bills6969 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I'd give it an A-. We got our QB and a stud LB who was way underdrafted (most mocks had him top 10). Only issue i have is we gave up too much to get Allen. Both of 2nd round picks to move up 5 spots to 7 is a lot IMO.
FLXbillsmafia Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) The Allen pick was an F. Edmunds was a solid pick, but we traded away #64, so I give it a B+ Averages to a C-. I think we will regret not taking Rosen for a long time. Edited April 27, 2018 by FLXbillsmafia 3 1

John in Jax Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Really won't know until December. It's really funny to see all the wailing and crying in here tonight from TSW "experts." It's all a crapshoot (draft picks) anyways. Going back in draft history, How many first round picks (for all teams) have turned out to be Duds? The answer is many. 1
BillsFan130 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 A. Got in my opinion their 2nd highest rated QB on the board, kept their first round pick, and got a potential beast LB 2

Is he a bust and nearing the end of his career already? 3
Xwnyer Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 A+ might have gotten the best QB in draft and also the best LB 3
CajunBillsBacker Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 A- I am impressed that Beane let the draft play out and made the move at the right time. I wanted Rosen like many others at that pick, but now that it’s over I do feel like we got the right QB and Bills fans will learn to love this guy. I had him higher than Darnold though, so time will tell! Edmunds is an absolute steal and fills a big need. 1
dayman Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 A. I like the Allen pick. Big, strong, mobile. Can make things happen. Has played behind a bad Oline w/ out all star WR talent on a team that needed him to carry the load and score a bunch anyway. Didn't have great stats, tried to make too much happen sometimes, but that's how it goes. Of course, he needs to fix his feet and work on the crazy throws which is easier said than done. All things said though, he's got more potential to succeed in Buffalo than almost any QB I've seen us grab in a while. Glad we took the risk and w/ AJ in here he doesn't have to pan out immediately he can sit. LB is great. Nothing needs to be said there. Everyone agrees on that one.
Mountain Man Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Either an A+ or F-. It simply depends what you from Allen.

I'm not a fan of trading up in general. Picking Allen over Rosen will go down as a really bad idea. Like Edmunds but not as a trade up.
TFBillsfan Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Ask me in 2 years. Until then everything is just speculation and hope!

I liked rosen but not melting down on allen. Would’ve liked the trade for a 2 plus a day three pick A LOT more and don’t think it’s a crazy valuation on my part but.... we will see. The polished mid range passer seemed a better option for a team without any pieces for a deep game but a good bunch of intermediate guys Edited April 27, 2018 by NoSaint
whatdrought Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Right now? A+ Best potential QB and Best potential LB in the draft and we still have 6 picks to build.
