    I actually want no part of Gordon.  I watched a few if his games last season and he was bad.  Went down easy, fumbled and looked slow.  Ekeler was so much better, it was almost comical that they split duties when Gordon came back.

     

    I dont think Tyrod is a good QB, but I do think Ekeler has a chance to be a top 2 fantasy RB

    Depends on if they plan on drafting a running back. I’d prefer they do that to get someone fresh with fewer miles on him.

    Yeah, they're falsely claiming that the 4th next year is worth a 4th this year.  That's not how it works. 

     

    Yes I'm happy.  They need/were going to add another WR and I figured they'd take one in the 1st, despite all the talk of how deep a draft this is and the possibility of getting a stud later.  Looking at the latest CBS mock draft, they have 4 WR's going in the top 21 (Jeudy, Ruggs and Lamb in the top-13 and Jefferson at 21), meaning the Bills might only have had a shot at the 5th best WR at 22, but for sure the best it would have been is the 4th.  I am also skeptical of their ability to draft WRs, not to mention that with the fewer and fewer practices and especially what will be a truncated off-/pre-season, the rookie WR's won't have enough time to get up to speed, if they ever do.  That won't be a problem with/for Diggs.

    Draft is so deep with Receivers they can get a guy in the  2nd/3rd/4th who can make an impact for them. The reason I love this trade for the Bills. Fills an immediate need with a proven player, NOW.

    This is an excellent post.  The other point that the late round pick hand-wringers are completely missing is Beane was never going to use those extra 5th and 6th roumd picks to draft players in this draft.  Never.  They were acquired as draft captital exclusively to use to trade for targeted players.  

     

    The other thing i think that people are missing with Beane is that he is not hung up on what the perceived chart value of a trade is.  His MO is to get draft captital to make moves, and use what it takes to get the guy he wants.  The extra picks were stocked for that purpose, and that's what he uses them for.

    The Bills needed elite talent. Weren’t gonna get it at 22, and definitely not with the day 3 picks. They got that elite talent in Diggs.
