EmotionallyUnstable Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Wtf what? Cap dump for a mid round replacement at safety. Ehh. Need more but it’s a piece. Good luck, Rick! Quote
Gunsgoodtime Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Going to be a lot if stuff we don't want to see this year. Beane really has us backed in a corner no matter how you want to paint the cap picture 2 1 2 2 Quote
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Yeah, must mean Morse is extended. Not a bad move picking up a 5th and cap space. 4 Quote

Green Lightning Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Stuck with Morse now. He can't move a DT an inch and his head is a concussion waiting to happen. Crap. 1 1 3 1 2 Quote

BuffaloBillyG Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Should be an early 5th. Not a bad return. Clears some cap. 1 Quote
Brandon Posted March 5 Posted March 5 3 minutes ago, uticaclub said: He's worth more than a 5th Maybe he's worth more than that to the Bills, but in terms of trade value, I think a high 5th is as good as you could ever expect for a reserve veteran OL with a somewhat pricey contract. 1 Quote
Big Blitz Posted March 5 Posted March 5 Picks to move up into the 3rd round or higher. We aren’t making 11 picks. 6 1 Quote

BillsFanForever19 Posted March 5 Posted March 5 (edited) Whoa! Cap space and a Draft Pick! Niiiiicccceeeee. Chicago only has one pick in Round 5 - 143, Pick 9 in the Round. A valuable one at 14 pts. on the Draft Trade Chart, compared to the two others we have that are worth 10 pts. https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp Edited March 5 by BillsFanForever19 1 1 Quote

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 5 Posted March 5 2 minutes ago, Process said: Bates was nice depth but that's actually a great move to free up cap and get an early 5th round pick in return. Thats the biggest issue when you play cap games, which the Bills will be doing. Depth gets thinner. Bills were extremely lucky health wise on the OL last year. It won’t happen again. 3 1 Quote
