Paul Richardson would be a nice addition. Hopefully he can sign for less than 7.5 mill

Most def!! 2 things, first, saquon Barkley too good to pass up and won't slide. They like 2 qbs, darnold and Allen, they take Barkley bc they are guaranteed to have either QB at 4. 2nd, the taste of Tyrod signals they'll take Allen or Darnold bc they need time, and Tyrod is a very good bridge QB/backup I agree. The draft is the way!! That's the reason we can get Rosen!! Why don't people see this?? Yes, it's expensive, but it's the most important position, in all of sports!!! Me too! Smoke and reading bw the lines is the same thing. Apply logic and realism, then draw conclusions.

QB Position: Clearly, they're going BIG game hunting. They want a terrific young Franchise QB (as evidence with all the draft capital), that can not just win games, but win championships!! They also want a valued backup (Phily being the copycat in a copycat league). Sure you'll here names like Bradford, Keenum, but someone like McCown or Matt Moore are probably the guys that will backup. Bradford probably wants to start, same with Keenum, but the main thing here is which QB takes the least amount of money, which means probably Moore or McCown. How do they get into the top 5??: 1 of 2 ways. If Cleveland takes Barkely @1, (which I predict they will) then the Giants, IMHO, will give serious consideration to Buff trade. Deal is NY Giants get: 21, 22, 53, 2019 3rd, & Cordy Glenn OR.... Indy gets: 21, 22, 53, 65, 2019 2nd Draft?? The way we look at it, we give up ALOT, but it's still a normal draft. We have picks in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th round. We may loose a future 2, 3, or maybe even a 1, but with the trade of Glenn we will have alot of cap room in 2019 to fill in those holes/picks. Not to mention we'll obtain at least 2, possibly more comp picks for guys like Gaines, P.Brown, if they walk. Free Agency: No big names, but they'll try WR, but IMO, the market is way too high, which is why I think they'll target DJ Moore, or Anthony Miller in the 2nd round. Probably fill Preston Brown role with a guy like Avery Williamson. I think they'll also try to find a FA off lineman.

Some team at the combine asked a player if he is gay

AMEN!! -

elltrain22 replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Football is not just business, but BIG, BIG business. Any question, that helps a GM/team understand a player more is fair game. IMHO, the fact that Guice is so sensative about this line of question, to me, is a kinda of a red flag. -
The realities of moving up. (it won't be easy)
elltrain22 replied to Zerovoltz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Difficult decisions involve difficult situations! There are alot of dynamics like you have VERY correctly & informatively pointed out. These dynamics make it difficult, but.... 1. we have more draft capital than any team in the NFL 2. IMHO, we want a top tier franchise QB at the top of this draft 3. we realize the cost, but the cost of not taking advantage of our draft capital & this strong QB class is very foolish 4. Beane & McDermott are very smart & methodical, and they know how important it is for this franchise to move forward, and the best way to do that, is by having a very good QB -
Players you are sure will be gone by 21
elltrain22 replied to Chuck Wagon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
1. Barkley 2. Rosen 3. Mayfield 4. Darnold 5. Allen 6. Chubb 7. Fitzpatrick 8. Roquan Smith 9. Nelson 10. C. Williams 11. Ward 12. Vea Those are the ones I'm absolutely sure of -
Good news!! For a few reasons. 1. Ivory is a good player, and a nice option for short yardage/goal line 2. Eliminates or severely decreases the need for an early round pick being spent on a RB, now we can draft another positional need 3. our FO is demonstrating very good presentation. 2 visits, and 2 signings!! 4. we can get rid of Tolbert!!

Offseason hopes/predictions....
elltrain22 replied to elltrain22's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
First, I fixed my draft. I'm too used to doing a trade @ 4 or 5 where we don't give up any of our 2nd round picks, but I carelessly forgot to proof read my post b4 I posted!! I did edit my post, and had us taking Phillips (and deleted my pick of Jamarco Jones). Second, I 100% echo your comments!! This team has had one of the worst situations at QB in the entire league for 20 years. We've tried trades (Bledsoe), we've tried mid-first round picks (EJ), we've tried 2nd round QB's (Trent Edwards), and our favorite FA qb's (Tyrod, Kyle Orton, Kolb, etc, etc). I'm not saying that the only way you get a franchise QB is to draft into the top 5, but with this year's group of QB's, and with so many teams lining up to draft a QB, we've got to assure ourselves we get the guy we really, really want. If the Bills FO loves Rosen, then by all means go get him. The price tag is huge, but franchise QB's don't just fall into your lap. -
Offseason hopes/predictions....
elltrain22 replied to elltrain22's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't think we have the cap space, nor the want to sign the soon to be highest paid player in the NFL. The Minnesota QB's are a HUGE gamble IMO. Bridgewater is a huge injury risk, plus is he a much better option than TT?? Bradford, IMHO, is way beyond damaged goods, and Keenum could be a product of system & good WR's. -
Truth be told, these are probably, as hard as I try, hopes & not so much predictions. I am a realist, but still, I always lean to the side of a dreamer when it comes to the Bills & Sabres. Hope you enjoy reading, and hope many of you chime in with your predictions. Go Bills!! FA Signings: LB NaVarro Bowman, OL Andrew Norwell, and WR Jeremy Maclin, Kyle Williams stays for another year FA losses: EJ Gaines, Preston Brown, Jordan Matthews Re-sign: Deonte Thompson, Colt Anderson, Ramon Humber, Leonard Johnson, Draft: Trade 21, 22, 53, 2019 1st, & Cordy Glenn to NYG RD 1: Josh Rosen (2nd overall), RD 2: Harrison Phillips DT RD 3: Donte Jackson CB RD 4: Rashaad Penny RB RD 5: Deon Cain WR, Troy Fumagalli TE

So What IF The Bills Trade UP
elltrain22 replied to DefenseWins's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Get the franchise QB. No matter what. Sell the farm!! No more effing around -
I doubt Beane risks both 1st round picks
elltrain22 replied to gjv001's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wasn't saying we, the fans, know as much as McBeane do. What I am saying here is that, the fans, and management, know what QB's are tier 1, 2, 3, etc. -
I doubt Beane risks both 1st round picks
elltrain22 replied to gjv001's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think they do. They know the landscape just like you and I do. I believe that Rosen is their target, but I also think they like Allen/Darnold/Mayfield, in that order. I think it all depends on how the draft shakes out. As it looks now, there is an average chance Cleveland takes Barkely 1st, and then the Giants pass on QB, which then opens up so many trade down possiblities for us
