I'd rather they start Dodson and spend money on the offense, particularly a top tier right tackle or guard or wr

I don't get it.  Let Edmunds go, then trade for White, giving up assets and paying him Edmunds money.  Sounds like a losing formula to me.

Bears formula but worse. 

[Perk71]

What did they give up for him? 😜

 

Go Bills!!

Merely entertaining this hypothetical annoys me.

Silly.

 

$11M this year and if it's not one and done then there'd be an awful lot more after that with a new contract.

 

Very good player of course, but we're not in a position to do that with any degree of fiscal care.

Yeah the title needs a question mark......

 

But in another article regarding the Bucs / Bills...  They suggest that a trade for Mike Evans is part of that mix.

 

FOR GABE DAVIS!

Would you trade Gabe Davis (and pick/s) for Mike Evans and Devin White?

 

 

 

Again, silly article.

 

So, Davis' $2.742M for a total of $24M for the two Bucs, with Evans' $13M this year and White's $11M, even assuming we don't renew either guy costing us even more money?

I think White is a good player but not sure he fits the defense. He is a downhill, aggressive, blitzing specialist. Tampa use him on run blitzes and pass rush blitzes a lot. That is his strongest suit. That isn't this defense (I know some fans have played Madden and want us to blitz every play and so would love it). He has struggled in coverage. Unless the Bills are massively re-casting their D he is not the answer.

PFF gave him a 45.5 grade last year and 36.2 in 2021

In contrast, Edmunds had a 79 grade last year and 51 in 2021

 

Always thought he was a very good player too but not according to pff, which you obviously have to take with a grain of salt but still somewhat surprising

I think not !! So Beane should make a trade for this player lose draft capital this year & have him play 1 season for the Bills then he will be looking for the same kind of money & be in the same position he is in this year from losing Edmunds ??

 

Asleep at the wheel sorry but i think not it's kind of like the saying of fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me i'm thinking it's better to get a player with upside out of the draft & have him on a rookie contract for 4 to 5 years rather than 1 & be faced with another player wanting hug money .

 

But that's just me .

[Yawning Frog]

not going to happen.

I don’t know what you charge, but hug money for me is pretty cheap.

I’d give a 4th or 5th round pick for him and sign to long term contract.

[Bangarang]

People wanted Tremaine gone but want to replace him with Devin White? 
 

White is in the last year of his contract so you’d have to pay him. Not to mention you’d hate him for the same reasons you hated Tremaine.

That's Exactly what we need! Perfect for McD's new rabid defense. A 4-3 base that can and will rush a LB from any and every spot at will. That essentially gives us a 5 man line all the time. Elam and White can play man with P&H in the back.

 

EDIT: Not saying that I would trade for and pay him.

I’d sign him to a long term 5 years 5M contract.  Can’t pay him until he shows he can cover

But it’s the first new girl you date after a breakup. You can’t admit you miss your ex, and it’s new & different, but deep down, you know this new one sucks too.

There’s zero chance he would agree to that deal.

Edmunds is a much better player that a bunch of bills fans want to give him credit for.

Yes….that was my point.  

[L Ron Burgundy]

Please!  F yes.   Especially since you  should be able to get him cheap now.  Need to take advantage of these types of situations.

I'm interested in hearing from those advocating about a traditional 0 tech or another 1T how the defense will push the pocket.  Because any decent QB facing zero pressure up the middle will have no fear stepping up and making throws downfield.  

 

I totally agree, I'd rather have an A. Donald than a space eater.  But DTs who can provide consistent pressure seem to be nearly nonexistent these days, and a space eating DT allows a LB to provide a rush, and/or take a blocker away from a DE like Miller and Groot, and/or push the blocker into the pocket.  There are a few "athletic" space eaters that appear to be available later in the draft.
