    Is Cook worth it?

    If the Bills trade Cook, yes they need another RB.  And the draft would be the way to do it.  It doesn't have to be with one of their first three picks though.

     

    Yes, the Bills spent a pick last year on RB, and I bet they are glad they did now with the Cook dilemma in full bloom.

     

    This is not 2010, there are more games.  A team would be foolish to not have depth, especially at RB.

    I don't think Cook will get traded. What would he even be worth? A 4th rounder? Whatever team he goes to is going to have the same problem with extending his contract.

    The Bills just spent another pick on an RB last year and re-signed Ty Johnson.

     

    whether Cook is here or not, do we really need to draft ANOTHER running back? Am I back in 2010?

    No, we don't, unless it is late in the draft. They could easily draft a guy next year if they need to.

    Nobody is going to boo him. That would be ridiculous.

     

    No, he is not worth his asking price, especially as part of a running back by committee backfield, which is what the Bills employ.

    Which past receiver would you pick whose skill set this team needs most.

    TO was a goof, true.  Diggs was a malignancy. 

     

    Owens was on his last legs in Buffalo but still racked up 800+ with Trent and Fitz tossing.  He amassed 5265 yards over 4 years with Jeff Garcia. He then walked into Philly and picked up 1200 off McNabb immediately.  3600 in Dallas in 3 years.  He was huge, strong, fast and produced day 1 with each new team.  Rice is the GOAT and will never be topped.  Fitzgerald was one of the all time greats, but only has more yards because he played 2 more seasons and 44 more games than TO.  TO had32 more TDs and more yards per game.  Had he played as long as Fitzgerald he would easily be #2 all time.

     

    The OP started a thread about former Bills who would be best (in their prime we assume) for Josh.  It would be hands down a beast like TO.  Moulds, Reed, Evans (forget nearly all of the rest) don't come close other than as sentimental considerations.  Lofton may enter the conversation I would say.

     

    TO would be Josh's dream receiver--easily the best he has had or could ever have (Diggs is the only solid WR he has played with).

    I assumed it was the version of the Bills receiver that we had when they were with the team, so not TO because he wasn't in his prime here. But, each can interpret it how they will.

    We need a speed guy who can stretch the field, so I voted Evans. But Moulds, Reed, and Lofton are just better overall, so they would be better choices, honestly. But I feel like Evans met the spirit of the question more.

    I know he was not good on our squad at all, but give me a Percy Harvin type. And I'm happy...

    Without the migraines and injuries, though...

    Browns Bring Back Flacco

    My favorite thing about Flacco playing well in Cleveland two years ago was he sucked so bad for the Jets the 3 years prior to that 

    Yeah, and Rodgers kind of sucked too. I don't think QBs should be judged too harshly for sucking while playing there. Look at Geno Smith and Sam Darnold, too. Too Jets cast-offs who just signed $100 million contracts this offseason.

    What positions teams invest the most in (in the draft)

    No, I just used the straight draft info from Pro Football Reference

    The Bills surely are better at 5th and 6th round selections than other teams, right? Matt Milano, Khalil Shakir, Tylan Grable, Christian Benford, Damar Hamlin, Dane Jackson, and Wyatt Teller.

     

    All of those players range from at least decent (Hamlin and Jackson) up to great (Benford and Milano). There's nearly a hit in every draft. That seems really high to me. I know Grable hasn't really played yet, but all signs point to him being good, in my opinion.

    Trade-up for Travis Hunter

    This suggestion makes no sense and is completely irresponsible 

    I don't think it is just irresponsible. I don't think it may even be possible. For one thing, whatever team we trade with in the top five knows that all of our future draft picks are going to be low in the round.

     

    Basically, almost any other team can make a more favorable trade offer with draft picks. The Bills just can't get up that high, I don't think, unless they start trading away valuable players.
