ronnieroscoe Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 marv if you are listening--please trade willis a day two pick (and his agent) to Denver for Tatum Bell and the third rounder they got for Ashlie Lelie--then go get Dominic Rhodes or Travis Henry, etc. and resign the A-train. Bell works as real change of pace back (no disrespect to shaud) and locker room becomes much better. Next question.

Bell works as real change of pace back (no disrespect to shaud) and locker room becomes much better. Next question. Not going to happen. For many, many reasons. I'll post one reason but am too disinterested and tired to post more. Other posters can add too it. Reason 1 If the Broncos use that pick on a running back, whoever it is, even if they are the worst rated back coming out -will rush for more than McGahee anyways- (in the Broncos offense) so why do the trade IF YOU ARE THE Broncos?

Reason 2 Willis is worth a second round pick. A third round pick is too high even if you get a player too. Besides I don't think Denver would trade their best RB.

scribo Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I don't think the Broncos would be interested in this trade. But I would not be surprised if Marv does find a way to deal McGahee for something of decent value. That said, I think it is most likely McGahee stays around for the season.
Pete Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 For whatever reason it seems to me that Shanahan does not like Bell at all. He just jerks him around-even though it seems Tatum produces whenever he plays.
ronnieroscoe Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 the point was that shanahan thinks he is a genius and does not like Bell--therefore he would trade for Willis in his contract year acting as if he stole him from old man levy

Bell works as real change of pace back (no disrespect to shaud) and locker room becomes much better. Next question. I'd like to see the Bills consider the Steelers strategy in '05 of using Jerome Bettis as the anchor of their power running game and Willie Parker as the anchor of their speed running game. Willis McGahee is a power running back. He needs a speed guy with Maroney or Parker-like skills. Would Willis buy into it though?

ThreeBillsDrive Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 A power running back can convert a 3rd and 1. An attitude adjustment by Willis and an improved OL could change that.

K-Gun10 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I know Jerome Bettis, and Willis McGahee is no Jerome Bettis. WILLIS IS GOING NOWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!! lets focus on resigning our defensive studs right now
generaLee83 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I don't think the Broncos would be interested in this trade. But I would not be surprised if Marv does find a way to deal McGahee for something of decent value. That said, I think it is most likely McGahee stays around for the season. I think McGahee is here in 07, no doubt about it. He's average at best but that's an entirely different 9000 threads which have already been posted. Marv's strengths thus far seem to be his drafting ability. Getting a 5th round pick for Moulds was a Cardinal sin at the time. (very very luckily paid off with the K. Williams pick though) Picking up Hargrove for a 5th was a bit expensive also, Hargrove was on the outs with his coaches and his release seemed imminent, we just got him 2 weeks before his relase and lost a 5th round pick because of it.
generaLee83 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I know Jerome Bettis, and Willis McGahee is no Jerome Bettis. I second that, Jerome Bettis was capable of converting on 3rd and short and also didn't require 3 consecutive attempts to get in the endzone from the 1/16th yard line either.
BoondckCL Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 WILLIS IS GOING NOWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!! lets focus on resigning our defensive studs right now Was there any implication that i was saying dump him? I didn't think so, that is for another thread. I was just disagreeing with TBD's idea because it is a trend that i have fallen into in the past week or so.
Albany,n.y. Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 WILLIS IS GOING NOWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!! Something I've heard John Murphy say more than a few times. especially on 3rd down.
