Free Agency Rumor Thread

On Cooper Kupp, wasn't there a picture of him online with a Bills hat on? Like is he really a Bills fan? Maybe he would want to come help us win a title.

I feel like with the Bosa deal this shipped has sailed. But as a lot of people have mentioned, Bengals likely don't trade with us anyway. 

 

With this being a strong draft class for DL I don't see a trade with the Bengals either. Like you said the Bengals probably wouldn't trade him to the Bills anyway. I do think the Bills will still focus on DL in the draft. Not just for next year but for the long-term future as well.

Latest on Trey Hendrickson

 

Teams are willing to pay Trey Hendrickson the contract that he desires but have found Cincinnati’s current asking price to be “ridiculous,” as one GM told me.

The Bengals can adjust as the offseason progresses, but right now, teams aren’t willing to meet their terms.

“The Bengals are reportedly asking for a first-round pick, plus, extra compensation.”  And, Hendrickson is going to expect in excess of $30M on a multi-year deal.  Meanwhile, read multiple reports that Hendrickson is happy in Cincinnati and wants to stay.  
 

Too bad we were never likely candidates being in the AFC.  Think Hendrickson will be traded and he would have been more impactful than Bosa, Ogunjobi and a top pick (assuming we’d still have had to make another move like Hoecht for depth).

arguably Bosa if healthy could be as impactful.  Hendrickson could be due for a down year. He did have some neck issues...

I agree.  I think Beane took the best shot left after missing out on the big three DEs by taking Bosa, which I like, it’s a nice swing like a lottery ticket that might pay off and easy to move on from.  We’ll wind up with more DL depth which is the next best thing.  
 

Hope we hit with the draft, lots of DL talent to take swings at (and we have lots of picks to move around with).

That's were I am at. Hendrickson is much more likely to play 75% of downs for a complete year but wants to be paid 30+ million per year plus draft capital. If Bosa were to play 75% of the snaps we know he's an All Pro level in my mind a better player. I don't think anyone thinks Bosa will play 75% of snaps but with the Bill's mantra of rotating the d-line if they can get him 60% for 15 games he'll be as impactful as Hendrickson at 1/3rd the cost. Also we can assume that Bosa will get hurt and Hendrickson will be 100% all year, even if that is what their history trend. 

 

In the end the only time it really matters is the playoffs if both Hendrickson and Bosa are healthy Beane won the decision to take Bosa. (and not wait for Hendrickson which may or not even be a realistic possibility as Cinci is very motivated not to send him to Buffalo)

Ok …who do you like?

I like CB Trey Amos out of Ole Miss, who would seem to be an ideal fit for what McDermott looks for in a corner. He may even be there in the 2nd round.

I always thought the Steelers did him dirty. He was the best or their collection of garbage QBs a few years back (Pickett, trubisky, Rudolph), yet ended up as a 3rd stringer.

He could end up being their starter is A-A-Ron doesn't sign there.
