What would make you want the Bills to Get Out of Round 1?

[Wizard]

For me in no particular player order:

 

If Darnell Wright, JSN of Ohio State, Bijan Robinson (the only 1st round quality back), or Jack Campbell are all not there, trade down!

 

If the Bills happen to have a top 15-20 player on their board that is not one of these guys, I will roll with that, but I would expect that player to be a starter in a position generally viewed as less of a hole/need.

 

What would make you want to trade down?  Who's off the board for ya at #27 where you want a trade down?

First, it would depend on just how far we’re moving down. I don’t wanna move down to like the middle of the second round.
 

Second, it would be what we were being compensated for to do the move

 

And third it’s how the draft board falls. If there are several players that are worth taking in a trade down scenario it just makes sense.

Based on DraftTek trade values, Buffalo would expect to gain a mid 3rd to a high 4th, assuming they also get their trade partner's next pick after 27. That's also assuming it follows the most common draft day trade-up recipe. But it could be more if some other team has a guy they really want at 27.

The qbs falling down the draft. if the qbs fall, then there might be some desperate to trade back in and also would mean the position players that might be there at 27 are gone already.

[billsherd]

A player that would make an impact right off the bus.

[BillsFanForever19]

Johnston, JSN, Flowers, and Addison are all gone at WR, Kincaid is gone at TE, and Beane wants a MLB not named Drew Sanders.

[MrEpsYtown]

Someone who is going to play, and hopefully start right away.

Switch out Campbell for Flowers and I’m right there with ya! 👍

DeAndre Hopkins?

[billsfan89]

If all 1st round-quality Tackles and WRs are not available and no complete steals are there at other positions then I would try to trade down into the early second round, get another pick or two to try and address more needs

This all day.  
 

The talent in this draft is meh.  While I hate not having a first round pick this year, the taken next year could be difference makers.  Also, if night enough, we could trade into the top 10 next year and get a stud

[Norcalbillsfan]

Jsn and Robinson will for sure be gone. Best offensive line talent will be gone. I think the big factors will be guys like Addison and Mazi Smith, they could very possibly make it to 27 and I could see the bills pulling the trigger. If both are gone I think the bills for sure trade back or at least try.

Agree but I am not crazy about Maxi or Addison. I'd still be very open to trading back with them on the board at pick 27.

Will a 2024 first rounder help us win this year?

Harrison Jr.!

Not being able to move up for a first round caliber prospect. Picking at 27 this year sucks. Move up or move back (if they can).

Realistically there are only about 15-18 true 1st rounders. Most mocks have Campbell & Sanders going early 2nd round. And then there's the problem of finding a reasonable trade down partner?  Players like JSN, Bijan, Wright are going to be long gone by 20 or so. And I'm afraid Pittsburgh @ 32 wants Campbell.  So Beane is going to have to create some magic.  I don't envy him next week.

If there’s a disgruntled WR halfway through the season it could come in handy.  Say DeVantae Adams as an example.
