At the end of the movie Wallace allowed the King's men to chop him into little bits. Sound familiar? I'm glad I played some small part in helping you dodge that.
Realizing that 2+2+2 is never going to equal 117 is not being cowardly. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I want a QB!!!! isn't really cowardly per se, but it is a bit childish and tiresome.
While I agree that Braveheart was a great movie and I agree that simple math makes a trade up almost impossible, I think the OP ignores the opposing side. They also lean on a cinematic great for their advanced logic. His name is Larry, the Duke of Wiring and he says the Bills must Git'r Done.
I agree it s ridiculous but seek to clarify your position.
For years you bristled at any criticism of Murray while you have been one of the people whining about Beane not defying the laws of math.
Are you saying the OP hasn't gone far enough?
Lol. If you believe Beane hasn't been looking closely at QB prospects since 5 minutes aft he got here I don't know what to say.
The Colts, knowing the Jets want a QB effectively moved below only the Browns and Broncos. Two spots for three second round picks. With the Bills the effective cost would have been 8 spots. Beat us to the punch lololololololol. Be realistic.
Never said we shouldn't try. I'm just realistic about the chances while you're whining illogically.
Whaaaaaaaaaah
The OP is risk averse and entitled to his opinion. You are entitled as well. But over and over you keep saying if we don't get a "top QB" that Beane has made a mistake. Reality is that there simply isn't a realistic opportunity at all. Denying reality = Whaaaaaaaaah
Some are risk averse, but there is also the matter of the real world.
Browns - QB
Giants -QB . 5% chance of trade and 0% chance of moving to 12.
Jets - QB
Browns - They have a million picks already. Why pass up Chubb or Barkley? Slim at best.
Broncos - If Barkley is there they don't trade and they select him or a QB.
Colts - Emphatically stated they do not want out of top 10.
Bucs- The first realistic chance and it would be the 4th QB......maybe.
Risk averse or risk willing, reality says Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa is all you'll be able to say after draft night.
If the Bills took a guy generally considered by ESPN to be "second tier", let's just say Rudolph for example, and he turned out to be the best guy in the group, would you still be mad we didn't trade up?
The chances of these people ever being held to account is only slightly better than finding aliens. The difference is there isn't any sitcom math. So unlike aliens existing, the prosecutions are technically possible. But it isn't just whether they committed crimes or getting a willing prosecutor. Anyone daring to do anything will have their life torn to shreds by Comey and the gang's friends in the press and in the hill. The hype of this "book tour" ought to tell you that.
Newsflash:. The Bills made the playoffs last year. The Giants finished 31st in a 32 team league. I can buy that the Bills have a lot if work to do, but you guys act like they are further away than any other team in the league. They are not.
