Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills

[rambo2]

He'll point out to cowboy nation that he fought hard even though he wasn't 100 percent. Watch

I'm watching.

Got a third for him years after Dallas let him go for a fifth.

A perfect example of Jerry's incompetence.

Hey don’t underestimate the boy genius. We traded our 4th for a backup to the backup qb in Lance.

true but it doesnt change the fact the GM/Owner mad a bad desicion on a hasty trade because that player publicly pissed him off.

Don’t disagree. We’re a A- drafting team (McClay), but a D- with FA and trades (jones).

• We pay the wrong homegrown players.
• We wait too long to pay the right homegrown players.
• When we do decide to cut ties, we wait too late and never get higher value than a low comp pick.
• We only sign over the hill FAs or JAGs for scraps.
• When we trade for talent, it’s for a player of the same caliber that could be found in FA during the offseason.

The only exception to this rule is the acquisition of Amari cooper, and we squandered that later.

Lol, who cares about this now? What you should be upset about is not signing D. Henry when he was sitting there for the taking.

Baby steps Rambo. It’s good to see.

It was a no brainer to sign Henry.

Amari is a free agent next year. He'll sign a decent deal and net the Bills (if they don't re-sign him) a something like a 5th - 7th round compensation pick.

Browns wanted to get rid of the salary and not wait. Cooper has more value as a pending FA with no looming dead money to a team because of that.

Also, the Browns took on about 20 mill in a guaranteed contract for Amari. Cleveland restructured Amari's final year ... the Bills are paying close to a minimum salary on him for the rest of the year.

Does that explain things to you?

Too much info?

Tl;dr -- the Browns took on 20 mill in guaranteed money. The Bills took on like $500,000. Not about the player.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Awesome now we can rest with the Amari back to the Cowboys mess!!

We're bringing back Dez now?

 

[JustChip]

They would have traded me for a 5th as well then lol.

Me, too. Actually, it would’ve been a two-fer with me and the child bride.

 

[DandyDon52]

fish said cleveland ate most of this years salary to trade him, so he is cheap to the bills, and only cost them the draft pick.
Dallas could have got him for like 1 mil and the pick.
use him for 1 year then let him walk.

 

[Typhus]

Buffalo has reasons to go all in. Dallas should be selling.

Most intelligent post in this thread.

 

[fairviewfarmer]

My question is why did the Browns want to trade him away? He's been productive for them. Is he a head case and that is why he finds himself on his 4th team in his career?

 

[HungryLion]

It was a no brainer to sign Henry.

I agree. They really dropped the ball on that one.

 

[Loso86]

You don’t sound too smart you said SB contenders….now you’re back peddling saying contenders.

They are SB contenders not back peddling at all, but good for you to try and find something to use!

 

[Loso86]

Lions, Vikings, San Fran, Chiefs all have a legit chance at a SB. Bills are a flawed team and certainly not a Amari Cooper away from winning a SB but when they win the SB I’ll eat crow and admit you were right.

Vikings lmao. What makes those teams SB contenders and not the Bills!?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Vikings lmao. What makes those teams SB contenders and not the Bills!?

Vikings haven’t lost a game yet lol.

 

[Proof]

Don't forget to factor in his salary with that trade to the Browns. That basically was the trade...his salary.

which they promptly converted and made extremely palatable and tradeable

 

[Proof]

Only thing funny about this is Philly gave the same compensation to the Commies for Dotson

that was and is still a headscratcher

 

[Proof]

How the hell are you gonna sit here and tell me what was or wasn’t my conversation with somebody?

What type of gaslighting nonsense is this?


Were you there? Were you involved in our conversation? No? Then shut the hell up.

I also never said Amari was traded due to Dak. Now you’re just putting words in my mouth. So again, shut the hell up.

yeah that was an odd post. the reason for trading him doesn't even matter in the context of what you're talking about lol

 

[Loso86]

Vikings haven’t lost a game yet lol.

Lmao they have same darn old bro please look at the whole team and not the record. What makes the others SB contenders and not the Bills? If you just don't like them say that!
