HappyDays Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 Anyone near the top need a LT? Maybe we can package both 1sts, our 3rd, and Cordy Glenn to move up. Or next year's 2nd. We have a lot of options if we really want to do this.

Pony up and get the best. I am not into "making the playoffs", I want rings. So giving a ton of draft picks up for a rookie that won't probably be much better than Cousins is the way to go? There are 2 problems facing the Bills. The current draft class doesn't have a can't miss QB and the Bills have a lot of holes. QB, RB, OL, DL, LB, WR Whatever they decide to do they just better be going after the QB that fits their system and it better be a good one. Edited December 7, 2017 by Yav

There isn't a top quality QB in this draft to compare anyone coming out of college to Jim Kelly is crazy talk. I just think the Bills can fill so much with this draft and get a QB in to win games right now, and then when there is a stronger QB coming out they can go all in to get him.

I understand you want to make the playoffs, but why settle for a "playoff appearance" when you get knocked out in round one. Why not take a chance on Super Bowls instead, isn't that the end game. Cousins played in "ONE" playoff game and LOST. I want rings not a token playoff game. Don't you??

I get that, but sending away picks to get a QB that more than likely isn't going to be a franchise guy doesn't guarantee you playoffs let alone a SB. The Bills need OL, WR, LB, DL and RB help. How are they going to get that? Giving up draft picks to get a QB will set them back, that QB isn't going to instantly get you to the playoffs and is at risk of being injured if they don't fix the other problems. I would like to see the Bills make the SB but making the playoffs has to happen for them to make the SB so they go hand in hand. I just want a big, tall, strong, smart & accurate QB. At this point I don't even care how it happens. I'm tired of it all.
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 7, 2017 Posted December 7, 2017 I'd go the Eagles route here. Sign the best guy you can in Free agency... and still trade for your QB. Decent chance someone comes calling for a solid QB if your rookie can take the job from him. They traded all those picks for Wentz - got one of the picks back in the bradford trade. I don't think we'd necessarily get similar total compensation for it, but we'd probably recoup something if we felt the need to move on.

Lowell Lotulelei ,DT UTah. 3. Isaiah Wynn G, Georgia 4. Andrew Brown DL, Virginia 5. Allen Lazard WR, Iowa St 6. Ike Boettger OT. Iowa Wide recievers and running backs you can find during preseason cuts.

The bottom line everyone is we just don't know. I like Rudolph but I love Darnold. I've seen every snap Rosen & Darnold have made. Darnold is the prize and yes he will be expensive. Rosen will not have the NFL success as Sam. And there's still a chance Darnold stays. It's still too early to speculate. A lot will happen between now and Feb 1st.

Famous last words as he selected right before your pick. You don't wait for a franchise QB to come to you, you go get him.

I would trade three 1st rounders, a 2nd, plus a 4th/5th for Darnold...we are going to have to make it worth it for Cleveland to give up that pick... Edited December 8, 2017 by JaCrispy

DefenseWins Posted December 8, 2017 Posted December 8, 2017 These next two weeks are gonna be very interesting... One would think that this is the most likely W remaining on the Bills schedule... I could handle them blowing this game at home and seeing the Raiders and Chargers kick KC's butt these next two weeks...

That’s possibly three QB’s right there. Although I believe the Broncos will go after Cousins. Just seems like an Elway thing to do and as their defense ages, they want to win now, so they could be more likely to go after a veteran QB.
