We can pay him with skittles I heard on tbd it is legal.

If we could have played players in Skittles we would have never lost Marshawn Lynch 😋

The Bucs have a real shot of winning that division. They're not trading anyone. If the Bengals keep losing, the Bills might be able to get Tee Higgins but that would be a rental as he'll get WR1 money from someone this offseason.

The Bengals would rather, let a franchise player rest and heal and potentially lose a game or two so that key player is healthy for more important games down the stretch, than trade a good player to us even if he was only here for a year.

 

Mike Evans is on the last year of his contract maybe he's looking ahead.

No tin foil hat needed, we basically just signed him... they just need to finish the paperwork

Has he ever played for Carolina??

He's played there at least once every season.

Wait, wait, wait.

 

DK Metcalf's All Time #1 WR is... ANTONIO BROWN?!?!?! Over Moss, Rice, etc...

 

I'd say DK needs to be drug tested, but the NFL doesnt care about those types of drugs anymore (rightfully so).

He's young (25). That means he was 6 when Jerry Rice retired at 42. Just doesn't remember seeing him in most of his prime because he wasn't born yet.

He was on Von Miller's podcast, so he had Bills on his mind.

[DapperCam]

Bucs aren’t going to trade Evans. They are going to win their division.

 

Maybe he will be a Gabe Davis replacement as a FA this summer…

[Allen2Moulds]

First this will never happen, but it is fun to talk about.

 

Evans is well on his way to the hall of Fame, and would be the perfect complement to Diggs. Big body, fast, and catches everything.

 

It is fun to fantasize.

I think Gabe has been better this year, he is becoming a TD machine and generating firm "WR2" production. I wish he would get a little more volume to take some pressure off of Diggs as he has had two games thus far with just 1-2 receptions (the Commanders game and Jets game) I think his worst games should still see him get 3 receptions for 40+ yards and he should be consistently getting 4-5 receptions a game with 60+ yards with a few "monster games" sprinkled in.

 

He currently is on pace for about 935 yards, 12 TDs and 51 receptions. Outside of TDs which he had a respectable 7 of last season, he isn't outpacing last year's numbers dramatically. But what's encouraging is that his catch rate is 66.7% which is about league average but far and above the best of his career (his previous being 56.66%) given that the offense is getting more consistent I suspect Gabe's production will ramp up and he will if healthy likely finish with over 1000 yards, 60-65 receptions and 10 TD's which should get him paid nicely either by the Bills if he wants to stay and take less or by another team.

Man I wish we traded for Evans this offseason. It would have been a SB winning move!

 

Just think, we could have drafted him instead of Sammy Watkins.  

 

Just sayin'. 

 

Then again, we could have drafted Khalil Mack or Aaron Donald instead of Watkins too.

I was so in on Evans over OBJ, Watkins and the other dud.

 

I liked Mack but boy he has been on some ***** teams. Donald would have been nice.

Completely agree.   I never understood Watkins over Evans.

Here comes the 300 page trade for Mike Evans thread.

Don't say it out loud, or it's not going to happen!

[Einstein's Dog]

Unfortunately Tampa's excellent start has taken M Evans out of the in-season trade market.  And like how the odds for DHop took a dive when a trade was not able to be made, the odds to the Bills took a hit with the lack of in-season trade. 

 

But if the market is as bad for M Evans next year as it was for DHop there is a chance.  If M Evans is only a $3-4M excess over G Davis it's possible.

Think of the possibilities.
