Is Ertz worth a flight to Chicago? I’m not even sure I’d mail a welcome fruit basket.

Sure, why not. It is like a 90 minute flight from Buffalo to Chicago. Maybe Ertz is on the fence and needs a quick sit down. Maybe he wants to see the facilities, and it is Covid/recruiting, so they send out the private jet.

 

I don't know, but it feels like if you own a private jet, a 90 minute flight isn't an "is it worth it" moment. It is literally why you own the plane, so you have that thought much less than the average person. I know that does make WAAAAAAAY more sense than grabbing Mack randomly.

Just got confirmation from the flight attendant ..... Pegula’s meeting with Refrigerator Perry ... to coach the Sabres

How much dead cap hits Chicago to trade Mack? They just converted more salary to signing bonus for cap relief. Doesn’t this make him basically untradeable cap wise?

Well we did just try and go after Watt. It would make sense they would be interested in a hybrid like Mack.

Actually possibly/probably. His wife plays pro soccer for the MLS team there. I know everybody is getting rock hard over Mack, but this is actually a good catch and feels like it is most likely at the moment.

At the very least, it sounds like she’s been scrimmaging around the Chicago, with her MLS season kicking off on 4/9....

He was offered to Seahawks so apparently not.

Dude, everybody is interested in a player like Mack. Everybody. Literally every team in the league has some interest in acquiring him. 

 

Don't get me wrong. I would be thrilled to have him here. I just don't think that is why they are there. It is far more likely that the Bills are in town to see the tight end they have been rumored to be the favorites in a trade for. 

Not the All-Pro stud, who just restructured his contract, and has about zero rumors (other than for Russ) linked to being traded. He already saved Chicago $20M this year. I know we all want him. But the odds of this are terrible. Especially when you consider that Ertz' wife lives in Chicago most of the year and there has been HUGE speculation of that move for the last few days. 

But sure, it is Mack....

Pegulas trading the Sabres for Mack? We'd probably have to throw in a couple draft picks but I'd be down for that.

Nah Chitown already has their own train wreck of a hockey team right now......

It’s a low possibility but I’m a dreamer and that is what I want. Flying and trading for Ertz doesn’t exactly inspire excitement. But Mack or Fuller would, which would kind of tie into the whole Cynthia thing.
