    Stay put at 12.

    Start McCarron.  Ride him to a 1-5 record.  Buckle under pressure and toss in either Peterman or your 1st Round QB Pick (who isn't ready).  Finish 3-13 and then have Another High First Round Draft pick.  Then hear calls from fans and pressure from ownership to draft another QB in 2019.  And potentially be fired.

     

    This wheel starts to roll...if Beane doesn't undo the damage done today.

    LOL. I hope not. I like McBean

    I don't see any path to the 2nd pick for the Bills.  Giants will be able to shake the Jets down for a couple 3rd rounders like 49ers did last year with Trubisky.  And Giants will still get Barkley at 3.  

    sadly you may be correct

    I am under the assumption that the Giants would not give that pic to the Jets at any price but another team would be possible

    I agree and the Bills may be able to grab a future guy at 4? 

  2. Option A: Trade #12  + #22 + our 2019 #1; I believe that Gettleman and Buffalo have a deal IF, McBeane can give them 2 first round picks this year, plus next years 1st which should be a top 10, because our schedule is so tough. I still believe that Rosen is the target. The Jets knew we had a deal in place and made their best move, because Allen or Mayfield fit their system.

     

    #12 + #22 + our 2019 #1 = #2

     

    Note: we could possibly give them a 2nd and 3rd rounder next year instead of the 2019 1st, but they have all of the leverage.

     

    This leaves Buffalo with #2, #53, #56, #65, #96, #121 and #187. 

     

    Next year we have serious cash to land free agents.

    Option B: SF needs another 2nd rounder and with Pick#9 and Pick#12 plus a late pick we are at #2; I believe that Gettleman and Buffalo have a deal IF, McBeane can give them 2 high first round picks this year. I still believe that Rosen is the target. The Jets knew we had a deal in place and made their best move, because Allen or Mayfield fit their system

     

    #22, #56 and #65 = #9

     

    #12 + #9 + #166 = #2

     

    This leaves Buffalo with #2, #53, #121 and #187 and they do not need to give up next years #1 pick which should be a top 10.

     

    Reality is that they trade picks for 2019 somewhere in these packages, because 4 picks won't cut it this year.

    Compounding the issue for the Bills is McD wanting to pass on QB last year..........and the perception that he made a trade with a connection in KC rather than the team with lesser prospects for the coming season and ended up with the 22nd pick instead of the 4th pick.      They are lucky they got a good player in Tre White otherwise they'd be getting crucified Browns-style for it. 

     

    Completely true. I am not sure that Mahomes or Watson were the guy they wanted and I believe they thought this year we would have a top 10. I would not mind if they traded away a #3 this year to get a #2 next year. They will need picks again to make trades for sure.

    The good news is........if they pass on a QB this year.......when they get their next shot at a decent crop of QB's everyone they drafted this year will be almost eligible for free agency at the same time!  :lol:

     

    Here's the thing...........having 6 picks in the first 3 rounds sounds great.........but it's an era of 4 year rookie contracts now and a time where teams are making more informed decisions on PROVEN players in FA and getting better results from that process.

     

    There is an argument to be made AGAINST having 10-12 draft picks in a given year...........a prime example of this would be guys like Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer..........if the Bills had a couple spare recent 3rd and 4th round safeties in development on the roster perhaps the Bills never go after one or either.    I think Cleveland is encountering issues with having too many draft picks to manage and properly evaluate their own talent.    

     

    It's never been more important to have a franchise QB that you can shuffle the deck around rather than draft-and-pay-everyone-around and teams that take chances on QB's are then being REWARDED for placing priority on QB and then having balance in the rest of their personnel dealings.       

     

    I agree. The way teams are built are completely different. If you have a core QB, O-line and D-line, then you can build fast. If you have one (the Bills have D-line), then you have to build enough for free agents to want to come. I see us dropping into the top 10 next year. We have to get a QB and #2 or #4 or #5 are the only options. I love that the drought is over, but I knew it would bite us. Every year there have been QBs we don't land a franchise one and every year we are top of the draft there isn't one there. Not sure how the Giants won't rape us on a trade.

  5. Yesterday I was crafting this, but did not want to jinx us, so I didn't submit. I some what hope Buffalo can swing a trade with the Giants, but I am not sure they will?

     

    Question now is do they move to Denver's #5 (Allen or Mayfield?) if they are willing which I doubt or Giants #2 (Rosen) and give away next years #1 on top of most of our 1st 3 rounds this year. Puke!

     

     

    1. Browns should take QB #1 (Darnold), because it will push the panic button for the #2 and #3 picks as the Jets and Bills fight it out. 

    2. The Giants want QB (Darnold), but settle for Saquon Barkley if they are stuck with pick and their guy isn't there, unless they are offered a serious ton of draft capital from the Bills or Jets like a #1 next year plus more. Josh Rosen is Manning 2.0 (smooth arm movement but throws a wobbler on film), so that is possible too.

    3A. This makes #3 trade down gold.The Colts should trade with the Jets and grab their #2 to land a blue chipper and still get a beast on defense without having to drop to #12. They need draft picks, because of Cap hell. I think there is a secret plan to draft Baker Mayfield, so they may stay put or trade with Cleveland to leapfrog Denver. I think the Colts could still land Chubb here at #6.

    3B. However, If I were Buffalo I would swing a deal with SF to #9 ASAP and give them a late #3 to gain leverage, because they do not have a #2 from the Jimmy Garoppolo trade and it would still give the Colts a great prospect on Defense or at Guard in the top 10. Trading to #3 from #9 would cost the Bills either our #22 or both 2nd round picks + change. I would rather keep #22 to land a great MLB since there are 3 elite ones, but I think Indy wants #22. I think we lose out and cannot move down to get our guy!

    4. Bills really like Josh Allen and gamble on a bust?

     

    Prediction

    Cleveland - Darnold

    Giants - Rosen (Manning 2.0)

    Jets - Mayfield

    Browns - Barkley/Minkah Fitzpatrick or we secretly like Josh Allen

    Denver - Josh Allen (Elway 2.0)

    Chubb

    ....

    ....

    #12 Bills decide to take Tremaine Edmunds, Virginia Tech or Roquan Smith, Georgia 

    ....

    skip to #22

    Bills Select 

     

  6. I do not like anyone outside of the top 4 rated QBs, so if we cannot get our guy, then draft best available at any position. Trade for Foles after round 1 for a #2 this year and next year. He is the only FA QB next year. Send both #2's this year or move to the top of round 2 for Lamar. At least we would have something to discuss and have a competition all year.

    - one of them will drop to 10 for sure.

    I like that scenario too, if they for some reason ranging from too steep of a price to trade up  to ¨their guy¨@QB taken too early, need to stay put at 12,

    they better get a freakish Defensive guy right there.

    If you account for  ~  5 QBs,  ~ 1 RB ,  ~ 2DL, ~ 1DB, (in bold I highlight positions which we don´t need any more)  taken before 12, we are talking about getting one of the 2 top LBs! which has to be a monster pick to me!!! things looking up for our guys!!

     

    We will trade our left nut for a QB, so this is all BS below...

     

    If no QB, then I would trade up from #22 to #9 w/SF, by trading #22, #56 and #65 to take Quenton Nelson LG (Gold Jacket - Bills Wall of Fame)

    The Bills need Roquan Smith (5-10 year starter) at #12 or I would settle for Tremaine Edmunds. I think Roquan is the real deal, but Tremaine is gifted and has a ton potential.

    Pick #53 Billy Price Center (5-10 year starter)

    Pick # 121 should be a deep threat at WR (Moore, Chark) or grab a CB (McD is the DB whisperer).

    Pick# 166 RB (Ivory is about done)

    Pick #187 Mike White QB

    3x starters and a few guys to develop for next year. Solid Offensive and defensive lines.

    Note: I loath Mason Rudolph and Lamar is Tyrod/Vick 2.0.

    Cap space will be $60-90 Million for next year. Go all in for FA... Grab an elite WR and replace another Offensive lineman.

     

    Depth chart:

    QB - AJ "average" Mccarron and Mr. Pickles

    RB - RB McCoy, Ivory, Rookie

    WR - Calvin, Zay and a maybe Rookie

    TE - Clay, O'Leary and maybe a Rookie 

    LT - Dawkins

    LG - Nelson

    C - Price/Groy

    RG - Incognito/Groy

    RT - Mills

    RE - Hughes/Shaq

    DT - Williams

    DT-  Lotulelei

    LE - Trent/Shaq

    OLB - Milano

    MLB - Roquan

    OLB - Lorenzo Alexander

    FS - Hyde

    SS - Poyer

    CB - White

    CB - Davis

    Nickel - Rookie

     

    Wins in Bold

    Home: Dolphins, Patriots, Jets, Jaguars, Titans, Chargers, Bears, Lions
    Away: Dolphins, Patriots, Jets, Texans, Colts, Ravens, Packers, Vikings

     

    Buffalo Bills 4-12 Top 3 pick in 2019 Draft 

    - no QB prospect worth taking, so we go after the best free agent on the market. Nick Foles LOL http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/2019/quarterback/

    more like 4.5...those players necessarily displace other players from the top 51 which means the displaced players contrcts values are subtracted from the rookie contract values

     

    They probably have 4-6 million to play with, but I would sit and wait now to grab cheap guys for depth. Don't extend and play with the cap. If there are some ways to work in another 5 million because of Wood and the trades, then do it.

    One more season of Charles Clay then we can cut him!!! I hope the draft a TE to groom with our new QB.

     

    POTENTIAL OUT: 2019, 4 YR, $33,500,000; $4,500,000 DEAD CAP

    I agree.  If you add Barkley, you have a great OL, 3 great WR's, a capable QB in TT and whatever rookie they draft, and a solid D.   I think they could make the playoffs next year.  They are putting a scary roster together.  

     

    please be the Rams.   Also, him and Donald on the same line is sick.  

     

    I actually want to see that. With those new corners, they can crush QBs.

    I guess he's a good receiver after all....:rolleyes:

     

    He loves Tight Ends and small receivers.

    Yuks aside, that is two Pats so far who had been willing to take less money to be a Patriot, who now have left for a market value payday.

     

    I wonder if this signals the end is near for Billy Bellichick?

     

    I am wondering the same thing. I have to believe this is the final year. Their draft will tell all this year.

    If I'm the Colts and that's your offer, I just hang up the phone, you have to do way better than that.  The points chart is one thing but the tax for moving up for a QB means you better go 20-25% above.

     

    Strangely Bills fans seem to think that other teams are suppose to give away the pick. 

     

    I'd personally much rather give away 12 and 22 this year than 12 and a 1st next year, as that pick is likely to be much higher than 22 is this year.  I doubt the Bills will make the playoffs on a 2nd place schedule and a ton of new starters, potentially a rookie at QB or at best a journeyman. 

     

     

     

    Agreed. I believe this will be more likely. Having an SEC Alabama guy and two very good options at MLB available in that slot I am still hopeful we can stay.
