If we traded Clements for a top 15 pick

[RVJ]

I left out QBs and RBs. Heres Kipers board to help out. And lets say we signed Ty Law.

I agree...but lets say he was replaced with Ty Law.

By adding Clements to the equation I think you muddy up the question. If yoyu were asking who is the best pick for the Bills from among these 15 that is one question, but asking which of these players is worth trading Nate Clements for is another.

 

None of these players who at best have great potential (meaning they haven't done anything real yet) is worth a NFL vet who made it into the Pro Bowl at his position. I would not trade Clements for any of them.

 

 

Even if you have given up on this season for the Bills and are willing to give up vet production for rookie potential, none of these players strike me as such a deadlock certainty to reach his potential that it justifies trading Clements for them.

 

So i would ask what is it that you really are asking before answering this question. If you are asking which of these players is the best athlete, that is a different question than asking which is worth Clements. In fact, as need is a more important factor to me than simply doing what TD says he does and pick the best player available, I am of the mind that if you feel you are close and a lesser player fills your needs at a position better than picking a better overall player at a position which is stocked, I'd happily pick a less talented player that filled my team's need than pick a more talented player who is going to mean somebody good is going to have to ride the pines for me.

well if we signed Law and then traded Nate for a top 15 pick

 

I would then trade that pick with a team lower and get their 1st and

3rd picks...

 

That is assuming that there is no one on the board that could step

in and start

I think I would try to trade down also...Get as many quality picks as I could.

I would want all the extra picks I recieved to be for next years draft.
