napmaster Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) Worse record picks first. KC had a worse record (10-6) than Carolina or NO (both 11-5), so SOS won't come into play.. You want the Falcons because the Bills have the Rams 2nd round pick. KC's pick is 22nd from what I've seen. Loser of Jacksonville/Buffalo will pick 21st. Edited January 7, 2018 by napmaster
KW95 - JA17 Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 pretty terrible IMO do be drafting in the 20's

Bills will either be 21st or have a later pick As it stands now 21-24 are the wild card playoff losers sorted by record, strength of schedule, then a coin flip. KC is one loser NO/CAR loser has 111 wins ATL has 10 wins, Rams 11. Buffalo has 9, jacksonville 10 It looks like jacksonville has a weaker SoS than KC and KC is less than AztL. If Buffali loses....they draft 21, KC 22. If buffalo wins, then JAX drafts 21, KC 22, and BUF no lower than 25. Tennessee has a weaker SoS than buffali so the fact they are seed 5 over buffali seed 6, they would get to draft ahead of buffalo.

Anywho, beggars can't be choosers, we made the Playoffs.
flomoe Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 So, is it possible that the Bills have back to back picks in both rounds 1 and 2 depending how things play out? i hope not but it’s something you don’t see often.

No. They have the Chiefs 1st Rounder and the Rams 2nd Rounder.

I’m curious since it’s possible the Bills could be picking back to back in round 1 from the Chiefs pick, if the Rams lose, would they pick after the Bills and could the Bills have their pick and Rams pick in the 2nd back to back? i would rather have the Bills pick 32nd but it would be an anomaly to pick back to back in 2 straight rounds.

Gotcha. Not sure how the New Orleans/Carolina loser would affect that scenario.
Peter Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 I have to admit that I am disappointed. It is a shame the Chiefs won their division. But for the fact that White looks to be good (let's hope his play continues), the trade is turning out to be ok - certainly not great.

Wait we get defensive rookie of the year and another mid to late round 1st round pick and it’s not good or great? It’s not a franchise changer yet but it’s certainly better than ok 2
Estro Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 I think Mahomes is going to be a star. I don't think we did bad in the trade, but given the difficulty of finding a star QB I'd much rather have Mahomes. He made a throw last week, that made my jaw literally drop. The arm strength and accuracy displayed on the play was something I don't think any other QB in the league could pull off. The throw is at 4:39. Check it out
die hard bills fan Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 This is too confusing. Figure it out in the morning.
BuffaloBillsGospel Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 It doesn't matter, we will be giving our two 1st rounders, a 2nd rounder this year and our 1st next year to the NYG and were selecting QB Josh Rosen, he's who I had for us all along and that's who I believe we'll be going after, I hope so anyways.
Paulus Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 7 hours ago, BillsVet said: Not literally. Hard to believe he wasn't "aware" of what was going on in Buffalo. This stuff annoys the heck out of me. People are going to treat that draft like they treated the Whaley/Nix transition draft. They will apportion the blame to whoever is convenient at the time. Look, this was a McDermott draft. Whaley, like Nix did, had his wings clipped before the draft.

I think the Bills finally have good college talent evaluators in the building.
