      The longer we wait on this the better deal it becomes, IMO. Trade him on draft day for 2011 picks.
      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.

          if we could grab mcnabb and build the o-line we'd be golden. otherwise mcnabb behind a shaky line has never worked out for the best.

            Other than what I reported a few weeks ago stating the two teams have talked? No.

            But this somewhat piggy-backs what I reported, although doesn't state the Bills directly have spoken with them.

              I'm not too excited about trading 1st or 2nd rounders for a guy that could very well leave after this upcoming season.

                  I heard a while ago that Philly would be interested in swapping 1st. I'd be more than gladly to swap firsts and give up a 3rd for McNabb. That way you take the best LT on the board at 22, then take the best NT in the 2nd. Pick 4 goes to an OLB and the you find a qb to groom like Snead, Zac Robinson or John Crompton to groom for later. Seriously, this scenario has us in the playoffs.

                    A contract extension would have to be part of the deal IMO but if that got done, I would gladly sign up for 2 or 3 years of McNabb in Buffalo.

                      Duh, my ass. It takes two sides to sign a contract.

                      If, as Rockstar says, an extension is agreed upon before the trade, then I'd be fine with trading for him.

                      I'm not so sure McNabb would do that, though.

                        For those who say we can trade Marshawn to Philly, the Eagles just signed Saints FA RB Mike Bell yesterday, and now have him and LeSean McCoy. So, not sure if they want to deal for another RB.

                          LOL... A SECOND FOR MCNABB? If the Bills give up a 2nd round pick for McNabb, then I'd be PISSED. Anything more than a 3rd rounder would be a waste. Super Bowl? Give me whatever you're smoking. Let's try wild card first before we even start with this super bowl talk.

                            I agree, 3rd and a player maybe or nothing. I am tired of stop gap players at crucial positions...fix the line and get a future QB
