It's Hilarious that you think any of the "top rated QB's in this Draft are like Carson Wentz... Shows how in touch "with reality" you are...

 

Philly waited 17 years to take a QB in the 1st round. (McNabb was the last)... And in the end, It wasn't Wentz that won the Superbowl, it was 3rd round Journeyman Nick Foles.

 

Never mind that there was a solid supporting cast in place when Wentz did get there. (OT, WR, TE), ... Then they loaded up at other support positions like RB (Blount, Ajayi)

 

You think we're following their blueprint for success?

 

9 times out of 10 in 'monkey-see/ monkey do', the monkey gets it wrong.

 

So I'm out of touch with reality, huh?

 

Daniel Jeremiah recently compared his top 10 QB prospects from 2016-2018. His results were as follows:

 

10) Paxton Lynch

9) Deshone Kiser

8) Mitchell Trubisky 

7) Deshaun Watson 

6) Josh Allen

5) Baker Mayfield 

4) Jared Goff

3) Josh Rosen

2) Carson Wentz 

1) Sam Darnold 

 

I still argue Darnold, Mayfield and Rosen are worth trading up for... doesn't really look like I'm the one out of touch here

I completely recognize that.  The reward is worth the risk.

 

The possibility also exists we keep all 5 picks and we draft 5 disappointments.  Any draft pick is a risk.

I can appreciate you liking the risk. The Bills have been an embarrassment in the NFL for a decade and a half (excluding the drought breaker). But if they give up all that collateral and whiff? OH NELLIE!!! But if they nail the pick and go into next season with sizeable cap space the future looks extremely bright. Roll the dice Beane, go for it.

It would be great if you could hedge your bet like that, but how many QBs can you actually keep on the roster.

Three and P5t5rman throws balls to DBs on other teams

This concept of "house money" is silly.

 

Those are our assets that we traded for and they shouldn't be treated any differently than any other draft assets we own.

 

It is idiotic.

 

And comparing "house money" to,lotteries makes complete sense since lotteries are idiot taxes.

[Your Brown Eye]

Anyone else getting annoyed with the constant use of "draft capital"?  A couple years ago, it was finding a DE that "sets the edge". I feel like Bills fans get locked onto a phrase or term every draft and it's thrown around like a frog is the Kentucky sun.

[Boatdrinks]

These terms gain traction in the media and go in and out of fashion. The board is reflective of that. No more or less annoying than " draft picks " would be when you've read it 34 thousand times in the last month lol

In order for the Eagles to move up from #8 to #2, it cost them their 1st, 3rd & 4th in 2016 PLUS their 1st in 2017 PLUS their 1st in 2018.

 

And it doesn't appear as though they mortgaged their future either considering... ya know... Super Bowl

if Beane and McDermott don't get one of the 2 or 3 QBs they feel strongly about, this draft will be a failure.

 

In other words if they do not agree with you then they are washed up.

 

How many teams interviewed YOU for a front office position?  Hopefully the Jest and Phish have you on their call list?

 

If they do not trade up the teams they wanted to trade up for wanted to much or QBs available are not worth the picks.

 

[Wily Dog]

I think  Beane will go all in if a QB interests him. If you pansie,s that want to  take non QB's with the picks , you will be the first ones to holler if one of the top four turns out to be a franchise QB. I trust Beane and I think that no one knows which QB that they  want. Personally I would take Allen first  and let him set for a year. But , what do I know , I am like everyone else on the board with an opinion which doesn't mean a whole lot. We have the picks, go for it.

I agree. I think the Bills will sit at 12 and see where the draft falls. If one of the QBs we like is there at 7 I think we start gunning hard for that pick. TBH, I hope we don't cut any more deals with Indy after they screwed us. I know it's a business, but I want to see that franchise suffer now

 

Why 7?

 

The Colts, Broncos and Browns are all in play, too, I'd think.

Here was your question... here's what Jeremiah says directly about his rankings:

 

I always believe it's helpful during the evaluation process to rank the current group of prospects among the players at the position from the previous two drafts. I recently looked up the grades I gave to the quarterbacks in the '16 and '17 draft classes and I slotted them in with this year's crop of talent. Here's the order I have them in based on their draft grade.

 

 

So according to Jeremiah, who once again was an actual NFL scout, Darnold is a better NFL prospect than Wentz OR Goff was 2 years ago coming out of college and Rosen is a better prospect than Goff was.

 

Now, while there are never any guarantees, I think you'll find yourself on an island all alone if you believe trading up for a QB as good as or better than Wentz OR Goff is a bad idea.

Full disclosure... I gamble.

 

I'd feel more like the  picks were "house" funds if we were set at ILB, DT, OT, WR, and TE... Since there are holes at these positions, it seems we're actually

 

"down" a bit... IMO, whatever was scraped together can't all be dumped on a hand of blackjack, a spin of roulette, or in our case, a horse we got a tip on.

 

We need to be wise... Move around... Little here.. Little there... Hit the blackjack table,  then the OTB,  red on roulette. -diversify, and build up slowly.

 

I've spent 10 hours on a casino floor, and quadrupled my money... I've also busted out in under 10 minutes because I was desperate to come up BIG.

 

I have no doubt that there'll be a time in the near future when we WILL be up, and playing with house funds... That time, IMWO, is not now.

Having fun?

 

I don't gamble, so I don't care that you could easily nitpick the analogy as a whole and argue that it's not actual "house money..." 

 

We made the playoffs last year with essentially the same roster we're going to have next season already. Some might argue we're better at several positions.

 

We'll find our other positions if we need them: MLB, C, WR, etc...

 

Time to seriously and sternly address the most important position in sports.

 

Come up with an analogy that connects with a GM and HC who had one 1st round pick last year, traded down to acquire a 2nd 1st rounder this year while also drafting a stud in the 1st round, trading a WR they inherited who would have been gone after one year anyway for a 2nd rounder, trading an LT who literally they never even saw in meaningful regularseason action for a move up 9 spots in the 1st round, and trading a QB they also inherited and clearly wanted to upgrade on for the 1st pick in the 3rd round.

 

They acquired a second 1st rounder this year by trading down and still getting a guy who based on his production would have been worthy of the 10th pick in the draft. Then they also added a 2nd rounder, the 1st pick in the 3rd round and moved up 9 spots in the 1st round by trading guys who almost certainly wouldn't even be on this team right now otherwise and may have been let go for nothing or much less. 2 of those guys McBeane never even benefited from and the other was at the position they were clearly trying to upgrade on.

 

1 1st, one 2nd, one 3rd we have as a result of one shrewd maneuver and getting something in return for 3 players Beane and McDermott inherited and had no long term plans with... 2 of whom they never reaped any on-field benefits from anyway and 1 who a year ago at the draft it was clearly set in motion to draft his replacement... yeah, I'm calling it House Money

The draft capital we'll give up is house money, even if it's all the way up to the Giants' #2 pick.

 

(Obviously all of this is merely opinion  ... I apologize for adding one more thread to a seemingly inundated and frustrated board)

 

 

Our #12 pick was the result of swapping 1sts and trading away a player who may have played well for this team in years past but almost never saw the field (did he ever?) in 2017, our first playoff year in 17 years as a rookie filled in capably for the year and will only get better.

 

Our #22 pick was from KC last year in our trade down in the 1st where we acquired a guy in Tre White who probably should have been in the pro bowl conversation if not the pro bowl itself.

 

One of our 2nd rounders was acquired trading away a talented but oft-injured WR who then wasn't even resigned by the same team who traded for him. And based on Sammy's new salary with KC, he wouldn't be with the Bills even if McDermott exercised his 5th year rookie option.

 

One of our 3rd rounders... the 1st one in the 3rd round, was acquired by trading away a QB that there was absolutely no long term plan on and filled in his slot with a QB who is at least capable of competing for the starting QB job at less than 1/3rd the cost of the guy we just traded away.

 

 

We take those 4 picks, all "house money," and trade them all to the Giants for the #2 pick to grab Rosen/Darnold/Mayfield (please GOD not Allen!!!) and Beane still has all of Buffalo's original picks with a pick in all the remaining rounds other than the 7th.

 

 

And before you say that cost isn't realistic, if you take a look at the Jimmy Johnson draft chart, I think you'll find different:

 

#12 = 1200 points 

#22 = 780 points 

#53 = 370 points 

#65 = 265 points 

 

Grand total = 2615 points 

 

#2 pick = 2600 points

 

So we're giving away picks Beane has been shrewdly acquiring, not picks we were already going to naturally possess. Now, perhaps it's going to take one more pick like a 2nd rounders next year to sweeten the pot a little, but maybe not. 

 

And that's in trading up to #2, which I believe is the highest we're going. Imagine if we wait until draft day and see a guy we want fall to #4 with the Browns or #6 with the Colts... it'll cost less and we'll still get our QB.

 

I'm a little baffled that some are complaining about the idea of giving up draft picks, even if it ensures McBeane can get "their guy." 

 

I view this as the most important draft we've seen since maybe 1983 because we know with almost 100% certainty that the intent is to draft the guy who's going to be our QB for the next 10-15+ years.

 

We can do that in a very strong QB draft class... and we can do it with house money

i haven't read all the posts yet but like john murphy, i don't like the term house money. those picks were for assets the we bought and paid for. they weren't just handed to us. i think there's a cut off point to what beane will give up.

 

  i also think there's a good chance cleveland keeps their no.4.  if we do trade to 6, i could deal with that, but wouldn't be happy about having to give up the other 1st to do it.

I think we acquired that other 1st last year intending to use it this year as draft capital to trade up and get a QB McBeane really love this year because McDermott didn't really love anyone last year.

If they believe their guyis a lock to be a franchise QB they should be willing to trade ever single pick this year, nothing else matters, no other position counts.

No, I don't have zero clue.

 

I have what would probably be considered the average clue of the layman.

 

I don't have the clue of a gambling addict, though.

 

The thread was, I think, pretty straightforward about why we can feel comfortable about Beane giving away those 4 picks to move up for a QB and why those 4 picks he'd quickly give away if they were all it took to get up to #2.

 

You want to get hung up on the term itself because it doesn't exactly match your definition, complain about it with the guys at your meeting later today.

Terrible examples.  Really terrible analogies, actually.

 

Neither the Colts or the Lions traded up to draft Luck or Stafford at #1.  They were just terrible enough teams to earn the #1 pick.  And then their GMs were terrible and didn't draft the supporting casts well.

 

[GunnerBill]

Okay just listened to Beane's presser from yesterday. Conclusions?

 

- The Bills are trading up to #2 so long as Cleveland doesn't take their guy #1 overall;

- It won't happen until draft night;

- The Bills and Giants have an agreed price and it includes the Bills 2019 #1;

- This is NOT a 2 move trade. It is a 1 jump #12 to #2. 

- Beane would be a terrible poker player. 

 

I said after the first post season presser he gave at the Senior Bowl "no way the Bills are staying at #21 and #22". I say again today that unless Cleveland takes their guy (I think Rosen and Allen are the two possibles for 'their guy') the Bills are going to go up to #2. I don't think Beane is that hard to read. He gives a lot of his intentions away without meaning to.

Don't get me wrong I would like this. But are the Giants not taking a QB (when Manning is 37?) and dropping to #12 in spite of Gettleman never having traded down before?

 

I hope you're right but right now I'm thinking:

1-2-3 Allen, Darnold, Rosen in some order

4 Barkley to Cle

5 Mayfield or Chubb

6 Indy Chubb if Den takes Mayfield

If the Giants draft a Quarterback at #2 you can call me wrong. I have been adament all offseason that they will not and I still say that. I would if I were their GM but I think they still believe in Eli and are loading up for a run with him. 

 

Edit: I think the top 6 looks like:

 

1. CLE - Darnold

2. BUF - Rosen

3. NYJ - Allen

4. CLE - Barkley

5. DEN - Nelson

Do you think Bills like Rosen better than Darnold?

i don't care what happens as long as we get our stud MLB and the QB the staff wants. Anything else out of the draft is a cherry on top.

I don't think the Bills like Darnold. He strikes me as way too gunslinger for McDermott. He is the one QB of the top 6 here who has never seen a throw he doesn't like and attempts throws he shouldn't. 

 

I have put my predicted top 6 in my post above.

that's be a great draft pick for Indy

I don't think the Bills like Darnold. He strikes me as way too gunslinger for McDermott. He is the one QB of the top 6 here who has never seen a throw he doesn't like and attempts throws he shouldn't. 

 

I have put my predicted top 6 in my post above. 

Is Allen a bit of a gunslinger?

isn't that the definition of "throwing a reciever open" we've been clamoring for? Hate that term, just sounds like a bad throw the WR (which we don't have outside KB) has to make a play on.

 

I want the Bills to get whatever QB they want. They know much much more than we do, I'll defer to them. If we don't want to build our WR corps sounds like Rosen is the better fit.
