Ya Digg?

I would be more on board with a CB if they feel the value is there....and I should say I'm not 100% for Etienne, but I do think Buffalo is in a great position of not needing to reach for a guy

But again, you are suggesting taking a football player who is not as good as the player they are taking. It gets talked about all the time - in the first round take the best player available. Speed isn't the only thing - if it was Brieda wouldn't be on his third team in 3 years and that prospect you mentioned wouldn't be a 7th round talent. There are several edge rushers taken before the Bills pick in this mock, so you are taking the 5th or 6th best edge rusher in the first round. That is a terrible use of assets. I agree that the Bills need an edge rusher, but not an edge rusher at all costs in the first round just to take an edge rusher

Look at this picks above the Bills pick - so you would rather take a clearly second tier (at best) edge rusher over a player who is clearly a much better player?

Great, so now the Bills will have used 6 first round picks on him? Did we ever actually figure out how many first round picks were used on him in the first place??

Sorry I’m not picking on you specifically, but my question is why? Isn’t this supposed to be entertainment? Aren’t these guys supposed to be having fun? It’s one of the few times the NFL lets these guys show some personality-I just think the whole “act like you’ve been there before” trope is so boring and played out. If they want to hand the ball to the ref, cool...but if they want to celebrate, let them celebrate

Obviously it depends on what’s being offered. They can’t go back too far and still be able to give Tua reliable weapons to be successful this year. They will probably be the most intriguing team to watch on that first night of the draft

Wait, you’re seriously saying he wouldn’t get on the field over Sam Rogers or John Holacek?? Yikes! Putting that aside doe just a second, you can’t compare older linebackers to now. Most linebackers from the 80’s and 90’s wouldn’t be able to play in today’s game-they weren’t fast enough or athletic enough. I understand that you’re voicing your displeasure about Edmunds and I love a good hyperbole too, just seems a bit too far out there

I hate that he’s such a me first player. The guy has selfish written all over him. I just wish he would just be happy with any money and sign for LESS than the league minimum *to those who can’t notice the obvious sarcasm, this was written with a large dose of it

I’m going to suggest that you change the trade compensation for Ertz before some of the other members here read your post. No way the Bills would give up a second for Ertz, ESPECIALLY if the Eagles get Pitts (not gonna happen) and have no need for Ertz any more

Sounds like a great deal for the Falcons! They get this magical third round pick that people around here love to mention so much! And all they have to do is drop 26 spots in the draft to get it!!!

On the flip side of that, is picking up an extra third really worth dropping 15 spots (just as an example)?

Dallas would be foolish to make that deal-they get no future picks to trade back 20 spots and, as you said, are getting a linebacker that they are going to have to pay a lot of money to soon

There’s really no downside for the 49ers here...they most likely keep Jimmy G with that salary for 1 more year-he starts the year then eventually gets benched for the rookie then they release him after the season, or they somehow finagle him into a first or second round pick

Let’s not forget that the deal would actually be Allen at 40+ per year + a happy Diggs + a happy locker room + a happy fan base - the rookie growing pains - having to play against Josh this season

I’m guessing you weren’t watching football back when they switched from 14 to 16 games, but have you been putting up this fight when someone sets a current record? This one extra game is not going to help set a ton more single season records...yes obviously it helps, but not even close to the rate you are thinking

That’s fair-And now that I’m thinking about it, I’m not sure I have ever really called the stadium by it’s name. It’s always “I’m going to the Bills game”

So to flip it around, why will you only call it Rich Stadium or Ralph Wilson Stadium if the name doesn’t matter to you?

For a QB no, but I think teams have given up too much to get guys other than QB. The Saints trading up to draft Davenport comes to mind. I think you do what you can to get the QB who you think gets you where you want to be, but teams need to be more prudent when they are trading for non-QB prospects

Sorry but are you really comparing QB to linebackers?? You do thunder stand the difference? If a QB takes a huge discount, there’s no way that anyone else on that team is going to get paid what they are worth. The front office can just go to the next guy and say “Josh took a discount, so you should too.” I’ve stated this over and over, it’s not Josh’s job to make the salary cap work, that’s up to the front office. So let the front office earn their money, just like Josh had earned his

I don't see how the Bills got worse. They are still missing an edge rusher and I don't see one coming, but other than that I find it hard to believe that someone can look at this roster and say they got worse. To be honest I don't get all the love Flores gets in Miami either. Yes, he had a much better than expected first season, but that team had absolutely no fight in them at all the last game of the season when they were playing for the playoffs and the Bills had nothing to play for. None of those other teams in the division have a QB, they all have marginal talent at WR, I don't believe there is a running back to be afraid of...not sure what makes any of those teams a division winner. Sure, the Pats spent a lot of money, but did they get any better on offense? OP, I appreciate you having the balls to put this thread out there, I just don't see how you came to the conclusion you did

Nobody would offer a future first round pick to get into the very end of the first round

I heard they get to keep their 7th rounder

I think that’s probably around what it will be, but I think his guaranteed money will be above 100 million

Come on guys, Josh is a team player, he should be happy with $20 million a year...I mean, that’s what Brady did all those years, right? If Josh takes anything over $22 million he is selfish and it’s probably time to trade him! Added bonus, we now have his replacement on the team!!!

Then people complain that he took away targets from Davis and Knox and why did they only sign him fir one year and blah blah blah
