SCBills Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Yea, we’d probably have to throw in picks to outbid Miami, given they have a franchise Tackle they somehow don’t want to keep. That said, I just can’t wrap my head around it. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a team in tank mode make a blockbuster trade like this.

They are one of two teams mentioned and Clowney rumored to not want to go to Miami. He controls the situation, remember, because he can’t be traded until he signs his franchise tender. wait, not wanting to go to Miami. I read a story last year that nobody wanted to come here!?!? wonder what we are trading. Likely a RB and draft pick.

What would the Bills trade? Houston is reportedly looking for a starting Olineman or WR. We aren't exactly great in those departments either.
Orlando Buffalo Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 I was looking at spotrac for his "probable" contract and it is 100 million for 6 years. I want no part of that for him. 1

As a UM fan, I prefer not to watch it. In terms of his NFL career, he's shaken off early injuries and improved each and every year. His sack numbers have risen to around 9 even though he's not always tasked with rushing the passer in that scheme. He has SIXTY FOUR TFL's. The guy is legit. Clowney is big time legit. His play cannot always be measured in numbers. He generates a lot of pressure, he is all over the run game, and in constant pursuit. Plug him in to this defense and now we are getting somewhere!

I still think they are dumb for trading Tunsil but whatever, I won’t complain if they trade either of those guys. I think the problem is that Clowney reportedly does not want to go there. Could have to do with the coach, the ownership, the lack of a qb, who knows.
GG Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Doesn't make sense that they need a WR when they can't keep the QB upright. 1
Big Blitz Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 7 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: Alshon Jeffrey for Clowney would also make a TON of sense. This is also far more likely.
skibum Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Clowney is a great player, but do the Bills really need to give up a bunch of assets for one guy, to improve a Defense that’s already very solid? I know they need better depth at LB, but this seems a bit luxurious if you’re trying to build a complete team. 1
LSHMEAB Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Meh. The worst thing an organization can do is acquire elite talent because you have to pay them and they MIGHT not live up to the contract. Do I have that right? 1 2

SCBills Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) This defense would have zero weaknesses if we got Clowney. We’d be talking dominance. Hughes - Star - Oliver - Clowney Milano - Edmunds - Lorax White - Johnson - Wallace Hyde - Poyer Solid depth at every level behind those guys Edited August 25, 2019 by SCBills 4 1

formerlyofCtown Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Yeldon and a 2nd for him or Shady and a 2nd for him and a 4th.
