Alpha, I generally love your thoughts and input but I really dislike this one. Barkley is hure risk injury wise and no way I'd pay whatever he costs with our cap situation.

 

We need OL, OL and more OL for Josh.

I’d love that if the right guy is there… I’m doubtful. I think they value CB, OL, even DL before WR unfortunately. 

Possibly.  But they value value too.  Have to keep 17’s shelf stocked.

The #3 target in this offense is Knox. There’s a reason the emergence of Knox caused the regression of Beasley. 1st round pick should be #1 pass rusher, or #2 CB, or #3 interior lineman or #4 homerun threat RB…..in that order. We can find a #3/slot WR on the cheap anywhere, why waste a 1st round pick on one?

Sleeper 1st round pick…….stud do it all LB.

Beasley’s physical skill caused a regression in Beasley.  Don’t be one of these people who think any WR will do.  17 took off when he had real talent around him.  Picking one who can do what others in the WR room don’t do is not a waste; it’s intelligent.

Took 2 pass rushers last year in round 1 and 2  and another in round 2 the year before that.  
 

The Bills apparently like their ILB sorry to tell you.  The IOL and CB available at 25 might not be as good at their position as the two WR’s I mentioned are at theirs, both of whom are TD from anywhere players with polished route running skills.  A RB who is that player might not exist in round 1 this year (hint hint).  I’m all for a CB, DT or OL too.  We’ll see what happens.

Plus Beane already said he expects to have Cole back.  He’s only gone if there is a trade that make sense.  

Expects and will are two different words.  Bease could easily be gone.  Especially if they need money for a different position.

A 1st round WR is a waste if he isn’t a better receiving threat than Knox or Davis. If he’s on par with them then we wasted a 1st round pick on a part time player. Drafting a WR in the 1st round only makes sense if he’s a can’t miss Randy Moss type guy.

If that WR offers a different skill then he could be a better receiving threat for what the Bills need.  The two WR’s I mentioned can score from anywhere with their speed and athleticism.  Gabriel and Knox aren’t those type of players as good as they are downfield.  

 

There’s no such thing as can’t miss so that’s no argument, but the two WR’s I mentioned have a great chance to be impactful.   Have you watched either play??
 

Again, #3 is not a PT player in the Bills offense.

Dude ran up about $100K in protocol fines(that the Bills had to self-report).......had a lousy year with anemic yardage per pass and RAC numbers.......screamed at McDermott on the sideline of the regular season finale.

 

But you think he's only gone if he gets traded?

 

You are on a roll today. :lol:

Poll is close, nearly split right now.  

 

68 against, 62 for in various trade scenarios. 

My friend, I made a thread about this months ago and I got torched for this. Your timing is a bit better than mine, that’s for darn sure. 
 

Anyways, Saquan could have an impact on this team the way Shady did, I feel that strongly about it. Except instead of having Tyrod Taylor at QB we’d have Josh Allen.

 

Saquan would easily be a feature back here and he would actually have lanes to go through because of our passing attack and with Singletary backing him up it could get really really scary for defenses.

 

I think the highest I would go for Saquan is a conditional 3rd that can become a 2nd if certain benchmarks are hit and also if Barkley would sign a long term contract with us.

 

The only reason he failed with the Giants is because their offense was built like it was from the early 1900s and also because Dan Jones sucks. He was fine and showed lots of promise when Eli was QB.

 

Yes please.

Not that again.  There's a monster thread somewhere that debated this for 2 weeks.

I’m NOT giving up picks for a guy that sees the field as often as I do.  If we are going to part ways with somebody they want, make a player for player deal, nothing more.

Dude, teams stacked like 20 million guys in the box against him, yet the NYG still gave the poor dude like 50 carries a game. Poor guy, any RB is going to get killed in that situation.
 

Thank the Lord that Gettleman passed on Josh Allen for Barkley, but with all due respect though, Barkley was a very rare prospect at RB, very well deserving of being a top 10 pick. Barkley could very well have a renaissance period here, but would Daboll give him up? I think not.

If they are smart, they try to get something from him.  I agree, the guy was special, I would love to have him, but the reality of contracts is now a part of it.  You can’t afford to sink 8M in a guy who hasn’t stayed on the field and give up draft picks which = cheap contracts.

all great points. I’d prefer signing mckenzie for around $2.5m per year 3 years and cut Beasley. McKenzie was tragically underutilized by Daboll until late in the season

You make a GOOD point and I can’t say I disagree in any way, he must pass a physical. With that said, I would offer them a 4th, if they want a 1st, I would offer them a conditional 3rd that can become a 2nd so long as he stays healthy for X amount of games. That absolutely would have to be built into the contractual language.

I feel this is the type of gamble that gets people fired if things don't go a certain way. The bills O goes through Allen and the OL and they've shown they can hit perfect games with those two clicking

Are you upset that we sent multiple assets to get Diggs?

Do you understand how football works?! Respectfully,  this is the same as saying lets pay our kick returner QB1 money and wondering why the results arent the same...

The fact is that we need a RB who can make plays when we need him. When teams decide to stop the run, this guy still gets his yards.  Taylor, Henry. No matter what you do, you can not stop them. Merely slow down the pain they bring to a defense.  I thought Moss would make people make business decisions. Well after this year, its the FO, not. the opposing defenders making them.  We don't need the superstar, but we need the dependable "I can pick up those yards at will" guy.

 

Yes, Henry and Taylor are terrific players.  Both have, in fact, had games where they were held in check.

 

I suppose there is a running back somewhere who has succeeded behind an OL that can't block for him, but I'm struggling to think of him right now.

 

The Titans and Colts OLs say "Hi"

 

Having an RB who can make plays when you need them, generally depends upon having an OL who can spring that guy to the 2nd level when you need them to

This literally makes no sense, but thanks for playing…

Barkley feels like more Spiller than McCoy to me. He can manufacture in space but doesn't have the one cut knack that Henry and Taylor do. He'd still be an upgrade. I got murdered for suggesting that Moss wasn't the answer last year. It wouldn't wound my soul if we let him walk.
