The Buccaneers receiver wants a new contract but might not get it before season starts.

ESPN's Dan Graziano predicts the Buccaneers may trade Evans instead of signing a long-term deal, to gather assets for a rebuild.

Teams struggled with wide receiver solutions during the offseason, and not all of them succeeded.

Demand will increase as the season progresses and injuries occur. The Buccaneers are rebuilding after Tom Brady's retirement and have a significant amount of dead cap money.

They aim to minimize the impact this year to focus on acquiring players next year.

Robinson said Bills can't afford Evans at current salary, need extension or contract restructuring.

Robinson suggested that Buffalo should put in the effort for another Super Bowl quest.

[{"selector":"#anim-a3c13de6-d4f8-4104-9c8e-cdfc4cae1d16","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-44f66d36-f57f-4345-9dc2-6c845da48b9a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":1100,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d52fc6d3-28a6-4db2-8852-bf2978b6f70f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-114.8265%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":1100,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Evans would strengthen the Bills' receiving duo with Diggs, creating a formidable combination.
