BTJ at pick #20 or Nabers at pick #10? Let’s just say all other trade pieces being equal, Nabers costs a 1st in 2025, and Thomas costs #60. If you had to choose, which way are you going?

It’s a draft thread, but one I haven’t seen.. a minor topic considering. And we only have five more days to make all this crap. I’d like to hear some opinions on the current OBD occupying regime’s off the board” players. Are there any players of significance this draft? Say top 120 or so players that the Bills won’t touch? Or that any team definitely won’t touch? I really haven’t heard of any.. I would have expected the Bills to pass on Jalen Carter last year if they had a top ten pick. I think OBD has a conservative “off the board” board. It is somewhat illogical to me that a player would definitely be off your board, unless it’s some very serious murderous type charges. Just saying. How conservative do you think the Bills are with that board, or do you think they are mid pack, or even in the more opportunistic tier of NFL teams? Hypothetical,, Bills are wheeling and dealing to trade up to draft BTJ and simultaneously TMZ is reporting Nabers is doing some shady stuff.. not suspension worthy, or DB, but I don’t know.. guns..?? Where does OBD draw that line..? Nabers falls because of TMZ stuff, is he off the Bills board..? Even at #20?? I’m only using Nabers because he’s the guy I want. Not because I think he does shady stuff. I don’t have a clue.

MHJ is silky smooth. He can flow anywhere on the field, catches everything that hits his hands. I have this weird feeling that he’s going to get knocked around and leg injuries will slow him down. He’s long. Big target, for defenses. Those hybrid LBs like Bernard steamrolling the kid when he’s stretched out. Also, the expectation cannot be any higher. I read it here.. he’s a Hall of Famer and/or a perennial All-Pro (HoF’er). I know I’m just digging here, but IF the fairy tale doesn’t happen, what would be the reasons..? Not talent, not pedigree, not mental, not diva. I’m staking Nabers, in a way that he just won’t g.a.s. He’ll play so hard and so fast that he’s going to scare defenses. To me, he looks like he has an extra hot fire burning and wants to be the best. He just looks mean out there.

Yes, I bet they are. Nabers. That’s my guy, two days before the draft. I think he’ll be the best WR. Monsterish good. I’d like one of those types.

He’s white???

Easy, you draft a raw project and make him startable for an entire season, eventually. The Bills are proven right tackles developers. I know, draft the replacement with a pick you get in the Brown trade.

Could you guys convince me that McConkey is this good? He seems to be LOVED by the board, with no negatives by my account. What makes him such a strong WR in general? If he’s good, he’s good, and of course he’d be a hit for the Bills, even if he isn’t a WR1, which we’d still be looking for if drafted.

I could be dead wrong, all speculation, but doesn’t it also seem that Brown will be forever indebted to play his ass off for JA17 & the Bills. He doesn’t seem like the type of guy, given his current Bills journey, who will jump ship and go where he’ll make an extra dollar somewhere else. Jmo

I don’t think the price is out of Beane’s league if he wants to trade into the teens range. It should be a second. And throw in a fourth. All depends on where BTJ falls. Beane really needs to know where his potential landing spots could be #10-28, and jump in.

With the 28th pick the Vikings select the best WR in the draft.

We all expect a playoff birth. The Bills have an impressive regular season and win 12+ games but are playoff fakers and even lose ANOTHER home playoff game. or The Bills figure it out late (again) and go into the playoffs playing well, win a game and compete in another (again), which would be a surprise and give some hope for the following season. Which scenario would you prefer?

Don’t think so. The offense has a major hole to fill. Feeling like one step forward, two steps back right now. Hope that changes on draft day 1. The defense isn’t any better. The kicker STINKS. I’m not sure how we’re better next next than last, when we had a shot to beat KC.

How is this not a given. Every word posted here is an opinion 🤣

Beane traded away 150 targets under contract, and he has a plan. The Bills will draft a WR with their first pick. The Bills will pick a WR at 1.28, or move up to pick a WR. They are not trading back to draft a WR. So they aren’t trading back. What Beane does with picks in 4th and 5th rounds is how this draft will be remembered. Whatever Beane decides to do with these picks, they will have a MAJOR impact on this team for years to come. Pick #60 can be BPA for DLine and defensive backfield. Two more WRs picks in R4 and R5.

If you didn’t have “LeG” in your handle, I woulda blown this off as another looooong shot
