Malazan Posted March 6 Posted March 6 1 minute ago, HomeTeam said: But why would they move on from them? I don't think they will without a very good offer, but they have a lot of dead cap from cutting Russ. They're entering into a rebuild and they may not be there by the time they draft a new QB so getting picks to drafts guys to go with the new QB might be desirable to them. 2 1 Quote
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Just now, HomeTeam said: But why would they move on from them? The answer is obvious: the Russ' contact post cut means they are getting hammered on the cap. Wilson alone will be $35 M this year and $50 M next, simply to not have him on the team anymore. Combined with not having a QB they have a massive millstone around their necks until 2026. A prudent thing to do would be to make cap room and ship off vets with expiring contracts for draft picks. The problem with the Bills moving on it is that these players, while good, aren't a perfect fit for our needs and cap situation. Jeudy, while a great player, is more of the role that the Bills have for Shakir. Sutton has a $12 M base salary for the next two years that the Bills would be on the hook for. 3 2 1 Quote

Im going with nope for $1000.00 Alex. Draft is our best bet 3 1 Quote

I am sure we could make good use of Jerry Jeudy as a starting WR with Josh Allen. If a guy can run fast, run good routes and has solid hands, he can play for us regardless of who else we have. That's like saying we can't have more then one Stefan Diggs. LOL Quote
Success Posted March 6 Posted March 6 I think we get a 1st rounder, and either Boyd or Bourne. And that'd be just fine. I'd rather trade up in the 1st round for a better prospect than trade for one of these guys & their larger contracts. 4 3 Quote
mannc Posted March 6 Posted March 6 I suppose it’s possible we are looking to acquire Denver’s 12th overall pick…that’s a little rich, but could get us one of the Big 3 WRs… 4 Quote

That said, I think it likely that the top three guys are gone by that point (Harrison, Odunze, Nabers). If so, is Thomas worth a pick that high? Brock Bowers certainly is, but I don’t think he will be an option for us. Edited March 6 by NORWOODS FOOT Quote
ddaryl Posted March 6 Posted March 6 the chances of the Bills trading for a WR are slim to none. And Slim just left town Equal chances of the Bills pursuing FA WR's. 1 Quote

Brock Bowers certainly is, but I don’t think he will be an option for us. I agree...looks to me like all of the big three will be gone by then. I had some hope that Odunze would last until then, but I think his combine performance put that to rest. And yes, it seems a little high to pick Thomas Jr, Worthy, or Mitchell. Any such trade would have to be a draft day situation, dependent on who's available. Quote
JohnBonhamRocks Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Rather get a bargain FA WR who can come in and be WR4 and draft (even if a trade up is required) our guy in the first round. My ideal combination right now is Noah Brown with Xavier Worthy. 1 Quote

whorlnut Posted March 6 Posted March 6 It’s an amazing draft for WRs. Just draft one in the first on the cheap and control him for up to 5 years 2 Quote

thenorthremembers Posted March 6 Posted March 6 A Jeudy trade would save them money. That said, do the Bills really want a guy in the last year of his contract when money is a concern to start with? Quote
Mat68 Posted March 6 Posted March 6 I think Buffalo needs cost controlled options at wr. Sutton will be pricey. Juedy imo is over rated. Pick up 2 in draft and the room will be in good shape. 1 Quote
