BarleyNY Posted March 9 Posted March 9 (edited) 19 minutes ago, Blackbeard said: Fo sho think they could get a first for him tho?? No chance. He will be 30 before the season starts. His cash this season is $10.3M, which is excellent for an above average LT (which he has comfortably been). A big issue would be that he is under contract for only this season so any team trading for him would have to extend him. That’s not going to be cheap. And there’s the question of how he will hold up. His weight issues are well known. To his credit he’s always rounded into shape and played well. But as he plays into his 30s that gets sketchier. Plus if the Bills are looking to trade him, then that’s a red flag to other teams. I’m not sure how telling him to play out his deal would go over though. This is extension time. The Bills legit might have to move him if they can’t come to an agreement on an extension. Edited March 9 by BarleyNY Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Only way this is trade related would be if Beane went to extend him and they aren’t close on the terms If Dawkins/agent wants a top 5 LT type contract extension and Beane offered somewhere say slightly above starting LT avg…… 4 Quote

I think you're referring more to Gen Z's than Millennials. You do realize that there are a lot of Millennials in their early 40's now, right? And a lot more are in their late 30's. Or are you one of those ones where anyone born from 1980 until now is a Millennial? Such a Millennial post. 3 Quote

I was 9 years old in 1995 when the internet came out. The oldest millennials were 14 when the internet came out. We can remember before the internet existed. So, we don't fall in line with the blaming we get with a lot of stuff. The internet came out in 1995? I never even knew it was gay. Good for them. 3 Quote

I'm almost 40 as a Millennial, the oldest Millennials are now 43 years old but they still get blamed for stupid things and have stuff said about them like "it's hard to interpret a Millennials tweets" like we are still 25 years old lol. As Gord would say: "This one thing probably never goes away I think this one thing is always supposed to stay This one thing doesn't have to go away" 1 Quote

Keeping labels straight is burdensome. Truth is, from Boomers to Zoomers and all in-between, we're all drawn like moths to the flame of the Bills. 1 Quote

Steptide Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Cutting/trading him would be absolutely stupid Imo and would really make me question beanes decision making. He's one of the best left tackles in the nfl and a crucial peice to Josh Allen. Why on earth would they get rid of him Quote
Niagara Dude Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Seems more likely an extension, they are not trading their LT unless he going to some team that is giving back a first so they could trade a LT Quote
TBBills Fan Posted March 9 Posted March 9 I'm 45. I guess I'm not gen x anymore. There is some new stupid name I saw on FB not to long ago. Fitting though, people my age never really fit anywhere our entire life, that's why we gave the world grunge and NIN 1 Quote

When something is said or tweeted, it's one thing to imply maybe it means something beyond what it most likely is. But then they leap again to it means a trade is likely or possible based on the unlikely conclusion they've already jumped to. Quote

Or are you one of those ones where anyone born from 1980 until now is a Millennial? Generally speaking, I don't think most people care about the difference between a Millennial, a Gen X, a Gen Z, or anything in between or after. 'Boomer' seems to have become a generic catchall for anyone perceived as older and set in their ways and 'Millennial' seems to have become a generic catchall for anyone perceived to be younger and clueless. As a near 40-year old, you're probably perceived as a Boomer to anyone in their 20s or younger and perceived as a Millennial to anyone in their 60s or older. We've all been lumped into either Boomer or Millennial. 1 1 Quote

I know exactly who Gene Wilder is because again, Millennials are either near 40 or over 40. But you still think they are 25 years old lol As a technical "Millennial" does that make me a "boomer"?

TheBrownBear Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Wait, you're telling me Millennials have pubes now? 1 Quote
Niagara Dude Posted March 9 Posted March 9 I'm ok trading him if we can get a first, even a lower first and continue to get this team younger. Quote
RichRiderBills Posted March 9 Posted March 9 I hope we don't trade Dion. This is from a guy who was very worried about him last year. Quote
