Giantsfan79 : 2/23/2021 8:32 pm : link
I sort of feel like the Giants ought to demand the Bills second round pick. The 61 pick for Engram seems fair. You all undervalue him too much for trade purposes! If the Giants settle for the the third round pick #94, we should get the lower of the Bill's fifth round picks #158.

The offer should be either Engram for the #61 or Engram for #94 & #158. The Bill can take either of the two.
keep in mind for Engram trade talks value

Even Erek Flowers turned out ok with a change of scenery and position. JPP has a second ring. Once they're gone, it doesn't bother me if they flourish. They didn't flourish with my favorite team, but I'm not rooting for them to fail.
Can we give the Bills

our 3rd round pick and get him off our hands?
I would take anything in return

3rd would be fantastic.

You would say that’s terrible value and pass. BUt were overly emotional and EE so we’re for it.

All of BBI wants him gone for nothing in return. When it’s really just those with that opinion that are posting. The others are just sitting on the sidelines watching. Because how do you defend someone who has not lived up to the billling, even though the reaction is overboard.

What do you think is fair trade value for Engram? I think a third is fair.
He had 11 drops last year  
adamg : 2/23/2021 10:37 pm : link
That's insane numbers.
A 3rd for a PROBOWLER

There was a tread just the other day suggesting a certain WR should be on the FA wish list who has more drops then Engram, and people seemed to be all for it?

I’m not defending Engram. But the reactions here are terrible and disrespectful to the player. He hasn’t played up to his ability and the drops need to be corrected but he hasn’t been as bad as they are making it out to be.

I think he could draw a 2nd round pick, if you look around the league there is actually a lot of need at the position. I would be happy with a 3rd though. I’d also be happy with a trade I suggested on another tread with the chargers for WR Mike Williams. I think when you really look at both situations it is a trade that works for both sides.
Specifically being placed

On the team so the defense can get great at reacting to the tip drill.....maybe gorilla glue on his gloves will help hold onto tight spirals in the sub zero cold of buffalo......

I'd be fine with that trade if we can still add LW and either a CB2 or ER in FA.

But who are you talking about had more drops than Engram? Neither Agholor or Samuel do.
I’d trade BUF’s TE Dawson Knox straight up for EE  
FranknWeezer : 2/23/2021 11:53 pm : link
Both played at Ole Miss. The Rebs’ dumbass offensive coordinator at the time, Phil Longo, never threw the ball to Knox. At all. He gets drafted and prove himself to be a red zone threat.

Bill2 : 2/24/2021 7:25 am : link
Could be a rumor designed to gin up calls to DG more so than its a Buffalo specific conversation?

Imo, EE is a fourth round return or an pre-season/in season trade if someone's TE gets injured. I just dont see a 3rd for EE.

I have to think if that were true they would have hit it.

Engram's drops directly resulted in interceptions and losses. That's why the reactions are so strong. I actually like the player, and think he's redeemable, not a popular opinion I know.
Bottom line  
Carl in CT : 2/24/2021 10:19 am : link
If he made (just a couple of average plays) that a average TE makes, we are in the playoffs. You also can argue just one play.

Yea, we can play this game with every player on the team. If Thomas makes one or two more blocks. If the secondary covers one more play. If Jones doesn't fall apart on 3-4 occasions late in many games. If Barkley doesn't get hurt. If gallman breaks one more tackle.

Engram is the convenient target. Look closer.

He had 130 yds receiving in a 2-pt win over the mighty Bengals, do they beat Cincy w/o EE? I don't think so. He scored a TD in a 3-pt win over WFT. So he was heavily involved in 2 of 6 wins. Maybe without him we would have gotten a better draft pick!

No. It's EE's walk year, so a 3rd, even a late 3rd, is fair value.

Remember Leonard Williams? He was a top 10 pick, and an acknowledged excellent run defender. 3rd and a 5th, and folks here were screaming DG overpaid at the time amd some still cry about it.

And he proved himself to be a very, very good DL last year, if not an absolute top shelf DL like Buckner, Jones, or Darnold.
His drops and flubs seem too be at the most inopportune times  
Peter from NH (formerly CT) : 2/24/2021 12:28 pm : link
and he tends to drop them "up" where they are picked off. It is just shocking how many turnovers he was involved in last year. From my vantage point, most if not all were on him.

Copying Sy's reviews from those games to get the full perspective on what Engram does to help AND hurt the team on game day...

VS. CINC:
-Evan Engram continued his flashes that create hope just to have them brought back down after a huge mishap. On the first drive of the game and the first drive of the second half, he caught passes downfield that properly displayed both his size and speed. Those 2 catches combined for 97 yards. He finished with 129 catches on 4 yards, but he fumbled in the second quarter and it led to a CIN field goal that put them up by 3. Engram can be such a difference maker. There are not even a handful of tight ends who can make the plays he did in this game but the turnovers and drops are enough to kill his chances long term.


VS. WFT:
Evan Engram has gotten his fair share of roller coaster reviews over the past few years and we can only add to it at this point. In a week where it was confirmed multiple teams tried to trade for him last week, NYG decided to hold onto the talented playmaker. He led the team in targets with 10, catching 5 of them for 48 yards and a touchdown. There were multiple bumps in the road, however. Engram dropped 2 passes that were literally right in front of his face. One of them was just inches away from resulting in an interception. He also allowed a TFL and was flagged for offensive pass interference. Engram’s touchdown was a huge play and it was a high-skill level catch.
Can’t block for shit  
NNJ Tom : 2/24/2021 2:30 pm : link
Too many critical drops.

I’d take a cracked cooler and a half roll of tape for EE.










Oh wait, Probowler..give us 2 #1s.
