So it's a player and a 5th round pick for a late-ish 3rd rounder and will have another 3rd round pick that they have available equating to a 4th after the trade. What's the issue? Not neccearily an issue, but worth noting. 1 Quote

TheFunPolice Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) After reading his bio from the Bills I'm an even bigger fan Benford and Jackson have been doing pretty well and we have our safeties. Douglas will be a nice player for the defense and didn't cost a ton. I'm shocked Elam is still here, so MAYBE he flashes when given a chance (if that ever occurs) and suddenly we have a room full of solid CBs. Edited October 31, 2023 by TheFunPolice 1 Quote
appoo Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 4 minutes ago, The Wiz said: There were two prices in that trade to happen. Bears and the players. Bears wanted a lot and Johnson wanted to get paid with an extension. Bears likely wanted a 1st (considering where the Bills first rounder was going to be), which I think Beane would have been fine paying, but unlikely he was gonna give Jalon Johnson Denzel Ward Money (~20M AAV), for someone who's been mostly good to ok for his first 3 years, and closer to elite for 7-8 games this year 1 Quote
The Wiz Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 1 minute ago, C.Biscuit97 said: Agreed. Dude would have been a monster here though. No question. I'm sure everyone would have liked him over this trade which is why people are being salty but only way it would have worked would be to give him the Watson deal where he makes nothing his 1st year and then 15m next year. Even then, it would have been pretty hard to swallow with Josh, Diggs and Von hitting hard on the cap next year and we need to think about the future. Keeping and having more picks is the right move to try to hit on something to replace Hyde and Poyer as well as others. Quote
Chandler#81 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) This is right out of Beane’s wheel house. Pack just signed him to his 2nd contract, meaning we know the $$ and can plan accordingly Edited October 31, 2023 by Chandler#81 1 1 Quote

He's cheap depth that's worth more than the 6th rounder they'd get for him (he's got 3M & 4M in guarenteed money next two years, respectively, which lowers his trade value some) Quote

My guess is the returns being offered were so low - you might as well hold on to him and hope he's a late bloomer. The CB we just acquired was a 3rd Round Pick who was considered a bust. Floated around the league a bunch. Ended up in Green Bay and then flourished. Sometimes it takes a long time for the light to go on for a player. Look at AJ Epenesa. He was completely written off and over the past year and a half he looks like a different player. If the offers were in the Round 5-7 range, might as well hold on to him. If we gave the guy away and then he develops elsewhere, it would look real foolish. 5 Quote

He’s gotten very little run and is lacking reps. Let’s see what he’s got he’s not co$ting much. I look at him I see potential not sucks. Edited October 31, 2023 by PayDaBill$ 1 Quote
Aussie Joe Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) 13 minutes ago, Art in PNS said: So looking at finishes the Bills #rd will be closer to an Early 4th rounder and the Packers 5th will wind up being closer to a late 4th so to me is a player and swap of positions in the 4th rather than what sounds like a 2 round difference. I think its a good deal as long as he renegotiates 2024 salary . His cap hit is $9m next year … what do you want him to cut his pay down to? I think if the Bills like what they see the rest of this season… then they sign him to an extension and push out his cost… but I still expect him to get the $9m Edited October 31, 2023 by Aussie Joe Quote
Fleezoid Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Sooo, that was our big splash trade deal. Quote
