Some of these already leaked a few months back, but now they are out in the wild. Thoughts?

I have a sneaking suspicion that if Odunze is there at 9 we see the Bengals make a huge push, and they package Higgins in the move.
Bengals get pick 9: Odunze
Chicago gets: Picks 18, 80, and Tee Higgins
Chicago now has some serious firepower for their new QB, they have cap space next year to give an extension, and they get some capital to shore up their OL. Bengals get younger and cheaper and keep their pantry of elite weapons loaded up.

It would be very “if the NFL was scripted” if we not only won the SB, but hosted the Texans to get there and Diggs could finally watch the Bills celebration in person… as his new team limps into the locker room broken hearted. Revenge for 2019 and for the Diggs drama all in one. Oh, and we beat the Chiefs in a Divisional playoff game with a blowout.
sooooo script writers, if you’re reading this, you’re welcome and please do not deviate from my notes here. You can repay me with a Bills SB championship or two over the next 3 seasons

My appetite for trading up starts at #9. If Odunze is still there I'd pull the trigger. Next year's 1st, next year's 2nd (from Houston), maybe both of our 4ths this year. Chicago only has 4 picks in the entire draft, they are a prime trade up candidate.
The 2nd we got from Houston actually belonged to Minnesota. If we have to include a 2 we would be better sending ours over and keeping that one if possible as it could be a very early pick. -
John Cena? Idk, I’ve never seen that guy

Are we finally seeing the result of parents not letting their kids play football in their youth?
I think it’s more to do with the fact these kids were probably freshmen when COVID hit and it may have stunted their growth a bit, especially at some of the smaller schools

I’m pretty high on Cole Bishop, but at 58? Not sure I like that, but he is my favorite among the remaining options.

Thank you for your FOOTBALL contributions, and nothing more.

I will miss them, in that I wanted that core of players to be the ones to get the job done. Poyer, Hyde, Tre, Morse… all instrumental in helping get us out of the gutter and being real contenders. Say what you will about their injuries or their slowing down a bit with age, but these dudes were a part of a really genuinely good core of dudes.
I think they, like anyone, are replaceable and also think that it was time for many of them. Hyde I didn’t want to see injured again, I didn’t want Morse to get another concussion, Tre… talk about just bad luck for a guy who was an absolute beast when healthy before these injuries, and Poyer is still capable of playing but he’s on his way out of the league sooner rather than later.
Diggs? I think we miss him a bit, but I also think he’s been a distraction and has vanished when it comes down to playoff-time football. There’s a very petty part of me that wants us to win this year just so he can see we always has it in us, and he can watch on as Josh gets it done without him.

A couple of fun reads for analytics associated with the class
https://www.pff.com/news/fantasy-football-analytical-sleepers-2024-nfl-draft-wide-receivers
I was high on Franklin heading into the combine, wavered on that a bit, but after his pro day I really feel like he does so much so well. He’s not the best guy in the draft overall, but he might be the best option for what the Bills are looking for. I’d like to entertain a possible trade back from 28 into the top of the 2nd round to recoup a 3rd or early 4th, but he would be my target between 33-37. -
I am deceased.

So, obviously this all depends on how the draft picks fall, but for the sake of argument I am assuming that we are not willing to trade anywhere above 20. In fact, if there is a run on WR I am predicting we consider trading back to pick up a late 3rd. You obviously also need a willing trade partner, so none of this is guaranteed.
all that being said, I would look to the mid-30s for trade back options, specifically Arizona or Washington.
AZ I would look for 35 & 94 for 28Washington has a lot of picks in the 2nd and 3rd, so I’d shoot for 36 & 74 for 28, 128, and 160. Compensation is close enough, plus they get a shot at a 5th year extension for whoever they sign so we may be able to offer a lower pick for that reason.
Again, based on how the draft falls, I’d likely go for someone like Franklin or McConkey (2 players the Bills have met with multiple times) at pick 35-36. Then unless someone falls significantly I wouldn’t touch WR in the draft until the 5th round. We have too many other needs to address and have positions we need to get younger at. In the 5th I would consider someone like Luke McCaffrey, and possibly Cornelius Johnson if I was inclined to absolutely get a WR in the 5th. I have him as a 5th/6th prospect, closer to 6th but he should be gone before pick 200 in my opinion.
Curtis Samuel
Franklin/McConkey
Khalil Shakir
Mack Hollins
McCaffrey/Johnson

I’m going to start by saying, once again, thank you to Stef for his contributions on the field and in the community.
That being said, it’s as good a time as any to close that chapter and start a new one. The narrative surrounding the Bills and Josh Allen is that he needed Stef to become who he is, and there may be some truth to that, but Josh now has the luxury of experience and commanding an offense. He has always played with a chip on his shoulder since high school, and this is just more fuel to the fire: he has an opportunity to prove to the world he is an elite QB no matter who he throws to. Diggs was a major force early last year, but fell off when Brady assumed OC duties.
What will the narrative be when Josh performs well without #14? What about when we play Houston this year? What will it be when he finally gets a win over KC in the playoffs, or hangs one on Cincy? What will it be when he wins his first MVP or Super Bowl?
Give Allen the pen and let’s see what he writes for himself.

Regardless of whatever behind the scenes stuff played out, and whatever his feelings are about the team, I’ll say this:
Thank you Stef.

AB has about 6 brain cells left. He should not waste them on X lol

I could see a player like Tanor Bortolini in the 4th at center, or Drake Nugent in the 5th/6th range. I don’t think we have it as a need, but if the talent is there it could be hard to pass up.

This is from a talent perspective of possible options we have available at our range of picks. Not necessarily an endorsement for taking these players, or in this order.
Day 1:
WR Brian Thomas Jr
WR AD Mitchell
DE Chop Robinson
CB Kool-Aid McKinstry
S Cooper DeJean
C Jackson Powers-Johnson
Late Day 1 / Early Day 2 (trade back options)
WR Ladd McConkey
WR Troy Franklin
WR Xavier Worthy
WR Keon Coleman
Day 2:
DT Kris Jenkins
DT Ruke Orhoroho
DE Adisa Isaac
DT Braden Fiske
DE Bralen Trice
WR Xavier Leggette
S Cole Bishop
C Cedric Van-Pran
WR Johnny Wilson
DE Marshawn Kneeland
CB Mike Sainistril
DT Maason Smith
IDEALLY: We get “our guy” at 28. However, I am a bigger fan for trading back this year to recoup a 3rd rounder because I feel like there are so many WR who can contribute if there are still a few left, or so many WR will go early forcing some really good players to fall. It takes 2 to tango, so you need a trade partner willing to move up, a player worth someone moving up for, and good compensation. If we traded to the mid-30s with someone like Arizona and got pick 90 I think that’s too good an offer to pass up, provided we are confident with who will be available later on.
I listed more than I planned on, but these players are the ones I like the most in the top-100 pick range.
-
I did this one with the intention of not trading back the first 2 rounds and seeing the estimated cost (per pfn) to move up from 128 to the early 90’s. Now, in no reality does Kris Jenkins last to 92, but I was considering a trade up to about 98ish range for Maason Smith that would maybe change compensation a small amount (maybe 144 instead of 133 or something)
I have a feeling if we walked out of the draft like this we should give Beane the key to the city we gave to TO lol

Things aren't going well in Cincinnati

Predicting the Bengals try to package Higgins to Chicago to move to #9 if the right player is available still.
Chicago gets: Higgins, #18, #80
Cincy gets #9.
