    I hope we DONT trade Spikes

    We have no vet leadership on this defense, I would NOT trade Takeo Spikes unless we can rob someone like the Jets did to the Bears for THomas Johnes.

    Give the former Pro Bowler a chance to see where he's at.. We sure as hell dont need the cap room. If the doesnt work out THEN you can cut him and you still have Ellison.

    I like Levy's aggressiveness (to this point) but I think trading Spikes is gonig to be a big mistake if we do.

    The one thing that would make me change my mind on this is if we signed June, but that aint gonna happen.

    Re: I hope we DONT trade Spikes

    What's the deal with Briggs? What happened to that talk of the Bills trading Spikes and pick(s) for Briggs?

      I would trade him for a 2nd and a 3rd and either draft a few lb's in the draft or use the picks to go after Briggs.

        Re: I hope we DONT trade Spikes

        I think at this point I have to agree. Unless Spikes plans on being a biznitch and demands a trade. Then he needs to go, we need to gel.

        Plus I will officially have zero active Bills jerseys... Bledsoe, Spikes, Fletcher, Milloy...
        I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
        "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
        You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
        It was all         true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
        He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can         mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

          Re: I hope we DONT trade Spikes

          while Spikes has underperformed lately, we're short LB's and there is that whole vet leadership thing. It would have to be a hell of a deal for it to be worth our while, and I don't see that happening with his recent history.

              I have Spikes and Evans (and a cheap Willis I never wore and a MIke Williams )Going classic is best. Andre Reed and Jack Kemp.

              BTW, I agree with Pat (I think this is 3 days in a row!) keep Spikes around. Draft Willis and then Bush.

              If they do that, I might have to dance.

                Re: I hope we DONT trade Spikes

                I'd trade Spikes for a 4th, but then again, that kinda messes with our draft, 'cause we'd basically have to get a linebacker earlier. Unlike many here, I have no problem with Ellison starting. So it's a bit of a double-edged deal, unless TKO starts spouting off about it, in which case we don't really have a choice. Maybe if we do get a LB, we can trade him during or before the season to some one who needs one....
                Good riddance Fairchild. Of course, the knowledge of your departure will only make TE more hateable than the typical Bills QB. Good luck, hope we don't mess you up like JP.

                  Only way I would think about trading Spikes is if the Bears are interested and would be willing to trade us Briggs. Or if we find a way to sign Cato June.

                      Re: I hope we DONT trade Spikes

                      Spikes' own comments are his undoing in Buffalo. Marv doesn't want anyone in Buffalo who doesn't believe in the organization or doesn't want to be here. Unless TKO has a change of heart, I don't see him being here much longer.

                      "Leadership, I've often said, is the ability to get other people to get the best out of themselves. And I thought it's manifested more by getting people to join you rather than follow you. In other words, they join you over a period of time because they believe what you're doing and in each other. And you have to have people who are receptive and who are personally and intrinsically motivated, too." - Marv

                          what comments are those? did I miss something? I haven't heard Spikes say he wants out or that he's not happy with the direction of the team.
                          Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

                            I'd trade Spikes away for a box of practice tees for Mr Lindell personally.

                              that's fine but we still need bodies to play LB. I like the commitment to character and the commitment to special teams, but sometimes it hurts the team in terms of lack of available bodies at certain positions. We already had to play Wire at LB last year and now we're down Fletcher too.
