    Forked Thread: New England trades Moss back to Minny for a 3rd?!?!

    OK, Belichick is a complete fool. The man will never win anything in this league. A 3rd?? For Moss?? Is he insane? He should have traded him during training camp or maybe waited longer and gotten a 2nd!!

    :sarcasm:

    Um...where's all the screaming today folks?? The Bills got a 4th and a conditional for a guy who has had two run-ins with the law and will NEVER get a sniff of the HOF. NE just traded a player, who might end up being, the 2nd best WR EVER (stats wise) for a 3rd round pick. I don't see anybody bashing Belichick like they did the Bills FO yesterday. Anybody still want to argue that the Bills didn't get value??

        Pretty simple.

        Market value.

        McGahee was young, and had showed talent. Baltimore badly needed a RB, so his value went up.

          So they got him for a 4th I think, used him for a few years, and got a 3rd for him.

          It seems like New England is playing chess, the rest of the league is playing checkers, and the Bills are playing "Let's bang these two rocks together".
          "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

            McGahee had way more potential, fwiw.

              ????????

              Lynch is young, has shown some talent, and a few teams badly need a RB

              Your reply doesn't answer my question accept for perceived market value.

                He's also one step from a year long suspension. The guy has the potential of being out of the league - for good - tomorrow.

                  Sorry that is one I don't follow at all... He was malcontent behind a crappy OL and O who phones it in for the Bills

                  Lynch is very similiar, different running sytles, but at the point of the trade there really was 0 differentiating Lynch from McGahee

                    Um, maybe because he's 33 and in the final year of his contract? Yeah, that's entirely comparable to a 24-year-old.

                      I wouldn't say out of the league for good.. That's extremly far fetched...

                      McGahee wasn't exactly a stand up guy off field etiher.. But I still don;'t see the big value diffences between these 2 players..

                      Well at least from what I remember from McGahee running the ball for the Bills. In fact he had less yard per cary in his Bills career then Lynch and arguably a better OL to run behind

                        You should look at the various trades around the league this year compared to several years ago. How many high-level picks (1st through 3rd) are being traded for players? Very, very few. In times of uncertainty with the CBA and an extremely limited pool of free agents, teams seem to be less willing to part with high draft picks.

                            Not true. McGahee wasn't a malcontent. He irritated Bills fans. Nobody in the football department had a complaint about him. Also, McGahee wasn't one step from never playing again.

                              Brandon Marshall has a longer rap sheet than Lynch, and he got two 2nds.
