yes there are reasons that justify the Eagles move, money being one, but look at it this way Spiller has never even played a playoff game, he isn't worth half of what McCoy makes his career has been a disappointment. McCoy is arguably top three in the NFL at his position. I know we like to play GM here and say player A isn't worth this if player B is worth that, but facts remain facts, a guy produces on the field and that is the only true measurable. McCoy should have more production he has had over 1,400 carries compared to Spillers 650 and McCoy has an additional year of service. It's not just a Spiller v. McCoy debate, it's about overpaying for RB production.

Why anybody is worried about this is beyond me. Rex will find a way to ruin McCoy, just like he has almost every other offensive player in comes in contact with. Sure, Rex likes the ground and pound, but McCoy isn't a ground and pound guy. He's not a fit for Roman's power running scheme at all. Hell, why not just keep Alonso and throw a mid round pick Minnesota's way for Peterson?

Bottom line is the Bills just got better and that is all that I am concerned with, I'm not interested in managing their cap, nor should any of us be.

Look, if the Bills do not drastically fix their O line, then McCoys value will really be diminished. We have all seen that without good QB play teams will load up to stop the run against Rex and force Manuel to beat them.

Bruce Arians says the Cardinals knew LeSean McCoy was available but didn't think he was the right fit in Arizona wp.me/p14QSB-9IGM 7:57am - 4 Mar 15
Something tells me that McCoy must be a massive douchebag.
How is Ellington a fit in Arizona but McCoy isn't?

McCoy is 26 years old I'd love to be hearing Philly sports radio right now. The announcers all call him " Shady" when talking to him, like he's their BFF/brother So a bit of a Dez situation then? Yep, pretty much LOL. You should call in and rant at them. Unfortunately they don't even have toll free call in numbers in Phila like they do in NY

Whats funny is that they could have probably worked out a deal with Spiller that would cost them half as much as McCoy is going to cost them. Is McCoy really worth double what Spiller is right now? I don't think so. I think you could argue that Spiller is just as much of a gamebreaker as McCoy when healthy. You could also argue that Milliner is a shutdown corner similar to Revis....when healthy. (They're rarely healthy)

Say what you want but those are some quality offensive weapons. Shady, Watkins & Woods. All great ages too. Fully expect Rex to go after Jay Cutler now. Lol I guess it's possible, but not likely. Rex passed on trading for Cutler the first time around and went with Sanchez instead

My only concern is that the Jets become to Buffalo what the Pats were to the Jets. Rex always had the Jets ready to beat the Patriots. In two games last year versus the eventual SB champions the Jets lost 27 - 25 and 17 - 16. With our personnel we had ABSOLUTELY NO BUSINESS being in either one of those games....but somehow the Jets always seemed to play the Pats very tough.
