What do you think about trading McCoy while we can still get something for him? Its not like we are challenging for a Super Bowl this year or anytime soon. He deserves better than this.
I’m not sure he does. McCoy is our star player. Often our entire offense. He wouldn’t get that elsewhere.
I'm against trading McCoy. McCoy is a legitimate potential future HOFer. IMO, you can't put a price on that kind of everlasting value that can be provided to a franchise and fan base. I would like to see McCoy finish out his career in Buffalo playing 2-3 more years with us. That would make him feel like a real Bills HOFer and not just a player we rented for a few seasons on his way to the HOF.
The value of RB's is pretty watered down too, especially for one approaching 30 years old. I can't imagine we would net more than a second round pick. Just not worth it. We are loaded with 2nd and 3rd round picks as is.
McCoy has hinted at wanting to play for a long time. Can he do the unthinkable and play at a high level in his mid 30's? Not sure, but it would be cool to see if he could be the RB equivalent of Brady and Drew Brees.
McCoy is elusive and doesn't take the big hits as often as lesser RB's, it's his running style that has kept him in good shape. I agree, I'd like to see him for 2-3 more years and retire as a Bill.
This draft was a disaster. I don't think Allen was worth 2 number 2's. They should have swung of the fences and got Darnold. Allen has accuracy problems which are rarely fixed, just because Cam Newton was of similar build doesn't mean Allen will be anywhere near as good. At least we can have fun looking at his old tweets:
Absolutely love the Edmunds and Phillips picks. Linebacker was easily our biggest need behind QB and we were able to land a guy who is a freak athlete at the position that has also been highly productive. And Phillips will be a great guy to groom under Kyle this season. He was rated a a mid second round pick and we get him with the next to last pick in the third round. That's some good value there.
As for Allen, it's no secret I was very low on him going into the draft. I still feel that way, but he's our QB of the future now so I'll have to give him a chance as we all should. I just can't see how his production could be so bad his senior year at Wyoming against inferior competition. Had he at least put up the numbers he did the season prior I'd feel more confident in him. All that said, I can't way to see this guy in pre-season action to see how he looks.
The more I learn about Allen the more I like the kid. He still has bust potential but his potential is sky high. I like that he participated in the senior bowl game and practices and showed that the stage was far from too big for him.
