    I'm on the trade up for Brian Thomas Jr train. It would take this years 1st, 2nd and next year's 2nd (or 3rd) to move up to get Thomas and this year's 3rd. 

     

    So we'd lose one pick next year and have the same number this year. The 2nd pick would be coming in the 80's instead of 60. 

     

    Of course a number of other teams might have him as the clear #4 and drive the price up for him. 

    I'm on board with trading up for him myself but I don't know about it for all that. If he's still around like 17 to 22ish.... I'm definitely looking into it.

    How do you explain a tip 5-10 defense since he got here with undrafted guys and mid to late round picks all over on the defense then. Guys like Jackson and Benford starting, guys like Bernard starting. It’s a lack of scheme and game plan in the front and it’s always been a problem for him. Even thought he’s had multiple early rd picks and mod to high priced FAs at the positions. 

    And this 

    They've gotten the benefit of playing a weak division and gems such as Skylar Thompson and late round rookie QBs.

    So...Xavier Worthy. His speed is tantalizing,  and his production was very good against big boy competition.  Of course the question is size. He seems comparable to Devonta Smith. Remember all the questions about his size and durability when he came out. What do people think about Worthy as compared to Smith? Would he be worth the risk at 28? The thought of what he could do on bombs from Josh...

    Imo while Smith has produced and can play in the league....his light weight is definitely a concern and a hindrance at times. Bottom line: a high end #2 is the ceiling.

    I believe Beane will create picks. There's no way he goes from 60 to 128 sitting on his hands. This draft is huge in establishing a good solid core on both sides.

     

    Since there are a few teams with more than one pick in rds. 2 and 3, I can see him selling next years 1st to create another 2nd and 3rd.

     

    Latu/Murphy  28

    Sweat   41

    Burton  60

    Walker  88

    Smith   128

     

     

    I would be thrilled with the picks!

    The Bills recent draft history from rounds 4-7 since 2017 under the McD and then eventually McBeane has been pretty good.

     

    Milano, Taron Johnson, Gabe Davis, Dane Jackson and Benford all ended up being productive to great starters drafted in rounds 4-7. They also found Wyatt Teller and Ray Ray McCloud both of whole went on to have good careers elsewhere. In addition to those players the Bills also found solid role players in Siran Neal, Tyler Bass and Hamlin.

     

    That being said there were about 15 misses in those rounds in that same time period. So it’s a total crap shoot.

    Right. I mean I like our chances, but it absolutely is no sure thing. Well just like every round, you never know really. All I do know is I think landing a Blackmon and then Johnson at DT would really allow the draft to really just come to us and have no unnecessary reaches.

    Beane was too cheap …Edwards obviously going to bet on himself to get paid more next year ..

     

    They have now signed both Rapp and Edwards to less money than what they paid Hyde last year … 

     

    They could easily still make another add if they wanted from Free Agency and probably still be some margin under what they paid Poyer and Hyde last year 

     

     

    I would still try hard for one more veteran that way they would only have to draft a safety if he was the clear BPA. I think this draft has multiple guys who would benefit from only playing specials for a year then taking over for Rapp/Edwards in 2025.
