Wow, him and Roquan Smith will prove to be quite formidable.

And that it certainly why the Bills were in the mix here. I think they believe that too, but they need to know who they are and where they are too before they dance on the yacht with red wine and cigars and no OL or WR to provide their hopeful franchise QB.

 

Fair enough but this is going to be a long season - not sure the fans are ready for it.  Beane gets through the next offseason to show progress.

We have been chasing contender status for what, two and a half decades?  At some point you need to accumulate talent and try to win games.

 

If this was happening this time next season, I’d agree but the Bills have no idea what they have in Allen, yet.

[Doc]

Crazy.  Two 1sts, a player, and paying him $22.5M/year.

[scribo]

Jim Miller is thrilled.

They are trying to WIN GAMES.  The Bills should consider it.

I think we traded for Kelvin Benjamin and required giving up draft picks.

Yeah. That was a very nice thing to see and I give them credit for that. It wasn’t a high pick and it doesn’t happen very often. We also did much more trading of our players for picks before that and had extra. I am more speaking of trading a high pick for big time players not mid or late round picks for guys that we might not even keep.

This is the best Bills pass in a long time. Too big of a price for one non QP player..

Or they wont because maybe the DE position continues to be schemed against to have less and less impact 

[BuffaloRebound]

Even if Beane offered two 1st rounders, I’m sure Oakland would’ve still taken Chicago’s offer to get him out of AFC. 

[Buffalo_Stampede]

I guess Bills fans have to ask themselves ...

 

Ed Oliver/Nick Bosa

2020 1st round pick

$24 million in cap space

 

or

 

Kahlil Mack

Reports are “More than two 1st round picks”

Two firsts and a player, I think.  A big ask.

...pretty much thought McBeane would get "alligator arms" in his reach out...........

Two firsts and a player? Wow!

Think about all of our 1st round picks over the last 15 years. How many pairs of them would you take over Mack? People need to stop overvaluing draft picks. Get good players. We have plenty of draft picks left over after these trades and we never pick the right guys anyway.

Mack

I’ll take a rookie on a rookie deal, along with a  couple of FA offensive linemen for less money..

 

Over valuing draft picks? It’s not about picks, it’s about capital management. So, If Mack goes down in a week with a torn ACL, then what?

yeah, big problems..

If he puts up 15 sacks a year for 5 years do people think it’s worth it? Absolutely
