Welp.... nevermind somebody ruined it. Who was it? Show yourself. Who just had to be “that guy”

Why would beane do all this work over the last year for the long game only to stop at 12 and not guarantee they get their man. Dont be foolish, OP.

Wow. As of right now between the Taylor and Glenn votes the score is 170+ for yes and ZERO for no! Has the board ever been so united?!?!

beane has done too much work to accumulate all those picks and not get "the guy".... 12 still doesn't guarantee one of the top guys. i would bet he's wanting to see this thing through and GUARANTEE their man. i'm banking on another move.

somebody just text me that they could hypothetically get us to #4 based on whatever chart.... but teams are gonna be bidding for those spots so its gonna take a bit more capitol i bet.

wouldn't say it was an overwhelming success. i would say it was a moderate one. they took another teams unproven backup and then.... he won slightly more than he lost we never broke the bank for him made the playoffs and then turned said backup into the 1st pick of the 3rd round. which could potentially be ammo for the future franchise guy. i'm cool with it.

If you honestly think his biggest mistake, after making the playoffs and still having a ton of ammo for a future qb, is keeping Taylor i honestly think you might have been further gone than what I thought. Geez man. For me it was passing on Watson at 10. Even still I would have wanted them to keep Taylor and let them compete. We now know Watson’s obviously would have taken over. And fyi... the bills make the playoffs becuz they did what they needed to do through all 16 games and the ravens didn’t. Why do people try to dampen the playoffs whenever they have to make arguments against Taylor? It’s lame and just not a very good look. One other positive with Taylor being gone is the board won’t have to deal with irrational over the top views and takes about the qb position for a little while.

yes. i believe 100% they will trade up and get whomever they deem fit. and i absolutely love that, even after a playoff birth, we still have the ammo to do that without crippling future drafts. Its called having your cake and eating it too. bills fans deserve it.... and it tastes ohhhh soooo good.

I voted Rosen because I think the colts are open for business, Beane is on a warpath and I think they may honestly wanna go with a rookie right off the bat and he’s apparently is the most refined at the moment. My my man-crush wants mayfield though.

Biggest take away I got from this thread being bumped is it totally reinforces why I think teddy is arguably the worst poster around. Who searches out a thread from 2 months ago after a player is now gone just to say he sucks? So lame.

I don’t get how it’s being celebrated by some more than the playoffs. I just can’t get that. Becuz for me Taylor was gone regardless. It wasnt some big event. It was just gonna happen. It was necessary. It not an exciting moment

It’s a stretch. Unlike some I saw that fact that we could make the playoffs and STILL do what was needed at the qb position this offseason. I dunno why that’s so hard to grasp.

Or I could enjoy the playoffs in year one of a new staff after the roster was gutted and realize we still had ammo to go get the franchise. there’s merit in getting into the playoffs and the experience it provides. It’s lost on some people I guess. I was excited for the playoffs and still trusted they would be in position to do what was needed for the qb position.... those 2 things aren’t mutually exclusive.

I don’t totally disagree with that ftr.

Really interesting take. And I see your point. I hadn’t thought about this.

I’m always the optimist so I’m trusting they hit on their rookie but this makes me a bit nauseous

You’re probably right. I’m overemphasizing a select few.

So it’s not ridiculous that this guy comes on and posts about how excited he is today about this trade but showed slim to none when the bills made the postseason? Right on. The bills havin a new qb isn’t gonna make this guy or the others like him anymore likable.

Gordon played the last 5 games of last year and averaged nearly 70 yds a game with kizer behind center. He’s gonna be just fine.

I think it was just the fact that they had soooo much ammo in the draft they felt they could go a little higher than his value. I mean they made that move, Instantly found a steady qb and STILL have a ton of early picks. I think they probably knew they were giving up a bit too much. And honestly.... after how gordon looked last year and now having Landry I bet you think thought If they nabbed a dude like Taylor they could really start winning some games. When the draft is over he’s gonna have the most talented offense he’s ever had around him.

Be happy. I’m happy we got a good deal. But it’s sad to me that I’m seeing more celebration as a result of the trade yesterday from a good amount of people on here than I saw back in January.

Speaking of adorable, OP.... What’s adorable(I actually mean pathetic) is a certain handful of posters celebrating yesterday more than the playoff birth back in January. All the the same people that are jumping for joy were the annoying downers 2 months ago making every excuse in the book as to why the bills made the postseason and how it wasn’t a big deal. Its honestly pretty pathetic. ....all that being said it was a really good move. 1st pick of the third? Wow. Never thought he would draw that.

my god there are some amazing plays in there. if only he could have snuck some consistency in there.... onward and upward.

1st pick of the 3rd is freaking AWESOME. i figured it'd be in the 5th round range. and we free up space? i'm sure they have a plan in place for the position so this is just an awesome deal. rock solid move.

i have a buddy that follows the packers very close and he was VERY distraught when they didn't bring hyde back. so i was optimistic about that one. but ya, who knew poyer would come in and do what he did? honestly... by the end of the season poyer may have put together a better overall year.
