I like Josh Allen. I like him, when he’s “good Josh”. Unfortunately, I’ve seen a bit much of “bad Josh”, and it concerns me. This could be a make or break decision for this regime.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 I am not a fan of giving anything away to get Mayfield. If he is there when the Bills pick and they like him, great. I don’t know the young man and will admit I watched him closely in just the Rose Bowl. I saw a QB who has talent but when the UGA defense switched fronts and got him uneasy he didn’t play great at all. Mayfield will need to adjust to the professional game. The just wing it style doesn’t work for long in the NFL.
KingRex Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Nope. I am interested in winning next year. None of the rookie QBs are capable of carrying a team deep into the playoffs (or probably into the playoffs at all). In general, in order for a rookie QB to lead a team deep into the playoffs, he needs a TEAM around him. This was the model Big Ben played a key role in bringing an SB win to Pitt. We should use our 21st and 22nd and our 2- 2nd rounders to build a team capable of going deep in the playoffs even with a journeyman vet at QB which we should be able to sign from FA. Trading away our 1st rounders (+) to get an allegedly franchise rookie would likely be at most a sugar rush some less-informed fans will get all foamy about, but my sense is Beane/McD will be smart enough to build the team the right way for the long haul. Tyrod was a great bridge who proved capable of leading this team to the playoffs, but it is very unlikely he can lead the tteam deep into the playoffs. Time to get a new bridge capable of leading/managing this team to the next step. If we cannot develop Peterman or a later round pick into being our franchise QB, then consider trading up to get a franchise QB in 2019 to be the part to put this team over the top like Big Ben did for Pitts. The panic and poor training that saw McD potentially ruin Peterman's development rushing him to start in his 5 INT game gives a pretty clear indicator this team is not yet up to training a young QB. Trading up for a QB is likely a waste for this team.

JohnBonhamRocks Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 I'm good for moving up for Mayfield at #3-5, so, yeah, do it at #12. No to Allen. Maybe even at #21 and #22.
Batman1876 Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 One guy is tall, inaccurate, inconsistent and has awful footwork. The other is crazy accurate, makes quick reads and leads his team. I’d like one of them.

TigerJ Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 I probably would do it, but I'm undecided about which one is preferable.
Paul Costa Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 What would we have to give up? #21 And next year’s first? No thank you if that’s the case!!??
simool Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 No. Doing so you lose one potential starter. Mayfield is no lock to be quality NFL starter, cocky and short is no way to go through life. Allen is all potential. If either are there at 21 or 22, then consider it. With as many holes and emerging holes that our roster has, I am going to maximize what we get out of this draft. Losing a pick for either of those two QB's is not a good decision. If anything I would trade down one of our first picks, draft Mike White in the second round and gain a pick in the process.
Alphadawg7 Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 1 hour ago, cba fan said: Yes for: Roquan Smith LB Georgia. This...and honestly, if the Bills trade up at all I think it WILL be for someone like Roquan Smith and NOT a QB. More importantly, both Josh Allen and Baker are probably going in the top 10. So I don't think either will be on the board at 12. If one of those QB's are there, no way Bills can trade just 1 of our firsts and 1 of our 2nds. Too much competition. But if the 4 QB's go top 10 like a lot of people believe, then trading to 12 gets a lot cheaper and this trade package makes sense. I would love to see us give up one of 2nds to move up for Roquan. Of course, if a QB they covet is there at 12 and we can get there this cheap, then take the QB. But I think we have to get in the top 10 to get a QB and it will 100% take both our first rounders to probably do so, and probably more than that. And I just don't see Beane paying that price. Trade #21 and a 2nd for Roquan, use #22 on Mason or Lamar would be a better plan to me than paying way too much to get high enough to grab one of the big 4. But you never know, one or two QB's can start to slip too making it more feasible.
BuffaloBillyG Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 I know the general opinion for moving up for a non QB...but if it would only cost us a 1 and a 2...I move up and take Vita Vea there.

buffaloboyinATL Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Hope they keep dropping. If one is there at 21, draft em. If notuse the picks to full other needs.
