Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 WR's seem to always get traded on the cheap. I mean Benjamin was a 3rd. I don't hate this strategy for WR's. Low risk high reward moves. Hopefully these 2 trades pay off.

He may never find his game but heck take that away. Any player cost controlled for 2 years with a 5th year option is worth a 7th round pick 2 years away.
hemma Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 A 7th … man they really wanted to turn him loose. Hope he stays healthyish.

What it says to me is he didn’t have a trade market, the Browns were going to cut him, and the WR-needy Bills lobbed a case of beer their way so they didn’t have to compete with another team to sign him on the open market. 2

Let's hope this is a wake up call I see this as a similar situation as Dareus. He went for a 6th, conditional 5th. The Bills just wanted nothing to do with him anymore and it looks like Cleveland the same.
MAJBobby Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 On a Side Note McBeane and Dorsey officially are Officially trade buds Mahommes Trade Tyrod Trade Coleman Trade
3rdnlng Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 It would appear that the Browns have gone all in on the FUBAR method of personnel management. It's the old I'll pay you next Tuesday year time Haley's Comet comes around for a wide receiver today. If I was Beane I'd set up a special hotline between the teams.

Watkins at least produced, this guy hasn't. But if it us a low round pick, the risk is low. I still doubt they cut Zay. But maybe he is also moved for a low round pick. The board was so happy to trade Watkins? Please. A few people were, but most were not. I can dredge up the threads from the archive if you would like. but i don’t really see any relevance between trading SW and what would have been either a gigantic FA contract or nothing in return for a 2nd rd pick ...and trading a 7th in 2020 for a former 1st rounder and cheap player under contract for at least 2 more years other than they play the same position.

aristocrat Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 If the guy can put together a full season he’s paced around 700 yards or so the past couple years. Let’s hope he can.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 I think that the entire point is that you are getting a guy with a lot of talent for basically nothing. Your WR group is very bad. You have no speed. At best, Coleman stays healthy and starts to live up to his potential. At worst he’s a speed guy that you have been desperately missing. There isn’t a Bills fan in the world that shouldn’t be happy with this. Coleman may never be great (or even good) but he is an upgrade with upside. For a 7th round pick in 2020 I don’t know how anyone can not like it... 3

I’d like to see Reilly/DuPree/Phillips get a shot. I went to three practices last week and Foster is the one who stood out to me over all those guys. A media guy tweets something about Foster not holding onto the ball after Bush makes a great play to strip him and suddenly he's having a bad camp. What I don't get is the Reilly love honestly. He was invisible to me those three days. Also don't get Kerley honestly - dude is so tiny can't imagine him surviving in the slot

Worth a 7th to take a shot but no one here should think he's an automatic upgrade given his history.
GunnerBill Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 I confess I only watched the Browns a couple of times last year - the Texans (which he didn't play in) and the Packers. His catch % is a worry having looked it up. Over the two years he has been in the league he hadn't struck me as someone who drops the ball. Someone who runs a limited route tree? Sure. But obviously he has dropped a lot of balls. Still I think this is a good risk v reward move. 1

Based on practice reports that kid will be lucky to make the PS. 1
