The question is simply how much are they willing to pay not can they outbid someone else. They absolutely can. Do they want to is the only question. This is what i said in my original post in this thread. The team looking to trade back in the draft will most likely call the Bills before finalizing any deals due to the fact the Bills have the most to give in return. 1

Bills are in the drivers seat, with four teams in top seven wanting badly to trade down, and the Bills with the most to offer. I don’t care. Get the QB. Enough trying to play these games with not wanting to spend. The time is now. Get the player. I don’t care about what it takes.

I'll deal with "overpaying" the perceived value, and missing out on a random DL or LB. Get me the franchise QB. The time is now. If only it were that simple - overpay for “the franchise QB”. Right now we can only overpay for a lottery ticket with better than average odds.

I'm fully expecting at least 1 person on this board to have an anxiety attack before the draft even starts. We'll have answers soon enough! 7 minutes ago, mannc said: It’s the right mindset to get fleeced.

You get a franchise QB who starts for the next 12 years and no one is going to care you didn't get the MLB/CB/G that was better than the other guy you wound up getting in the 3rd 2 2

I going on record, we trade LeSean McCoy or Jerry Hughes combined with a package of picks for the 2nd pick over all and LT Flowers from the New York Giants. We draft either Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen. Lets Go Bills!!!! Anything can happen with Beane. 1

Get the player. I don’t care about what it takes. Maybe if there were only 1 or 2 top QBs in the draft, but that's not the case. There are at least four top QBs, about whom there is zero consensus. Anyone who thinks they know which one is "the guy" is kidding themselves. It sounds as if Beane would be happy with any of the four, which is exactly the right mindset since no one knows for sure. That puts the Bills in a very favorable bargaining position, with the ability to get "our guy" at 2, 4 or even 5 or 6. No need to panic.

He literally just said yesterday he sees 1 franchise guy above the rest and can trade to 2 without giving up picks next year. As long as Baker wasn't that one guy, he's probably had something agreed to in principle with the Giants for a bit of time.

That’s really where I’m at with it. I don’t want them to end up with the one that’s left. I want them to get the 1 they want.

Dark Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: I continue to think Denver wants Denzel Ward I agree. I think many draft prognosticators underestimate the message sent by a team when taking a QB early. It really defines where the organization is going and many GMs don't want to intentionally cause drama on their teams. I believe this applies to the Giants, Broncos, and Dolphins in this year's draft of teams who are rumored to be looking at QB.
baskingridgebillsfan Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: I think the only reason Broncos are leaking interest in QBs is to maximize this return on the 5th pick. It was mayfield forever and now all of a sudden today, when it appears mayfield won’t be there, they like Darnold? Ok. could be , buddy of mine if s big broncos fan and follows them like you follow the Bills , his point all along is the Broncos are not taking a qb in round 1
Radar Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 I think Giants will keep the pick. I also think they will not take quarterback at #2. They can get one later and my hunch is Barkley if he doesn't go to Browns.
