Keep all your picks and if Allen or Mayfield are gone, Jackson will definitely be there. Sam is the only guy worth trading up. did you feel that way when Josh Rosen was tearing things up his freshman year? nobody had even heard of redshirt Sam Darnold back then. he was only playing at USC because Rosen wanted to go to a good school so he turned them down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not. Gonna. Happen. My sweet spot is when "the guy" is there for the Bills Braintrust at whatever #. So far they have done pretty well - not a fan of the Ivory deal - too much $$$ for a crappy 30 yo RB IMO - but all in all I think they have done a great job so far being rookies. They most likely got snookered by the Jests - who knows tho, really who knows - only Beane and the FO know that - and that 6 pick is A LOT more attractive than the 12 pick tho so I am sure that had something going for it. Bottom line I really hope they don't get stoopid desperate on Draft Day......IMO I do not see the value of these guys like some of your other folks here do. My gawd some of you guys have MARRIED yourself to QB A or QB B. Crazee........one thing for sure - gonna be a lot of posts between now and the draft and as someone said in another post the place will MELT the EFF down after the picks for the 1st round are in. NUCLEAR. MELT. DOWN. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup....I don't see how that was anything but a big !@#$ up. He who hesitates is lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no idea what happened. It’s not a !@#$ up if the Colts didn’t want to move to the 12th pick. For all we know the Colts pick up a haul of picks and still end up with the player they want. You can’t force teams to make trades against their own interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Wherever I'm drafted is all right with me. I imagine my age (66) is going to work against me. That and the fact I never played organized football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessYaDigg Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Man, I've been telling everyone all along that the Giants will not be picking a QB with the #2 overall pick. They need to fix their defense first. I could definitely be wrong, cuz we all know that it's very difficult to predict the way the draft will actually turn out, but the Giants wanna win now and they know they can do that with Eli and a better defense.

White Linen Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I won't know until after the draft. I'm in the minority in that I want Josh Allen - so wherever it ends up being to get him, that's where I want to be. Could be staying at 12 but we'd have to get lucky.

billsbackto81 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Colts/Jets trade definitely burned us at the moment. But,.... Does anyone else think a "behind the scenes" deal was already in place? Getting a 3rd for Tyrod definitely had the feel of a pending future transaction with the Browns. Unfortunately the Jets screwed that up jumping to 3. Now the only game is with the Giants if they covet a particular. Hope the friendship between Gettleman and Beane is on good terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) I think 8 is a good spot. Chicago doesn't have a 3rd rounder. Pick 65 probably gets it done now. Guarantees you one of the top 4 QB's, Chubb, Nelson, Barkley or one of the 2 LB's. Edited March 23, 2018 by BuffaloRebound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
