I totally agree. If our top guy is gone by our pick, and we get a call, trade and pickup another second and 3rd. We still have the OTHER 1st round pick, so heck, even if our guy is there, there could be a drop off in our draft board between 21 and 22. I'd def consider this.

please. we all know what's going to happen: he ends up with the Pats***. j/k....I think he ends up with the Bills.

I agree. I have Rosen, Mayfield, then Jackson. We get one of those three I'm pumped. I'd also trade TT and try to get one of the vet rentals out there (Keenum or Bradford) na, he wants to fall to the Bills. Think optimistically.

1. Josh Rosen 2. Baker Mayfield 3. Lamar Jackson 4. Sam Darnold 5. Luke Falk

I actually think this idea has some merit. It totally depends on them striking out in FA, but if they want a 1 year bridge QB TT could be ideal. Inexpensive, only 1 year left on contract. And he'd have some weapons with Gordon. But, if your Cleveland, do you pass up on Barkely (if he's there?). Likely not. So I think Barkely (RB-PSU) has to be off the board for this to happen. I hear ya, but is Barkley THAT much better than the RB you could get at 21? I don't know. If I really love a QB, I take him 1, and consider the Bills offer. Or, another thing could happen and somehow Barkely is still there at 4, then I take him. This is why the draft and pre-draft conversations are so much damn fun!!!

ha. watch it turn off other organizations, except the Browns. Who trade down to like 2, get another 1st, and draft him anyway. That's a good point. But, IMO, Andrew Luck (and to some extent Matt Ryan) are exceptions I think. Darnold, IMO, has more questions than those two coming into the draft. .

my issue as a GM would be, if he needs to control the environment that much, no way he can make it in the NFL. You don't control the defense. I want to see the guys in all situations. And Darnold looked awful and turnover prone at times last season. I think this kills his stock. Rosen, and (perhaps, Mayfield will pass him on the charts.

I'd like to see Cadet back, along with Lewis (great backup for Shady as skillset is the same), and a RB taken later in the draft. (Miami RB could be a good steal). what happened to the big bama back last year. he kind of disappeared. not sure if he was injured or what?

would like to see Johnson back, and a draft pick in the 2nd or so for depth.

if the Bills don' move up, it's because they (a) feel the price is too high for a QB class where there is no sure day 1 starter; and (2) feel that there is a QB they like at 21 (L. Jackson, L. Falk in Rd. 2; Rudolph, etc.)

I LOVE this dude's attitude. He loves the game of football more than most that play it. I really hope he comes back and dominates. Would be one of the most uplifting sports stories in quite a while, IMO. I don't think anyone knows that he is more at risk of paralysis by coming back than a regular player is. But I'm no doctor, and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night either. Agreed. You don't set high goals for yourself, esp. as an athlete, you will never achieve even "average" goals.

Thanks. More info like this is always appreciated. Glad to see that L. Jackson is a comparable passer, and that's with his "bad footwork" which can be improved.

same here. if we can't get a top 4 or 5 QB, take 2 D guys. Imagine how good our secondary and overall D would be with a viable front 7. I think we are talking top D in the league. That said, we then need a good FA QB, and Luke Falk in Rd. 2 or 3. Also for consideration, take 2 top D guys in Rd. 1, and snag L. Jackson by moving up in the 2nd if he falls, or whomever is the "next" QB on the Bills list. I def. think they are being lazy. I think Price will be a beast in the NFL, but we have Groy, so no need to go C/G in 1st. Take the guy from Iowa, or Alabama later in the draft.

STOP IT. we want him at 21! But i agree with you. He will confirm to teams that he is a "dancing bear" on the D-line. I think you are spot on. And I think Allen's arm talent will cause him to be picked higher than he should.

dion lewis. All Pitt backfield!

be great to have both for sure. I see either Davis or Gaines, with Johnson and Wright and a rookie as backups.

Thought: depending on cost, McCarron is your "rookie" QB; and sign a veteran. Use all your picks for the remaining holes.

I see no reason to trade-up. To me, there are a lot of QB's who could be "the best" in this class. It's too much of a gamble this year, IMO. L. Jackson or L. Falk could turn out to be the best QB from the draft, and should be there at 21. Again, a lot of teams passed on Watson, who looked like the draft's best QB last year.

well, he'd be a complete idiot not to "love NYC" when giving an interview given that the Giants and Jets have high picks! Show's me he's smart. But don't worry, he will LOVE Buffalo when he gets here!!

Fl. State has a FANTASTIC secondary. 1TD and no INT's is good. Clemson: 3td's and 1int, with 317 yards: not bad. that is a fantastic graph. Mayfield is my #1 guy. Rudolph and Allen scare me. Any chance of adding Luke Falk to that chart. I believe he has great accuracy, just not sure where those throws occur (short, deep, etc.). Interesting that Rosen and Jackson have the same "short and intermediate" percentage.

Defense: I'd like to see Nigel Bradham brought back. Anthony Chickillo from the Steelers (OLB) could be a nice, cheap addition. But he's a RFA. Beau Allen (NT) from Philly would be a nice, cheap-ish depth at DT. Julius Peppers would be an intriguing addition. Does not play a ton, but 11 sacks last year. Perhaps he can also teach Lawson some pass-rushing moves. Offense: Andrew Norwell, G, Panthers. This is my top offensive target. In fact, might be my top non-QB FA target. In terms of WR's, I like Allen Robinson, Willie Snead, and Brice Butler sounds very intriguing. Chris Hubbard, OT Steelers

at least. why not!

Totally agree. Frank will be a much better NFL head-coach than McDaniels. And, as a Bills fan, it's great to see Reich get a head coaching job. And it's also great that we keep Frazier at DC!!

If we get Cousins, who I'm not high on given his lack of production relative to his age and cost, I still want a QB in the 1st. Let that guy learn from Cousins, backup Cousins and/or compete with Peterman.

Good point re: Foles. I think whatever Vet we get the OC will have to focus on what the vet does and does not do well. None of the Vet QB's we get will be the long-term answer. Just have to find the best bridge for the rookie QB to learn from. And I totally agree on cost. No way am I paying above a 3rd for a vet QB, esp. when you can pick up a FA Vet (from Minny for ex).
