With the 15th pick in the 2020 NFL draft the Denver Broncos have traded the pick to the Buffalo Bills the details are as follows:

 

Buffalo Trades picks: #22 (780) + #54 (360) + #86 (160) + 2021 3rd 

 

Buffalo Receives picks #15 (1050) & #77(205)

 

With pick #15 the Buffalo Bills select Henry Ruggs

 

 

 

I don't mind the player, but I mind giving up the 2nd and 3rd round pick.  We've turned those into quality starters we still have other holes (not knowing what FA looks like).  I'd rather stay put and get Higgens or Shenault plus a starting OLB and O-Lineman later.

 

But, I trust Reed and his logic

I have mixed feelings about him.. Either way, they're riding with him and Ruggs would be a huge benefit.

This is why we can't have nice things

Huh. Literally just realizing that I am also the falcons. Good thing this is a no-brainer for me.

 

 

With the (flips back to front page to check which pick this is) 16th pick in the 2020 NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons select, A.J. Epenesa, DE from Iowa. 

 

Two Words. Cameron Jordan. He wrecked a game against us to tune of 4 sacks this past year, and Epenesa looks just like him. We have the pieces on offense, and we have some good pieces on Defense. This guy will help us take the next step and get back to the top. 

 

We're very pleased that he's here waiting for us. 

 

@GunnerBill and the Cowgirls are on the clock.

It really is. I swear I scrolled through the master list looking to see if you gave me a second team, didn't see it and figured you filled all the spots. :P

We have plenty of cap room to both sign our own and address needs. I don't see Higgens as being who we want and I think if we stay put Shenault will be a consideration, pick #22 will have quite good value for CB as well, but as Beane said we need to score points. 

Imagine an offense where you have Smoke and Ruggs (who won't be underthrown by Josh) stretching the field for Beasley, Singletary, Knox & FA TE to work underneath in in between the levels. Ruggs = Tyreek Hill.

 

He is an excellent run blocker, has great hands, great release, extremely fast & agile, can make contested catches, will draw safeties to him. 

 

Moving up to almost any spot from #22 is going to cost. Philly and the Raiders will be primed to move to get a WR and if one of the top 3 is there and you can move in front of them to get the guy? I would...

 

I'm also not looking to fill a specific mold for a player, we need a blue chip/elite target who will help us score points and be a nightmare to matchup against

 

Edit: Also we moved up in the 3rd from 86 to 77, so we didn't give it up and we kept the rest of the draft intact. It was just swapping firsts and giving up our second rounder, but in reality we lose 90 points in the trade.  In real life we would give up 50 points in this trade and not use next year's #3; that was the 110% requirement Virgil placed on trades. 

 

So it would really be #22 + #56 + #86 for #15 + #77 and maybe an additional 4th in return

This is the only correct choice

GunnerBill is not logged on....but he has 3 hours and 45 minutes to make his pick, so we shall see what Jerruh and Stephen are thinking later on.

This would have made more sense to me for a Beane trade up. 2-3 top DEs in this draft vs 101 WRs. ?‍♂️

That maybe true but playing the GM I have to have the mindset that he is our #1.  Players rave about his leadership and swag so we gotta build upon that

He's across the pond so he could already be asleep. That's fine, it gives us time to focus on playing "Gruntled or Disgruntled" with the Bills trade! 

 

Edit: I stand corrected.

we are signing an edge in FA and as Beane said, we lost in Houston because we didn't score enough points...

Ruggs trade was gross, shades of Watkins.

 

Did Ruggs say something about your “little job”?  :)

The Dallas Cowboys have traded the 17th pick to the Baltimore Ravens. @Monty98 is now on the clock. 

 

Dallas gets #28 and #60

Baltimore gets #17

 

Baltimore is also sending Dallas their 4th round pick to meet the 110% compensation rule

Trading up for a WR in an incredibly deep WR draft.  He speed is special though.  I’d rather just keep the picks (maybe even trade down and accumulate more picks) and draft Reagor at some point.  I don’t think Ruggs is THAT much better
