    Bills trade for Lerentee McCray

    According to several guys I follow on twitter (all from the media) we just acquired that guy from the Packers for a pick. He's a linebacker


    All I've found on him is that he's mostly a special teams player. He was in Denver last year and played only on 10% of defensive snaps.

    Why would we trade for a special teamer?

    Phew. At first glance I thought we traded McCoy away.

    7th round pick most likely.

    That would be the question to the GM and the two Ryan tubs.

    Maybe because the guy that we previously acquired to play special teams is now our starter.

    Oy, from Denver to Green Bay to Buffalo in just 8 months. If he gets dropped by us, he'll be doing the Argos laundry next.

    Or because the team has gotten advance word on Lawson.

    I'm waiting for someone to name their kid Garagedooropener. Or Kasimi, but that probably already happened.

    I like to think I follow football and know a decent amount of this. I have never heard of this man. You even explained who he was and I still half expect he's the football version of Taro Tsujimoto.

    Doesn't every Buffalonian remember the pride of Tokyo?

    His wiki page is updated to say that he was traded for a 2018 undisclosed pick. It better be a 7th rounder.

    There was a player some years ago named Reggie Fudge. Thankfully, he never played for Green Bay...

    Re: Bills trade for Lerentee McCray

    Trades now are usually guys going to be cut anyway.

    I keep thinking that by the time Ryan is gone, and they do a complete rebuild again, no one is going to miss or remember any of the players he collected.

    Re: Bills trade for Lerentee McCray

    I highly doubt this is an indication of Manny Lawson's 1-game suspension. teams don't waste ANY draft pick for a game suspension.

    LB corp overall is the weakest unit of the Bills D, maybe the entire team. You can probably count on Hughes and P. Brown. Manny is 32 year old, not an age that you expect to play every down. More than likely, Striker and the recently signed Biermann are not up to what Rex's liking.

    Because we are arrogant enough to believe that we arew smarter than other teams despite....

    Food Stamp will be a draft pick in 2021.
