I'm not a "I quit on the team guy".

 

That being said, if Beane sits on these picks and watches the Jets and Pats move in to take QBs, I quit.

 

Panic set in quick.

Can you imagine the backlash is Brady’s top WR (arguable, I guess) for a future QB in the last days of the best QB ever, after losing so much in the free agency period and, even before that, needing so much on D?  This is about the final run and beefing up, not rebuilding.

Cooks isn't a winner. He is a complimentary player at best and does nothing on the inside of the field where Brady and McDaniels make their hay.

They have a couple of twos, like us. We also have a couple 3’s. And who’s pick in the same round next year would you rather have?  GET THIS RIGHT! 

 

 

Please

Then he's a moron for not finalizing it and allowing the Giants to continue to negotiate.

The Rams are going to want to pay Todd Gurley, Marcus Peters, Brandin Cooks, Lamarcus Joyner, and Aaron Donald. Without breaking the bank so bad they can't pay Goff in a few years. Uhhhhh good luck with that one. Oh well there's always the draft... ahhh right.

Yea they are completely ignoring their future for success . This is Eagles dream team all over again.

I see the whiny overreacting ninny's are out in full force.  This draft cannot come soon enough.

[turftoe]

Gronk + 23 +31 for pick #4?

And no team wants to "help" the Pats have longevity after Brady is gone.  So by default, our offer on equal ground has more chance to be accepted than the Pats...and our picks are better anyway like you said.

I doubt the Pats are going to trade away a bunch of picks to move up for a qb. They'll use those picks to add to the roster on both sides of the ball. If they draft a qb it will be with one of the picks they already have. 

 

When a team deals with the Pats or any team it has little regard for what it will do for the other teams. The only concern is how will the transaction help them. My sense of this deal from a Ram perspective is that they want to take advantage of Goff while he is under his first contract. The Pats are always thinking ahead. They have shed some expensive veteran players and will soon replenish them with younger and cheaper talent. Don't be surprised if the Pats draft Gronk's replacement this year and also draft a second-tier qb ala Garappolo in this draft.

Certainly possible. I think again the Pats offense makes some sense for Rudolph.  If they take a Quarterback in the 1st it tells me that Brady is playing his final year.   

 

I agree about Rudolph & I think they might like this guy also--- Kyle Lauletta, QB, Richmond.

Is this where I whine?  Wanted to make sure i was in the right thread.  Oy vey... O_o

 

Let. It. Play. Out.

 

All threads are for whining especially if you are promises to stop following the Bills if the front office does not do what you want.

 

I'd be all for it IF the Stadium Wall front office would enforce these promises even if it means another 17 years without a playoff game.

[DaBillsFanSince1973]

wonder how many here can make it to draft day? based on the few reactions in this thread I would say some wont make it.

[YoloinOhio]

I highly doubt they are going to trade away everything for a QB. They just don’t want to pay Cooks. They are loading up for another run with Tom. They will take Lauletta in the 2nd

Going to make a play for Rudolph perhaps?

This is what first came into my mind too. Both the Steelers and Patriots have been frothing all over this kid. As others have noted I kinda doubt they have the ammo to move into the top 5 considering they are always choosing near last.

 

Then again they could be going for another WR like Calvin Ridley, DJ Moore. 

[JerseyBills]

Obj would be a nightmare in that system.

Don't ever discount what the Pat's could do if need be. How on this green earth do they get what they got for Cooks? I mean how do they pull off half of what they do?

 

Believe me if the Pat's want to move up they will find a way.

They need OT, CB and DL help.  I think they are reloading for the last run.

As they should be, but that doesn’t sound like a QB who will ride the pine.

True....but the Pats can now  make it very expensive for the Bills to move up. Wouldn't put it past BB to drive up the price on Rosen for the Bills just for ***** and giggles.
