Lynch to San Diego?

[Ed]

I can't read the article since I don't have insider, but it says Lynch may be traded to SD for a 4th round pick.

4th round pick? That would make me sick! unless it's a conditional one...

Re: Lynch to San Diego?

If the Bills are smart, they hold onto Lynch until his stock is up. Why would we trade him when he had the worst year of his career last season? It doesn't make sense. It's not like we have another back that is ready to step in.

it even calls it a "wild rumor"...ive never seen anything in those ESPN insider rumors come true, it is basically as reliable as anyone on here making a bold prediction. this would actually make sense for SD tho

I would just keep him if we only get a 4th.

a 4th no a 3rd yes

Re: Lynch to San Diego?

Given Lynch's off-the-field problems and lack of production, I could see why they would move him. However:

1. Lynch and Jackson are the only RB's on our roster, and we'd be creating another hole.
2. A 4th is too low. I'd say a 3rd is fair given the other issues I described.

i suggested this in another thread, but what about Lynch in a deal to san diego with Vincent Jackson coming back -- even if a pick has to go back to san diego.

i realize that lynch has some off - field issues that decrease his value, but so does Jackson. in fact, he may face a suspension for a 2nd DUI.

this does fill a need for the bills and for the chargers.

I wouldn't take anything less than a third.

And with the 9th pick the bills select ....C.J. Spiller

Re: Lynch to San Diego?

I understand the wish for higher compensation ... but outside of SD, there may be zero market for a backup who is 1 strike away from a 1 year suspension.

The new administration may not want any distractions, coming into their first camp (see Incognito) .

It would also fuel the C.J. Spiller thinking.

What? When did that happen?

Yeah what is this Jackson DUI thing?

Never heard of 1 even.

Interesting thought, but if we did that, we'd be creating a hole at RB and trading away a draft pick, which reduces our ability to fill holes.

Now, RB is an easy hole to fill, so if we were in a better situation, I'd be all for it. But at the moment, the switch to the 3-4 leaves us hurting on D and we still need to fix the O. I think it's too much for us to afford at the moment.

And that's assuming SD would even give him up, which I doubt.

He is referring to Vincent Jackson, not Fred Jackson.
