HappyDays Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Garcon is the player that interests me the most out of all the names mentioned so far. He fits exactly what we're looking for - a veteran dependable starter who can be had at a reasonable price, and already on contract for next season.

The Bills have the wherewithal to pay more for the players they are interested in. They need to diligently scout the league rosters and come up with some decent targets to pursue. Whaley had his faults but he was good at coming up with mid-tier free agents who proved to be productive. I think OL will be easier to sign in FA than WR.

I'm certainly not against using our draft assets to pick up a receiver but I think a player who has lost much of the speed and quickness he had is not what we need. Although he can catch and is crafty and runs good routes we need receivers who are quicker and who can get open. Garcon can still be productive with a good qb. It wouldn't be very productive with the situation we are in.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 We can argue back and fourth about which of these guys we should trade for. But we can all agree on which they will trade for: nobody

This is an offseason where McBeane have to use their assets to upgrade the offense. Our OL has to be dramatically remade to function at a pro level and give our young qb a chance to succeed. I do believe that both the units on offense can be addressed this offseason with out good cap situation.

I’m pretty sure video games became popular for the majority far before the internet message board did. 1

I fully expect to have a young WR core here next season and a veteran FA, I don't see us blowing a draft pick on a 31 year old WR who Derek Anderson or Nate peterman couldn't even get the ball to because they have noodle arms. Zay Jones, a rookie WR in the 1st or 2nd round and a veteran WR not named Benjamin is my guess.

I know an offseason idea...but that dude is going to be tendered at a first no(RFA)? Love the guy on the field..seems like a chucklehead off so prolly a hard no for McD. I want Bills to sign him and Enunwa(UFA) I would not give the jets a top 10 pick.

If that were the case, the other 31 teams would have made the trades. Which means they are NOT affordable and if they are traded for it will be a desperate team that finally agrees to an inflated price. Other 31 teams don't need receivers. Some do. Some that did already made moves. We are a team that came into the season with the worst WR group in the league. We are a team that has made no moves at the position.
IgotBILLStopay Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 why not trade for Fitz and Desean as a package? - Offer Lawson + 2nd
greeneblitz Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Why the hell would we trade away McCoy but trade for Jackson? Our fans don't think very far ahead.

Dadonkadonk Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Jackson even at his age would be the best WR on the team by far. Under team friendly deal for next year. They could package a bunch of low round picks for him and make a difference this year and next. But I doubt McD thinks Jackson is a process guy.

With gang connections and more recently his car being involved in a hit and run, I seriously doubt he is even a blip on the McD radar.
Your brain broke Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Jackson is on record as saying he wouldn't come here
