    Can The Bills Trade Leodis McKelvin?

    Leodis has a $4.9 million cap hit in 2015 and 2016.

    http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-b...odis-mckelvin/

    McKelvin turns 30 in early September and will become an UFA in 2017.

    $4.9 million is cheap for teams in desperate need of a legitimate starting cornerback.

    Corey Graham proved last year that he can replace Leodis McKelvin.

    Graham won the season opener in Chicago playing out of his mind great against the Bears.

    Then he had another great game against Miami and the Bills were 2-0.

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/gamelo...1/corey-graham

    A week later, Marrone and Schwartz effectively benched him for some unknown reason that still lingers and wreaks like limburger cheese.

    Graham turns 30 years old in July.

    Corey Graham has a $4.45 million cap hit in 2015, $4.675 million cap hit in 2016, and $4.775 million cap hit in 2017 and becomes an UFA in 2018.

    What's Leodis McKelvin worth on the open NFL market?

    You would have said the same damned thing if I suggested trading Kiko 7 days ago.

    No one expected something like this to come together, it happened in 20 minutes.

    Because Graham is the better player that costs less, and is signed through the 2017 season.

    McKelvin also handles special teams work for us, returning the ball. People forget where people play all the time & what they do. How were the Bills special teams last season ??

    Yah but we wouldn't get nearly the talent like McCoy for mckelvin. I'd rather have mckelvin then some mid round pick who could be cut in training camp.

    Special teams were great last year, but I don't recall McKelvin having anything to do with that.

    All I remember is his fumble against the Patriots and then his lawn got torched.

    Player for player trades are very rare in the NFL.

    I'm talking a draft pick or two. It would be nice to have an extra 2nd or 3rd round pick next year to trade up if need be.

    McKelvin is going to have a great career after his football playing days as a public speaker or on the radio reading for the blind.

    They wouldn't get a 2nd Round pick for McKelvin.. The Bills are trying to the playoffs in 2015 they don't give a **** right now about trading up in the 2016 draft

    I like your tenacity, Ginger Vitis.

    What's McKelvin worth in this year's draft?

    I think McMumbles is worth at least a 3rd round draft pick.

    Would you take another 3rd rounder in 2015 in exchange for LM?

    I would, and the only reason why is because Corey Graham is a Buffalo Bill.

    Might be able to get Alonso back for him if we throw in some picks.
