Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
Agreed, I wouldn't be shocked if teams like New England with two picks, Steelers, Colts, Eagles, possible might take him as a change of pace back.Originally posted by patmoran2006

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
i would like willis too, but lynch is the perfect running back for this offense. his receiving skills are top notch, and his running skills cant be described as bruiser or scat back, because he can do both.
the guy is just awesome.

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
The Source is Mark Eckel, who covers the Eagles/NFL for the Trenton Times. He does a pretty good job and knows the league pretty well. You can find the article, which ran today, HERE.
Here is the relevant section, which sounds like his own speculation:
Baltimore acquired running back Willis McGahee from Buffalo for a third-round and a seventh-round pick this year and a third-round pick next year.
The Ravens get a younger Ja maal Lewis to keep their power running game intact. Buffalo gets a late first-day pick and a bottom pick. It's a good thing the Bills have some of the best people in the league running their draft, but this was not a good trade.
Buffalo will take Cal's Marshawn Lynch in the first round to replace McGahee, but who knows if he'll be as good. And all that does is preclude them from filling other needs, and they have plenty.Comment

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
It's still early March. I doubt the Bills along with most teams have made any decisions concerning the draft.Comment

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
I love how this guy thinks it's etched in stone that we "will" take someone. Good job, chief. It's March 12th.
By the way, this is the same publication that said we were going to sign Adam Vinatieri a couple offseasons back.Comment

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
Right now it is looking more and more like the Bills will take Lynch in the first round, even though that is not what I would like to see them do.
Lynch is okay and would be a fit for the Bills' offense, so I wouldn't be that upset if they take him. But, I'd rather see them use that pick to shore up their defense and take a RB later on. Still, Marv has been around the game a lot longer than I have and I'm sure that he and the rest of the Bills' braintrust know what they are looking for and what they are seeing in the RBs in this draft and I will trust them to decide what will be the best way to proceed for the sake of the team. And, then, we'll see how it works out. For all I know, Lynch could be the second coming of Thurman Thomas and I could end up being delighted that he was the guy they went with!Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.Comment

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
If there is a way to get Patrick Willis and Marshawn Lynch in the 1st, then I would be happy, very ****ing happy.

Re: Rumor with us and Lynch
Id be frickin thrilled with Willis and BushI 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.
