Hmm, would not surprise me either, as Kelsay points out, a fire sale could easily happen in Buffalo.
I would not mind Roscoe Parrish, he fits a need at Returner, but the guy who would be #1 on my wish list is Lee Evans, a legit #2 Wr and deep threat.
Beast/Evans/Hartline would be a fine Wr corps.

The Bills will not trade anyone to the Dolphins or anyone else in the AFC East. Sorry to bust your bubble.

Tim Graham blog post - mods sorry if this is too much, but its pretty short overall. :)

As far as other players, I guess Lee Evans could go to a team like Washington or the Vikes maybe. Florence and Whitner would be interesting moves, with no immediately obvious spots.
The Bills biggest problem is thinking Edwards was a franchise QB for years and not reinforcing the OL. They were just good enough to make people think they could get to the playoffs for years, but were in the downward spiral all along. It will be a tough climb back up. -
I for one wouldn't object to throwing a 3rd at them for Spiller. :taunt:

Whether or not they move players inside the division it will be interesting to see what Rook GM Buddy Nix does over the next 3 weeks.
I suspect he has a bit of AJ Smith in him, but we shall see, moving Evans to the Vikes would make sense for both teams, the Vikes could afford him, the Bills really don't need him. And it would make more sense for the Bills to move Fred Jackson to Green Bay rather than Lynch. -

I DO NOT trade CJ Spiller.Desides likes this. -

I would love to have Lee Evans. He's completely checked this season though. I wonder if we'll hear the Tyler Thigpen rumors start up again.

Donte Whitner would be the best pickup for the Dolphins IMO.

For all the complaints we have had about the Fins over the last decade, Buffallo is a complete embarresment, for a once proud franchise.
Terrible coaching/gm hires, terrible drafting, complete lack of vision for building a football team. Just horrible.
Passing on Oher for Maybin was ridiculous. going Spiller over a QB/Iupati/Earl Thomas was ridiculous.
Even STL seems to have finally gotten things moving in the right direction. -
Help is on the way
Just finish last... -
Imho:
-Two Tackles
-3 Lb's
-passrushing DE assuming Maybin is the bust he appears to be.
-Te
-new Wr corps
I'd filter in some UDFA type Tackles like Meredith, and try to sign impending CFL FA Phil Hunt, churn and make do at Te and then see which Wr's want to stay in Buffalo. -

Your team’s problem is that free agents don’t want to go to Buffalo. Not the Bills. Buffalo.
If your draft success rate begins to approach Jeff Ireland levels, then you’ll be a good team again… eventually. -
Aaron Rogers took 3 yrs to develop, Curt Warner was a SB champion and made several playoff runs with both the Rams and Cardinals..
My issue with the Bills is, Nix is not very dynamic, Irish will move a player out of Miami in 2 days and bring someone else in to do the job, Nix just gave Kelsay an extension..after 3 games..and he is 30..WTH? -
Well, I followed how Ireland rebuild the Phins and he constantly churned the bottom 15 players on the roster, including practice squad players, Nix isn't doing so.
that is how Gems are found, if you keep running the same players out on the field, you will get the same results, why not take some shots like starting Donald Jones?
In 2008, Ireland made 100+ roster moves..how many has Nix made? -
-
That brings up a question really, how many more bad years can Buffalo withstand before the team packs bags and heads to LA or Toronto or something?gunn34 likes this. -

Jake Locker is possibly worse, he does not impress me at all.
Oct 19th is the trade deadline, if Moss went for a 3rd, what would Evans value be?
4th maybe? -
That would be a whopping bargain, Evans for a 5th?
He does have a largish contract, but that is Roscoe Parrish value. -
And he has never had leg injuries..at least AFAIK..put him in the Deep Threat position across from Beast. -
-
Atta boy, stay optimistic...
-
Also think there may be some more trades in the works. -
