Buffalo Bills @buffalobills
We've acquired CB E.J. Gaines and a 2018 2nd round pick from the Rams for WR Sammy Watkins and a 2018 6th round pick.

Interesting. Do you know if Gaines is any good?

wow so the Bills traded S.Watkins and 2018 6th round pick to the Rams for EJ Gaines and 2018 2nd round pick.
Then the Bills traded Ronald Darby and 2018 3rd round pick for Jordan Matthews.
Wow!!
Heck Ravens should swooped in for Watkins long ago if that was the asking price.
Bills gave up more to get Jordan Matthews wth

The Bills have now got Jordan Matthews & a 3rd round pick for Ronald Darby
They've lost Darby & Watkins in one day.
NFL com post said bills gave up Darby and 3rd rounder for Matthews ( which I was thinking was a bit much ).
But I see ESPN has it like you said! Guess I'll wait to see which one is accurate although it would make more sense if the Eagles gave up the pick to me.
Didn't see this I posted the trade under other teams lol

I'm seeing mixed messages about that Darby-Matthews trade. Some saying the Bills get Matthews & a 3rd round pick but others saying the Bills are actually giving up a 3rd round pick.
Okay, so I personally like the Sammy Watkins trade. They probably weren't going to give him the contract he wanted given that he he'll command over $10M per year on potential alone and they got ANOTHER second round pick for next year.
However, I hate the trade for Jordan Matthews. You have two second rounders and a third rounder. You couldn't work out a trade using just picks? Ronald Darby is one of the up and coming corners in the league and he's got like two years of control left.

Apparently the NFL thought the incident was so severe that if Ezekiel Elliot has more issues like this, he could be banned from the NFL.

Wow, it would be a shame if that happens. Hopefully the suspension sets him straight.

What a day! First on the Rams/Bills/Eagles trade, think it worked out for the best for all parties. Now fot the Bills, eatch Watkins stay healthy in LA and have a monster year. Also looks like they are gaining draft picks in order to build the team through the draft.
As for Elliott, this suspension is step one toward being the next Josh Gordon. Hope he doesn't let off the field issues destroy the talent he has on the field.

I didn't like trading Darby and I'm not sure Buffalo has that speed element anymore, but other than that, killed it in terms of draft picks.

Now TMZ is back to their old tricks, just like they magically obtained the Ray Rice elevator footage, they now have leaked pictures of bruises on Elliott's accuser.

Wasn't there leaked texts that showed this girl lied in order to set him up and even told one of her friends to lie about what happened? Also he was just accused, never charged so why does the NFL think they can suspend him before he is charged? I see this playing out just like Brady where Elliott will sue in order to push his suspension back for a whole year.
When that pick went down my first thought was, do you think you are Al Davis or something. Aguayo isnt Sebastian Janikowski and even if he is, he will be available later.
