Bills asking for a 2nd and a third for Shady.  Steelers asking for a 1st for Bell.  Curious who caves in to make the deal.  Can the Eagles even afford Bell?

A 2nd and a 3rd? I’ll eat my shirt if we get that. 

 

A 3rd is most likely. 

 

Also. I feel bad for Shady. “We’re going to move you for a bit, win a quick Super Bowl, then bring you back when we’re sub .500 the next year. BUT, you’ll sneak your way into a playoff game in Buffalo.  Cool?”

And it probably hurts even more because of the fact that they tried to trade for McCoy last year but opted to acquire Ajayi instead when they heard our asking price

Josina Anderson was just on ESPN saying that from what she's hearing, it sounds like the Eagles plan to get past their Thursday night game this week and then they'll turn their attention to pursuing McCoy.

The trade could come down to how philly's rbs perform Thursday and if the bills win Sunday.

 

If philly's rbs play poorly they will be more willing to pay the price asked. However the price may go up or down based on the bills outcome

 Round How acquired 
 1 Eagles' own pick 
 2 Eagles' own pick 
 2 Acquired from Ravens during 2018 NFL Draft 
 3 Eagles' own pick
 4 Eagles' own pick 
 5 (projected) Compensatory pick 
 5 Eagles' own pick 
 6 Eagles' own pick 
 6 (projected) Compensatory pick 
6 (projected) Compensatory pick 
 7 Either the Eagles' own pick, or the pick acquired from Broncos for Allen Barbre, depending on which one they traded during the 2018 NFL Draft (for Mailata), which has yet to be determined.
 7 (projected) Compensatory pick 

 

What I'm asking for if I'm the Bills (and I'm asking for more than what I think I'll get because you always anchor high in negotiations):

 

Bills get:  The better 2nd round pick  and the better 6th round pick

Eagles get:  Bills 3rd round pick

 

What I'd settle for: Bills get Eagles worse 2nd rounder and the Eagles get the Bills 3rd round pick.

Why are you settling for so little?  The Bills are in a position of strength and the Eagles of need.  The Eagles have also shown they are willing to pay to keep their team whole.

 

I would trade Shady for a second and another pick.  I would not make the swap of picks you have proposed - too little value.

Beane and McDermott might also want to see how Ivory does with 12+ carries too. See if he can have another strong game.

I think Ivory can handle 12 + carries, he used to do it often earlier in his career. 

 

The more I think about it the more I think shady gets traded. I could see shady traded then beane trades for another rb.

I'm actually wondering why/who leaks this. My theory: Eagles leaked this so McCoy knows they're trying to bring him back and he puts pressure on the Bills to make the deal. For all we know he's already expressed his discontent with the limited usage and McDermott has just downplayed it. I think McCoy likes it here and is working well with Allen, but chance to return home with a playoff run would still win out.

 

Prediction is Bills make the trade for a 3rd and 6th, bring back Gillislee.

My points exactly.

I think it is a pipe dream that the Bills would get a 2nd round pick.  A 3rd is more likely, but I'm guessing it will fetch a 4th only given his age

You said it as perfect as can be said

You guys and your love of draft picks! A  mere 3rd round for a superstar like Shady to go to a team in NOW desperation mode would such a bad trade! Get way more or keep the man! 

 

And the other players in that locker room would be quite dejected. It'd be the management saying "season's over, all for next year" but keep pushing through pain and injuries... Maybe the GM is tempted but I'm not sure the coaches are
