BBTV Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Eagles have agreed to trade LeSean McCoy to the Bills for LB Kiko Alonzo.Apparently Alonzo is an Oregon guy so maybe Chip Kelly likes him, but is he good? I've never heard of him (not that I've heard of a lot of non-superstar players.)I knew McCoy was likely to have to restructure due to his cap number, or be traded as part of their quest to get Mariota, but I didn't expect this. A top 2 or 3 RB for a linebacker? And now the Eagles have... Darren Sprowles and Chris Polk in the backfield? Wow.https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/572902611755659264https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/572903839977885696 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Jim Schwartz had that defense playing well last year without him. Rex Ryan must see him as expendable and Shady will replace the oft-injured CJ Spiller who hits free agency.

DCarp1231 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 So who replaces McCoy? Polk would be the best in-house option, but who could they sign in free agency or via trade?My Top 3-1. DeMarco Murray2. Marshawn Lynch3. Reggie Bush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshawn Lynch3. Reggie BushRB doesn't really matter too much anymore. Especially in their offense, you could probably plug any avg-to-above-average back in there and be fine... as long as you have good QB play.They have a very strong line, and it's going to get even stronger if they spend some of this new-found money on a replacement for RG Todd Herremans.So now in consecutive off seasons they dropped Deshawn Jackson and LeSean McCoy for nothing. How many teams just essentially cut two players of that caliber?

Cosmic Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Love this for the Bills. They didn't really miss Alonso last year, Fred Jackson will eventually get old (even though I love him), and I don't think CJ Spiller is the answer.If only they had a QB...

Rockstar Matt Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Thank you Eagles. Shady McCoy was literally the only Eagles player that you HAD to pay attention to. He made that entire offense better. Foles is going to have a rough season next year. Can't wait. Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Murray is leaving. He's also already stated that he wants to win a Super Bowl above all else so he'll sign with the team that he feels gives him the best chance, which again, is the Cowboys.

Not too long, not too short though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too long, not too short though.4 years for $16MM has been on the table for Murray since September, and he has well out-performed that. However, his 392 carries from last season puts him ready to be bit by the Curse of 370. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS729 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Reggie Bush wouldn't be a bad fit at all for the Eagles offense it seems... perfect back who won't have to handle a full workload and can catch out of the backfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No team will get much out of him. Yea last year he did, what's to say he will have that type of year again? Year before last was a very good year, in the right system he can flourish. I think he can in chips system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too long, not too short though.Murray is such a tricky item for the Cowboys. I mean he was the most productive back in the league last year, but was injury riddled the two seasons before that. I love what he brings to the team, but I worry that last season was a fluke and he can't keep that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001mark Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 He had a ton of touches in 2014, & certain to see a lot fewer in 2015, there really is no way he'll be as prolific again yes? I guess Dallas figures as much & isn't scared to lose him, even if they won't want to. @2001mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Cowboys are just about to enter a 2-3 year championship window. I'm sure Murray believes that too.

Plus not everybody is gonna have bad years after 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
