What is your draft doomsday scenario?

How does this compare to the rest of the league during that span?

 

They probably all have a losing record collectively, imo.

 

QB rushes (which is where Balt and KC made their money against us last playoff run) isn't generally a function of not having a big fat tub of goo at 1t, but the EDGEs poorly containing.

Ah i got what you are saying.

 

You are saying that when they build the board, they are already accounting for subjective stuff like off the field/character/medical/need etc etc and that level of subjectivity in the board from the jump puts you further away from true BPA before the draft even starts.

 

Fair take then.

Pure BPA is subjective to begin with.  How do compare different positions?  Is this OG better than that CB?

I agree if we have three guys all rated as a 75 that you pick need but if one is a 80 and one is a 70 you always pick the 80 so long as you can play him. QBs don't count in this equation

We take a d end in the first two rounds or a lb. Need a d tackle or two, secondary help and a wr.  Landon Jackson is a guy I see us picking and I’m not a fan

Agreed, which is why you need DTs that can collapse the pocket from the middle if your edges are playing contain

LB at 30 maybe?

[SinceThe70s]

Doomsday scenario is for unforeseeable circumstances the Bills make no picks whatsoever.

 

Are we still a playoff team? Superbowl contender?

[EmotionallyUnstable]

RB @ 30

Trading Cook. I’d feel pretty empty if that goes down this weekend 

[BobbyC81]

Beane tries to make a trade prior to their first down pick and lets the time run out for their pick and  Kansas City takes the player they wanted.

We can't afford to pick DE high to only play 2 downs this year...unless they feel it's a slam dunk he'll be a 3 down player next year.

Beane moving up. He moved up for Allen, yes, but he also moved up for Tremaine Edmunds, Cody Ford, Kaiir Elam, and Dalton Kincaid, passing on, respectively, Jaire Alexander, AJ Brown, Tariq Woolen, and Sam LaPorta. When he gets an itchy trigger finger, bad things tend to happen. So if I see "TRADE! Bills send their fourth-round pick (56 overall) to the LA Rams for their first-round pick (26 overall)," I will turn off the computer and go to bed, knowing for sure that they a) just burned a 4th round pick for a player who would have been there at 30 or even later; or b) they did so and picked a lemon to boot.
