Losing Wang may speed up a move for a LT

[X-Era]

My feeling is that Gaither will be moved somewhere before training camp. Now, with Wang hurt, the Bills may be more pressed to get a deal done.

Thoughts?

Well it should have happened a while ago.

I dont see if happening. Im sure they werent having the thinking of him starting at LT so no. Maybe sign another depth guy if Wang is out long term if that.

Yeah I just don't see this. Maybe if Gaither was the last piece for a playoff caliber team. We are rebuilding. There is no desperation at this point.

I really don't think they were going to lean on a rookie OT who is probably still a ways off from being ready. I doubt they're sitting there in a panic, if Gaither was going to get moved, I feel like it would have happened already, and I still don't think the deal would be worth it.

I hope so, but I doubt it. I'd be surprised if Nix and Co were leaning heavily on Wang contributing too much this season anyway.

not going to happen unless lynch gets moved for a pick and they use that pick and another to get gaither.

I don't think they are in 'panic mode' about this, at all.
Apparently with Torbor signing, they are now at their full compliment for this stage of proceedings. I doubt that Wang was expected to be contributing this year anyway. I did think they might bring another body in for the remaining OTAs, if he isn't going to be ready until TC, but now I'm not so sure.
I think the 'plan', is to be evaluating what they've got through the OTAs, and if they aren't convinced then, they will make a move before TC.
Gaither, for the right price, would have made sense, as an obvious improvement, but I don't think they feel forced to move as yet.

Being realistic, Gaither's price just shot through the roof with the Wang injury-- I don't see Buddy getting the deal done.

Why? It's not as if Wang was going to start.

i think they wait for somebody (maybe a veteran) to get cut in August.

And you know this how? The Bills need an LT even more now-- laws of economics dictate the Ravens can demand a higher price.

He's the only LT that hasn't proven himself a bust yet.
