According to Buffalo report Bills reportedly have been talking to Colts in acquiring their 1st round draft pick (3). Both sides have been talking all day.

No way, no how, won't believe it, can't believe it.

I'd be SHOCKED if they didn't just trade for 12 so they have a shot at Jackson. In other news, it's just been reported that it appears as though the Buffalo Bills will be playing their home portion of their schedule at new era field. :) I'll be sure to update if this proves to be true!

If I was Beane, I wouldn't do all of this work and trade most of my picks for any QB in this draft. I'm only doing it if Colts are serious about trading Andrew Luck. They been talking, which does not surprise me. I'll be talking Andrew Luck scenarios all day long with Colts' brass. Lucks' shoulder should not be a concern. Look at Peyton Manning when Colts released him. Peyton's shoulder and neck issues didn't matter.

 

We have enough picks to send to Colts. Colts didn't want Cordy Glenn all along. No one saw this coming.

 

Peyton was struggling to throw the ball downfield and was surrounded by a much more talented team offensively and defensively. 

 

Luck has been out too long t just make the claim that his arm isnt a concern.

 

All this work was done with the intent of getting a top qb prospect. The work isn't being wasted.

No. When Peyton Manning was released by the Colts, he was fine after neck surgery.

 

2012 - 4659 yards, 37 TDs, 11 INTs

2013 - 5477 yards, 55 TDs, 10 INTs

2014 - 4727 yards, 39 TDs, 15 INTs

2015 - 2249 yards, 9 TDs, 17 INTs

 

So 3 complete seasons later,  age and injuries caught up to Peyton at the age of 39. I'll take a chance with Luck. Peyton only struggled in his final season. He was old though. Makes sense. To me, Luck's shoulder isn't a big concern. Again, Peyton Manning's neck is a bigger issue than Luck's shoulder. Peyton was one good hit away from retiring back in 2012.

Why would we chose to draft an undersized qb like Mayfield when he lacks the arm length of Brees or the ability to move like Wilson?  There are not many QBs with his tangibles that have succeeded.  I love his fire but his lack of physical strength botheres me as well.  This typically shows a lack of dedication.  

To be fair, I have concerns about the other QBs as well.  Mayfield scares me the most though.

I don’t know, many seem to think he should go 1st overall.

 

i would be very happy with Darnold, Rosen or Mayfield and could be on board with the ultimate physical skills and Clay to mold of Allen.

 

However, I could be quite content to sit at 12 and take Allen or Mayfield, if they are left

 

And if you sit at 12 hoping one of them falls to you but they're gone before 12, then what?

Question??? Would the Bills have to wait till Wednesday to trade up to #3 being that the Bengals Cordy Glenn trade can’t be official yet? Would seem to me we couldn’t flip #12 till it is officially ours?

It would fall under the same move.  Basically, if they agree on a deal it would be contingent on the Glenn trade.

The trade into the top 5 isn't going to happen until the day of the draft. There's no motivation for teams in those spots to move out now. 

 

Maybe not into the top 5, but they could trade down a bit further. A couple of posters have indicated there is another trade being shopped that would take us into the top 10.

When beane trades up for 3rd overall pick I jizz in my pants 

 

Man, these QBs haven't even had their pro days yet nor team visits.  Somebody must've wowed them at the combine.

Perhaps, but putting in the legwork now allows them to see who is a realistic trade partner and what their baseline demands are.

Not necessarily. The bills are just being aggressive and making sure they get a qb

Perhaps they knew their prey well before. Just reinforced the matter.

 Still hope they have a 1b and and FA dialed in. just in case
