Irv Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 If the Bills are moving up, why wait until tonight? Couldn't make a deal? Never intended to move up? Not saying wrong or right - just difficult to figure out the strategy.
baskingridgebillsfan Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 I wouldn't trade down until the last moment . teams are leveraging other teams this will go on all day , unless somebody is willing to over pay with it take it or leave it offer 2
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Probably have deals worked out but are waiting to see who is there or who the trade partner wants in case someone falls 2

K D Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 They were tired and needed a nap. I hope they set their alarm. 1
947 Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Why would they move without knowing who will be on the board at the pick in question? If they move up, it'll be while that team is on the clock & their QB is available. 2
The Jokeman Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) If reports are they like 1 QB then they're likely going to see if he falls to a place they can grab him and not sacrifice the rest of the draft for him. I think the QB Cleveland takes at 1 could really help or hurt the Bills chances on getting their guy. Edited April 26, 2018 by The Jokeman 3
BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Why trade up until you know what's left on the board ? 3 1
Wsam4031 Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Because they need to see how the draft starts to fall. If Mayfield goes 1 maybe they wasn't to get to 2 for Darnold but if Darnold goes 1 then maybe they think 2 is too high for Allen when they can get him or rosen maybe at 5 or 6 and give up less. Id bet they just wanna see how things play out. Im sure they have talked to most of the teams in front of them to cover every scenario and have some trades worked out in principle already 1

Rigotz Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Assuming you're trolling here, so I will suggest we shut down the thread. The Browns haven't disclosed who they're going to pick so the Giants want to see. Everything else is dependent upon that. This is common sense. 1
Steve Billieve Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 of course you would answer a question with a question 1
papazoid Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 because clev is NOT trading #1 because NYG are NOT trading #2 until the see what clev does at #1 because the NYJ are NOT trading #3 and so on and so on.... 2
ricojes Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) Waiting on the fax repair man... But seriously, it all depends on who the Browns take at 1. If they go with Mayfield or Allen, the Bills probably don't need to go to 2 to get their guy, they can afford to go to 4. Edited April 26, 2018 by ricojes 1

Bills365 Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Until the last couple years with Philadelphia and St.louis at the time and this year with the jets. I dont remember any teams moving up before the draft starts. It's usually when a teams on the clock. 1
