they haven’t heard anything about it because Beane is Stealth and moves in the shadows
Or he doesn’t want to do it .. or the other teams don’t want to trade down that far or they just prefer to take Nabors or Odunze themselves …Not as much fun to dream otherwise though … we’ll know in 11 days of dreams come true

Is it, though?
He says that they haven't heard anything about it...but basically if could possibly maybe sorta happen. But nothing has been said.
He sounds like someone posting here tbh😂😂
he is suggesting that something is possible … like no kidding Sherlock 😂-

Sutton is 29. Stefon Diggs is 30 and we all saw the dropoff in production last year. Bringing in mid-range WRs at the end of their productive careers for a lot of money is not how to keep the Bills moving ahead.
$13m John …. Is that a lot in 2024?Gabe Davis just signed for that

Smaller size. He’ll be the # 2 DT off the board just because Murphy is bigger
Johnny started the off season as a solid mid teens Round 1 pick.. now he is the end of Round 1 guy that the “experts” try to squeeze in when they do Round 1 only mocks …The Kiper Belt with Field of Dreams Yates have him at 49 on their latest … but they have a bet each way and says they expect a team to still take him in Round 1… lols all round there … sometimes they pick with what they expect teams to do … and others it’s their opinions …

The best defensive player in the draft.
Seems to be falling in some mocks… yeah I know … mocks right … but starting to wonder if there is something negative out there ? -

yes, for BTJ.
I’ll say it again…if Seattle wants to go rebuild new regime…
We could pull off a huge trade.
28, 128, 2025 1st, 2nd, 2nd
for 16 & DK Metcalf
Essentially breaks down:
28, 128, 2025 2nd for 16 (BTJ)
2025 1st, 2nd for DK Metcalf (extended)
(I think this is what it would take for them to move him and IMO it’s fair)
yes, you don’t have a 1st or 2nd next year
but you just added 2 huge Beasts on the outside who can also FLY & you kept pick 60 for whatever
DK Metcalf
Brian Thomas Jr
Samuel (line up anywhere)
Shakir (slot)
+ Kincaid
We’re set for years.
IMO Beane needs to be thinking along these lines. The position is begging for a massive move
Throw in 60 and keep 128 and the Seahawks may even consider this …Not for me personally

When was the last time in 40 years that the Bills got a quality player for a 3rd or a 4th rd draft choice. It’s a pipe dream. The only reason the Texans got Diggs for a 2nd was because we couldn’t look at him anymore no less pay him.
Hey ..: if they can’t get him for a fourth - don’t do itIf he wants more money - don’t do it
But the Broncos might want to realise that they are trying to trade an above average, not great 28 yr old WR on the eve of one of the deepest WR drafts of all
time..

Who are the game changing 2nd rounders we’ve trotted out there. Any Sutton’s in the bunch. These teams without quality QBs need receiving. You have to give to get. The Redskins in the 70s with George Allen used all their draft choices to get quality vets. They got to SBs and were in the NFC championships with zero draft contributions.
2nd? I’m proposing to spend no more than a 4th which should get it done ..Normally Beane spends his 4ths moving up 2 spots when he gets anxious waiting for his turn

He can also stay in Denver and earn a new deal.He’s not happy playing under his current deal. We don’t need that.
Ok … rot in Denver then .. good luck getting a new deal in two years time with what ever QB ends up throwing to youIts not like he is currently underpaid for his production

One that is looking for an expensive, new deal.As I said, hard pass.
He can come here and earn a new deal…in the meantime play out the final two years on the old deal
25 minutes ago, Eastport bills said:Sutton is a younger Diggs at this point. He’s a solid # 2 and in our offense could be better with Josh. If Beane could pull him in for a 2nd next year it would be massive.
2nd? No way …4th would get it done

I have insight from a lot of people since I used to work in the industry in college football. I know scouts for the Jets, Texans, Bears. This doesn’t mean they are going to tell me about what they’re going to do but if I ask about a certain prospect they’ll share. I did this a couple of years ago when Melifonwu was coming out of Syracuse and people were projecting the Bills to take him in round 1. I didn’t see it but I asked around and the opinion I got was no shot he’s going in round 2 or 3. So it justified my evaluation. I watched tape on HS prospects and cut them up so our coaching staff could evaluate them.
I have certain insights at schools such as Buffalo, Kansas, South Dakota State, Northern Illinois, Florida State(just because I’m a fan and watch them all the time).
Does this mean I know everything, No, but I do have the resources to ask if I really need to about certain players.
Ok …interesting ….that could be helpful for getting some info on some players at those schools …Do you have any knowledge about Garret Greenfield from South Dakota State?
Possible mid Day 3 pick for the Bills maybe?

I don't know how the Bills see him, I'm just saying what my strategy would be. I see a lot of Bills fans and content creators saying we have to come away with an edge rusher by the end of the 2nd round because it's a clear weakness on the team. But the draft class is what it is. People talk themselves into a Marshawn Kneeland because there just aren't many options.
I think a lot of people have the concept of a deep or not deep class backwards. People say WRs are deep, edge rushers aren't, therefore we should take an edge rusher early and wait on WR. That's the wrong mindset. A deep WR class means that at any one of our picks there is likely to be a WR who matches the value of the pick, and the exact inverse for edge rushers. Choosing to take an edge rusher early in this draft means you're probably passing on a better talent just to fill a perceived need. I would rather skip the position entirely than make that mistake and regret it later, like when we stupidly traded up for Cody Ford instead of DK Metcalf.
Well… I have got a different strategy as I have outlined already in the thread ..I don’t think we are as far apart as you might think… I want 2 WR and a DE in the top 60-70 … I don’t see taking a DE in the third as a large as an investment as you do obviously…
It’s probably a moot point anyway as I see Kneeland being talked up now by the likes of Kiper and Brugler who have got him going in the Top 50 … too rich for my blood

The way I see it is everyone knows it's a weak EDGE class. So I'm just accepting this year our EDGE group will not be a strength of the team. And that's fine. The way to solve that problem isn't by reaching for mediocre talents in the top 75 out of desperation. We solve that problem by trying to build an offense that can simply outpace everybody. We hope that Rousseau takes a big step and Von Miller looks even 50% of what he did in 2022. I would rather bet on that and invest in the offensive weapons than reach for say Marshawn Kneeland at #60 because of a perceived drop off after him. Go all in on the positions that are strong in the draft (namely WR and OL) and accept that we won't be dominant at every single position group this season.
The Bills have had him in for a Top 30 visit so they must have some interest in him … so are you saying they view him as a Day 3 option?
I don’t see him lasting that long …and I am suggesting picking Kneeland with their third pick in the third round … which will require some moving around the board considering that pick doesn’t exist yet …whether this is considered a reach or not is opinion at this stage … we will see how the draft and the player subsequently turns out …Hoping that Miller improves concerns me as a strategy …he is 35 and looked terrible last year … he is not even close to being 50 percent of his pre injury level ,,,.but again as I have mentioned … I’m sure they have better information on his progress
If there is any doubt about Miller ,,, they need a better strategy then picking a leftover on Day 3.. -

I particularly like this one
It might bring down the regime if Josh starts complaining to Pegs about McD and Beane wasting his prime years .. -

Man I'm shocked by how many people see the 49ers extending Purdy as a foregone conclusion. I thought he was by far their biggest weakness in the Super Bowl. He couldn't win one with an elite LT and like 4 elite weapons. What else can they possibly give him to get them over the hump? It would be a monumental mistake to give him a big extension IMO.
Well.. when they tried to pick one giving up multiple firsts it was one of the biggest disasters we have seen in 20 years ..Maybe they should be sticking with what they have based on that effort

If they’re ok to move off 60 to move up, they should take the bigger swing and include 28,60 and next years 1st and try to get Rome.
If they truly believe BTJR is a difference maker then ok. This is some big boy decision making on Bean’s plate this offseason, say what you want about Bean but he’s not gonna go down scared and timid.
It’s a two way street … teams don’t necessarily want to move from the Top 10 to 28… or they want more than Beane is prepared to give up-

Your moving up 8 spots in the first and getting back a 3rd.
I’ve constantly said however Beane has it ranked if there is a large gap in their player rankings at WR such as Thomas than a big gap or whoever their number 5 guy is and 6th guy than make the move.
If they have 4-10 ranked somewhat similarly than by all means pick at 28 or move down
yes .. I can do the maths … Im not saying they aren’t getting value for the move .I don’t think either of us are going to know Beane plans or how they value these guys… I can only offer my opinions and moving up for Thomas expending more draft capital than a fourth is not my preferred option …after comparing him to the 5th and 6th guys who are likely available at the original pick

Wasn't a coincidence that Buffalo drafted Epenesa and Rousseau. They covet long arms in that position and have a history of drafting for that trait. Wouldn't be surprised at all if Kneeland ends up being a pick.
I think it’s a real possibility that Kneeland could be on their list.. could see him maybe lasting to early/mid third … so would be great if he was the third pick and not the second at that point in the draft -

From a trade chart perspective it’s actually a slight win for the Bills.
I’m just spitballing as I think they would want Brian Thomas but is he there at 20? I mean small chance. The Dolphins have spent a lot of time with Xavier Worthy so could it be Buffalo trying to move ahead of them for Worthy?
I actually don’t mind giving up 60 because it’s a very dead spot for the Bills when it comes to position of need. Sure you could say Safety but the Bills might be getting just as good a safety in the 3rd/4th as in the 2nd. My grading of safeties isn’t that far apart.
I fully expect DL to be washed by the time 60 roles around and they might be able to get an offensive tackle but goal # 1 is to get a big play WR in this draft.
I agree that 60 isn’t the best spot this year … but I don’t see how trading down helps … they should be looking at trading up and getting another top prospect in this draft …In relation to the first pick …If Brian Thomas costs more than a fourth to move up for ( which means 2-3 spots ) than move on to the next guy …

I prefer to think of him as a “better Davis”…. I could see some upside in his game the next two years playing with JA …
edit…. I see you just said the same thing in the post before 😂👍
