Round 2 may get be the best time for Beane to trade up, if he doesn’t trade up in round one. (Or if ends up not taking a WR with our first pick)

That was just so that he could be near his QB, Josh Allen's house in the off season. They can work out together in Dana Point.

DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED?!! You’re damn right I did!

If so, maybe it is one of those "unless our guy is still there" type of deals, that doesn't get announced until the day of the draft.

Agreed. That would mean he played well, earned a starting job, stayed healthy etc., in order to earn those incentives. In which case, the price tag would be worth it.

Or when we trade up and take a Safety.

The A’s always had a really low team salary, we do not. The A’s always traded away their home grown talent, once there was a market for them, we do not. so, maybe, kinda, sorta?…

You're right, Allen is better than Mahomes. I personally would not want the Bills to trade Allen for Mahomes straight up. It is some of the other things that Mahomes has around him, like Andy Reid, that has helped them be more successful. Call it homerism if you want, but I have seen NFL analysts make the same case.

Rebuild? No. Reload? Yes. Anyone who did not expect this kind of roster shake up, do not fully understand what it is like having a high contract QB in the salary cap era. These kind of moves are what it takes to stay competitive. The Chiefs did it with Hill, the Chargers had to move on from Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, the Bengals will have to do it eventually with Higgins etc... I am glad Beane is making the moves now, rather than waiting until it is too late.

ah, my bad. I misread that.

Amen. The over-reaction on this board is hilarious. And for everyone bitching that it is "only" a 2nd round pick, we also got a 6th this year, and a 5th next year. Those picks matter when you are reloading the roster. ***My bad! I misread the announcement. We gave up the 5th and 6th. Wishful thinking on my part I guess. Damn!***

Yeah, I still highly doubt he goes anywhere, but if Houston really wants him, let's ask for Will Anderson in return.

OP, thank you for a great, detailed description. I am not a gambler, in part because I am in Georgia and Draft Kings etc. is not an option for me, so I am never quite sure what the odds mean. (aside from knowing which ones are better or worse) So thanks for the gambling 101. That said, I also believe that Diggs will play in Buffalo again this year. I assume that someone could offer a trade that somehow eases the dead cap money if we traded him, or at least makes it worthwhile, but I highly doubt it.

Awesome! I can’t wait for all of my Buffalo Bills gear to become throw back gear! (happy April 1st)

I agree. Likely more than the Bills could have afforded right now.
