Kirby Jackson Posted April 17 Posted April 17 I’d probably need 5 firsts including the first overall pick with a “can’t miss QB” prospect in the draft. I’m not talking Trevor Lawrence. I’m talking Andrew Luck / Peyton Manning level prospect. 1 6 1 1 Quote

Sweats Posted April 17 Posted April 17 This is a tough one....on one hand, you have the 2nd best QB in the league, but on the other hand, there are some quality QB's in this draft.....unproven, yes, but every QB is unproven when coming out of college and playing their first season in the NFL. I voted yes, only because if you can get enough draft capital in the next 2 years, you could actually build something special. It seems we're just piecemealing a roster together the past couple of years, but if you can create a structured foundation, you can have a somewhat juggernaut for years to come.....all on a rookie salary. Would i want this to happen?......probably not, but i wouldn't be upset with it. 1 1 1 Quote

BuffaloBillyG Posted April 17 Posted April 17 I mean, sure we already have Josh Allen. But those are draft picks. A draft pick can turn out to be anything...heck we could even end up with the next Josh Allen! Something about a bird in the hand being better than two in a bush applies here, I believe. So I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means 'no'". 4 4 1 Quote

Everybody’s got a price! I might do it in 2038 if josh is still playing. The Bills more or less pulled this sort of trade of with an old and much less potent OJ. 2 Quote

Everybody’s got a price! You want to trade a PROVEN generational talent QB, an on track for the HOF QB, to draft a QB that you have no idea if he will pan out, another pick to draft a player that you will have no idea whether he will work out, and then a couple more high end picks in 2025? You do realize that Josh Allen IS the Buffalo Bills right now, right? There is no price. You don't trade a generational talent QB in the prime of his career. 2 4 7 Quote

nedboy7 Posted April 17 Posted April 17 I voted yes. Since it’s been said we aren’t winning anyways. I’m rebuilding for the post McAllen era. 1 Quote
Low Positive Posted April 17 Posted April 17 I’ve been a no on this since @Pine Barrens Mafia suggested it in the aftermath of the Denver loss, but the salary cap does make things like this interesting to think about. At every position other than QB, a high-level draft prospect has more value than an all-pro. For example, the right to pick MHJ is worth more right now than Justin Jefferson. This is unique to the NFL. International soccer leagues have no cap or draft, baseball has no cap or draft for Latin American players and players take years to develop, the NBA has a soft cap, and the NHL drafts at 18 so like baseball players take years to see the top league. In the NFL, potential on a rookie deal is worth more than any player that you have to pay. All that being said, QB is different. Quote
