Nothing in this league is a given, you live for the now. Also you have a lot of very good players on affordable contracts. This is the year to worry about Expand To a degree , I’ll concur. The AFC is weak this year and each season is really it’s own thing. Next year’s schedule looks much more difficult, for example. They need to improve their chances for success this season while not mortgaging the future or depleting upcoming drafts too much. It’s a balance, but it can and should be done. If the Bills don’t make a move by the deadline, they’re not being serious about this year’s playoffs or even possibly winning the division.

The Falcons aren't exactly swimming in cap space, though, so why on earth would they go for it? I'm gonna say Pats have to deal with their own cap, and they had to give up a 2nd 'cuz Dimitroff laughed and said "let me put you on hold while I take this call" when they offered less.

CommonCents Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 I’d give a first for Golladay right now. I wish Detroit was selling off pieces. 1

Expand Golladay is one of my favorite non bills players. I mentioned yesterday about bills trades and Atlanta should be selling off some pieces minus Julio and Ridley. I can see buffalo swinging at Vic Beasley as a one year rental maybe hoping to get some pass rush out of him. It would be a cheap get like a 5 or 6 or something really low since Beasley is making a ton this year and is the last year of his deal. If I had my choice I’d get deion Jones but I don’t think he’s available.

Draft picks are overrated anyway, as the Pats have shown year after year after year. Expand Thats true, and it makes sense for them. I would not have wanted to give up one of our seconds though, I dont think he makes enough difference for us and would rather use that pick to move up and get a stud in the draft to go with this young roster. NE is in must win now mode with Brady so old.

Only way you're seeing a trade is if it helps bigtime next year too and were not overpaying. Would be nice to get a guy in here now though and have this season and a full offseason to get acclimated. Seems WR is probably the toughest position to adapt to whether from trade or a draft
Estro Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 I think it's a fairly steep price for a 30 year old WR. I thought he was a guy you could get for maybe a 4th......I'm actually impressed that the Falcons got a 2nd for him.
