The Case for Trading Back [Discussion]

[Bleeding Bills Blue]

I'm for it - i'd rather have 3 picks in the first 3 rounds, and 2 in the 4th.

Let's take a look at what potential trade partners that Beane might have in trading back into the 2nd round.

 

First, let's talk about Pick #28 worth 660 points.  Trading for a 3rd worth anywhere from 265 (Pick #65) to 3rd round comp Pick #100 (100 points)

gives Beane some room but it all depends on how far back in the 2nd he would want to go.

 

1).  I for one, wouldn't want Beane trading back past Pick #41 (Green Bay 490 points).  If GB wants to move up into the 1st they got a 3rd rounder

at Pick #88 (150 points).  Could do a lower round swap to even the worth.

2).  Carolina has Pick #33 and #39.  They don't have a 1st rounder.  Could be a potential trade partner.

3).  Washington has Pick #36 and #40.  They too could be a trade partner.

4).  Arizona already has 2 1st rounders and Pick #35.  They probably stand put.

5).  Doubt Beane trades with NE at Pick #34.

6).  LA Chargers have Pick #37 but their 3rd is too high to trade with the Bills.

7).  The last of that early 2nd round teams in the TEN Titans.  They are low on pick and don't have a 3rd rounder.

 

The way I see it, Carolina, Washington and Green Bay are pretty good potential trade partners.

Of these 3, Washington may well want to get back into the 1st and make a splash Day 1.  They seem to have the right picks for the

Bills to get either Pick 100 (worth 100 points) or Pick #78 (worth 200 points).  Washington does not have a 4th rounder.

 

TRADE:  Bills #28 (660 points AND Pick #133 (39.5 points) 699.5 POINTS TOTAL

for Washington Pick #40 (500 points) AND Pick #78 (200 points) 700 POINTS TOTAL

 

OR

 

TRADE:  Bills #28 (660 points) for Washington Pick #36 (540 points) AND Pick #100 (100 points).

I like this trade very much!

 

Depending on Beane's board, it's a possibility.

 

The Bills are not going to give up a fifth year option by dropping out of the first. It's FAR too valuable if the player turns out to be good (and the Bills will assume he will be because they'll be spending a first round pick on him).

would be nice to score a 3rd round pick.

It would be even nicer to score a #1 / 2 WR…, just sayin,
