  1. How can the New England Patriot's recover from Gronkowski's dead cap? I believe it is $10 Million. They should be $8 Million under the cap;https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-england-patriots/cap/

     

    They will have to cut 1-2 Vet's and only CB J. Johnson is worth cutting... Restructure... and no free agents. They have to draft for need (LBs/OLine/TE/DT). I hope other teams steal everyone!

     

    I see them trying to draft Baun or Kmet in round 2. I would love to take either one before they do.

    "Prosecutors have offered to drop the charges if Kraft and the men enter a diversion program for first-time offenders. That would include an admission they would be found guilty if their case went to trial, a $5,000 fine, 100 hours of community service and attendance in a class on the dangers of prostitution and its connection to human trafficking. They would also have to make a court appearance and be tested for sexually transmitted diseases."

    I see many guards and projected guards, defensive tackles and ends. Lots of big men. AJ Brown is my favorite receiver, so I like that.

    I hear ya. 

    I look at the Bills draft history under McDermott and Beane and I see a lot of trading back up into the 1st or 2nd to make sure they get guys they really like.

    They traded up in the 1st round last year for both Allen and Edmunds.

    They traded up in the 2nd round the year before that for both Zay Jones and Dion Dawkins.

    I expect them to trade back into the 1st or 2nd round (or both) AGAIN this year to ensure that they get some guys they've zeroed in on.

    Me, personally? I'm all for trading down. Give me as many lottery picks as I can get. I just don't know if the Bills will be in that mindset this year. I think, as I said, that its more likely they make a pick at 9 and then come back up into the 1st and/or 2nd to get more impact players. I do NOT expect them to draft 10 players regardless. I'd predict more like 6 or 7.

    I like your final statement. That would be amazing to get a DL that can pressure and someone they targeted higher  that dropped into the 20's that is "their guy".

    I just don't see WHY they would be in the mindset of trading down to get more picks. They already HAVE 10 picks and don't have enough roster spots even for those 10 players, let alone more than that. I think it's more likely that they pick a player at 9, and then use some of their extra picks to trade back into the late 1st or back into the 2nd from the 3rd. 

    I see your point, however flexibility is important. Being able to move into round 1 again adds another year on a contract. I would rather have picks 13 and 26 for example and get a DL and a TE. We could also turn an additional second rounder into a 1 next year.

    ..agree...Chuckie is Chuckie but no way he agrees to a "two fer"......still betting McBeane looks to trade into the mid/late teens for an extra 2nd......Julio?......why would Falcons pull THAT trigger?......

    I agree that it would be shocking if Oakland made that mode with Mayock on board, but it was the only fair trade for points and Oakland needs more firepower. Look at Atlanta's cap: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/atlanta-falcons/cap/

    Just now, Logic said:

    They're going to draft either a defensive tackle or an edge rusher. It's a lead pipe lock.

     

    If they stay i agree 100%.

    Most the options are well stated...

     

    However, I dont get why you think that Atlanta would trade both Julio Jones and their 2nd round pick for our first.  That seems like a bit of a stretch to me.  I think the more plausible trade there would be one of the following:

    • Swapping firsts
    • Sending our 2nd
    • Combo of a 3rd and another pick like a 4th or 5th

    More importantly, there is no evidence that Julio is actually available via trade or that Atlanta would be open to it, at least not yet.  

    I agree, I do not think he is available unless we truly wanted him. It would take a high pick. He is the cleanest WR in the league that is still great. Atlanta could use the cap and Julio wants a new contract. Imagine 5 WR and teams would double Julio or try to spy Allen. JJ is the only player in the league that could put us in the playoffs.

  8. Not my favorite #9 pick, but definitely an option as TE is a QB's best friend.

     

    Any top 10 pick needs to be a rare talent or a big man (D or O Line), however I would not be disappointed in TJ as he may be the best Bills TE prospect I recall. I believe that a trade down serves us best. Don't be surprised if we end up with 2 first round picks again via trades. We may trade back and also up from #2. We still need talent.

     

    TE's will go on a run, so find the spot. I think it may be GB at pick #12?

     

    I like the Giants pick at #17. Trade back and take best available player. If TJ is there grab him, then trade up from 2nd round back into round 1 to grab any of our many other needs.

  9. The Brown's have early movement in Vegas to top 3 in the AFC to make it to the big show. It makes sense to me. KC and the Brown's are the next two new exciting young teams loaded with star talent. If their offensive line holds up and they learn the new system the potential is real. Do I like the Brown's? Not really! Do I think the Brown's fans deserve hope. For sure! 

     

    I believe that KC is one player injury Hall/QB/TE from a 9-7/8-8 season. Their defense is just sad now. You cannot compete when your offense is sitting on the bench.

     

    I think the Bears are quietly moving into elite also. They may not have the dream QB, however they should take another step forward too. Bears vs Browns in Super bowl is not out of the question.

     

    Yes I am a huge Bills fan and have been to every 90's playoff game, plus a horrid Dallas Super Bowl. And yes my family runs a Bills Backers club, but the Bills are slowly on the rise and not worthy yet. I feel the positive energy, however we have some serious work to still do. My guess is 2020/2021 championship game? At that point Brady and Brees will be taking dirt naps. The Bills should have solid starters throughout and the Josh will know this system like a Vet. I can handle one more year of making some noise and dealing with some heartbreakers.

  10. Interesting. I have not been a big Clowney fan, but his PFF grade says he is the real deal. Yes Cash for him would be big, however he would turn our Defense from very good to elite. Hughes would have a field day out there creating mayhem.

    I do agree that swapping #1's or giving up a #2 may be enough. Houston could get another LB on the cheap and we still get a solid TE/DT/OL/WR at 23.

    Couldnt have put it better myself.

     

    Stay#9: Any of the big 5 that drop (Bosa, Q.will, Allen,Oliver,White), ill even allow TJ

    Trade: To anywhere that gets us another 2nd. Talent is deep at DL, and we can get a starter for sure at TE/WR/OL with a heavy preference on OL.  Gimme 3 starters in the first 2 rounds

    I love it! 3 potential starters at TE/WR/DL/OL and/or possibly heir apparent's to Shady/Williams/Hughes and so on. One of these years I would like to dump a 3rd and turn it into a 2nd or a 2nd into a first. Not sure we can pull off that luxury move yet, but it would be cool.

  12. #9 If we stay, then take best available pass rushing DE/DT; Christian Wilkins DT or Ed Oliver DT otherwise slide down... I think that the offensive prospects are a reach in the top 10. Drafting guys later works for me, because I feel confident that our staff can develop defensive players. Screw WR's in round 1 unless they are absolute beasts like Megatron.

    ....................................................................................................................................................................................

    My dream is to trade back and grab an extra 2nd or 3rd rounder, then to draft best available TE/OL; T.J. Hockenson TE or CODY FORD OT, then trade up from 2nd round and take someone like Jonah Williams OGI believe that a TE will not be drafted in the top 12.

    FYI, I like multiple first rounders to get the extra year on their contracts.

     

    * Free agency gave us extreme flexibility. 

    ....................................................................................................................................................................................

    Pipe dream: After all is said and done we will find a #1 WR in a trade after the draft. I would trade away our 2020 #1 round, #3 round, Shaq Lawson and Levi Wallace for Julio Jones WR. Then extend him for a career ending contract in Buffalo.

  13. I think it would be fun to watch and should improve Josh Allen's progress. McCoy could play 2nd WR and the slot. If NE can use little quick guys, imagine McCoy and that agility. It would open up the TE and cause extra game planning. Imagine a WR screen??? Bubble screen??? With the money he is making we need to use him more.

  14. Beane is giving McD some nice tools and the defense to me looks good enough to be top 10, however the offense will have these guys on the field a ton, so it will be a rough year. I would suspect that Edmunds will be listed as a top 5 tackler in the league next year. No one is running up the middle without getting punished and outside runs will be the best when he is coming in at 250 with all of that speed. I am looking forward to the Gronkowski match ups.

    A lot of these experts are crying about the two second rounders that they used to trade up to 7....

     

    Plenty of pre draft mocks I saw had them trading up to 4 or 5 to pick Allen giving up both first rounders and more...

     

    It appears that these guys are fixated on them giving up too much to get to 7, but would have been happy to give up more to get to 4 or 5 for the SAME player...

     

     

    In weaker drafts pick #7 was like pick #4. This was a very deep top 10. I think it was fair. Not sure about Allen still, but time will tell.

    Even after getting Allen, Beane still won't give you the order of how he ranked the QBs, which is fine. You want everyone to believe you got your guy.

     

    He definitely had at least 1 guy ranked higher than Allen. I think it may have been Darnold, Baker, then Allen, but I am just guessing. I believe that they wanted big strong and mobile, plus the dude should see over the line. In Baker's defense, he is a mini Brett Favre personality wise.
