bucsfan333 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 It's been a hot topic the last couple days. What do you guys think? I figure we could get another couple seasons out of him. He's 29, so he doesn't have much left anyway. Buffalo seems to be blowing it up and going all in for next year's draft. So it seems like a legit possibility, if we made a call.

kgarrett12486 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I know he's been very good, but he's a 29 year old RB, who's very injury plagued and has 2 years of guaranteed money still on his deal at $6 million+... I love the talent, but I wouldn't trade more than a 3rd round pick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got five guys for four spots as it is. Swapping one doesn't really change anything. Especially our best back. If we were all Super Bowl or bust, I'd be on board. But we're not.

deuces22wild Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 It's basically Shady - 2nd round pick. Not to be one of the "oh I maybe trade a 7th round pick@ guy but I would move a third round pick and Doug for Shady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggybucsfan31 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Offer them a 4th. Take it or leave it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deuces22wild Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I don't think we are SB or bust but I think we are closer to making a deep run than we are picking high in the first round anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Shorty Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I would be more interested in riding out this season and going after Bell next offseason. At that point he will only be 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't saying we will need to draft a back in the first next year. Let's just not act like we are building for the 2021 season here. I think we all know how talented the team is and the fact is we won't be selecting high in any round in the near future. I'm not losing any sleep if we don't make a move but I don't think moving a late 3rd round pick for the massive upgrade we would get from Doug to Shady would crush the draft and develop theme.

indifference Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Pass. We'll need that fourth to move up in the draft to get a steal. Shady got a few years left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
