What if the bills traded back but the guy they wanted is gone?

No, what it says is that Beane was being honest when he said they really didn't have 28 first round grades.

 

So why take a 2nd round graded player in the first round when you can get extra picks?

 

Clearly they were not as high on Worthy and Legette as many others were/are and they didn't see someone worth moving up to go get...perhaps BTJ was the last WR they would have been willing to trade up for and he was taken too high.

 

I mostly agree except that we didn't get any extra picks.

If the Bills loved Ricky Pearsell they would've taken Ricky Pearsell at #28.  If you love a guy you don't trade back four spots and hold your breath hoping he falls to you.

They traded down for two reasons, I think. 1) Beane wanted to get a 3rd round pick, and 2) Beane had no more 1st round grades on players, which means he didn't care if Worthy, Legette, or Pearsall wer

Yes its likely they dont *love* anyone at 2.01 and that there was a group of 4-5 players they would be ok taking at 1.32 or 2.01.
