I do think there remains talent there with Jeudy and I can understand teams calling. If I was the Green Bay Packers for example I take that risk. As the Bills? Not so much. 

 

Very true.  If WRs are what is killing your offense its a no brainer.  The problem is... Denver's WRs are killing their offense and he is one of them.

Hackett is in so far over his head. He may not last the season. 

 

Allegedly out if he loses this weekend.

Nah. Denver's QB is killing their offense more than anyone else. I totally agree Jeudy has disappointed so far as a pro but the ceiling is still high and I think a team like the Packers or even the Ravens would think it is worth the gamble that you can get his best out of him.

Combination with playcalling- they run the ball too much and not particularly effectively.  Not enough first down passing, not enough play action.  1st down? they're looking to run.  3rd and short? run.  It's so predictable.  Teams load the box and they still run.  

 

As for the WRs - watching like 3 denver games this year I'm not a big fan.  I know Wilson missed a few reads - but on other ones no one is open, then he scrambles, and still no one is open.  Sutton is a good player, but he's basically parker (or Metcalf lite - not as fast or physical) so you're a bit limited in what you can do with him.  Nothing at the TE position.  Jeudy and Hamler are supposed to be fast route running options and i just never see them making plays. 

 

The coordinator/coach doesn't know how to scheme up anything either.  I know Hacketts likely to get fired, hes terrible at gameday management so why even hire a seasoned coordinator - just start fresh.  My guess is Sean Payton, they're going to want someone with HC experience to try and get the team together around Wilson.  And they will pay a lot of money to do so.

And unless Wilson plays better, none of it will matter. There have been guys open. Not every down, but he has failed to see WIDE open receivers multiple times in redzone situations. Yes, the skill positions can play better, yes Hackett sucks (he always did) but the biggest problem in Denver this year has been Russell Wilson.

I honestly think Drew Locke would be better for the Broncos than Wilson.  Wilson is bottom 5 QB right now.

Would bet money in them not trading either. They have new super rich owners and want to win. 
 

that said, I think they should try to move Jeudy before his value gets lower. Not really sure why he hasn’t taken off but a fresh start could be good for him.

If he couldn't flourish in this offence for sure he's a bust. I think there is a good chance he would flourish.

For sure. I believe his best trait at the draft was route running and getting open. To be fair, he has played with a lot of crap at qb too. Can’t believe Wilson is this bad.

It's because no position on the field (other than QB) translates to wins more than a stud WR, and adding another TOP WR to this roster now is perceived as a move that would put us over the top.  Take a great offense and make it literally indefensible.  

 

You know, a last minute, trade deadline kind of move designed to get a championship here and NOW.

 

If we can acquire some backup OL talent, I'm in favor of that too.  If one or 2 of our guys goes down, having better replacements could be the difference between winning the SB and NOT.

 

 

 

 

Beane and McD aren't in it for the short term only. 

 

Even if they were, barring injury (and in case of injury we'll have needs anywhere it happens) a #3 WR is going to get how many more catches than Shakir, Crowder, Kumerow or whoever plays #3 this particular drive? It's not a big differential and the effect it would have would most likely just be taking catches away from Diggs, Knox, and Davis.

 

The FO made it clear from their first press conferences that they want to be competitive every year. Which means they won't be trading away the long-term interests of this team. Which means they might trade for someone, again, most likely OG, I'd guess, but it won't be for someone who requires a ton of draft, cap or human capital to bring in or keep.

If he came to Buffalo his QB would be Josh Allen, the #1 player in the game today at the all important position. Josh Allen brings the best out of everyone. Jeudy would be no different imo. He'd also be entering a WR room with Diggs and Davis, veterans and consummate professionals. Somehow I take that to be a very different place than the Denver WR room. Those guys would also take some of the pressure of immediate high expectations off of him and give him time to adjust. If he pans out he helps take this O to another level and provides insurance against the loss through injury of one of our star wideouts. 
Bills are a strong championship contender and clearly one of the best organizations in the league top to bottom. He could not land in a better place from his perspective.

Hes had issues with drops recently and while a concern I suspect these are concentration lapses that should be correctable. As others have said he was considered to be sure handed coming out. 
He wouldn't come cheap, maybe a 2023 2nd and a mid to late pick in 2024 (assuming Denver is even interested). I don't think Beane would go there even if Jeudy is cap friendly so for sure I don't expect a trade.

Jeudy is trash and I would not even think about trading for him.  If we did - he would become another target for Bills fan to talk sh*t about. Bradley Chubb-- I would take him for a 3rd rd pick

I'd throw a mid-round pick out there for Jeudy. 

 

He's on the 3rd year of his rookie deal and I'm pretty confident in Chad Hall, Stefon Diggs and Josh Allen to bring out the best in him.

What if they take Zach Moss?

Respectfully, that’s an insane opinion 

Have you watched him play?  He runs poor routes and drops passes.  Insane is not understanding he would not add anything to this roster.

The Bills are going to draft at least one WR every year…they are a WR-centric offense and they will always want new blood in the pipeline.  If they trade a second or third for Jeudy, I just consider that their 2023 WR investment in advance.

 

I haven’t followed Jeudy closely as a pro, but I know that (1) he was considered possibly the most talented receiver in the draft when he came out, and (2) he’s played in an absolute garbage offense since day one as a pro.  Based on those two things alone, I’d say he’s worth a serious look from the Bills.  FWW, I’ve never heard anything negative about him as a person; Alabama guys tend to have their s**t together.

I think the Steelers would be dumb to trade Claypool for a 2nd. Who can they get in the 2nd that's as good as him? They need to have guys for baby hands to throw to. Pickens is very very good and Claypool has good size
