Most likely wont get any takers but he out there sound like we will be going DE at 11.
Allen Wilson, of The Buffalo News, reports the Buffalo Bills have floated DE Chris Kelsay's name as a trade possibility, according to a league source.

We are either rebuilding or bracing ourselves for something big. Stock piling draft picks to pull off a last minute trade. Peppers maybe or someone of that caliber...
You don't sign T.O to win now to rebuild... but all the trades....... Im baffled.
I am The Batman.
If we draft a DE and with four under contract (Schobel, Denney, Ellis and Kelsay) one of them has to give and I think Kelsay is the odd man out, though Denney is not completely safe.
how is getting rid of a guy that doesnt want to be here and getting some good draft picks (peters) and getting rid of a guy that should be a back up lineman (kelsay) and a 4th string receiver (parrish) make anyone think that we are rebuilding?

Because anytime you stock pile draft picks by trading players out for them, youre losing a player, and that spot will be filled by a draft pick. but not every rookie will come in and start and make a difference. so if we are relying on the draft, the notion that we are rebuilding sounds about right.Originally Posted by Tatonka
its just a thought.
I dont think we are rebuilding the FO has to know this team must compete this year or the fans just may turn on them get rid of him and stock pile some picks then trade up from 28 to draft an impact type player who will see the field this year no more projects please.
If we are lucky we could maybe get some chicken wings for him. C'mon OBD, im hungry.
Kelsay for Waters
Kelsay for Waters
More likely
Kelsay for Water
i have a feeling a tony sheffler and a brian waters trade will be happening soon. and i think that we still take a LB at 11. we will get our DE (ayers or brown) after. even if we have to move up a spot or 2 in the first.
On BB.com they said that on Sirus they were talking about Denver trading Sheffler and 18 to bills for 11.
Then we can get the Waters trade with the 3rd and possibly Henderson with a 4th if it is true.
yep already have had a heard something about that sheffler thing, and waters will look good in blue and red!
He would look horrible as a giant.
If that were true, I would do it in a heart beat.
I think they would be giving up too much. That puts late 2nd-round value on Sheffler, who probably isn't worth that given his current situation. Plus, while it may be in the Bills interest to trade down a couple slots, I don't think they want to go down to #18. That is too far.
I do think there is a good chance Scheffler gets traded, as he still wants out of Denver (he isn't at team activites) and probably doesn't fit as well into their offense as Dan Graham does. He only has 1 year left on his rookie contract and will require a new contract (probably done as part of the trade). That limits his value.
I think the Bills would have a good shot of trading for Scheffler if they want him (and he would help Trent Edwards and their offense a great deal, as he would have a lot of room in the middle with Owens/Evans on the outside), but wouldn't have to give up that much. I think his value is closer to the 4th round (and the Bills have 2), maybe late 3rd at best.

another 3rd round pick, and i be happy.
I think the Bills will be happy with the 18th
They will still have a chance at one of the LT guys like Britton or Beatty and it is also seemingly likely that someone like Everette Brown will fall.
The Broncos have two 3rds so its possible they'll include a 4th to sweeten the deal.
I would happily see the Bills trade #11 and #147 to the Broncos in return for #18, #114 and Tony Scheffler, as the team will have dealt with a need and still have three Day1 picks remaining for a DE, LB, and OT.
Even if they don't get any additional picks and its a straight R1 swap plus Scheffler, the Bills will wonder if they can get similar quality ready to start in the draft.
If they don't get Scheffler, one of their first 4 picks may go on a TE, and will be get the same quality at #75?
I just love all the activities we're having this offseason instead of the status quo approach in the past years.
It's exciting watching them give away our talent for trade picks so we can develop them and than not be able to keep them.

"Draft em and trade em"!!
The Bills have less than a week to prove to me that there is something other than saving money that they are doing over there.
A trade for Scheffler actually would make me believe that. It would probably happen if Sanchez is sitting there when we come up.
