McCoy won't want to play for a rebuilding Bills team. He'll be gone after this year at the latest.
But I like the rebuild idea...it's long overdue - Whatnot78
Ok, that's likely
But Williams looks pretty decent
And quality RBs can be found
And if we do trade McCoy...
that's even more ammo we will have to rebuild the RIGHT way
I could see Dareus moves as well |

I'm happy we're tanking
But really irritated we gave away Darby - GERBE!!!75PTS
Can I remind you guys that Darby was benched last year because he was horrible, and they play a lot more zone than man this year...so a man cover CB is less important, and they got a 3rd round pick and starting WR for him.

These trades confirm (for me) that McDermott & Beans thought we were NOT a playoff team this year
And that they need to rebuild this team to get a "winner"
Most importantly, get "their" QB |

I know...I had him, traded him, dropped him...all in the last few years.
But to play devil's advocate, he's had some pretty bad QBs throwing to him - Whatnot78
True but (frank) he dropped so many easy passes when I watched
I would get like 3.5 or 1.5 then a 10 I have a rule when you (frank) me
I'm never drafting you again
Blake Bortles , Allen Robinson made my list |

I like Darby too
These trades weren't about who we gave up though
They were about acquiring more picks as ammo to move up for a QB in next year's draft
Today pretty much proved what we all assumed when we got the extra 1st for trading down in this past draft
McCoy &/or Dareus up next?
Wouldn't surprise me |

I thought I remembered hearing that after this season,
we can trade Dareus & have the Cap hit be much more reasonable
Can anyone confirm this? |

Correction: if both are traded it's only a dead cap hit of $3 million
It is a $4 million dead cap hit if just Dareus is traded |

Watkins could be a beast...
IF he stays healthy
and
IF he has a legit QB throwing him the ball
Randy Moss comparisons are dumb,
but ALL fan bases over exaggerate - jdfitz77
The la fans here are the worst not trying to be a Richard
They only become fans when the team does something
It annoys me to no end

If we can get a 1st round pick ( very late ) from Dallas for McCoy
Do it |

They received 2 guys that will probably start this year as well...I am not so sure they are tanking, just getting guys that fit better, and more picks as well.
Also signed Acquan Boldin as well.
That is not a team that is tanking that signs a 37 year old WR just the other day.

Perfect spot for him imo..
Give him his playoffs and spotlight and we get a first |

He and Boldin must be pissed. I would see if the Dolphins have any interest in Taylor |

I don't think the roster is any worse today than yesterday
and we added a second and a 3rd round pick and saved money on the cap |

So you guys are talking about last year month by month, and the Leafs threads are examining the blunders of the past 87 years.
I don't know which is worse.

You can go back and forth on this with sammy's health history, but there's no doubt the talent level is worse today than it was yesterday |

Can't wait for the Sabres to trade Eichel because he was "part of the previous regime"
Can we just keep talent here? Please? |
