True but I trust Beane more than those morons in Jax.  

 

I do too, but end of the day, no one wanted to pay even a 7th round pick for him and no one claimed him on waivers even with a relatively reasonable contract in terms of his talent.  

 

Again, not saying Beane wont claim him, just saying claiming to trade is a wasteful practice.  Jags tried to give him away and cut him when they couldn't where he then went completely unclaimed.  

 

Interest is very very low on him.  If we sign him, it wont be to try and flip him for a draft pick.  Now on the other hand, if we sign him and he plays great and they want to keep him, they certainly could try and flip Devin or Moss for some draft assets and there would be a lot of interest in those guys.

is he officially going there?  That is literally the place I assumed from the get go he would end up.  Also figured Rams, Texans, and Washington could be options as well.

Tommy's 'magic elixir' should be the proverbial fountain of youth for the Bucs.  Plenty of racehorses boarded in central Florida to provide raw materials.  ?

Arians sounded way into it yesterday. Shady’s time there may be short.

Bucs - Fournette.  Called it.  Not saying would happen, but was a likely chance.  Teams can always find $ of they want to do it.  They have aRB, and a couple of TE’s they can jettison to make up most of it.  Not Gronk, Brate, Howard, but the other two.

They are win now with Brady.  Fournette increas3s those chances.

Bucs make perfect sense as a suitor.

 

Exactly, The Bucs have an offense that needed a big back since their backfield was mediocre to average at best. The Bills didn't have a need with a quality somewhat proven back in Singletary and a somewhat high draft choice for a RB in Moss splitting the load.

Looks like shady is gonna be doing a lot of bench riding again this year


or they just dump him. Shady’s chasing yardage records at this point he’s not gonna want to stick around with Jones and Fournette ahead of him.

I never thought he was a serious option for Buffalo.  The team likes the versatility Singletary and Moss offer as runners.  Fournette, while good, is more one-dimensional.  That means he’d end up 3rd on the depth chart.  For a RB that wouldn’t get many carries, would not contribute on special teams, and would carry a $4M price tag.  PLUS a RB who allegedly had locker room issues in the past, the deal just didn’t make sense for a position not of need.

 

I think if you follow the moves Beane makes, you knew this was a deal that probably wasn’t going to happen.  Just like you know Clowney to Buffalo will never happen this year

No wonder why your screename is “Logic.”  This move couldn’t have been summarized any more concise!

Fournette is meh. 

So is Ronald Jones. Shady has too many miles on him and the writing was on the wall when Andy Reid sat him in the playoffs. Fournette has strength and speed. No allusiveness and he seems to be someone of a blockhead when it comes to protecting the quarterback. Hopefully Ronald Jones can be Miss Brady‘s protector, because that offence of line (sic)is not set up to succeed in that role. Who am I kidding? I hope they all fail.
