Don't forget, KC could have made the same trade offer with one of the teams behind us too and not just wait until pick 32. I would say the odds of them getting him were pretty strong. But yes, as you know, I thought Dallas could be a place Worthy could go, but I also stated they should go OL, that was the smarter and better pick for them. So with Guyton being there still, I think they would have likely stayed the course and taken Guyton because if they wanted Worthy they wouldn't have risked missing out on him trading back behind our pick IMO. And they still could have taken Mitchell there too which would have added a lot of speed and explosion to the offense still as well. Personally, I don't think SF takes Worthy, he is not their style of player at all and they loved Pearsall from what I heard after the draft. Its possible, but I doubt he was going to go to SF.

There was never a "big splash" coming though, that was crystal clear that was not Beane's intent for anyone who actually watched Beanes press conference last week and listened to what he was saying. I posted it with takeaways and those takeaways came out spot on and matched everything he said last night in his press conference about round 1. https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/topic/254120-brand-beane-press-conf-418/ Now...Bills are armed rest of this draft (only had to move back 5 spaces) to really address some needs on this team, including ammo to move around the draft as he sees fit. Plus we have 3 picks in the first 2 rounds next year still and Beane still also has this coveted pick 33 that I am sure he is getting flooded with offers for if he sees an opportunity that makes sense to take. Beane killed it round 1. Not to mention, Worthy and Legette were the exact 2 WR's I had been very vocal about NOT drafting in round 1. Worthy is a terrible fit in Buffalo for what this roster needs and Legette has the most to work on to avoid being another Gabe Davis.

How do you not know Worthy still reaches KC if we don't trade with KC? Would you rather take some draft capital AWAY from KC and they take Worthy...or let KC get to KEEP that extra draft capital and STILL get Worthy? The only moronic thing here is that you don't seem to understand this fact that KC was getting Worthy regardless and we instead got their 3rd almost exactly replacing the one we used to trade for Rasul vs them still getting Worthy and keeping their 3rd. This fan base can be mind blowing on how they over react and don't see the bigger picture to things.

Yeah for real man, spot on

I would say this aged pretty well and I was pretty spot on. And here is Beane basically echoing the same things tonight after round 1 where he said he never even tried to trade up and no one called him either to try and initiate us to trade up. He even directly references wanting to get a 3rd back as I mentioned above and how now we have pick 95 and the pick we gave up for Rasul was like pick 91, so we essentially got that pick back. Like I keep saying, all you have to do is listen to Beane and pay attention, he is about as straight forward as they come. Or don't and rely on bogus twitter nonsense designed to create buzz and clicks...but I think you will find Beanes own words to be more accurate than anything on social media.

Hahahaha this thread was all for nothing. Beane said they never even tried to trade up and no one called them about seeing if they wanted to trade up either. I was pretty certain that we wouldn't make a big trade up, and was very vocal about it. But even I let the rumors get to me thinking well maybe they will even though it made no sense to me. Gotta love the rumor mill of utter nonsense and BS this time of year haha

Honestly, the best part of today for me was not taking Worthy or Legette. They were the only 2 WRs of the discussed ones for us in the first I didn’t want to take in the first. And not picking them and adding more draft ammo with multiple WRs still there I have graded above both Worthy and Legette, especially in fit for the Bills specifically, is awesome IMHO. I think McConkey, Mitchell, and Franklin are all better prospects for the Bills personally. To be totally honest, I would rather draft Ja’Lynn Polk over either Worthy or Legette too in terms of fit for the Bills.

They were getting him regardless if we didn't trade. At least this way we took away some of their draft capital.

THANK YOU. The reactions around here are so ridiculous. We clearly didn't want Worthy or we would have taken him. And if pass at 28 and take someone else, Worthy still makes it to KC. Unreal how this is puzzling for some people

I could see that. Gonna be a lot of options here at 33. Trade back again, lots of guys who make sense for us still on board. Go defense with someone like DeJean or Newton. Address OL with someone like JPJ Take one of the WR's people thought we would take at 28 possibly in: Mitchell, McConkey, or Franklin Then if we say take another position, will Beane sit at 60 and see who falls or maybe take someone like Walker there? Or will he be aggressive and move back up for one of those other WR's. Tomorrow will be fun to see how it unfolds...not real definite way I can see him play this right now. Lots of options.

This is what I said in the live draft thread...Cooper (I had at 32 before the trade down, nut now 33) and then they will take Walker at 60 if they don't trade back up. Or take Cooper and then package some picks and move back up from 60 and get McConkey, Mitchell, or Franklin. If we end the first 2 rounds with Cooper and one of the WR's everyone thought we would take at 28, that would be a great start to the draft.

Worthy 6/23 on deep balls. 5/21 on contested catches. He’s not that good of a deep ball guy. He fits KC short throw attack where they lead the league in throws near or behind the LOS which Worthy had 21% of his targets be screens and 40% of snaps in the slot. Worthy was always a terrible fit in Buffalo

Not saying this should happen, but I can see this happening: 32 - Cooper DeJean 60 - Tez Walker - If the Bills don’t trade up in 2nd for a WR.

Yea they need a corner, DL, and IOL the most

I’m guessing this is Barton or DL help for Bucs

I feel like Dallas goes Worthy or Barton here

Ok…I’m in the trade down with Commanders camp now

Noooooo

Jags I think go CB here - Arnold, Cooper, or Wiggins. If not, maybe Worthy. Should be corner though

Well it takes luck too

Yeah after year 1

He does. Shoulder issue that will need to be managed year 1. Considered minor though

It’s OL or Worthy for Dallas IMHO

I told everyone for the past week that Miami wasn’t going to take Worthy which would have been one of the dumbest picks in history
