I was gonna say much the same about Ertz. Knox has shown me enough at this point that Ertz is no real improvement. Barring injuries I'd stand pat at this point. 

 

Ertz is a downgrade on Knox at this point. Ertz isn't even the best tight end on the Eagles.

I simply do not see anyone who is likely to come in and help us this year that is likely to be available or whose cost will not hinder us in the future. But I am always looking at DBs who fit our mold for our dime package 

 

DB is the only spot IMO. I am still worried about our depth outside. Is there a good corner on a bad team who might be available.... I struggle to think of one off the top of my head.

2020 3rd round pick Cam Dantzler seems to have fallen back on the Vikings depth chart. Long CB who’s about 6’2 and was good coming out of Mississippi state

This defense is an elite pass rusher away from being incredible.

 

I think Zimmer easily fills in Oliver's shoes.  

 

I think Boogie and Rosseau are good young ends.  

 

AJ is a young talent but I'm willing to give that up at a deep position to separate us even more with an elite end like Jones.

Have you forgotten about something called the salary cap?

Vernon Butler and Horrible Harry are the only players I’d think Beane would trade now 

Both UFA’s next year, both extremely unlikely to return.

but is a high-risk tackler in run support and needs to do a better job of wrapping and finishing. That isn't a good thing in a heavy zone scheme

I haven't.  Does it go well with peanut butter?

I wouldn't trade a bag of mouldy tomatoes for Ertz at this point. We have our #1 Tight End. Your #2 tight end when you are only carrying two better be able to block. Ertz is an awful blocker.

But he has unparalleled name recognition.  Beane should float an offer of all TBD-TSW members wanting Ertz to Philly in return for Utz.

Come to Buffalo to be the best version of yourself. Pretty sure Levi Wallace had tackling issues coming out but he’s played pretty well.

Yea I didn't like Cam as a scheme fit coming out. Haven't changed my mind.

I wonder if McBean has gotten any calls about Mitch? Russell Wilson and Daniel Jones both went down this weekend, on top of the already depleted qb situation across the league. 

It would have to be a pretty high draft pick IMO.  Mitch has looked pretty good in Dabolls’ O.

I agree with this, but wouldn’t a rental player like Joe Haden put the Bills over the top? Not saying that it would happen, but I’ll never underestimate Brandon Beane.

The Steelers just lost Smith-Schuster, they might be in the market for a wr. Maybe Beasley for Haden?

[appoo]

At least the rise of Dawson Knox means we can ignore Zack Ertz.

 

if the Bills make a move I’d be curious about an upgrade to CB2 and Feliciano. 
 

Feliciano is probably in his last year here
 

 

[FieldGeneral]

We aren't in desperate need for any position. Do not trade away one of our strengths. The only way would be an over the top offer.

Only if you mix them at the right percentage.

A truckload of Utz hot chips. Damn those are good.

Regarding Feliciano, I'm not so sure...he has a dead cap hit of $1.5, and given his full salary is $5.25 and has been a starter for going on three years now, I think the Bills see his value as depth at the very least for another year. His last year dead cap is $750k and that make sense after a couple of their young guys get some maturity and development, but I can't see them simply cutting him IMO, given what he brings to the Offensive Line.

[aristocrat]

Rb might be the only spot I’d look at. Devin is nice but lays that ball down too much. 

[ndirish1978]

How does anyone come in at this stage and help the team this year? No training camp, no knowledge of the playbook. I don't get mid-season trades unless you're picking up a young player for the future.

[Logic]

The Bills have not made any roster changes this season, to the best of my knowledge.

No swapping practice squad players in and out, no calling up players one week and demoting them the next....nothing.

 

This tells me they are quite happy with their roster.

Given that they are number 1 in scoring defense, number 1 in scoring offense, number 1 in takeaways, and number 1 in point differential....I don't see any reason why they should change a single thing.

I'd only trade a DE for a good CB.  Obada's been inactive every game and could be put into active duty.

I sworeeee i read or saw a video on Cover 1, that obada played last week, cause I remember being surprised.

Can anyone verify?
