  1. Yet those guys were never injured. Those guys are not statuesque. They could move in the pocket. They could get rid of the ball at just the right time. Drew Bledsoe was statuesque. That's not what we want.
  2. Been feeling this way too. 0% chance Giants stay at #2 and select any player that doesn't play the QB position. I think Goff and Carr will go down similar roads. Good QBs but never true franchise guys. But top half of the league (top 18-14 type QBs). With the occasional great year sprinkled in.
  3. I know Tre' is great but #2 seems a bit high. But then again I don't know how the other teams fared overall either other than that the Saints killed it in the draft. It will all comedown to if we can get a franchise QB in this draft I guess.
  4. I think ultimately the Mario signing was a good one for Buffalo. His stats in his first three seasons with Buffalo were pretty much exactly what he averaged in his best seasons. In that sense, we got exactly what we should have expected. The big mistake or problem was switching the defense in year four when Rex came in. Mario may have been on the decline by then anyway but that switch in scheme certainly didn't do him any favors.
  5. Regardless of where we go from here the Glenn trade is a good move up. It stands on it's own as a good trade.
  6. Because no matter what we offered we couldn't offer Colts #6. We would have had to swing a deal for four first.
  7. Probably so Eli can start a couple more seasons before Allen is ready. The other rookies would likely start much sooner.
  8. I suggest Bills inquire about the cost to land Brady since he is on the market. Hard to know what day is Sunday when it's the off-season.
  9. Same here but i see some pretty clear differences in the two. Wasn't Johnny Football a star coming out of HS? Mr. Football and all. Where as Baker had to walk on to his college team. One took his talents for granted. The other worked hard to develop his skills and earn the starting job.
  10. Nothing to do with wealth. Poster I was quoting was holding the desire to be famous against Mayfield and him not sticking around or being all in with Buffalo. The same can at least be said and held against Rosen as a possible negative.
  11. We need this guy in a Bills uniform. He's my #1 QB now. I was torn between him and Darnold but the more I think about Darnold, the more I think he is going to be a slightly better Jay Cutler in the NFL (consistency issues). Which isn't bad but still isn't good enough. The guy is from Texas and played at Oklahoma. Plus, with social media these days anyone can become a star anywhere. If they desire to become one. That stuff isn't a big concern for me. I'd be more worried about a guy like Rosen in that aspect for sure.
  12. I think they stay at #4 and get either Chubb or Barkely. One of the two is guaranteed to be there. Browns had a lot of draft selections last year and again have a lot this year. I don't see the value in them gaining more picks. They need quality over quantity in this draft.
  13. He likely does in this mock since he has Arizona trading up to #4 to take Rosen. The key in this mock is that both Giants and Denver pass on QB prospects. I'm not sure how likely it is that both pass on QBs.
  14. If the Giants stay at #2 and draft a DE rather than trade out and receive a bounty of picks then they are truly dumb. Giants will take a QB or trade the pick. That has to be it. Only other explanation is the Browns rather send Rosen to an NFC team than a AFC team. Kind of hedge their bets in-case Rosen becomes a franchise guy.
  15. Just seems like too many hoops to jump through with no guarantee you actually get #2. What if we jump up to #4 but the Giants don't want to deal? Does Beane have a 3rd or 4th quaterback he is okay trading up for?
  16. Good God those numbers look bad for Allen. Dude will either be the biggest bust ever drafted on potential alone or the biggest steal ever. QBs will go 1 and 2. Probably 1,2,3 actually. Just looks unlikely it will be the Bills jumping up to #2.
  17. I'm feeling the same way. #2 will be either QB or Barkley. Giants could stay at two and take either. But staying at #2 and drafting Chubb doesn't make sense considering the haul of picks they could get for #2. Chubb may be a great player but would he be better than #12, #22 and a 2019 1st round pick? Also, I could see the Giants trading with Denver to #5. That still puts them ahead of the Colts. In that situation they potentially land a 20191st round pick (steep price for Denver to pay but if the bidding gets hot it could happen) and still land Chubb at #5.
  18. I wouldn't call the Eagles until we have used both first round picks. We shouldn't give up a first for Foles. I also see this as less likely since we have AJ now.
  19. Does Rudolph compare well with Dereck Carr? I wouldn't mind rolling the dice with someone with similar talents as Carr.
  20. The 2016 draft and 2018 draft are not really comparable because 2016 had only two viable first round QB options. Goff and Wentz went one and two overall. I really don't see either of those guys as better prospects than Darnold and Rosen. Throw in Allen, Mayfield and Jackson and this QB class could be the perfect one to not trade a ton of picks for a franchise QB.
  21. Yeah. Even the price for the Jets to move from #3 to #2 to ensure they get the second QB off the board is going to be extremely pricey as well IMO. That's if the Giants are all in at Barkley and or okay with dealing with the Jets. I would expect it to be much more than what the Bears gave up to the 49ers last year. I have a feeling Beane has an interest in only Darnold and Rosen. Just pure speculation on my part. But if that is the case he has no desire to get to #4 or even #3 before the draft. He'll have to wait and see where Darnold or Rosen end up and if one is available at #4 then you make a deal for #4 if you can. Or just keep working the phones with Cleveland and NY Giants for #1 or #2.
  22. Those are some really good points. Jets are certainly all over the map this off-season. I think the Bridgewater signing is the most puzzling as you pointed too. At the end of the day though, the Jets might land a franchise QB which would suck. I'm really hoping they draft Allen and don't land Rosen or Mayfield. Mayfield in particular seems like a guy that could shine and play with swagger in New York. I have no desire to see Mayfield grab his nuts twice a year as he walks off the field in victory over the Bills. In that scenario the Broncos trade up one spot with the Browns to ensure they land Mayfield and the Browns move back one spot and still get the guy they wanted all along in Barkley. That would be a terrific hall for the Browns. And with so many picks on day two and three of the draft I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Browns trade back into the first round to go for quality over quantity. Could be looking at the Browns selecting three players in the first round.
  23. It was going to cost a team a King's Ransom to get to two regardless of this recent trade. That was always the case. IF the Giants don't take a QB themselves they will likely shake down the Jets for a couple more draft picks just to move one spot up. Colts did the right thing. They are guaranteed their guy still at six and picked up three second round picks. McBeane could have offered 3000 points in draft picks and it still wouldn't have been enough because of the simple fact that the Colts would be at 12 and they would miss out on their target.
  24. Have had a gut feeling we somehow end up with the 1st overall too. Could be a draft day trade from #2 to #1. The difficulty will be getting to #2 though before the draft.
  25. Not necessarily true. Beane might only like two QBs at the top of the draft. If that is the case you can't trade up to #3. Jets are basically telling everyone that they have a top 3 that they like regardless of the order the QBs are taken. I still think we got to try to get to #7 or #8 or possibly #4 to make trading with the Giants for #2 more attractive. Giants might not want to fall all the way to #12 regardless of what we are offering to give up.
