Buffalo Bills trade Lee Evans for a 4th

by Steve

I said a couple days ago the only reason to move Lee Evans is because you were getting a 2nd round pick or a conditional 3rd AND were using the money to spend on a position of need. The Bills will do neither and gave Evans away for a 4th to the Baltimore Ravens. (They save about $10 mil over the final two years of Evans contract)

There is no defending this organization. They are cheap, they are not trying to win and they are a terrible franchise. The only way on Earth that this makes sense is they love a player that unequivocally can not stay healthy (Marcus Easley) or they think the likes of Donald Jones and Buster Davis can be game changers.

Ok, there is one reason this trade makes sense, they love the 4th round in 2012. Or they are truly trying to lose every game so they can draft Andrew Luck?

As my cousin pointed out to me wouldn't they be better off signing Stevie Johnson BEFORE trading Evans? He is clearly the #1 now and has all the leverage. Just another nuance of their ineptitude.

True Lee Evans only had 37 catches and hasn't been a major factor in the offense the last few years. And true they have never won with Lee Evans. But he was a first round pick, he clearly has talent and is a major deep threat. Furthermore, it proves that we're not trying to win and hurts the psyche of the team. Just look at Drayton Florence's twitter feed, he sounds suicidal.

Another fun year at RWS ...
