If we make the trade up, Rosen or Mayfield is who I'm hoping for. Sometimes I like Darnold and other times I'm unconvinced. Just can't quite get a read on him.
Luckily I have a soft spot for the Seahawks (mainly because seattle is a wonderful city, but also acquainted with Sherman). I'm probably the only one outside that fan base who feels that way though lol.
It's always a gamble with QBs, honestly. The OP has the same top 3 qbs I do, and if we have the opportunity to grab one of them, I'd support a move up. I don't like giving up picks but with all that we have this is the year to do it.
This is pretty much how I feel, although it's interesting...we have a tendency to think we can get players for less than we actually can. Fans of other teams give way different answers to what Smith will trade for compared to Bills fans I've talked to.
I am generally of the opinion that bringing Alex Smith on board and drafting a QB high would be a smart move. I think Alex Smith is a good quarterback and would have us in the playoffs until a young QB is ready to go.
I was talking with my buddy, and he thinks Smith will be traded for a 1st. That seems like a heck of a price to pay, but I think he might be in more demand than we think. I originally thought (probably too optimistically) that I'd give up a 3rd. I think I could talk myself into a 2nd for him if that's what it took.
1) What do you guys think he will be traded for? 2) Are you willing to make that deal?
He doesn't really pass my eye test, but honestly qb's are a crap shoot.
He's one of the few QBs in this draft that I will be completely uninspired by. If we draft him I hope to hell I'm wrong.
He seemingly has the right attributes, I like the apparent attention to detail. His previous stints are uninspiring but a long time ago.
To me the biggest reason for hope is it really seems like we had a plan and went and got the guy we wanted.
