BringBackFergy Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Watch this: This will be done the night before the draft: Arizona wants a QB so we trade down from 10 to 13 and get their First Round pick (#13) and Second Round pick (#45) Now that we have #13 and #45, we trade down with Denver at #20 and they give us their #20 pick and their Second Rounder #51 and next year's Second Rounder (probably #44 again). So now that we have #20, #45 and #51, we still have our own Second Rounder at #44 and next year's Second Rounder from Denver at #44. One more move down: Trade our #20 pick from Denver to Oakland (because they want one of the RB's) and we take the Raiders #24 and their Second Rounder #56 and next year's Second Rounder (probably #56 again). With this collection of picks (#20, #44, #45, #51, #56) we approach San Fran sell them on the idea that we don't want a DE or a QB so if they want to trade with us, we'll give them #20, 44, 45, 51, and 56 for their second pick. They are in re-build mode and would love to stock their team with a deep defensive draft. They bite. Now we have the Second Pick overall. Then we re-structure Dareus and approach Cleveland. We tell them, they can have Dareus at a re-negotiated contract and Tyrod Taylor for pick number One. They need a stud on the DL and are in search for a vet QB (my sources told me they were hoping to get Tyrod before he signed with us). They jump at the chance to have Tyrod and Dareus is a bonus. We get their First Round Pick. Now we have Picks 1 and 2....which we can either use or sell off for later picks. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 You saw "Draft Day", didn't you? Under your plan how long does it take to restructure Dareus? Wouldn't it be a hoot if the Bills and their trade partners did everything you propose, then the Bills trade out of the 1 & 2 spots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsredneck1 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 two trade downs to 20 would be awesome. adoree jackson would be the perfect pick there. getting him and those extra picks would be unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 why do we want picks 1 and 2 of this year's draft? i'd love all the trade downs but i never want to see Whaley trade up again Exactly. Keep the trade downs and add 5 players at less cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get their First Round Pick. Now we have Picks 1 and 2....which we can either use or sell off for later picks. Thoughts? One year a team..I think it was Minnesota didn't get their card in on time and another team....maybe KC....ran in front of them. So all the Bills really need to do is to trade now for pick number 32,...say pick #44 plus next year's 2nd....and then slip a mickey into the drinks of the staff of all the team reps in Philly. We can claim that everyone went out for Cheesesteaks but that the Bills are staffed by vegetarians. There must have been something bad in the Velvet. When everyone else is passed out, pick #10 becomes pick #1 and pick #32 becomes pick number 2. The only problem with this plan is giving up next year's 2, but because teams would certainly adapt by Friday and round 2 doesn't start until then, we have to get back into the first. Otherwise it can't miss. If there are a bunch of guys we like after round three we could just stand pat and execute this plan on Saturday morning instead.

ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Interesting but who do you take with those two picks? We are running short on guys named Williams. But there are several in this draft - - so take the best 2 Williams available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) Madden has really ruined peoples sense of reality when it comes to this...it's bad enough you can still return muffed punts for TDs, let alone make ridiculous trades that never would happen Edited April 25, 2017 by matter2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Teams aren't going to make those trades pre draft because they don't knoe if their guy will even be there at the picks they are trading up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I'd be happy with 1 trade down...2 would be amazing...this scenario is just ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
