HTTRDynasty Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think that's a great move for you guys. Darby was a shutdown CB his rookie year. I'm salty at the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalamania Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I'm a big fan of this move. Think Darby has a lot of potential and he's shown flashes before. Can we get a pulse check on @Nabbs4u? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phire Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Wowzer, I'm all for adding a stud from FSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlash Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Darby is a pretty good player. Hurts giving up that 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesPeteC Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Wow! That is a shocking move. It's a good move. I guess they feel good about Nelson and Mack. Getting Darby is HUGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furti Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Matthews AND a third round pick? Darby is a good player but this not good value. Especially since NFL.com had the pick the other way around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSean Jackson Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Today is crazy... I liked Matthews and the players loved him too. But we needed a cb. Darby had a big drop off in success last season but his rookie season he showed he can play at a high level. He also is signed until 2019 and only costs 800k this season. We weren't gonna resign Matthews so it's good we got something for him. Now our team is way more balanced. Patric Robinson can become the slot where he excelled at. Mills can be our second cb now not our number 1. And this adds room for a 5th wr other than Mack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jlash Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Darby has good size and blazing speed, he's proven he can be a capable corner in this league. I like Matthews but without corners we need to score 30 a game to have a shot. Darby can be a big help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jroc04 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Quick reaction is that its quite a lot to give up. I would figure a guy like Darby would be able to get got for a 3rd alone. But I guess given the control and the lack of pressure to move him, the Bills controlled the negotiations. Howie might have got the short end on this one but if Darby is an above average CB then I'll say it's a good move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlash Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Bills gave up their top corner and top WR to get back lesser versions of both. But it's nice to collect a couple picks in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
