He might not get you there, but you gotta throw down some coin to get the rest of the pieces in place and give him a shot to prove himself. Yes go for it, I'm just saying trading the first is a very risky move. I don't know how many teams are lining up to trade a first for Clowney right now. If it can get done with 2nd and a couple of players that can help them, then yes. If we get him signed long term then I have no problem trading the first.
SCBills Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 People saying this isn’t an “offense” move are wrong. An elite defense, with our elite punt returner factors in for how many yards of starting field position? I dont know about y’all, but I think Allen and the Offense would put up a lot more points starting at the 40, as opposed to the 10. 1

I don't think they will overpay the Texans. I think we have a solid group but I think you have to keep stocking it consistently and it was good not great.
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) I put a 100 on the bills to win the divioson at 10/1 and a 100 to make the playoffs at 3 1/2 to 1. Odds on the same site for the division are now 8/1, so I feel good about that one. I'd be really happy if we went and got Clowney. Edited August 25, 2019 by K-GunJimKelly12
whatdrought Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Our sack leader last year for 7... 4 the year before. Clowney got 10 last year as the second fiddle. im not saying we should go crazy buying him, but it’s hard to argue he’d be a good piece.
dollars 2 donuts Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) I truly hate to say this, but can we prepare for the possibility that he ends up in Miami, and not just that he ends up in Miami but we find out later he had no interest in ever playing for Buffalo. That would be soul crushing when you consider that the bills are miles, miles, miles, miles ahead of the dolphins . Clowney: “ I love what they are building down here in Miami. I couldn’t be happier about the direction.” Edited August 25, 2019 by dollars 2 donuts
LSHMEAB Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Considering this is something I REALLY want to see happen, I'll check back when the thread title includes an edit; traded to Miami or Philadelphia. 1

I mean, we can, but there’s no reason to think he has “no interest” in playing here. He’s not Antonio Brown. The only team he’s reportedly had reservations about is Miami. Also, I’m sure Brian Gaine knows him pretty well. If we’re interested, it’s probably in part due to him. Edited August 25, 2019 by SCBills 1

He also got 10 playing more lb than just d end like he would be here. I think he’d be in the teens if he were just going after the qb

A beer from me HG not because of doing it as you say, but that I agree with you on some peoples feelings around here. i honestly don’t want to overpay for this guy. 1

If we get him signed long term then I have no problem trading the first. Agreed the latter would be the ideal trade and I think that is what they are angling for. And from the reports, it sounds like we have what they are looking for (depth WR, new RB). 7 minutes ago, NoSaint said: I think we have a solid group but I think you have to keep stocking it consistently and it was good not great. For sure, just don't think we are desperate.
