machine gun kelly Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 If he only costs a 5th, and is at 4.16 mil. For one year, he would be an asset, and can reassess after the year. We would take a RB probably in the 4th or 5th anyway, so not a great risk. I know his history, but he did have a very productive year in 19, so unlike me normally, I’d consider it if they could come to an agreement with our expectations meaning the process thing. Otherwise, I’m fine rolling the dice on a later round pick maybe Dillon and see what happens.
DJB Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Fournette will move once day 2 is over and a team has missed out on an RB

wppete Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 For a 6th round pick let’s do it. Even if we don’t pick up the 5th year option. We are going all in this year. We can use the 2nd, 3rd and 4th round picks to get a WR, CB and DE.
MarlinTheMagician Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Tre White will be able to tell McDermott and Beane whether he is radioactive in the clubhouse or manageable. If he is manageable, I would go as high as a 4th. He is a really talented and has something to prove. You know in New England they would turn him around and control his "attitude". Maybe he had an attitude problem because Marrone is a turd.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 For a 5th, why not unless management has a problem with his attitude. Hughes might have a concern as well.

JerseyBills Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 i love how the train horn is going off too. Just adds to the chaos. Man that's a tough environment for teams to come into!! I doubt this has any impact on how he feels. If anything it shows him how amazing our fans are , especially compared to that weak a$$ fan base in Jax . I wouldn't mind having him. This staff values a vet back there , I'm sure Yeldon has given some insight on him as well. We can't keep rushing Allen on 3rd/4th & 1 . He'd be a great addition , but will his ego be okay with Motor getting more carries and just a situational back? If he's on board , it's a great addition imo.

Both his rookie and 2nd year the guy didn't even avg 4yds per carry. He's also had injury issues. Top all that off with the fact he has 1 year left on his contract and that makes this deal insanely stupid. Just draft a RB in a very talented group this year. Marshawn Lynch barely averaged 4ypc in Buffalo. Fournette is a beast of a RB that in the right situation can be a 10+ TD RB. He's not going to be a high ypc RB. I really don't care that he has 1 year left, in fact that's a positive. I wouldn't want him if he had 4 years. He won't cost a lot to trade for. I basically want him for 1 year. You can draft a 2nd or 3rd round RB any season. Edited April 20, 2020 by Buffalo_Stampede 1
Nick the Greek Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 I always thought Fournette was a hard runner and good player. I’d love to see him in Buffalo.

That has to mean something to these guys! 1
Johnny Hammersticks Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Honestly, I’d rather take AJ Dillon in the 4th-5th than trade for Fournette. He just rubs me the wrong way. And I like to be rubbed the right way ??♂️ 3

Maybe the Krafty Cheater can give you some suggestions on the rubbing part?

Straight Hucklebuck Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 This is how the Bills get good. Doing the opposite of what they’ve always done, which is let their talent be pilfered by other teams. Take advantage of a dumb team handing away talent for next to nothing. That used to be the Bills. Pat Williams, nah we don’t need him, London Fletcher? He’s too old, Lynch, ehh he’s a problem, Jason Peters, he is lazy. A fourth round pick? It’s a no brainer for Fournette. Johnny White, Xavier Omon, Dwayne Wright - Other famous mid-round Bills picks. 5
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Amusing that Beane himself has been quoted as saying he’s not looking for choirboys, yet poster after poster seems to think we’d never consider signing Fournette because he’s such a problem .... I guess many have their narrative to push, damn the facts full speed ahead
