John from Riverside Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 To me this would all be about what the future plans are for Shady after this year....because while I will continue to root for them I feel like this season is pretty much in the bag
billsfan_34 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) 2 hours ago, no name said: trade your best player? seems like a present bills move. smh I dont think he is our best player anymore. It looks like age is catching up to him and he has lost a step. I will say, its hard to judge him due to our enigmatic offense and the fact run blocking/scheme is brutal. Even if im wrong about hitting the brick wall, we are going no where this season. Let him try for the Lombardi and let us get something that may pay dividends down the road.

CDogg20 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Let me just go and order my Shady jersey then...it will definitely happen then. Love Shady in Buffalo but he’s got 1-2 more good years left and I just don’t see him getting to the big game here in that time. Give him a shot on another team as long as it’s not the Pats* I don’t really see a good fit for him aside from the Eagles or one of the NFC North teams? Would love to see Tarik Cohen in a Bills uni but idk if the Bears would do that trade yet.
buffaloboyinATL Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 IF they are trying to trade him, I am sure they hope he plays on Monday Night so they can showcase him to a National audience. 1

Tre White may be one of the Top 10 best Bills players drafted in our history. I don't think we have ever had a lockdown corner of his abilities outside of the great Butch Byrd, but his talent is being wasted because of the dearth of talent in other places.

I think that Hughes and Shaq could stay if they play well for the rest of the season, and I suppose there's a chance that LorAx will get re-signed for a cheap veteran sum, but I can't see anyone else from that list being back with the team in 2019 I could see GB being interested, as could Seattle, Philadelphia, or Washington. My god, can you imagine if 5 years ago somebody said Shady and AP would be in the same backfield still playing? Terrifying

Jordan Howard would probably be more likely but I can't imagine the Bears seeing McCoy as an upgrade over either of their RBs.
Chicken Boo Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 7 minutes ago, jr1 said: he's under 4 yards per carry this season There's a good reason for that and it's not because Shady isn't capable.
H2o Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Curtis Martin ran for almost 5,000 yards after he turned age 30. There are exceptions to the rule. If a contender needs a RB, say Philly, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a 2nd or a 3rd.

I laughed at this, but it may or may not become true. It's FAR too early for these declarations. He isn't a lockdown corner until he plays at a high level for multiple seasons. 1

Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) If you can get a third or fourth, go for it; Philly's desperate. Our OL can't create a seam, let alone a hole, for McCoy. So why not? Next years OL better be significantly better, but McCoy can lose his game by than, given his age and the hits he's taking this season. Edited October 24, 2018 by Formerly Allan in MD 1
simpleman Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) Exactly why would you trade one of your best players for a mid to late round pick? The odds of drafting a starter are less than 50/50 even in the best possible scenario. And given the historic incompetence of our current front office on evaluating offensive talent, it is downright suicide to have to fill the hole you would create. Historic Success Chart The numbers show us the following outline for finding consistent starters: 1st Round - OL (83%) LB (70%) TE (67%) DB (64%) QB (63%) WR (58%) RB (58%) DL (58%) 2nd Round - OL (70%) LB (55%) TE (50%) WR (49%) DB (46%) QB (27%) DL (26%) RB (25%) 3rd Round - OL (40%) TE (39%) LB (34%) DL (27%) WR (25%) DB (24%) QB (17%) RB (16%) 4th Round - DL (37%) TE (33%) OL (29%) LB (16%) WR(12%) DB (11%) RB (11%) QB (8%) 5th Round - TE (32%) DB (17%) WR (16%) OL (16%) DL (13%) RB (9%) LB (4%) QB (0%) 6th Round - TE (26%) OL (16%) DL (13%) WR (9%) DB (8%) RB (6%) LB (5%) QB (0%) 7th Round - DB (11%) OL (9%) QB (6%) WR (5%) DL (3%) LB (2%) RB (0%) TE (0%) https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2015/2/20/8072877/what-the-statistics-tell-us-about-the-draft-by-round Edited October 24, 2018 by simpleman 3

I agree with you but let me be hopeful here lol Wouldn’t mind see Howard in a Bills uni either. Beane is a witch though so you never know...
PromoTheRobot Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 At this point you're doing Shady a favor.
