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.
We all have biases. Yours shows with interpreting Gettleman's quote to mean they aren't drafting a QB. It doesn't. It just means he expects Eli to start for 2018 and probably 2019.
That post implies a team must absolutely agree with the crowd. What if the Bills believed in say Jackson AND Rudolph? It doesn't have to be one of them, I'm just using them as an example. What if they just as strongly believed that at least one of them will be there at 12? Should they still trade up to 2, lose all of those picks and take Rudolph there?
Probably four in top 5 whether the Bills trade up or not. Giants will go QB if they stay. They aren't trading down to 12 and trading down at all means they risk 50 years of fans b wording about whoever the Jets pick. Denver also very likely to pick QB. If they don't, I think they might trade. Could also see either way at 4 with Cle but they have so many picks that my guess is they stay put.
