Should the Bills Trade for a Wide Receiver?

by Steve

Wayyyy back in August, which right now seems like a decade ago, the Bills upset everyone and traded (read: gave) away Lee Evans for a fourth round pick. The trade made no sense at the time and still doesn't. Yes, Evans has done jack shit since being moved to Baltimore but now the Bills have two receivers on IR (Marcus Easley and Roscoe Parrish) and have another out 4-6 weeks (Donald Jones). So should the Bills trade for a wide receiver before the NFL trade Oct. 18th?

There was a rumor that 30 year old free agent to be Brandon Lloyd is available :"**UPDATED NFL RUMORS**Source: Brandon Lloyd has been made avail from Denver they want a (#2) as of now. Redskins / Titans / Bills interested"

A 2nd round pick? hahaha not a chance, but the 4th we got from Baltimore? Possibly. I mean c'mon this team is down to Naaman Roosvelt, who has shown some sparks of decency but is still average, Ruvell Martin and a third string QB. Yikes.

This team is making a serious playoff push, something just about no one thought was possible Sept 10th. It might be time for Ralph or Russ or who ever is sitting on the wallet to stand up open that shit up and bust a move.

The difference between winning and losing in the National Football League is miniscule. One player added here or there (and not from the practice squad) could conceivably make the difference. And no I'm not talking about suicidal Terrell Owens either (jeez get a grip T.O. AND anyone that would consider signing him). The Bills don't HAVE to do anything, probably won't do anything but definitely should do something. Furthermore, it would spark the team (if they even need one) and the fans. It could show the front office is now committed to winning and a move could make the difference between the division the wildcard or a twelfth playoff-less season.
