blacklabel Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 I think they might be buyers instead of sellers (aside from KB). I really don't see any reason to move Shady. Still the best player they have and is a good safety net for Allen when he needs to check down. A lot of people on here have lamented the fact that the organization has failed Allen by not surrounding him with enough talent yet those same people will be the first to say, "Trade Shady!" Kinda counter-intuitive, right? 3
gobills1212 Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Lol!!! I might have a free million dollars to give away!! Stay tuned.... 1

Kinda counter-intuitive, right? Exactly, dont get rid of the guy who has been Allens biggest supporter. But... If it somehow turns out like Faulk leaving Manning and we end up with an Edgerin James out of the deal you won’t hear me complaining. 2
nucci Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 I'm guessing teams are asking about Benjamin and definitely McCoy

If it somehow turns out like Faulk leaving Manning and we end up with an Edgerin James out of the deal you won’t hear me complaining. I hear what you're saying, but as far as I can tell, this next draft isn't loaded with RBs like the last few drafts have been. It's not exactly loaded with top-notch receivers either. It would figure, the year the Bills need to add offensive playmakers, it's kind of a down year in the draft. It's a ridiculously good year if you're in need of DL, but they seem to be pretty well set there. However, if they somehow ended up with a chance to take a guy like Ed Oliver, do it up. That's reflective of what they did in Carolina, too. I think it was the 2016 draft, they took Vernon Butler, a d-tackle when they already had Lotulelei, Kawann Short, Mario Addison, etc. Their DL was already one of the stronger units on the roster. But sometimes teams will add to a position group that's already pretty strong. Falcons did that this year, drafted Calvin Ridley while having Julio Jones, Mohammed Sanu and Taylor Gabriel. Should be a super interesting off-season. 10 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: What do we have left to sell and why? Reports say that a 200 lb. stash of Skittles was recently found on the OBD property.

Kinda counter-intuitive, right? Spot on. If allen was sitting this year or not going to play when hes healthy, id be all for it. Hesitant now because it will be even harder for him without shady and or kb. I would like to think this is what they think as well. If the offer is right though, would be tough to turn it down. Harder decision than outsiders might think

Word has it they plan to sell these... individually. I haven’t been in touch with CFB this year as I have in years past so i’ll take your word for it. I have watched a little of Oliver and Bosa (when healthy) and if you have a shot at those guys then by all means fire away.

HappyDays Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 This seems like a small time reporter fishing and hoping they get lucky so they can claim they have an inside source. 1

So the theory is that teams will be trading away solid players will multi-year favorable contracts who aren't physically at the end of their football life away at the deadline instead of rental players for a playoff push? 1

Misterbluesky Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Josh Reed from CH 4 said three teams have interest in Shady but Beane's price tag is too high.
