Beane didn't have what was required to trump what the Jets could offer the Colts: namely a high draft slot. The Colts moved back a mere 3 spots ( about as safe as could be) and scored 3 second rounders for practically nothing. A move back to 12 incorporated risk for the Colts , and removed them from scoring another potential deal in the trade up for a QB market. The 6th pick fit that nicely. It wasn't happening for the Bills because they lacked the currency to give the Colts what they wanted. Expand Or they dont mind moving back to 12. AND saw an opportunity to get great value to mive tk 6. And are going to deal 6 to Bills for more picks. And then Bills can use 6 as a launching point to get to Two. ?

Expand If the Bills are indeed unable to move up, wouldn't it be due to teams not wanting to trade back ? It seems unlikely they would move to 12 just to stay there.

And then Bills can use 6 as a launching point to get to Two. ? Expand That's exactly what I mean. There wasn't a need to move all the way back to 12 with the free picks they got to move to 6. If they stay at 6 they still get a top player that falls to them and scored extra picks in the process. They're in no worse position at 6 than they were at 3 and could move back again.
BillsfanAZ Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 Every spot has a price tag but sometimes the price it too high. I would be ok with Beane over spending a little bit but he cant give away this years and next years draft to do it.

So you are gonna pay 3000 points for a 2000 point pick.

Kirby Jackson Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 So 2 tradeups it is? 12 & 22 for 5 and 71 5, 53, 65, 71 and a 2019 4th for 2 & 220 Bills pick 2, 56, 96, 121, 158, 166, 220 8 1

Rosen is my guy but Mayfield at 5-7 is the best value if they like him. Expand So they would not only have to move up, but also must pick the player YOU like as opposed to the one they might like ? It makes one wonder why you would bother following the team. Just strange to me. I'd like them to move up to 2 the most because it would give them the most possible options - 3 out of the 4 top ranked QBs. That's the best scenario for the FO, rather than hoping their target falls to them. So that's what I prefer.

Expand That is the draft for you.....nothing is set in stone including how good the player is gonna be Lets say the bills did get the 3.....in that situation we were guaranteed one of the top 3 guys.....the jets panicked and gave up a ton to move up. And in the end......some guy like Mike White may end up being the best QB to come out of the draft....it happens.

Which do you think is worse/ better? Expand Is this in case the QB doesn't pan out? Is that overpay? There is a chance the traded picks don't pan out either. I am in the camp of get a QB with one more trade up. But if you have to trade up twice, get it done

NickelCity Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 I hope they're trying like hell. I had a dream last night where we didn't trade and the blue chip qb's were off the board by 12. We didn't draft one until the 4th. I was so relieved when I woke up.

PromoTheRobot Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 We will trade the farm to move up, draft whoever, which 2/3 of the people here will hate, and the Pats will take Rudolph, Lauletta or White and they will be geniuses. 2 1
