Seems incoherent… He means trade the 2026 Bills' first and 62 for someone's second round pick that is earlier than 62 and also their 2025 third round pick. You end up with Nolen at 30, Collins and Porter with your second round picks, and Thornton with the newly acquired third round pick. It's not incoherent, but it is irresponsible.

We need to hit on our top 3 picks and maybe find a way to trade into the 3rd and hit on that. Our 2026 1st to Seattle should get us from 62 to 52 and get us 82. They have 50/52 and 82/92. They're really only giving up a 3rd and they'll have 2 1sts next year in case Darnold doesn't cut it. Obviously we keep pick 30. Win win 1 1 Quote

Win win Trading future picks for current year picks at a full round discount is not good business unless you are absolutely sure that the guy you get this year is going to be very good. That’s only my opinion, but it is basically buying on credit with steep interest. 1 2 Quote

MrEpsYtown Posted yesterday at 03:47 AM Posted yesterday at 03:47 AM Joe Marino’s DT, Corner and Edge breakdowns were pretty interesting and he kind of clearly points out which guys make sense from a Bills perspective. I highly recommend. 2 1 Quote
njbuff Posted yesterday at 09:38 AM Posted yesterday at 09:38 AM Is Alfred Collin’s a first round talent and would the Bills consider him at 30 if he’s there? I know he’s already 24, but he is a physically imposing player who moves well for his size. 1 Quote

Didn't get him very far. 1 Quote
MrEpsYtown Posted yesterday at 01:09 PM Posted yesterday at 01:09 PM Couple of interesting things about the corners Marino mentioned... He seems to like Amos a bunch. Amos seems like the high floor guy. He's plug and play with a strong zone acumen. He also appears to like Hairston. He mentioned Hairston's 2023 tape was better as he had a shoulder injury in 2024. Those two guys seem like the best fits for us, however, I don't think either will be there in round two. Shavon Revel is also a great fit. His issue is that ACL. At the very least you have to assume he will be slow to start in camp and that likely hurts his chances of stepping in right away. But the upside is really big honestly. I like this player, I just am not sure they go down this road. Thomas is a crazy physical freak. He's only 20, a bit raw and a man press corner who struggles in zone. Sounds familiar to me. But he certainly has the physical traits and length the Bills look for. Porter is a crazy athlete with length, but he doesn't have a ton of experience as a corner and he is also 24 years old, same age as Christian Benford. The age thing doesn't bother me as much, but it is an interesting thought to take a guy who is raw and inexperienced and older. Marino also really liked Parrish from Kansas State. He's just small. 2 Quote

But I'd much rather see them get a little aggressive and secure a spot, even if it's in the late 3rd, to land Dont'e Thornton. I think Thornton may bust out with 90% of the NFL teams. Especially teams who have bigger WR needs and try to throw him out there as their starting X from Day one... But in Buffalo, given an "everybody eats" role... I think there could be something really nice there... 1 Quote

And that speed is VERY real on the football field. I think it's always important to remember we have 17... And 17 could make a guy like Thornton famous while more than half the other QB's in the league will have him buried on the Practice Squad... 1 1 Quote
