I'd almost think at that point Beane doesnt trade up and may even trade down and take Jackson/Rudolph. Thank god it worked out like it actually did. The leaked Bills QB board picture from ‘18 shoes the rankings thus: Allen Darnold Mayfield Rudolph If I remember correctly, Jackson wasn’t even listed.

I'd be willing to bet a lot Allen would have been the choice Glad the Browns stuck with Mayfield!

Good call. But that is also when we were trying to move up as high as possible in the draft. I think if Beane saw Allen and Darnold go before our pick, the strategy changes and therefore the prospects change. IIRC, there was a Beane interview where he even said if our top guys were gone, he would have looked into trading down. Maybe that means Rudolph only. 1
