dezertbill Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 The Bills are stacked in a few areas. I predict moves similar to the Watkins/Darby trades that we saw a few years back. Here are my out of the box moves: LeSean McCoy to the Cowboys for a Conditional 4th- I predict that Zeke won't be in a Cowboys uniform Week 1, and the Cowboys are in win now mode. McCoy is in the last year of his deal, and even if Zeke returns his situation wouldn't be any worse than what he's facing in Buffalo. The Bills are stacked with Gore, Singletary, Yeldon, and this will help them keep Perry for ST. Cowboys have $23 million in cap space with top 51 players, and this will allow McCoy to face his old team twice a year. The pick turns into a 5th if Shady doesn't hit certain milestones. Zay Jones to the Texans for a 5th round pick- The Bills WR corp is stacked, and I see Jones being the odd man out. There was a post a while back stating Zay Jones won't be on the roster week 1, and after his father's tweet and the competition at the position, that seems more likely than ever. The Texans need WR depth, and even though Zay knows every WR position in Buffalo, he neither possesses the outright speed, shifty route running, or size to grab jump balls that the other receivers offer. What are your predictions? 2

No judgment I would say that the team is stacked with a number of mid level backup 2nd - 3rd tier NFL roster level WR's. Edited August 29, 2019 by Magox 2 1

I think you can make a legitimate argument that we have one borderline 2/3 receiver (Brown); one established #3 (Beasley); one wildcard (Foster); and then a glut of #5 or #6 receivers (McKenzie, Roberts, Zay, Williams, Cam Phillips etc) and some guys who should be working hard on their shelf stacking skills (McCloud, Sills, Bolden Jnr etc) 3

I’m not nearly as sold on the Smoke Brown hype as others are. I see him as a one trick pony. I just don’t buy the camp reports. As far as Beasley, I know listing them as a number is trivial, but I’d think his production and value credits him a #2 role. Did you call him a three because he plays in the slot, and won’t necessarily be in their “base” formation? I can understand that
freddyjj Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Wyatt Teller to HOU for a 5th rd pick next year. Boettger is better player and offers position flexibility. Beane gets back original draft position value. 2 4
Doc Brown Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 I don't expect a trade. If McCoy is traded it's likely during the season. If I had to predict one it would be TJ Yeldon for a 6th from the Texans.
machine gun kelly Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 I don’t see any trades, but I’ve been wrong more than enough times.

Did you call him a three because he plays in the slot, and won’t necessarily be in their “base” formation? I can understand that A little bit the slot thing I supppose, but mainly the fact that in 7 seasons in Dallas he was only in their top 2 for yards twice. He was worse than 3rd three times. Now I know their offense was built a little differently with a TE who was a key passing game target but I am an advocate of the theory that once a guy has ben in the league 5 years you should throw out his best year, throw out his worst year and what you are left with is probably what he is. And when you do that for Cole I think he is a #3. A guy who will catch some balls and move the chains for you on 3rd down but who is not normally the guy defenses are game planning to stop. I think he is a good #3 and a good addition, I am not hating on him or his signing and I hope he gets somewhere close to his career year - 75 for 833 and 5 TDs. I just think when you look properly at his production through 7 years he has produced at the #3 level rather than the #2 level. 2

Hebert19 Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 Funny you started this threat. Was going to start a similar one. My guess is Yeldon to cowboys for a 6th and or Zay to giants for a 4th 1
Rc2catch Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 The Watkins/Darby trades was a strategy move for the following season. Not sure how that relates to this year. Teams are not stupid, there’s about to be 100’s of players cut to shop from. Cowboys aren’t giving up a pick for shady, you know dang well Zeke will be back at some point. If they have to run Alfred Morris and this pollard kid a couple weeks they will. Zeke has no actual leverage on a contract he’s just wasting money and game checks if he sits into the season. And possibly delaying free agency for himself in 2 years if he really wants it to get ugly. Beane isn’t actively shopping for picks this year, maybe a player but we’re not stockpiling draft picks anymore.

I just think when you look properly at his production through 7 years he has produced at the #3 level rather than the #2 level. My only argument would be what do you consider Welker or Edelman? If they are number ones and we make Beasley a focal point where he catches 80 plus balls...then I'd argue that he is a number 1. He left Dallas because he wasn't the first or second option and he felt he could be.
