason. Not buying into the new system, badmouthing the staff, etc. Had nothing to do with how good he was. 1
The Now Moment Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 He's a man corner. We play a zone defense the majority of the time. It's right there...he didn't fit. Square peg, round hole.
