Why Buffalo’s trade deadline left GM ‘furious’ after flurry of rumors

The Buffalo The Bills look like one of the NFL’s best teams heading into Sunday 10. Buffalo is 6-2 after taking down Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City in Week 9. Unfortunately, the Bills were unable to make any waves at the NFL’s trade deadline on Tuesday. And their front office is not happy about it.

Account General Manager Brandon Beane he said “he went home mad like any fan” after Tuesday’s trade deadline, per ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg.

Beane wanted to make a trade, but emphasized that he has faith in the roster as it currently stands. He still believes Buffalo can win a championship without adding new players.

The Bills GM noted that “it takes 2 to be able to do it” regarding the team’s inactivity at the deadline, according to VGRZ’s John Scott.

Beane too shot down the rumours players for accounts that are available through trade.

“There are rumors that this person is available and this person is available and they are not available,” he added, according to Scott.

The Bills could use reinforcements at several positions, namely edge rusher and wide receiver. Especially after losing Michael Hoecht for the rest of the season.

Ultimately, Buffalo should be fine as long as QB Josh Allen stays healthy.

The Bills are rumored to have inquired about Jakobi Myers before the trade to the Jaguars

There is at least one player the Bills are rumored to have kicked the tires at the trade deadline.

Buffalo was clearly among the teams that spoke to Las Vegas about VR Jacobi Meyersaccording to Diana Rusina of the Athletic.

The former Patriots wide receiver revitalized his career with the Raiders. He had a breakout season in 2024, hauling in 87 receptions for 1,027 yards and four touchdowns. He would be a great addition to Buffalo’s high-powered offense.

Meyers ended up in Jacksonville in exchange for a pair of late-round draft picks.

It’s fascinating to wonder why the Raiders decided the Jaguars were the better destination for Meyers. Perhaps they believed Buffalo’s picks would be too low after acquiring Meyers, assuming the Bills would have more success in the playoffs.

Either way, Buffalo needs to forget the idea of ​​adding players via trade and focus on winning with what they already have.

Next up for the Bills is a Week 10 matchup against the lowly Dolphins.
