The only two teams that traded back into the 1st round were the Jets and Titans. Not exactly the models of Super Bowl caliber.
I feel like you’ve oversimplified this a bit personally. With this draft board any gm drafting in the late first needing linebackers and a run stuffing DT badly is trading back.
the chiefs,eagles,pats etc don’t give up 75 ppg in the playoffs 😂 I don’t think they were down a second round pick on top of that either like the bills were
I really don’t like any of the trade up moves tbh. Really feel like the chiefs have too many holes to be doing it although they did get good players assuming woods returns to his 2024 form. Pats needed a tackle but drafted a LT that can’t run block well when they needed a RT than can imo
lemon I’ll guess we’ll see…that’s probably my hot take of the three lol he seems like he could go the ‘slot only that can’t hang outside’ route at an nfl level but time will tell. I don’t think a team like Buffalo without a second round pick and kinda loaded at slot could roll the dice on a trade up for lemon

You can never please everybody. Those 3 players were probably the overall fan favorites at or near #26. Don't confuse a few loud mouths with a majority opinion.
I think of your 3 lemon would’ve been well received initially because he’s a big name but he didnt even make much sense as a bills trade up target imo when you start to think about it.
another mostly slot wr without great physical traits that doesn’t win over the top a ton. Scouts are kinda battling it out over if he can succeed consistently outside at an nfl level… I’d imagine that’s why he fell a bit. Bills were not in a great position to trade up into the mid 1st and their roster has established veterans in that role already.
lemon at 26 if he fell that far somehow is a no brainer but if the bills had to trade one or both of their remaining early ish picks with all the other holes it gets pretty dicey. You better make sure you’re getting THE guy if your next pick is like round 5 and lemon mostly played slot so far

I have two questions after that. What was the over under on trades tonight? and does Beane have a polymarket account?
maybe we can get him arrested like that soldier
I think if you’re trading at least once in the late first it makes sense to trade 2 or 3 total times to get to the early second but that’s getting treated as weird for some reason
if your list of guys would be a reach at 26 they’re probably still gonna be a reach at 28 and 31 too

I think people might have more time for this if your argument wasn't "we should have draft someone for a position we already have covered."
That’s the issue I have with the complaints…even if cooper is good it doesn’t even move the needle unless he morphs into a completely different style of player at the nfl level. Concepcion is possibly gonna have that issue too although they might’ve taken a shot at him at 26

A trade up for Lemon, Concepcion, or Mesidor wouldn't have cost much and probably would have made most fans happy. Not saying that would have been the right move, but it's silly to say that people would have complained about any outcome when there were clear paths to fan favorites.
People would’ve complained heavily about two of those im certain…mesidor people were already complaining we were gonna draft him at 26 😂.
lemon might’ve been received ok depending on the return.

I GUARANTEE Beane did not think the Jets would trade up to take Cooper.
Then Beane got pis***d and traded out.
Y’all are being very strange about cooper when everyone mutually complained about us only having slot receivers all year last year 😂. You want him to spend his only pick in the first two rounds on pretty much the only prototype of player we don’t need
Cooper was out once they traded for dj Moore imo

We were the only team trading back.
The Eagles - up.
Houston - up.
NE - up
KC - up.
But what do they know.
Who did those other two teams trade with to move up if we’re the only ones trading back 😂

That changed for me when Cooper fell to 26
The Texans trade was good. Even trading to 31.
This is too f***ing stupid.
What is the deal with cooper lol I’m really not seeing him as a fit on the bills roster at all for reasons I thought this board mutually agreed on during the season last year. The whole roster is slot guys 😂. Frankly I’d rather just take a shot at multiple raw but physically talented prospects than draft a guy that even if he hits doesn’t help the team much based on the current wr room
Boston I don’t like either but at least if he develops it’s something they don’t really have much of on the roster. Still could be a Keon repeat though so I can’t hate on passing on that in the first-

Cooper is a stud we passed on to select a LB in round 2. This is ridiculous
Genuinely don’t know what this guy even adds to a team with Shakir/dj Moore already. Would’ve been a wasted pick imo. Might work out well for someone without a guy filling those sorts of roles though

At some point you just play the game and make a selection. No one can predict the future. Beane is doing his smartest guy in the league bit as usual.
I’m thinking he’s gonna start packaging picks to move up and it’ll make more sense but we’ll see 😂

Why didnt the bills take cooper?
He’s mostly a slot guy in my understanding…this has been a weird night with bills fans pounding the table for guys they already have lol cooper is Shakir/moore but not as good and Boston could very well be slightly improved Keon Coleman
We went all year saying no more slot or slow guys and are disappointed we didn’t draft those kinds of guys 😂

Complete failure by Beane. Cooper is a better WR than Boston.
Neither of them are a good fit imo and we seem to be avoiding both to me rather wisely if you ask me

Jets take Cooper, ughhh
Isn’t cooper a slot guy mostly?

Just now, buffblue said:
I guess the Worthy/Coleman maneuver wasn't enough. Beane is just trolling us
Worthy/coleman was a lot different optics wise cuz worthy fit a position of need for the bills and everyone knew that’s who kc was trading up for. This NE trade is them goin after someone we don’t need

Beane is such a moron. An absolute coward.
I’d at least wait to see what the return is before this post haha I’d ride the run on olineman tbh and use that to our advantage

Decent player, reasonable contract. Not much left on the market for edge players.
Hopefully we get what he produced in Miami in 2023 & 2025.
I’d expect him to be better than last year even…he was still workin his way back from a serious injury last season. Feels like most guys have a down year after recovering from a major knee injury

what's this "cap has been allocated elsewhere" nonsense by the Bills FO. Bean is just playing games before he begins overpaying a bunch of JAGs again.
I think it’s pure speculation by the nfl talking heads and they haven’t heard anything tbh
To be fair though for conversations sake I don’t think the other teams in the Hendrickson ‘sweepstakes’ were gonna overpay for a dude turning 32 midseason next year that hasn’t seen the field much lately then the ravens swooped in with a good deal (for him). So the bills potentially were never willing to spend mid 30m per year on an edge rusher even if they had the highest bid for Hendrickson

Dont want Hendrickson at all. Another Von Miller contract that we would be regretting and the Ravens will be regretting.
I also dont see the Ravens doing anything wrong here. Maxx failed his physical. It happens. It happened to Brees in Miami. It's happened a bunch on lesser names.
I do like the pressure this puts on the Raiders to get him moved fast. Maybe a 2027 1st and 3rd from the Bills? Throw in Epenesa too
If we're attacking posters instead of information, we could just as easily say you just believe all the conspiracy theories too.
Let me know when Maxx shows up with JFK Jr!
Brees had multiple major shoulder surgeries before that physical though to be fair. His shoulder injury was like freakishly bad. If Crosby had an acl tear 8 months ago I wouldn’t be shocked at all he’d fail a physical but meniscus repair leading to a failed physical after a probably lopsided trade then immediately signing Hendrickson for less than he was looking for is a bit eyebrow raising to say the least lol
they pretty much had to rebuild Brees’ throwing shoulder from scratch it’s on a whole other level compared to Crosby. Brees had a really bizarre dislocation that tore everything in his shoulder 😂. It was one of those ‘is this guy even gonna play again’ type things

Thing is, this isn't Maxx's first knee injury.
"... treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee."
That is not a minor knee procedure.
Torn meniscus with no other ligament damage is extremely minor by nfl injury requiring surgery standards goes. Guys all around the league are getting procedures around that level in the offseason. It’s risky leaving it untreated though because the destabilization could lead to you tearing something else which is why the raiders shut him down. If the ravens canceled the deal because he didn’t get the full repair then that would make some sense to me but it’s the opposite somehow 😂

The word around the league was that Crosby was good to play at the end of last season but that the Raiders were shutting him down for the year, which is why tensions grew between he and the team.
If anything, it looks like The Raiders and Crosby tried to pull a fast one on Baltimore and failed.
They forced him to get an extremely minor knee procedure lol. I think that’s the part you’re missing. he very likely could’ve played through it with no surgery at all but the raiders wanted to preserve his trade value and he got the lowest risk/best for his long term health procedure which has a very good prognosis and short recovery time and the ravens failed him anyway. It’s a joke.
I assumed the knee injury was something more serious but to do this over a meniscus repair is laughable. Nothing can really be done at an nfl level punishment wise but it’s absolutely embarrassing for them
if Crosby DIDNT get the meniscus surgery or got the ‘just patch me up so I can play’ meniscus surgery then maybe I can see it but Crosby/the raiders literally did everything right lol ravens have absolutely no leg to stand on

He was good to play through the meniscus injury. He already had been. He wanted to continue but team shut him down. He then had surgery on it in January. He is expected to recover fully and is on schedule. The ravens were aware of his medicals before agreeing to the trade. Multiple reports that he’s on schedule. They just changed their minds on the trade after seeing how many guys they lost, understanding the amount of draft capital they gave up, and now look stupid and unprofessional.
Literally didn’t know it was just a meniscus repair when this convo all started…ravens are way more sketchy than I even thought haha I feel like pretty much everybody has a procedure of that level in the offseason 😂 what a joke

13 minutes ago, Chicken Boo said:
He's not even fully recovered from his most recent knee injury, which is why he failed his physical.
Crosby should not be an option. I don't know what some people are thinking?
You can investigate his knee yourself too keep in mind…I’d be shocked if the ravens didn’t exaggerate the state of his knee tbh
not sure if the raiders are just gonna bite the bullet and keep him but a meniscus repair isn’t super serious and if he’s on track and you can get him for a 1st or second whatever team that is is likely gonna be very happy
Crosby did what he was supposed to and got the full meniscus repair in January which is only like a three month recovery. Not sure why it’s getting treated like he blew out all his knee ligaments and may never walk again 😂 ravens are full of it although I’m not sure if they had the Hendrickson deal lined up already that part is speculation…they mighta just regretted unloading the two firsts
It’s a minor knee injury that he could’ve just got a simple procedure to play through if he was worried about playoff availability or anything like that.

Investigate what? Crosby's poor health?
What?
I mean I agree there’s nothing the league can do but that article you shared proves the ravens are sketchy if anything lol they knew Crosby was rehabbing a knee injury when they agreed to trade for him in the first place and if he was actually on track then I’m not sure the ravens ‘should’ be able to back out (though there really isn’t a rule that could stop them in this weird tampering period)

I can’t see mcd ever being back in any capacity. Whether by just bad personnel evaluation or what the guy just didn’t really attract any defensive coaching talent and it was always a huge liability when it mattered most
