OldTimer1960 Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 The Patriots threat - it is real and a at least will force the Bills into taking a QB no later than 12 or they will be shut out of even the 2nd tier QBs. I like what McDermott and Beane are doing, but I think that they have been out maneuvered by both the Jets and Pats. Pats might not move ahead of them, but they have removed the possibility of taking a position player at 12 and hoping to get a QB at 22, let alone hoping to get a QB In round 2. 1

If we don't move up, or it we don't get Mayfield at 12, then he'll jump in front of us to get him some Rudolph. BB doesn't want Mayfield, he wants him some Rudolph. IF we get our QB, BB will get him some Rudolph. He will be smirking in private. Why??

And will be looking to grab a QB - they draft one every season I think. Maybe Rudolph. I think they want an OT and perhaps McGlinchey from Notre Dame is the target.

CommonCents Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 The Pats aren't trading into the top 10 for Chubb etc. Belichick is leaving, neither Brady or Gronk have even confirmed that they are coming back for another season. They are working together to leverage against the HC. Things are very much a mess at Patriots Place. I'm sure the Krafts realized they need a QB for Josh because Brady has changed his tune on that playing until 45 talk. The Krafts aren't going to want to fall on their face without Belichick, they are going to do everything they can to right the wrong of Jimmy G. Look for them to go after Allen. They will sit him for a year and trust Josh to mold him into a superstar.

I hate the Patriots, Cooks is not worth giving up the 23rd pick, Rams are so stupid.

How have they been "out maneuvered" by the Pats*? Folks need to lay off on the conspiracy pills. 1 1

Until this deal, it was at least plausible to think the Bills could nab a great non-QB prospect at 12 and then come back at 22 or a bit earlier to get a 2nd tier QB in Rudolph, Jackson - possibly including White and Lauletta. Now that door has been essentially shut.

He doesn't want us to think that we can wait until 22 to get Rudolph. In fact, he wants the option to jump into the teens to get Rudolph. So he gets Rudolph, and we spend all of our draft capital on a high-risk rookie. BB is the master puppeteer.

I like Donald but find me a DT that got a 100 million dollar contract and tell me which team is glad they paid him instead of let him walk. Between the epic Suh failure, Dareus staying on the weeeeeed, Watt's injuries, none of these guys have been worth the money. hopefully Donald can stay healthy and break the trend. Don't bring up Fletcher Cox his defense let up 500 yards to Brady in the SB. DT should be a rotational position and limited resources should be spent on it.

Absolutely true, but many here have over-valued the Bills' draft "capital" - other teams have near as much and *might* drive the cost of a QB to ridiculous levels that a team can never recover from.
