PrintAbout 8 months ago, we Rams fans were dealing with Steven Jackson's holdout, and the stress that put us under. While it ended up being resolved in our favor, a similar drama was playing out in Buffalo. LT Jason Peters was also in the midst of a preseason hold out, a situation we discussed a couple times (here's an example) only so much as to link Jackson's and Peter's holdout through agent Eugene Parker who they shared (and still do, to my knowledge).
While Jackson and the Rams have moved well past the bad feelings engendered by the holdout, Peters and Buffalo could never get back to even footing, and today the Bills agreed to trade him to the Eagles (Y!, ESPN).
In return for Peters, the Bills get the 28th pick in the 1st round, the 21st pick in the fourth round (121st overall), and an undisclosed pick in the 2010 draft.
Given Peters' talent (two Pro Bowls at just 27 years of age), did Buffalo get a fair deal?

There seems to be some confusion as to if a 2010 pick was even included.
