ESPN’s Adam Schefter says that Bills running back Marshawn Lynch is the player that he thinks will most likely be traded this offseason.
“No. 1, the Buffalo Bills running back, Marshawn Lynch,” Schefter replies. “They have a new coach, a new GM and any time there are new people in charge, they bring in their own players. Marshawn Lynch could be traded on or before the draft.”
A recent Buffalo News story claims Lynch wants out of Buffalo. A recent Olean Times Herald column says the Bills would like to move him. But Lynch has no leverage, and the Bills probably couldn’t get enough in return for him to make it worth their while from a personnel standpoint.
Schefter also named Brandon Marshall and Jason Campbell as two more players that will likely be dealt sometime this offseason.
This is just speculation on my part, but I would expect that the Chargers would be interested in Lynch, who played at Cal. San Diego has a huge void at running back and seeing as how Lynch is only 23, he could still wind up being a featured back. Maybe a change of scenery would be good for the running back and if he’s traded, maybe it will motivate him to stay out of trouble.
