Move Dawkins to RT, make Ford a swing reserve. Next year, Ford starts at guard. They aren't moving Dawkins to RT. End of story. If they were going to do it, they would have kept Glenn around in 2019 when he was healthy. 2

Dawkins will be the LT for the Bills for long time, I don't think they trade anything to bring in Williams and bump their guy of that spot, it just doesn't seem like something McDermott or Beane would do.
First Round Bust Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) pass...last year of contract...will be age 32 in July and no doubt looking for an extension ...head case her in DC.....likely past his prime...last played Dec 2018...not cut from the cloth coach and GM prefer Edited March 26, 2020 by First Round Bust spelling
Just Joshin' Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Give up a second and pay $20 million per year for an old, maybe injury prone OT? No thanks. 2
GreggTX Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) He's a great player and a HUGE upgrade over any of our offensive linemen. Would he want to sign with us? Also, if they don't want to move Dawkins to RT, move him to G or trade him. We are weak at RG and extremely weak at RT. I also think people make too much of the difference between LT and RT. Dawkins will improve his run blocking. He was a very good run blocker in school and excelled at it on a couple occasions as a rookie. I can't believe some are preferring Glenn to Williams. Glenn isn't any good any more and Williams is still elite. I think his price will come down too. Edited March 26, 2020 by GreggTX
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 They'll get a third or fourth for him, at best. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets cut.

y2zipper Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 The comp pick they get when he walks in Free Agency is a 3rd so the asking price is at least that plus a contract.
hmsmystic Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Awful idea to: Give up any more premium picks Trade for 32 year old player Trade for players who have agents asking publicly for trades Trade for players who are asking for 15-20 million per year

If they want a 3rd...pass. Like others have said, he's 32, hasn't played in 2 years and prob wants 15Mil +... pass. This conversation enlightens me that unless we could find a cheap other OT or another in the draft, Ford is our RT.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I'll say it again in this thread He wants big bucks and a long term deal. so, NO. The Skins want too much in return if they don't cut him. so, NO. How will he pass the physical even if considered? He hasn't played much in the last 2 seasons. so, NO.
BarleyNY Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Not a fit for the Bills but I’m interested in seeing how this plays out. I’m guessing he gets moved for a third or a third and a sixth or something like that. How far he comes off his contract demands is the other thing. He is still of the best LTs in the league and should have a few really good seasons left. I hear that Washington is getting antsy about moving him which means they want it done before the draft. That’s probably smart. Cleveland is landing spot #1 for him and they’ll be taking an OT in round 1 if Williams isn’t already on their roster. I’m sure other suitors are in that boat too. I’m not sure what his final deal looks like or how exaggerated his demands are. I can certainly see his agent floating a high number not only as a negotiation tactic, but also to limit options of trade partners to teams he wants to go to. I think a contract around 3 years, $45M-$48M with a lot of cash up front is where this will land.
