ghostwriter Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I know everybody loves Bijan Robinson, but what if he was gone and there were no good OL or WRs available and somebody offered Buffalo a 2nd + a 3rd for pick #27, who would you take?

BringBackFergy Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 ??? Take “where”? If Chicago gave us their 2nd round pick vs KC giving us their 2nd rounder. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know, let’s split the baby down the middle and let’s say it’s a mid 2nd and a mid 3rd round pick and Buffalo still has their 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th round picks on top of it. I’m sorry that I was a bit too vague in the OP, I didn’t want to superimpose my thoughts on everyone else, I genuinely wanted to hear everyone else’s opinion on who they would take. We have a thread on Buffalo staying put at 27 and Buffalo drafting a defensive player at 27 and Buffalo drafting an offensive player at 27, I thought we needed a Trade Down Thread as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 The middle of second? You’re probably talking Jack Campbell and Cedric Tillman territory and if it’s oline thats Steve Avillas likely area 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 If it was top end of 2nd, best G/Center and then use some of the draft capital to move back up and grab best (fast) WR available. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whorlnut Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 John Michael Schmitz or Darnell Wright if OL. If they go offensive weapon then I want Jayden Reed or Dalton Kincaid. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those players are going to be starters in the NFL. 3 minutes ago, whorlnut said: John Michael Schmitz or Darnell Wright if OL.

whorlnut Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Beane has to do right by Allen this off-season and put premium assets into the offense. Plug defensive holes in FA and mid to late round picks. He’s created this situation and now it’s time to fix it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they should But what do you do if they go out and they actually bring in a heavily priced free agent guard That’s why this conversation is difficult without knowing what they do in free agency Next year’s line probably looks like Dawkins Bates Morse Free agent or draft pick Spencer Brown They should draft another guard, and they should draft competition for Spencer Brown at right tackle 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like you said we're all just throwing darts in the dark until free agency shapes things up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hope is he flips the script and does for the defense what he has done for the offense the past couple years. Wait it out and get some bargain vets on prove it deals. Then dump premium picks and signings into the offense. Enough with these high priced d FAs and day 1 picks. Our d is good enough, which is all we need.

I think he has to free up some cap space and at least sign 1 absolute upgrade (preferably RG) fairly quickly and land a couple guys who could compete for playing time at other positions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the draft pick value chart says to get a roughly equal value would be with Atlanta for #44 and 75. So anything above #44 that for a 2nd and 3rd swap, Buffalo would be making out well with that trade. Around that area, best Guard, WR, LB or Safety. I think there is alot of good potential WRs and Oline in this draft. Let's get 2. Those 2 positions I wouldn't mind doubling up on.

Somebody mentioned Steve Avila and I think if Buffalo could get him in a trade down you could do no wrong. Maybe slot him in at RG and eventually have him take over at C, that would be nice. I suppose I wouldn’t mind Zach Charbonnett also, but I would prefer Avila or Dawand Jones. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingBoots8 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Mid 40s roughly would look like this for me: Offense: G Steve Avila C John Michael-Schmitz Defense: LB Jack Campbell in my eyes it’s got to be those 3 unless someone like a good WR falls for some reason. They’re all immediate starters for sure. I don’t think any of them last to 59 so take whomever you think is going to be BPA. At 59 I think you can get a WR like Dell and go from there, or a player like C/G Joe Tippman, so maybe that bumps Campbell up the list because he looks like he could be too good to pass up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 I really don’t care where or when they get them but I’d be thrilled if the Bills selected a couple of young, stud Offensive Guards to anchor the O Line for the duration of Josh’s contract. I’ve said it before, it’s not sexy, but it’ll make everything else so much easier for many years to come. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1105 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Premium Centers like Schmitz tend to ride up draft boards the closer to the draft or gets. Wouldn’t surprise me if Schmitz goes in the last 10 picks of round 1 esp in a weak draft like this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
