H2o Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 Good player, but can't see us throwing high draft picks at Seattle and giving him a mega-deal on top of it. It just doesn't seem like the Beane/McDermott way.
formerlyofCtown Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 13 hours ago, Logic said: My question for Bills fans: If the price tag for Frank Clark is the 9th overall pick, do you do the deal? What if the Bills have already signed an OT, C, and WR in free agency? Bear in mind that Frank Clark is only 25, and consider what the Bears paid for Khalil Mack just last season. It's not unreasonable to think that a 1st would be the asking price. So what would be your answer? Personally, I'd have to give it serious consideration. If you take a defensive lineman at 9, which is a very real possibility, you're rolling the dice and HOPING he becomes a good NFL player. With Clark, you already KNOW you're getting very good to elite sack production, and he's still only 25 years old. Id go 9 for Clark and 21. 19 hours ago, whatdrought said: If the Hawks really did want to move him (believing they can't get a deal done) that wouldn't be a horrible trade for them. Probably have to sweeten it with a third next year though. It would cost more than a first to move from 21 to top 10.

It's always a pain in the butt to try and see how player + picks trades really value out. I think they would believe him to be worth 9 overall, so they wouldn't want to give us back their 21. But 9+ 3 or 4 might get back clark and 21
BuffAlone Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I highly doubt Pegs or McBeane would even make a play for a convicted home invasion felon, and a convicted female assaulter. Let alone give up a top ten pick and then some, AND give him big money. This ain't gonna happen. Zero chance
whatdrought Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 My understanding is that Jay is the first to break this and he didn't say anything about signing.. Either Vic got his wires crossed or he's just in a hurry to look like he knows something.. 1
billsfan_34 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I would love this move! This guy is in the prime of his career and can get after it from the edge. Clark Opposite Hughes looks damn nice on paper. Sidenote- someone will have to change their number- im thinkin’ senority would trump. 1

BuffAlone Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 He's a FELON! ANY team that signs him should be worried about him not being available for Mexico City games, or Wembley Stadium games. He can't travel in those countries as of next year. Sorry, but the best ability is availability. If the NFL is looking to expand their brand internationally, as they are, He makes no sense to sign. Unless he gets a pro-rated contract. I mean, a one time woman beater is bad enough. Mistake. Learn. Move on in life. But a home invasion? No way does that say mistake. That happened prior to his assault on a female charge. I'm surprised he was drafted, let alone that high. P.S....I'm no choir boy

If the Bills can do this deal for a swap, I'm all in. The D would go from rock solid to downright imposing with one move.

I'm not sure about his acumen as a talent evaluator but the idea of him having a fondness for a roughneck like Clark is not something that would surprise me. 1

Like "No Fat guys" Greggo relenting to signing Slovenly Sam Adams and having Dick LeBeau run his defense. Or Jauron trying to run a no-huddle offense and signing off on TO in his last gasp. We've seen enough "high ideals" guys in the last 20 years to know how this ends............you gotta' be flexible to survive as a HC in the league. Even Belichick adapts he just has the ability to self-evaluate and make changes without taking L's in the process. 2

They brought in Cognito. and were able to manage him for awhile. before he fell back into his pit of despair. Bills should take a look at him. and do their due diligence on his personal life today. we have to trust FO at some point. I mean Bills still have Shady who has had character concerns.

At this point in their pro sports ownership they do two things........hire/empower and fire.
