Jauronimo Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 Move up to select who? Every year there are trade up or trade down threads that never address the fundamental question of why and for what.
auburnbillsbacker Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 If they have an early to mid first round grade on a player I would.
Ya Digg? Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 People go nuts when you give up a future first to get a first round pick, and now you want to suggest doing it for a second round pick? Let's say that the Bills make it to the AFC championship game, that means that they wouldn't pick until around the 60th pick next year. No guy who is currently left is worth sitting out the first 60 picks next year
hjnick Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) No. We were in the playoffs this year and we were 22nd. That's a huge fall from 22 down to the second round. There were still a good amount of impact players at 22 that we will probably need next year, like LB and Safety. Don't sacrifice the future. Edited April 24, 2020 by hjnick

Would you give up next years 1st to be in the top 5 of today's 2nd round. It would give us one more piece this year and is there really a big difference in the bottom of the 1st and beginning of the 2nd? Would you mind not making clickbait titles? 1
Just Joshin' Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 No. Move up with trading some of the latter round picks but keep 2,3 and 4 this year.

He can play man just fine but will thrive in zone in the nfl imo. I wouldn’t do it for anyone else. Short arms but I like him (no trade up though)
BillsVet Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 I thought this was going to be another thread where a teacher's mugshot was posted. Gotta love posters going for the click-bait thread titles. It's all the rage now. I guess you got me.

You do it if there are guys you really like who are still on the board, you expect to draft late next year, and you aren't sold on the 2021 draft class (believe me, the Bills already have a pretty good idea what the 2021 class is going to look like). You don't do it if you have any serious doubt that Josh Allen is your franchise QB. 28 minutes ago, Buddo said: No. Apart from anything else, we don't know if there will be a season yet. Isn't that a good reason to want an extra premium pick this year?

But what's wrong with adding an another starter this year? 8 minutes ago, Just Joshin' said: No. Move up with trading some of the latter round picks but keep 2,3 and 4 this year. How do you think that would work?

Not really, because the whole premise of 'win now' falls over if there are no games to win. If you were talking about giving up a next year 1st to go with another 1st to get a generational talent, then fair enough. But for just another 2nd round pick, who might not be ready to go if a season does start - I really don't think so. We might have a different idea of what a 'premium pick' consists of, because the top of the 2nd round isn't it for me. Top 15 of the First Round, that's a 'premium pick'.
