njbuff Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Do you think they will try and trade up for a franchise QB or do you think they will trade back several times and come away with a load of draft picks. I think either or is going to happen. Don't see them staying put and just making selections. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 trade back and acquire more picks. Beane's modus operandi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Yes. I think they will trade up to ensure that a player they want is acquired, and I think they will trade back if they aren't sold on anyone in their spot and the trade offer is more valuable to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I am convinced they will trade up if the opportunity is there. Some if you think Beane is just a pick collector. I don't. I think he has collected these picks for one purpose and one purpose only - to end the QB dilemma that has hamstrung this team for over 20 years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Linen Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think they're trading up for a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I have a feeling if the QB they want drops to the right spot they will trade up for him. There are only 3 QB's I like and only two I would trade up for, Darnold and Mayfield I would trade up for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayboy54 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Its hard for me to imagine that one of the top QBs won't drop out of the top 5. Someone always does. Whomever it is this year, the Bills will have a grade on. If he's there and they can get a partner, I believe they'll trade up. Unfortunately, even though I believe they should, I will guess they won't trade up into the top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st&ten Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Imo Darnold is the next great QB. If they can get him go for it. The rest of the QB's I'm not sure about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they might go all in to get the QB they want this year. Was hoping the KC pick was in the 12 to 18 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think they may trade up this year. Just hope it doesn't cost the farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to do their damnedest to move up for a QB if they don't somehow get Cousins. All of the signs are there. 1 minute ago, Patrick_Duffy said: I think they may trade up this year.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 A QB that is growing on me after watching some game replays is Luke Falk. If we don't trade up for a QB I would be happy with Falk. Football is this guys life and passion, he is a very accurate passer and has very good vision. He has put on some solid muscle mass for the combine and I see him getting better every year he plays. Not a very vocal guy, lets his play on the field and time spent in the film room do his talking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Honestly, I will be disappointed if they don’t at least attempt to trade up for a QB with all the extra picks they acquired. Right now, the extra picks are “house money” to me. You can trade 2 #1’s and a #2 and still have a nice all-around draft with your QB in the 1st round and 2 day-2 picks in the 2nd and 3rd. Add Glenn if you need more draft capital, and even throw in one of next year’s high picks if you must. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
707BillsFan Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I think they'll do both. They'll trade up, but only using one of the 1st Rd picks. Then using the second, they'll trade down to acquiring / getting back some of the picks lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
