BenchBledsoe Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hypothetically, if you were the Bills GM, what moves would you try to pull off? I'd look strongly at this: Trade: Trent Edwards, Marshawn Lynch and a 2nd round pick (try a 3rd at first and see) for Jay Cutler and Tony Scheffler (I'd also try to throw in Chris Kelsay, which I'm pretty sure would NOT sweeten the deal, but sour it, unless he agreed to a different contract with Denver) Waive Kelsay if Denver won't take him Draft at # 11: Chris "Beanie" Wells, Ohio St. RB Our skill position players of what looks like a high octane offense: QB-Jay Cutler RB-Chris "Beanie" Wells WR-Terrell Owens WR-Lee Evans TE-Tony Scheffler To me, Lynch is a good, but not difference making RB. Wells could be the next Adrian Peterson. He is bigger and faster than Lynch, and isn't the off-field headache. And obviously, Cutler and Sheffler would be considered big upgrades. In this scenario, we wouldn't have a #1 or #2, so we'd need to sign players like Kendall Simmons and Cato June. Kelsay would have to be cut because I'm certain Cutler would require a massive new deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenchBledsoe Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Simple answer. NO! What don't you like? The Edwards for Cutler exchange, the Lynch for Wells exchange, the Scheffler addition, or giving up the 2nd or maybe 3rd round pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvermike Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Think of it this way - how much better do you think Wells is that Marshawn? Because we're giving up a chance to address a major need by burning off that first round pick. As the trade is set up, I think I"d be happier sticking with Marshawn and giving the Broncos the first, but really, either way I think we're overpaying. I'd give up Edwards and a second round pick for Cutler, I think. My munch with Schieffler is that he'll eventually be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though i personally would not want to give up the truck i could see why the organization might so I would definately make the deal but if i had to throw in a pick which i dont think i should it would be a 5th rounder or later because its lynch for cutler and trent for scheffler i would definatley use the first on beanie but hes not the truck that lycnh is but is a better hole runner.
