That is my ONLY thought of why I would think a deal isn't in place. But to remain optimistic, draft is 6 weeks away and typically you don't see draft trades until it's closer to the draft. But giants only have 5 picks and of course McBeane is close with Gettleman. I'm not gonna sulk over jets trade and I'm gonna remain confident in the process

That speculative post last week regarding a huge trade might actually have some validity to it. I'm being optimistic that a trade for #1 or #2 has already been made and the bills and browns/giants are just waiting to release the deal. If true, the price might have went up a little with this jets trade. But I'm gonna remain confident that we trade up for our franchise qb!! Go Bills!!

He would provide good depth. Not saying I want him as our starting MLB, but I'll certainly take Compton on a cheap contract over the guys we already have on roster (-Milano).

Now with Preston gone. I could see this scenario playing out. Or atleast a trade to acuire a LB from another teams roster. I just have a feeling they want their guy hand picked and they will trade one way or another to acquire him.

I'm right there with ya bud. I actually like his demeanor and personality. From all the interviews I've watched of him, I don't see any reason for a team to be turned off from him. Maybe ppl think he comes off cocky at times, but I hear nothing but confidence. And at the quarterback position, if u don't have confidence, you mind as well start planning for the near future.

I took his quote as trading our other 2nd for a 3rd this year and 2nd and later rd pick next year. If the board doesn't look good to McBeane when they pick, then I would be for a trade back. But I still say trade up and get your MLB of the future if the guy they like is there

I'm gonna add a few more >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Good call, we had a great draft last year! I really wouldn't mind if we came out of this draft with just 5-6 picks. As long as we have our qb, our qb of the defense and some nice depth guys.

I hear ya there, wouldn't mind that at all. I'm just curious to where our linebackers come from, especially MLB. Unless we can resign the manageable Preston Brown or maybe Bowman. But MLB is one of the most important position's in this defense. I bet McBeane Want's their Kuechly. It's all hypothetical, but I wanted to hear from other member's if they would be for it or against it. Good call, pimp on da' net... I was inflating the 1st rd trade up bc teams are gonna be asking for more than the value. But if we could trade up for less than I threw out there, even better!!

I'm just saying, I could see McBeane going this route. Especially bc we know they are no strangers to pull the trigger.

Not that I want them to give up draft capital. I just threw this out there bc McBeane is not afraid to deal, and we gotta find our MLB somewhere.

We have 9 picks this year. Let's say we trade for pick #3. I can see us giving up both 1's, one of our 2nd's, our 4th and next year's 2nd/3rd would prob get that done. That leaves us 5 picks to work with this year. To trade to top of rd 2, we could prob get it done with our other 2nd and 1st pick of rd 3. This would give us our qb, our middle lb and have 3 picks left over. It's wishful thinking and I wouldn't be surprised if McBeane went this route.

We are all aware the bills are going after the quarterback that they are targeting with another trade up in the 1st rd. But, If Leighton Vander Esch (or another top linebacker) slides to the 2nd day of the draft, I wouldn't be surprised if Beane works the phone after the 1st rd late Thursday night and Friday afternoon to move to the top of the 2nd rd. I only see this happening if the trade up in the 1st rd involves a 2019 2nd or 3rd. This way we have more ammunition to trade up in the 2nd rd this year and grab our hand picked MLB. I know it's quite a bit of draft capital to pull off 2 trade ups. But I would be all for it. With the few picks We would have left, they could use for lineman, cb or another rb(I just don't see us taking wr early in draft, and typically late rd wr's dont produce right away)We have mega cap space next year to fill holes during free agency. Thoughts??
