Sal C who actually works for the team was just on believing the Bills are working on a trade.
Gotta believe after the Trey Lance news they are looking to upgrade backup QB. I wonder if that doesn’t involve someone like Mason Rudolph who is just kinda going through the motions in Pitt. 

Please noooooo Mason Rudolph!!!

I may be alone in this camp but Max Duggan just got waived. He’s a guy I’d pick up for the PS. Kid is all grit like our boy Josh

 

 

I didn't see him in preseason but yeah...........he was a guy who I thought made a lot of sense as a long term backup for Allen.

 

He has the 2 things that all low pedigree young QB's need.........he can run and take a hit like a champ.

If they are it would be kinda hard not to think likely target is either MLB or QB2.

OT depth is needed and we might move a wr, de, or late round pick to make that happen.

Our 3 biggest needs are OT depth, MLB and backup QB in that order.  If Elam drops down to CB4 I can live with that as long as they keep developing his zone mechanics.  No clue who gets traded but I wouldn't lose sleep seeing AJE or Boogie gone.

Rudolph makes a ton of sense. They liked him in 2018, he’s started games in the league is on the bottom of the depth chart in Pittsburgh 

 

Does it make more or less sense than bringing Case Keenum back who already knows the offense?

Agree on the needs. Maybe I’d put MLB as #1 priority and I honestly don’t care enough to trade for a backup QB.  If one gets let go that’s a better fit to backup Josh then fine but no reason to trade for one imo.
 

I’ve actually been impressed with boogie this preseason and I think AJE will ball out in his last year before he gets paid somewhere else.

 

Honestly Kirksey may be the play at MLB and I’m ok with that if we can’t get a guy like Lavonte David in a trade for like a 6th round pick.  OT I could for sure see us trading for because I don’t think anyone believes in Q and even though we all love Van Demark, I don’t think the FO and coaches are comfortable relying on him right away if Dion or Brown goes down early

I thought Boogie looked great in preseason, so I don't want him gone. He seems like he's in much better shape and ready to have a breakout year.

Really hope Beane has a blockbuster trade up his sleeve.

Right. But what if Josh is only hurt for a game or two? Gotta have a guy you can bank on to hold the fort and I don’t think we have that guy at the momemt.

 

And yet, what if a better O line is the reason Josh doesn't miss two games? Chicken or egg, I suppose.

[bills6969]

JT?  Rumor is there is a trade imminent.

[mrags]

If the speculation is that there’s a reasonably sizable trade involving the Bills (not something like a 5th for a backup QB). Then I think it would almost have to involve Elam. There’s likely nobody else on the roster that’s movable for anyone worth a damn. 

[maddenboy]

are we buyers or are we sellers?

 

I mean, we will probably do both.  But which one is big enuf 'news' to get on the radio about.

 

Since its breathlessly reported / rumored, i'd assume its a name we all know.   Not like trading somebody we were gonna cut, or trading for somebody at the bottom of another team's depth chart (with the exception of QB).

 

So its probably Boogie or AJE.  They decided they are keeping one, and the other has value.  Do it before the trade partner has time to be surprised that 'whats available tomorrow (after cuts) in the dumpster is better than he expected.

That could be any day. Because Mike Schoop sucks. Especially when he’s by himself.

I was hoping we’d draft him late.  Love his skill set for a backup.  Grade A kid.  Great

 work ethic.  Mobile.  Sign me up

I think Rudolph is better than Kyle Allen. Not saying much I know, and their career stats are similar. He throws a better deep ball for sure. Grasping for straws here

Can he throw? I don’t care about the other 2 things if he can’t make NFL level throws

Hopefully for RT.

So you put him on the practice squad, and say he still needs more time in his recovery.  

This is the answer I think. I doubt another team scoops him up, so just keep him on practice squad. 
 

It would be a shame to lose a promising OL or WR just because you’d feel bad for cutting him.
