roscoeparrishfan Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Broncos | Team shopping two first-round picks Wed, 15 Mar 2006 08:23:37 -0800 Jeff Legwold, of the Rocky Mountain News, reports the Denver Broncos are shopping their two first-round picks in the 2006 NFL Draft in exchange for early picks in the 2007 NFL Draft. The team does not have much cap space left after paying out several up-front signing bonuses.
The Rev.Mattb74 ESQ. Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 How strong is next years draft class look. This years is supposed to be strong so maybe I would make that move. We could always then have ammo to trade up and get Ferguson, or tade down with #8 and get even more picks.
2003Contenders Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Imagine having two firsts, a high second, and two high thirds...
IDBillzFan Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 The Bills should make a deal with Denver, and Denver will quickly oblige if for no other reason than they know (as does every Bills fan known to mankind) that the 2006 Bills will likely bring them a top 3 2007 draft pick, if not the number one pick.
Lofton80 Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Intriguing but Ralph would have to pony up two first round contracts himself. Minnesota may be a dance partner as well. Childress indicated backup Brad Johnson would ascend to the starting role in 2006 but he hoped to acquire a young quarterback to develop for the near future. Childress also did not rule out packaging several draft picks -- they now own the 17th, 48th and 51st picks -- to move up in the first round and select one of the draft's three premier quarterbacks: USC's Matt Leinart, Texas' Vince Young and Vanderbilt's Jay Cutler. "You look at all those eventualities and see if you feel like there is something," Childress said.

Draft nothing but OL.....all FA should be OL....am I right??!?!!....AM I?
5 Wide Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Bridge-jumping season's started early this year, I see. 630452[/snapback] This must be what Maple Leafs forums must look like right about now

Maybe the defensive ends will be so put off by the lack of resistance they will blow by JP, Holcomb, McCown or whoever. Maybe...but I kind of f-ing doubt it.
JoeF Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Bridge-jumping season's started early this year, I see. 630452[/snapback] I am waiting for the new Peace Bridge..if I am going to jump its not going to be off some rickety old rusty structure...

It suits the need for drama. I sure hope the Bills play hard and display effort, and win a few exciting games this year. Maybe beat Miami and steal one from NE. I hope I get to see JP grow and become the QB we want him to be. If none of these things happen, I may be disappointed, for a week at a time, even, but it won't ruin my life. People need some perspective.

No second-class suicide for me!" That's the spirit.

I just want to see us field a good competitive team for a change. I guess that makes me less of a Bills fan than you. And thanks for the "perspective"..I needed that.

I'm just stating that the fact we haven't signed every other team's franchise player 5 days into free agency does not concern me. It's the impatient "win now" mentality that caused the total backfire last year and sent the team spiralling instead of developing towards something better, sooner.

My patience perhaps is thinning. We're looking for the same result, I just hope it's sooner than later. No hard feelings. Go BUFF!!
stinky finger Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 No hard feelings. Go BUFF!! 630504[/snapback] I would extend this to tennesseeboy as well.......pardon my prickiness.
RuntheDamnBall Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 hey, I got snarky too. Group hug. Now let's sign some D-linemen that can rip Tom Brady to pieces.
