SouthNYfan Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Let's trade back to get more ammo for next year when there is even less QBs coming out. Brilliant. 1
GreggTX Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 I'd be very surprised if either Allen or Mayfield were still around at 12 and I'd be really upset if they threw away a 12th pick on Jackson or Rudolph. They could trade down and get one of those guys, but why do we even want them. I liked Jackson at first, but after watching him throw at the combine -- UGH! Rudolph, I hear, will never be any more than average QB. If we can't choose from Darnold, Rosen, Allen and Mayfield, I say let's tank in 2018 and get our QB next year, if one of available. 6 minutes ago, nucci said: They may trade down , they may trade up or they may stay where they are You have impeccable insight, my friend!

Elite Poster Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Let's just keep trading down and become the browns, good plan!
gobills1212 Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Title is a bit misleading. YOU have a theory about what YOU think the Bills might do. Nothing wrong w that, but it doesn't mean they might do it as your title suggests

He is a smart QB who diagnoses the defense quickly and slides to find his throwing lane if need be. Mayfield over Allen all day, every day. Can this even be a question? I'm not a huge fan of the crotch-grabbing, look at me antics. But Baker Mayfield is going to have one helluva NFL career, right out of the gate. 1
Direhard Fan Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Leave the poor guy alone. He could be just as close as anyone on this board. One month to go and we all can guess today and don't know anything. Believe in the process please.

Problem is, outside of WRs from Clemson, teams usually only trade a future 1st for QBs. What you are suggesting is kind of a catch 22, a player who isn't good enough that we want him but is good enough a team wants to trade up for him. As an aside, I really can't see the Steelers doing that, that's just not how they operate. I agree. The Steelers have traditionally never done that, unless they traded for a QB. 1 hour ago, dezertbill said: You dont reverse course a month out from the draft when you have a single goal in mind which is to move up and draft your franchise QB and youve been spending the last year acquiring assets to do so. Many are mistaking Inaction with second guessing. The Bills could have a couple deals on the table involving Giants and Broncos that may go down to draft day. No one knows. Until then we’ll get silly threads like this I definitely believe that the deals are almost in place, but contingent upon the Giants true game plan. QB, DE or trade down. Denver may trade down? 1 hour ago, MJS said: Wow. That would never happen. Ever. No need to even discuss it. I hope not, but I would not doubt it what-so-ever.

This post would be much better titled: "Why I think the Bills may trade down." Very true. OP in the future it would be a good idea to not seemingly post an opinion as news you're reporting. Thanks!

Strategic move to get into position to move up for QB 2 - Beane said that we were not ready yet to evaluate the QBs and Jets boxed us out, by raising the price to 3 first round picks and a 3rd rounder. 3 - Then the Giants traded JPP.... Why? Rosen or Chubb is my guess. Or a trade down to top 5 and still get Chubb or OG 4 - Rosen was the target. Do we believe strongly that Allen/Mayfield can be our guy?

We need ALL of our picks this year as we have glaring holes to fill. We can't buy the farm without knowing how many cows are in the barn..

But overpay for an average QB instead or build the roster? I buy lottery tickets, but don't expect to win. However, if a guy is worth the risk pull the trigger or trade up. I can't say since I have to ignore the press. 1 hour ago, Tyrod's friend said: Can this even be a question? I'm not a huge fan of the crotch-grabbing, look at me antics. But Baker Mayfield is going to have one helluva NFL career, right out of the gate. I think you may be right. His swag is off the charts. If Allen had his swag, then I would choose him. Mayfield will be limited. Think Chad Pennington with a bit more juice and athleticism. Edited March 23, 2018 by BBillsWestCoast because

I know we gave a player not a pick, thats irrelevant. We gave up something to move up, why would we turn around and move back down. We didnt save that much cap space. So we moved up for a strategic qb play, or we wanted a player (say Roquan Smith) that has value around there. Trading down would negate the glenn trade Edited March 23, 2018 by Bray Wyatt

That or the other lb edmunds. I have a feeling one of them will be there, but yes is one of the top 4 qbs are gone and the lbs are gone, we may take vita vea too. If he is gone too, then trade back i guess, but i think that has the smallest chance of happening

Can teach that, so he to me makes him Zack Brown with size, but I did love Urlacher!.
