Competition? We don't even know if Beane is interested in a WR.

The way he keeps a tight lid on things we probably won't know until it just happens, if it does.

we at least know he had a level of interest in OBJ and Hopkins

We're going to have competition for the trade... Is Beane finally ready to make an all-in move? Or do we languish in the 2nd tier of NFL teams for the rest of Allen's career?

 

As another has said, we have to be confirmed to be in it in the first place to have "competition". 

 

I hate to break it to you because I know you despise the guy as a player, but Gabe Davis is not playing at a level that the team is concerned and wants to bring someone in to be put above him. He's performing very well this season.

 

If Jeudy were to come here, bet your bottom dollar that between how Gabe is performing and how McDermott brings along new players, he would have him no higher than 3rd in WR reps. Which is why a move for a star WR is unlikely. Even more so than it was in the Offseason when we didn't do any of the things you were amped about doing.

 

If there were a Jerry Jeudy level Cornerback or Linebacker available, maybe we'd do what it takes to make that move.

That was before the team had a million defensive injuries. Also, the contending team with a real need at WR is the Chiefs, but I would have to think that the Broncos would rather not trade him in the division.

Call Rams about AD. Can't hurt to ask.  You put him next to Ed, re-unite with Von and Floyd.....that's nasty

That DLine is powerful enough to offset the loss of Milano and Tre to a decent extent 

Rams would need to eat $, which they have done before to make deals.

What would it take?   1 & 2...maybe?

Okay? Davis statistically drops the ball at a substantially higher rate and catches a lower percentage of his targets.

 

How many TDs does Davis have compared to Jeudy and did Jeudy ever score 4 TDs in a playoff game?

 

Jeudy has 9 career reg season TDs. Davis has 24.

 

Case closed.

Jeudy has had whatever they had before and the ghost of Russel Wilson throwing him the ball.

Garrett Wilson had a 1100 yard rookie season with Zach Wilson throwing him the ball. Chris Olave had a 1000 yard rookie season with a washed up Andy Dalton throwing him the ball.

 

Jeudy has yet to record a single 1000 yard season. Stop with the excuses. He isn't very good.

I agree another guy people froth at because of draft status but has never actually done anything of note as a player 

[WotAGuy]

Honestly, the Bills’ track record suggests they won’t properly use anyone they pick up at this stage, no matter who they are, except for Josh Norman - out of necessity. 

[starrymessenger]

Jeudy is a nice player but just eye candy. I very much doubt that they are looking to upgrade the wrs. Their resources should probably be better served anyway by investing for a player or two for the D.

What about Jewel on their team? Pretty decent off-ball LB. Wonder if that’s a player that is up for grabs on that team…

 

Talk is they’ll listen to offers on anyone.

[dhgold]

I live in Denver. Jeudy is held in very low regard here. Mark Schlereth, he of the three Super Bowl rings, is a host on Denver sports radio. He's been down on Jeudy for a long time, as have most of his fellow radio hosts (which include former NFL receivers), but he has gone nuclear recently, essentially saying Jeudy is completely worthless and that the Broncos should cut him ASAP.

 

I'm not sure I'd want him on the Bills even if he were a waiver wire pickup.

Yeah if only he had 28 more yards last year, or 144 his rookie season he'd clear the invisible line he apparently needs to cross for you.

If they think he can help and he's a LB - by all means, go for it. Makes a lot more sense than these threads for WR's or Frank Clark.

 

We're good with Pass Catchers right now. Daquan Jones was a big hit, but we still have depth there with Jordan Phillips, Poona Ford, and Tim Settle. 

 

The real issue is with LB where we have a Rookie and two guys who are predominantly MLB's and shouldn't be on the field beneath him. Also CB with Tre out, Dane banged up, and Kaiir Elam underperforming.

yea, I don’t mean to be a downer but I agree that nothing suggests immediate offensive playing time for a mid season addition

Jeudy is not as good as Garrett Wilson or Chris Olave. That was never the argument. He is however better than Gabe Davis, and certainly miles better than the guys we have lower on the depth chart.

 

And you know Davis has never had a 1,000 yard season either, right? In fact Jeudy had 136 yards MORE than Davis last year while playing 213 snaps LESS, without the benefit of an elite QB and an elite WR1 drawing attention away.

 

This isn't even an argument. The only possible reason to push back on trading for Jeudy is his contract and the draft capital we'd have to give up for him. And personally I'm sick of always playing it conservative, always worried about how the move will impact us three years from now while Allen's career slowly slips away.

Have you actually watched Jeudy's play as a Bronco, beyond what might show up in highlight clips?  Having watched all of Davis' NFL career and a lot of Jeudy's, my "eye test" tells me that I'd much rather have Davis on my team than Jeudy. 

 

A lot of Jeudy's yards last year came in game and season garbage time.  Davis is a frustratingly consistent source of drops but he's also made a lot of important catches in his career. FWIW, PFF rates Davis about 5 points better than Jeudy this season.

I don't.  It's not a need. And we HAVE needs.

 

Dorsey needs to start using the guys we have better.  Sherfield, Harty & Kincaid can all play - we need to start spreading the ball around more

 

Exactly, wtf did we draft Kincaid if Allen never throws him the ball. Guy just throws to diggs non stop

He's on pace to do just that this season.

 

His 320 yards through Week 5 place him 21st amongst all WR's in the league. As a #2 WR, he ranks above a third of the league's #1 WR's. His 4 TD's through 5 games ranks him 4th amongst all WR's in the league.

 

They didn't want to supplant him as the #2 WR before the season started. Yes, I know they did due diligence on Hopkins. But there's a reason why they only made a minimum offer, didn't push harder, and weren't phased by him going elsewhere.

 

There's zero chance with how he's produced through 5 games that they're looking to take reps away from him now when they didn't even do it before. They've always maintained last season was a combination of injuries and growing into an increased role. This season, he's playing at a level above anything he's done so far.

 

You might feel "too little, too late". But the kid's cooking this year. It makes zero sense that they didn't pull the plug before but they'll do it now that he's playing his best ball. And I don't see them trading the assets it will take for a guy who'd they view as the 3rd WR.

 

Not to mention doing so would only make sense if they've decided they're moving on from Gabe after this season and I don't think they want to slam the door in his face now and disrupt how he's performing. 

 

There's MUCH bigger issues with this team's roster right now than another WR and Gabe Davis has not only not been a problem through the first 1/3 of the season - he's been a bright spot. Your banging the table to supplant him during the Offseason had *some* merit. Right now, you just look like you have a grudge you won't let go of.
