    The price is going to be too steep to trade within the top 10, maybe even the 11-20 range........i could see a move up a couple of spots within 20, but i think he'll stay at 28, let the board fall to him and carry on......IMO.

    There are only 2 options I like; stand fast or trade down. Wouldn’t be against having two 2’s and a third.

    I would rather flip edge and safety.  Go edge at 60 and safety at 163.  I do not see much difference in the safety prospects as a whole to draft one at 60.  Im not depending on Von to bounce back at his age.  I think you need to add guy ready for snaps immediately.  Edwards and Rapp is an ok pairing. Im not sure there is a safety in the class better than either.  Not looking for elite traits for the position the need to invest a day 2 pick seems unnecessary.    

    Pressure on the QB always makes the defensive backfield better

    Well, just my opinion.

     

    I think it is Josh Allen's time to take over the reigns of this team and to me, he doesn't need elite weapons. He simply needs receivers who can hang onto the balls most importantly.

     

    Also of importance is being able to fill out the roster. The Bills need depth at almost every position, with starting potential, and the best way to do that is to trade down and acquire multiple picks, ala what SF did in the 1986 draft (look up that draft to see what I mean).

     

    Beane's a big baller though and I wouldn't be surprised if he is in love with getting his hands on Nabers, MHJ or Odunze for Josh Allen. 

    I would much rather give Allen some weapons. This is not to say we don't need depth, but there will be a top WR when we pick. I just cannot see us not addressing this need early in the draft and not giving JA some tools to accompany Samuel, Shakir, Kincaid, and Cook. Right now, this is it, and not how I would like to go into the season.

    Maybe he could be kind of like the TE version of what Cordarrelle Patterson?


    I’d like to see if Joe can find more creative ways to get the ball in Knox’s hands so he can  show some of that RAC ability and power. 

     

    I think the way to do that is line him up in the backfield more. He’d be an effective weapon catching passes out of the backfield and this is just my opinion, but I would like to see what he could do with some traditional carries.

     

    Not saying he wouldn’t still be a top 2 inline tight end for the most part as I think he’s one of the better blocking tight ends in the league. 
     

    To me it seems he just has a lot of wasted movement in his routes and I think it’s easy for DBs to cover.  On the flip-side though he has  so much playmaking ability with ball in his hands.

     

     

     

     

    Ive heard it all now…

    Sure, if dropped passes were a cool gadget. 

    And slowness…

    even then you aren’t looking for a diamond in the rough. You are looking for a guy that maybe knows your terminology ideally, perhaps has any reps running an nfl huddle or calling a play 

     

    like we would go down a list of Barkley and Kyle allen, anyone we had in camp, guys that played under Brady or his peers running the same system, then the Joe flaccos of the world before getting to the eagles day 3 pick on the practice squad randomly that we kinda liked but couldn’t play in a viable way this Sunday 

    Totally agree here!!!

    i think he’d have to look real good in pre season to have any chance that another team is poaching him from the squad to put on their 53. Most are pretty entrenched with the top 2, if not 3.
     

    to have 3 be a late round pick that doesn’t know your system because you added him late means you saw something in 4th quarter preseason play that you didn’t in scouting 

    Until injuries strike 😉

    I'm not going to start retroactively hating diggs and saying he's not great lol

     

    If you're actually forcefully shopping somebody you're never getting your actual return that you deserve

     

    This hasn't nothing about if people view him as a number one or not if you're getting rid of him

     

    Randy Moss went for a fourth not because that's what the league viewed his talent as

     

    Diggs was easily still one of the best wide receivers in the AFC combined with his connection with Josh made him even better

     

    He's one of the best receivers in the last 30 years to put on a bills uniform you guys are crazy if you're going to crap on him on the way out

     

    When he never said anything bad about Buffalo or the bills while here

    The ugly side of the business I guess

    Anyone who doesn't believe they at least vetted this idea with Josh first is kidding himself...

     

    Beane has a plan and keeping his golden boy happy is a big part of that.

     

    Absolutely! Josh is smart and probably said “do whats best for the organization” or something to that effect. This second rounder is great leverage to have in this years draft or a nice piece for next years draft/trade etc…gotta think big picture here.

    Why did the Jewish people flee to Palestine after the holocaust? I understand it was under British rule at the time but still if it's so unsafe then why go there? Unless the plan was to colonize all along. Before the war in 1948 Jewish people and Muslims got along quite well they even babysat each other's children.  

    Ya know, the holocaust was an awful thing. All these wars are awful. I wish folks could just get along and live in peace. Perhaps we can get back to what you speak of. Wouldn’t that be a good start?

    When Isaac got to that land people were already there. And today’s Palestinians were once Jewish and Christian. And yes please stay out of the Arab world. The US destroyed it and continues to do so. 

    Im good with staying out of there. Have you been to the middle east? If we circle back to WW II one will find much of the devastation attributed to Hitler. We certainly had a hand in it as well. The local tribes also are equally as guilty.

    I have no clue what the death toll is. If you ask me it’s most likely best more than what they say. Just look at the place. 
     

    Wait… Hamas does horrible things? No way!!! 

    If you want to make the claim that Palestinians aren’t well represented in Syrian, Lebanon, Egypt and Jordan go right ahead. You’d be wrong though. My parents fled after the war in ‘67 and weren’t allowed back. This is why Arab nations aren’t taking them now. They eventually will though because that place is uninhabitable and they don’t have the means to rebuild. 

    That was the my intention at all. I think it is really sad what is going on in Gaza, Lebanon, and Israel. War sucks, I know this firsthand as I deployed to Iraq, Somalia, and Bosnia. I dont think going back and forth fixes the problems over there. This region has been fighting eachother for 2k years and it doesn’t seem it will let up anytime soon. Im sorry your family had to flee 😢.

    At it's core it's a turf war.  Israel was given land and Palestinians want it back/more.  No side will win.

    Israel was once there before the muslims. The middle east/arab world will never change. Best to just stay out of it. Easier said that done, unfortunately.

    Somewhere between picks 4-8 Roger walks up to the microphone and announces:  We have a trade.  Buffalo has traded (a small boatload of picks) to (team to be named) and is now on the clock.  And we get one of the top 3 rated WRs in the draft.

     

    Beane and McD have said they need to get more explosive.  And they’ll do that by getting more explosive with their moves to draft an explosive WR for Josh.

    The draft class this year is deep at WR. No way im giving up a ton of picks to move up that far. The value is not there, it won’t happen. If it does, I will gladly eat some crow.
