Bill from NYC Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 with Roscoe Parrish getting close to returning should the Bills try to trade Josh Reed? 473145[/snapback] This was a good idea for an interesting thread. I say that IF they can sign him long term (he is a ufa after this season), how about a 2nd and a 3rd to Seattle for Steve Hutchinson? Hey, a fan can dream, no?
1959BillsFan Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Frankly, who would WE trade??? Other than 2006 draft picks. I guess Josh Reed or Sam Aiken, but both those guys are in their contract year right now. They become UFA at the end of the season. Yea, we can use some interior o-linemen, Villarriel is hurt A LOT and Fat Bennie can't pass block, or run block for that matter. Next year, Preston will be taking Teague's place. Mike Williams may be trade bait if he can at least play in a game, but what teams would want to pay his salary??? I don't see tons of change with him or Jerman in there. I'm not sold on Williams as a long term anything. Frankly, his legs can't hold up all his weight especially at either tackle position. He has had leg injuries his entire career. McNally wanted him at guard, and with his weight, that is about the only place he could play, inside. I think Gandy is hurt too. Elbow injury??? We could use a DT too, by the looks of things. I like Tim Anderson, but he hasn't gotten much actual game time. Edwards is in his contract year right now and he hasn't shown any consistancy. It's also looking like we could use a pass catching TE. Does anyone know when the 3 rd rounder from Miami, Everrett is supposed to be healthy???? For that matter, does anyone know when Euhus will be ready???? Both these guys seem to be injury prone. Crowell is doing pretty darned good considering he is replacing Teko Spikes who isn't easily replaced.
In space no one can hear Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Lots of needs, little trade bait! 473203[/snapback] Agreed!! And this is supposed to be the deepest team we have had under Donahoe!! Oh well...maybe in the next five years of Donahoe's reign of terror we will have a deeper roster!! (and possibly a visit to the playoffs) Yeah...I know... even mentioning making the playoffs is asking too much.

Injury-riddled Donahoe's a terrible GM. Any quality GM would have built a team that has three-deep starter quality at every position. The Balls shouldn't be suffering from these injuries. And don't give me crap excuses using "facts" like the existence of a limited 53-man roster, a salary cap, and limited pool of top-caliber talent due to 31 other teams competing for players. Donahoe clearly sucks. Let the trolling begin. I'm ready to be entertained during this upcoming boring afternoon at work.
Alaska Darin Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 with Roscoe Parrish getting close to returning should the Bills try to trade Josh Reed? 473145[/snapback] Who would give up anything for a player in his out year who has had confidence problems?

Hey, a fan can dream, no? 473147[/snapback] No team in the NFL is going to trade away a bonifide starter on the OL regardless of the contract status.
Mark VI Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Teague,Bannon and Jermain to the Jags for DT Marcus Stroud.
udonkey Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 It would be ridiculous to trade Reed considering he has been one of our most productive WRs this season (JPs favorite WR?)
e-dog Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I think we all know that there will be no trades. Zero. Zip. Nadda. Same oh same oh.
Blue Chipper Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 has a team ever traded their entire offensive line? If not we should try to be the 1st to do it.
e-dog Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 And who is the team that will want to trade for them ?
Blue Chipper Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 And who is the team that will want to trade for them ? 473382[/snapback] good point.
Campy Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I think we all know that there will be no trades. Zero. Zip. Nadda. 473318[/snapback] I'd say that's more a function of free agency than a lack of initiative at OBD. Unlike hockey, I can only remember a couple of trades league-wide at or near the deadline in recent years.

UteBills Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 If this thread had been going last week I would have said JP...I was so freakin ticked at how he was playing...Now that I have had time to cool off I can see the light a little bit better... thanks for letting me ramble.
RuntheDamnBall Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Why should the Bills trade for anybody when they can find the star of the future at their own Combine?
Campy Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Why should the Bills trade for anybody when they can find the star of the future at their own Combine? 473405[/snapback] That looks cool. I wish I was about 15 pounds and 15 years lighter, I'd go for it. Maybe we need to get a Waller in there and follow his progress.
jdubs Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 whatever happened to that suppossed winborn trade?
