YoloinOhio Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 5 weeks. We are not gonna make it, folks. RIP us. 1
Augie Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Please stop. By definition, our “entire” draft does not count on what another team does. What if we draft 4 HOF guys after #2? I feel like an idiot for even responding. 5 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: 5 weeks. We are not gonna make it, folks. RIP us. I will try to hold my breath until the first pick. Odds are against me....

Mark my words...the talking heads like these QBs fsr more than the teams actually do Other positions besides QB are just as much of a crap shoot.
Bronxbomber21 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 If thats the case stay put at 12 & 22 and take LB R.Smith & QB L.Jackson and if not jackson at 22 then Sutton or Ridley and take your qb in the 2nd round.
TigerJ Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 There has been some noise about the Giants trading UP! There is some consolation in the probability that some QB drafted later than the top 5 will have a successful NFL career. We just don't know which one. All the Bills have to do is find him.
4merper4mer Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 It will suck to have 6 picks in the first three rounds. If only we could parlay them into two picks. 1
Bronxbomber21 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I dont understand why people are saying the draft would be a total loss if we don't trade everything away for a top 3 qb ? To me its still a win with all the talent we can add with 6 picks in the top 100. Plus we can still have enough ammo to trade back and add another 1st rounder for next see and try for the franchise then. 2
oldmanfan Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Question for the scouts: if McCarron were in this draft where would he rank?
lookylookyherecomescookie Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I find it hard to believe that Beane would trade TT, not go hard after any free agent QB, (AJ pretty much dropped to us when nobody else went after him), without knowing that he would be able to get the qb he wanted in the draft. I'd be shocked if we don't end up with the #2 choice. Beane has known for a while what the price for that is, and seeing his actions with TT and the available FA's , it looks like he's going to pay it. Just my opinion, but otherwise, his actions going all the way back to last year's draft make no sense. And all of Beane's other work to date shows a smart calculating GM who knows what he's doing. 3

Agreed. There are never guarantees, but I don’t see this FO as stumbling around hopping for something good to happen.

oldmanfan Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Reading all the scouting reports, watching guys, etc, is there really that much difference between these 6 guys? That's what I'm sure Beane and his staff are figuring out. If not, take a guy at 12. If so, make the move.

How did one of the Yugos turn into a sedan when we traded the four other Yugos? Was it magic? i mean seriously people are not rational. 4 of the first 5 picks are highly likely to be QB and it is almost equally unlikely that any of those spot holders is willing to trade. #4? Well if you're Cleveland you could get Barkley at 5 and a lot from Denver or you could move to 12 and get several more picks while you watch Barkley go to the HOF as a Colt. People crying about something that is simply out of our reach is just weird. It's like complaining about the sky being blue because your favorite color is yellow. And Roquan Smith is not a Yugo btw. 1

I don't have the time or the interest in going through the fallacies in this other than to say, you are right on Roquan. He will be a great LB for someone in picks 8-11.
Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Those that aren't concerned about the future of the QB position for this team are just wrong. I'm sick of hearing about all of our picks and how they will all be "starters" 1 1

BillsFanForever19 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) Josh Allen haters will need to keep an open mind. The way I see it - we'll at worst get best available between Darnold, Rosen, Allen, and Mayfield at 4, 5 (depending on the Broncos being cool with Keenum, Lynch, and Kelly), or 6. All better prospects than Watson, Trubisky, and Mahomes were last season. So, no, the entire Draft doesn't hinge on the Giants selection. Although i'd preferably be at 2 for either Darnold or Rosen - it won't be a Losman settlement if we end up with Josh Allen or Baker Mayfield. Especially if we maintain a number of picks this year for not being able to get as high as 2. Edited March 22, 2018 by BillsFanForever19
