Speaking of cost control contracts, if Buffalo hits on a few picks at WR over the next year or two, old and expensive veterans like Diggs become expendable.

This is where I’m at, but trust me, you’ll probably get several dislikes for saying so, but honestly, like you said, Gesicki could potentially get 60-70 catches in this offense and we would have nearly a 100% guarantee that Josh would have a reliable guy in the slot. He fills that void that was left by Cole Beasley in his prime and wouldn’t be terribly expensive.

At least 1 more weapon, probably 2.

Ed Oliver for Hopkins straight up! 🤣

I’d rather Buffalo put that money on a #1 WR opposite of Diggs. And to the folks saying that we shouldn’t have signed Von instead of Tremaine, you’re wrong. Von pushes the needle forward more than Tremaine ever could.

Mike Pettine. Assistant HC/DC.

He talked badly about his last employer, he talked badly about his current employer, why would his next employer be any different?

If he’s there in the 6th, absolutely.

Yeah, dude, Avila and Dawand Jones would be nuts. Talk about adding some serious beef to that OL. Charbonnet will be a very good bell cow RB in the NFL though, he’s a very nice prospect.

Oh, ok, so you’re the jerk and I’m nuts then? With all due respect I’ve only gone nuts one time, I just decided to stay. 😆

What are you nuts? Paris Johnson? That guy is a top 15 pick at the latest, we’re talking about a dominant future LT here. Maybe and I mean maybe we could end up with Broderick Jones, but Paris Johnson? No way.

I appreciate a good Cinderella story from time to time, the fact that this man went from being a total draft bust to a successful QB is great to see. God bless him!

I don’t think I could pass on Bijan at 27 either, I think he’s probably the best case scenario for Buffalo, but if he’s gone and we trade down and ended up with Zach Charbonnet and a nasty lineman like Steve Avila or Dawand Jones, I don’t think I could complain either.

I could live with that.

Yup. Give me a 1st for him and sayonara. Plenty of good WRs in this draft. Open up some cap space at the same time.

Somebody mentioned Steve Avila and I think if Buffalo could get him in a trade down you could do no wrong. Maybe slot him in at RG and eventually have him take over at C, that would be nice. I suppose I wouldn’t mind Zach Charbonnett also, but I would prefer Avila or Dawand Jones.

Will Beane be active at the start of FA? Or will he wait 3-4 weeks for leftovers?

I don’t know, let’s split the baby down the middle and let’s say it’s a mid 2nd and a mid 3rd round pick and Buffalo still has their 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th round picks on top of it. I’m sorry that I was a bit too vague in the OP, I didn’t want to superimpose my thoughts on everyone else, I genuinely wanted to hear everyone else’s opinion on who they would take. We have a thread on Buffalo staying put at 27 and Buffalo drafting a defensive player at 27 and Buffalo drafting an offensive player at 27, I thought we needed a Trade Down Thread as well.

I know everybody loves Bijan Robinson, but what if he was gone and there were no good OL or WRs available and somebody offered Buffalo a 2nd + a 3rd for pick #27, who would you take?

There’s no better way to put it.

No. Trade down at that point.

Random names in no particular order: Taylor Lewan, LT (Put him at RT?) Isaac Seumalo, RG (Our big FA signing?) Mike Gesicki, TE (Big target for Josh with upside?) Rashaan Evans, LB (Cheap LB with upside on the sly?) Leighton Vander Esch, LB (Another cheap LB, smart and instinctive- don’t give me the “he don’t fit our scheme” BS)

What are you in third grade? Sarcasm is the lowest form of comedy.

I would love to see more disguised blitzes combined with fake blitzes and dropping extra players into coverage. Anything to break up the boring monotony that we’ve seen over the last 3-4 years. We have two great corners in TreDavious and Kaiir, we can afford to play man and to mix things up every here and there.
