Will be interesting to see what the market is for him, I would imagine it’s stronger than the Henry trade market.  
 

UPDATE:   Ekeler now granted permission by Chargers to seek trade

Not sure how to value him on a contract.. Just my opinion of course but he’s not a good running back. 
He’s a check down machine but there’s been plenty of guys who just catch check downs all day. When the chargers need a yard they pull him out for Sony Michel or Spiller or another back.

Sounds exactly like what the Bills need! Check it down. Move the chains. Matriculate the ball down the field boys!

That was Hines best quality in Indy and why I thought they brought him here.

I’m aware of a stat page. They don’t always tell the whole story. His value in that offense is much more than another.

Maybe. But, I imagine about 15 teams would be thrilled to have him.  I can see New England being a good spot for him

I’m sure there’s interest. He’s not a bad player. Just not sure how he’d translate to other offenses and his contract value if they don’t use him that way. And Herbert should probably be worried, cause Ekeler and allen are his two safety nets and when they’re not playing he don’t look so great

I was actually thinking the same for the Giants. When your quarterback doesn’t have a cannon of an arm, having a check down option is a huge asset.

I suggest CNC machinist.  They always seem to be looking for them at manufacturers and job shops.  Electricians are always in demand, too! 😁

This is one I think we REALLY need to be in on. I'm trying to think of the compensation that would make me say "no" and I cant put a value on it. 

 

27 yrs old

really only starter lvl snaps for 3.5 years so shouldnt be "leg dead"

would add a receiver for us ~127 tgts last year (instantly #2 rec here in terms of volume)

really friggin good player

 

I'd be willing to part with Gabe, our 1st (I know, I know), and even cook **edit - some combo of this, not all 3 together**
