Klaista2k Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Not exactly sure why but I have a bad feeling that Rudolph could be the quarterback we end up taking. Maybe it's because him and Beane are both from the Carolina's, or perhaps it's because we traded up to 12th (a position that he should be available) After reading his scouting report I really hope we aren't considering taking this guy! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I'd have no problem drafting him @ 22, but 12 should go to LB or Vea. After Lamar's weak pro day today, it's either trade up to 2 for Rosen or 4 for Mayfield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrober38 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Six QBs aren't getting picked in round 1. The talk of Rudolph going 12th overall is insane. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I think you're safe. I don't see it happening. I simply don't believe that they turned down both Mahomes and Watson last year and then spent all this time and effort offloading talent and accruing draft picks....just to draft the 6th rated quarterback prospect in this class. It doesn't make any sense. It's definitely possible, of course, but I don't view it as likely. I also don't think Rudolph will end up being a 1st round pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have any information regarding the Bills rankings of QBs. All we have is a public ranking. The public ranking might not be the ranking for a lot of teams. Teams are thinking about fits in their system, in their locker room so on and so forth and nobody has the inside track on that information except for that team. Honestly, I'm not going to get invested. I have my preference but I'll just wait to see who we pick up because my 1-6 might not be Beane and McDermott's.

slaphappy Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Broncos are going to be the first shock of the draft and leave Mayfield there for a defensive player. We swoop in and take him with the next pick. Mark it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codyny13 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I’d be okay with him, but not in the first, I’d be cool at 53. I don’t trust that arm, seems questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I think most fans are overestimating the speed at which the QBs are going to come off the board this year. To think that the first five picks will all be quarterbacks is silly to me. I believe that a couple of the consensus top four QBs will fall into the 6-10 range, and that's where the Bills will ultimately wind up trading up and selecting a passer. When draft season started, I wanted the Bills to make sure to procure a top 3 spot. I now think that's probably not necessary. Time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins Malone Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Well known of us know how any of these guys will turn out...but drafting him at 12 to me is a huge reach. I definitely dont think they moved to 12 thinking of Rudolph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I get a bad feeling from the meatball sub I had tonight or from the political climate or kids getting killed in school or relatives that have cancer it's a quarterback and these guys know more than we do give them their chance and relax a little. You're not going to get a guy you want if we can't move up so stop setting yourself up for disappointment and attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 SO many experts that know Rudolph is no good. I think That there is a very reasonable chance that he will be better than at least 2 of the “top 4” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan17 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Had Buffalo not traded up to 12th, I'd be a bit different about Rudolph. I am a fan of Mason- can be argued tooth and nail for or against, that's not the point. Point is, once we traded Tyrod then made the move up to 12, then starting to bring in all the top QBs for visits... To much momentum not to come away with a bluechip.

Doc Brown Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 There's only one thing that terrifies me about the draft and that's giving up a king's ransom to trade up for Josh Allen. If this was the '13 draft, Rudolph would pry be the #1 rated QB so I'm not going to complain if they decide to take Rudolph at 12 or 22 if we can't find a trading partner to get Rosen/Mayfield/Darnold. I trust the scouts and Beane/McDermott more than the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Never really understood the Bryce Petty comparisons. He is bigger, started more games and was more productive than Petty. The OSU Offense is wacky, but its a lot closer to Oklahoma than what Briles was running at Baylor when Petty was there. I think Rudolph is a incredibly underrated prospect and think he may end up going earlier than a lot of people think right now. He seems to have everything you'd like for in a Quarterback. The one knock I have on him is I dont think he fits into a west coast type offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swnybillsfan Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 as far as Rudolph is concerned, i think his "DNA" fits exact;y what the McBeane is looking for. hard working, strong faith (grandfather was a preacher), high character, leader, long time starter with a good size body of work, improvement from year to year, production...all the stuff that you can't really coach. he would definitely fit the process.

ALF Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) I would think Lamar and Rudolph would go in the 2nd rd at best unless the scouts see more potential then me. I would not reach for either one at #22 . Curious what Rudolph's wonderlic score is. I'm getting more impressed with Drafttek , I think Lamar will drop further after his pro day and wonderlic https://www.drafttek.com/2018-NFL-Draft-Prospect-Rankings/Top-QBs.asp Edited March 30, 2018 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfod Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) I'm confident in Beane. When he puts shades on he looks like he jumped out of the Matrix. Right now I am in observation mode. I think I'll just give this GM the benefit of the doubt. It's his first draft as the Bills GM. I understand everyone has preferences and dislikes. I've seen a lot of variety in opinions. I decided to read the speculation but take it all with a grain of salt. I'm sure some one might have guessed it all right, and kudos to them in advance. It's supposed to be entertaining and fun. Don't get your undies in a bunch dreaming of every worse case scenario. I think Beane has more riding on this draft than the average fan. This draft defines him as a Bills GM. What I am saying is, I'm not going to judge anything. If he drafts Rudolph oh well. It's his job on the line. Yea I want Beane to be good. I don't want to start over again. I want this GM and HC to be successful. Terry Pegula is trying the path that I would want. He is trying up and coming instead of some one well known who failed for another team. At least this GM and HC are hungry and have something to prove. Let it play out man. It will pass or fail and it doesn't matter how we feel about it. If we draft Rudolph or Jackson oh well. Hope they don't bust. If he doesn't trade up for top prospect then be prepared to settle on a guy like Rudolph.

JM57 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Rudolph is a firm #5 out of the top 6 QBs for me. I really don't want him. Definitely not at 12. I'll settle at 22 if he's all that's left. Rankings would go something like this with gaps for preference: Rosen/Mayfield Darnold Jackson Rudolph Allen Edited March 30, 2018 by JM57 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say I trust scout and our GM more than fans and Allen from what I've read is rated much higher than a number of posters have him. Come draft time we'll see.
