Sam Bradford is a good QB, problem is he has weaker knees than Derrick Rose. Bills should still take a chance though.

[GD]

The defence was fine without Kiko last year, and it's his second major knee surgery already. With that being said, he was a stud, and he was on a rookie contract, whereas LeSean is older (26) and is also a RB who has a 7M cap hit over the next three years.

 

If the Bills can get Iupati and more help on the OL, the defence should be just as good as last year (plus Rex) and then I guess this improves the run game. I still am holding out for Bradford, or maybe Matt Moore or Jake Locker. I dunno. Bills need a QB. Ugh.

 

It's his second major knee surgery? Ok, that makes me like this a lot more.

 

Iupati needs to be our primary target at this point. Yeah, his pass blocking, but Iupati + McCoy would be fantastic. And as maligned as he is, what would Cutler's contract be if he was dealt? His stats were pretty in line with years past.

Isn't his contract ridiculous?

[Zaun of the Dead]

I think he is actually a free agent after next season

I would take Cutler. This team with Cutler and Iupati makes the playoffs.

Absolutely. Cordy's already a fantastic pass blocker so we've got an LT for Cutler, and Incognito isn't a bad pass blocker by any stretch at LG. We just need to fix up the right side, and an upgrade at C wouldn't hurt. Iupati at RG and a draft pick at RT could be a solid o-line.

 

I know a lot of Bills fans who don't want Cutler but when your options are Derrick Rose and Mark Sanchez, beggars can't be choosers.

Eric Wood is fine at centre.

Eric Wood is fine at centre.

 

He's ok. Centre isn't exactly the most important position to be fantastic at, so yeah, just wouldn't hurt if the opportunity arose.

Casssel sucks, no idea why teams keep buying into the thought that there's something there. He's had 2 good seasons in 10 years, and one of those was likely mostly due to the system.

Because their other QB is EJ Manuel

Bills going nowhere..

[GD]

We won a decent amount of games with KYLE ORTON. Cutler would have been better, but Cassel is just fine.

Orton just had a Jay Cutler type season.

Orton just had a Jay Cutler type season.

 

And Cutler might just have had a better season if he was allowed to, say, audible at the line or something.

Audibling won't make him better than what he's shown for the last 8 years. Anyways, I doubt Cutler gets traded.

Man it must suck to be a Bills fan.

Yeah having one of the best defenses in the league, Sammy Watkins, and now LeSean McCoy is really awful right about now.

[canadiansportsjunkie]

I like what the Bills have done so far but Falcons are my #1 team.

 

Marshall to the Jets yikes there goes his value

Doesn't mean s*** unless you have a competent QB. Cassel is not this.

[GD]

Suh to the Dolphins. wao

Paying a RB an egregious amount of $ is not something to be excited about. Being a Vikings fan, I know this.

[canadiansportsjunkie]

Suh averaging more then Watt yikes I know he's a dominate player but too much IMO. His stats can't really speak for him though as he is always going against 2 or 3

His reworked contract cut his cap hit in, like, half, or something.

 

And who cares about his actual salary because Pegula <3 also can we haz Bridgewater? thx

Still, runningbacks are a dime a dozen and they decline earlier than any other position so paying a 27 year old rb 16 million next year seems risky. Oh, and you gave up a stud linebacker too.

[burlingtonbandit]

As a Colts fan I can tell you firsthand how much I hate trading assets for RBs...I hate the Trent trade at the time and I hate it even more now.
