Here is what I think you could do to help from it taking too long...in fact, this would result in the poll not taking any longer than before. Put a message out to all of the managers here right now that if any of them have interest in making a trade up with the Bills for any player they need to submit that BEFORE the Bills are on the clock to the trade committee (Myself and Virgil). So they can start looking and sending them into to me and Virgil now. They are free to put any stipulations on it as in "We offer picks X and Y for Bills pick 28, but ONLY if player X is there (or multiple players if there is more than 1 they would trade up for)". If the trade meets the requirements of an approvable trade, we will mark it as an tentatively approved as an option to include in a poll if said players are on the board at 28. Then when we get to 28, you already have ALL of your trade down offers and we will know which ones are alive and which ones are dead because X player(s) were not there. Once the Bills are on the clock, the trades are locked and there is no pulling out of the deal by the other GM if the trade met all the criteria. If any trades are alive, you immediately put the TSW poll up with option to select whatever players are in play for us at 28 and include all the trade down offers still alive, if any, as well in the poll. So the poll is the same poll it always is and will not take any additional time. Who we would take in the trade down is not part of the vote as the rest of the draft still needs to play out until what would be our pick, so no need to include who we might take, people can guess on that themselves when weighing the option to trade back vs who we could take at 28.

Interesting and detailed Bills Draft visits chart
Alphadawg7 replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Honestly, if we take Worthy I guarantee the new KO rules helped put them over the top as that absolutely boosts his value and why I have warmed up some to him where I previously had him around 8th or 9th on my WR board just over the size concerns I brought up above. And if we do take him, I have a feeling Beane may make a move to go get someone like Tez Walker in the third by trading back up there with some of our extra picks. -
Well played and your screen name makes it better lmao

Interesting and detailed Bills Draft visits chart
Alphadawg7 replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Xavier Worthy posted on Instagram yesterday that he was in Buffalo for what appears a pre-draft visit. Love his speed, but I am concerned about his durability with that slender frame and also concerned how effective he would be in bad weather when speed is negated and play gets a lot more physical. So not sure how much sense he makes as a WR1 for Buffalo, but I can see why they would have him in for a visit as that speed is nuts. Seen a lot of Tyreek Hill talk with Worthy, but they really are not at all similar outside straight line speed. Hill is a dawg down field who is physical despite being short, but is very strong. Worthy is very slender, and I am concerned about if he will have the strength to beat press coverage or step up when the weather and elements negate the speed factor late in the season and playoffs in Buffalo. But he is intriguing with that 4.2 speed. -
Trade stands, but since neither @Virgil or myself were notified, a stiff penalty has been enacted. $100 needs to be sent via Venmo to myself by the owners, and then the participating GM's must take @Virgil to Tiffany's Cabaret Gentleman's Club next Wednseday for Lumpy Hump Day daytime happy hour and provide no less than 3 flap dances and 3 rounds of Fireball double shots. Just no, if @Virgil doesn't leave there itchy, sticky, or smelling bad, you didn't do enough and further sanctions may be applied.

NFL Opens 3rd Helmet Design to All Teams
Alphadawg7 replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
Im all for a red version, but I also wouldn't mind seeing some sick new design on it to make it more than just bringing an old one back. I have seen quite a few bad a** ones over the years people have mocked up. Do Zomething Different - yup...that was a Zima reference lol -
Not true, he absolutely has value. You all said nobody would trade for Tyrod and we got the first pick in the 3rd for him. Personally, I think Elam still has value to the team and could come in a compete to start again with him being healthy, Tre being gone, and Benford coming off injury. But if we did trade him, he would absolutely have value especially to a team who plays a style of defense that better fits his skill set. He was a first round pick on a team that plays a different style than his strengths were, that won’t kill his value.

This doesn’t feel accurate. For example, there is no Ladd McConkey who has publicly stated he’s met with the Bills now multiple times, at least 3 which would put him ahead of several players on this list. -
You realize “April Fools” isn’t a month long thing right?

RIP? F this guy. Rest in paying for your crimes.

That is some Ricky Williams trade grossness ha. I would buy a billboard to fire Beane if he traded that much for a WR...I would be furious if he traded that much to get a QB even unless it was like the greatest QB prospect the world has ever seen.

Facts are simple...Diggs is NOT a me first WR Diva who is upset about stats. He is a highly driven competitor who is obsessed with winning a Super Bowl before his time is done. He had his best chances over the past 4 years of his career here and the Bills just kept coming up short. He wears this emotion for winning on his sleeve and his biggest character flaw is caring too much about winning, if you can call that a flaw. Bottom line, the past 2 seasons waned Diggs faith and confidence that this team was capable of getting over the hump. In fact, it was clear to anyone paying attention the Bills would have to face a mini rebuild/retool this year for cap reasons and have a hefty amount of roster turnover and could initially take a step back before it could try and step back into the championship window. Diggs, approaching 31, knows his time to help a team win a title is closing. He saw a team like the Texans as an ascending team that has a cheap rookie QB contract and could load up elsewhere to try and win in the short term. For him, that is a more attractive situation. For the Bills...they are able to shed a big contract of player about to be 31 and go into maybe the best WR draft in history to find a new WR1 to anchor on a rookie deal for the next 4 to 5 years of Allens prime. More importantly, they shed the "cloud" that followed Diggs, his teammates, the staff, etc around here cast by the media always hounding everyone in every interview about Diggs state of happiness, him and Josh relationship, etc all trying to get a click bait story. Furthermore, Josh and Brady no longer have that back of the mind pressure to get Diggs so many targets either. The focus can be on young talent and spreading the ball around and also getting Cook his touches. This should be seen as a win win by both Diggs and the Bills. Had the Bills waited another year, best they would have gotten is a 4th round pick too. This was a sell high move by the Bills and I think this team will be a better team moving forward offensively and have more fun again. Just like I think Diggs will feel refreshed and fired up at a new opportunity to go get a ring.

So no matter what, this draft was going QB picks 1-3 then MHJ, Nabers, Odunze for picks 4-6. Interesting

Jax Josh Allen Gets $141.25M & $76.5M GTD
Alphadawg7 replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
In. -
Curious...lets say I don't swap 4th and 6th picks with you...and I instead take MHJ at 4 just like you did. So that means Chargers still go Nabers as the board is still the same for them. What would you have done at 6 in that case? Would you have taken Odunze at 6...McCarthy...or another position all together?
-
Raiders were only luke warm interested, they find Uncle Rico fun and they think Aidan has some potential. What they would be willing to give up didn't match what we would have liked to have seen in order to not take someone as talented as Odunze in this spot. We had no contact with the Saints, and when they didn't respond to our bat signal of hitting us on the beeper with the code: 80085, we knew they weren't gonna bite because no one in NO passes up seeing or showing their 80085. Now Rome is being built in the desert in AZ!

With the 6th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Arizona Cardinals select: Rome Odunze, WR, Washington CLICK HERE FOR HIGHLIGHTS As a GM I have developed a crush on Odunze who is a total package WR and has the best ball skills in the draft. The last time we saw a WR this complete come out, we were lucky enough to draft him in Larry Fitzgerald, and Odunze brings that and more speed. We knew trading back to 6 would guarantee us one of the big 3 at WR, and we are more than thrilled to be adding him to our roster while also picking up additional picks in the 3rd and 4th rounds of this draft to help build the team up around our QB Murray and our new top weapon in Odunze. Other players we considered here were Dallas Turner, EDGE and Joe Alt, OT but ultimately we just couldn't pass on the elite traits Odunze brings to our team. @qwksilver and the Tennessee Titans are now on the clock.

No trade here...Im just weighing options right now and kind of playing some draft scenarios out to see what direction I want to go here. I will be keeping this pick, would have only moved it if Vikings wanted it, and I already know Kirby has no interest in McCarthy even at 11 let alone on a move up HA. So pick will be in shortly...
-
I mean there is a good chance in the real draft they trade down with the Vikings and don't pick again until 11 where there is no assurances either of the big 3 WR's are on the board. But they would also have 3 first round picks at min at that point and could take say Odunze or Thomas...or go and get a stud CB or DL prospect, 2 other biggest needs and then go get Thomas after and still have pick 27 to add yet another player. This is why I have found it puzzling a lot of people have AZ locked in on MHJ at 4 because moving back does a lot more for their team who isn't a WR away from competing and they still get an elite WR prospect in each of the likely trade back scenarios.
-
The Cardinals are not a MHJ away from contending as the roster is a bottom tier roster, they can safely make this trade back and still get an elite WR prospect, and TBH, they don't even need to go WR at this pick, they have 2 first round picks and now 2 3rds, and 2 4ths later too for them to double down on a WR. And, if they made this trade and Giants didn't go QB and went MHJ, they is nothing saying they still wouldn't trade back with say Vikings and get another first (giving them 3 total) if Chargers take Nabers/Odunze. Cardinals could still take someone like Thomas and have 2 more first rounders to go with their 3rd and 4th round picks they just stacked. But I know Kirby hates McCarthy, so Vikings won't be trading up in this draft with Chargers or AZ lol. In the real draft though, both Chargers and AZ picks would be prime spots for Vikings to go get a QB (unless they also don't like McCarthy lol).
-
I never thought to ask you who you were gonna take at 4, just assumed it was McCarthy. So this one was a fun surprise. I do think that the two most likely teams to make a trade with the Cardinals are the Giants and Vikings come the real draft. But I would assume the Giants would do it to get a QB, but maybe you are on to something, they are in need of playmakers in the worst way.

OFFICIAL TRADE: Cardinals and Giants are swapping picks and @BuffaloBillyG and the New York Giants are now on the clock. Details of the trade below. Cardinals send: #4, #138, #162 (1863.6 value points) Giants send: #6, #70, and #107 (1920 value points)

TRADE ALERT: Arizona Cardinals have submitted a trade for approval. Twitter is swirling with Rumors that it is the Bills and includes Josh Allen and multiple first round picks headed to AZ. Rumors started flying that someone associated with the Bills named @KDIGGZhas been pushing for this after tiring of Josh Allens lack of offseason workouts. Its all rumors right now, but thats what people thought about Diggs and look what happened...stay tuned to find out the mystery team.
-
You do know this is maybe the best WR draft in NFL history right and there isn't a place anywhere in the first round where a team can't get a true high quality WR1 prospect. So the Cardinals are currently weighing all options on a team utterly devoid of talent
