The Facts: A source close to LeSean McCoy to ESPN's Josina Anderson on how RB feels about news of an agreement to trade McCoy to Buffalo: "He's a Pennsylvania kid. He's never played football outside of Pennsylvania-high school, college, pro. So of course he's not happy. Sounds like it's pretty final to me unless LeSean is refusing to go to Buffalo."
Diehards Line:
The source on how McCoy is feeling at the moment: Honestly, he's frustrated...It's alright. It's the league. I told him that. I guess he just never experienced that, but he was like 'why me.'" The source said he thinks McCoy is "not going to make it easy, that's for sure." But Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the final piece of McCoy's trade to Buffalo will be a revised contract for McCoy. He currently has no guaranteed money in 2016, which could change. A source familiar with the Bills thinking told Rapoport the team will "take very good care of him. ..." That will likely help. McCoy was already due close to $25 million over the next three seasons. Buffalo would not trade a great young defensive building block like Kiko Alonso unless they believe McCoy is going to be part of the team for the rest of his contract. Giving McCoy more money seems unnecessary considering the relative value of running backs around the league, but perhaps guaranteeing him some of his contract will make the jarring trade go down smoothly. ...
