Just finished reading an article where it looks like the Bills ended up with 3 6th round picks for the 2024 draft....is that article right? I don't recall any of thsoe trades

 

Updating the traded picks in the 2024 NFL draft after the trade deadline (yahoo.com)

That was one of the jokes from that draft that Beane was trying to get all the 6th rd picks

[Royale with Cheese]

I said this in the Bengals thread but Beane is leaving the door open for him to play.  He's going to full go practice today and then see how he picks the defense mentally through the walk through on Saturday.

This guy is a good veteran corner still in his prime who should fit in very well with what the Bills do, which is a lot like what GB does for that matter. Beane definitely won this trade.  A third was probably even light comp to GB but getting a fifth back seals the deal as a big win. I dont follow the Pack but over the years I’ve taken in some of their games and I noticed this guy. He looked to me like a very smart player at his position and a playmaker.

I wonder if there's a way to convert the 'conditional draft pick' to an immediate 'we're raiding your active roster'?  That might liven things up.  Or, how about an ESPN program that allows phone in / internet voting to allocate compensatory relief for an aggrieved team.  "You lost your promising OC?  No worries, America has voted that you get NPeterman!"

Well, Aaron Rodgers said he was one of the smartest players he has ever met so I would suspect there is a good chance he picks enough up to play.

This shows Dane Jackson at about 23% separation prevented, and Rasul Douglas at about 71% separation prevented. Huge upgrade.

 

Benford is actually one of the best in the league at just over 80% separation prevented. He and Douglas make a really nice tandem.

Is he gonna play Sunday night? Do we know yet?

Douglas has absolutely elite processing skills and instincts...some of the plays he makes where he just appears out of nowhere for INTs are pretty special to see. Saw that in the clip I posted above against TEN and even in the INT last year he had against Allen.

I hear ya - I'm giddy like an Xmas kid about this "new" D. I hope he plays. I think he will.....

If he does it depends on how well he picks up the defense in the practices he has before the game so we don't know.

Subbing Rasul for Dane Jackson basically gives the Bills the 3rd best trio of CB's in the NFL behind the Jets and Ravens instantaneously.  Tremendous upgrade by Beane.

[Beast]

From here on out I’m going to refer to him as Raul Douglas….1, because Raul is a great name. 2, because people here will get annoyed.

I've never understood why Darby bounces from team to team so often.  I've always thought he did a decent job

Locker Room fit/team buy-in.

He won a SB ring with the Eagles.

So we just added 3 players to this team that have all won Super Bowls

Beane! Do I hear 4?   Suh?

 

Beane!! Do I hear 5?  Gronk

I actually think they are waiting for Suh's # to come down.

Surprising myself as I HATE him.

But , if it improve the team ... and it would fill that hole /gap quite well
