What the Bills do at #9 is critically dependent upon whether the Giants take a QB at #6. Is this a smokescreen or an honest admission from Gettleman? If he did tip his hand, it hurts our chances of getting a defensive playmaker like Oliver (and of course, Q. WIlliams).

We went 4-4 the second half of the year and we had three games that if we make a stop, we are 7-1. Obviously, you can’t have too many playmakers,” he said. “I have always been a big believer that if you look at the great defenses, they have a lead dog in every level. A legitimate playmaker at every level of their defense. I said it at the postseason presser and I will say it again, we need some defensive playmakers.”

Seems like that’s McBeane’s philosophy as well. Tre’Davious, Edmunds but nothing on the DL. I think that a trade up could very well be in play here for the Bills. Tampa’s area code is 727, Beane better get on the phone.

A trade up would be ridiculous. You can get an elite defensive player at 9. Period.

 

Also, it's smoke season guys. Whatever a GM is saying means nothing.

That seems like such an obvious smoke screen to me. A GM would not want to tip his hand like that.

Please remember that this is the time of the year where everything that GM's say about the draft is probably not exactly true or accurate. Without the GM poker games this would be a really boring time of year football wise. The misinformation and Kay Adams ranting about the Bills "No Primetime" game is what makes this time of year bearable. ?

He may not be tipping his hand, but he certainly isn’t wrong. In saying that, they do have 2 early picks so they can easily split them on O and D.

I absolutely cannot be the only one here who is tired of everything Gettleman says and would be perfectly OK if he took up communicating in French.

 

Communicating in French for him would be like taking a franchise QB. He'd be more likely to take up communicating in Pig Latin.

J. Hughes is for sure a play maker.

Cam Newton?

There will be a full scale riot in New York/Jersey if they don't take a QB in the first, and I don't see them blowing their Beckham trade loot trading up their second pick to maybe get the 4th best QB when the 2nd best was theirs for the taking.

I agree with you. He may already have a deal in place to acquire Rosen from Arizona.  They have an early 2nd round pick that may be enough to make the trade.  He may think that none of the QB's other than Murray are better than Rosen.  If he pulls off the trade, he keeps the two #1's and keeps the flexibility to take two good position players on either offense or defense.

Yeah exactly...I mean its almost better if they actually DO say what they are thinking because no one will believe them anyway

Really meant "at least second best".  Haskins looks better but I'm not fully educated on the prospects this year.
