lookylookyherecomescookie Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 21 minutes ago, McBean said: If we trade to #3, they will be thrilled with either Rosen, Darnold, or Mayfield. Those 3 qb's are all so different from one another, it would seem odd that the Bills would be happy with all 3. Also, seems that there wouldn't be much downside to the Browns, Bills, Colts and Giants to work together at this point to explore whether their needs could all be met without hurting each other. If so, the upside would be making planning for the rest of the draft much easier for each team, knowing with certainty where they would stand after the first 4 pix were made.

Chuck Wagon Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 26 minutes ago, NewEraBills said: I don't think GM's approach and grade that way. They probably like all three guys. It's like dating man. You date three women at the same time and you could see yourself with either of them. Just let things work themselves out but make sure you get 1 of them. Exactly this. You move up to 3 because there's 3 guys you can be happy landing, and moving up to 3 now prevents someone else from moving up to 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Just blow the breasts off this thing tonight and go up to 1. Screw it. Let it be our time for a change. Take no chances. Get whoever we want and we will fill in afterwords. We have the right guys in place for a change.

macaroni Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 32 minutes ago, NickelCity said: It would be interesting for sure. I feel good about Rosen and Mayfield, and I've fluctuated on Darnold. Interestingly, my assessment of Darnold has increased over the past week or so (rewatched some of his games). If they take any of the three, I've got to give it to them. Heck of an offseason and it's early March. 27 minutes ago, BadLandsMeanie said: I am finding that there is such a thing as a bit too much excitement in the offseason. In years gone by Buddy Nix would just be settling in for his pre free agency period nap, and Rex would have declared us the off season champions after the Ivory trade ... this sure has been fun so far ... can't wait to see how this all plays out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving up to 12 for Darnold wouldn't be horrible. But moving up to 12 - and then to 3 - for Darnold would be. He's not worth the huge move. Rosen and Mayfield are, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 30 minutes ago, Mojo44 said: The indications certainly point to the likelihood that the bills are trying to maneuver up to one of the top picksThe indications certainly point to the likelihood that the bills are trying to maneuver up to get one of the top three quarterbacks coming out from college. However the Luck scenario is certainly plausible. There is one other scenario here. The bills might be angling to get one of the top tier free agent quarterbacks such as Cousins, Foles or maybe even BreesAnd use their draft picks to shore up their linebackers, defensive line and OL. They could get a stud linebacker or D lineman with number 12! QB or fail. I don't want Luck, Cousins or a LB or DT. I want a franchise QB at 3. Do whatever it takes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol Dirty B Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 57 minutes ago, Buffalo Ballin said: 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.

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.

auburnbillsbacker Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
