17 Josh Allen Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Based on this chart we have a great chance at Sam Darnold with a trade up to the Colts to get him. Also if this Bills could get the QB they want at 12 man I would love to have 5 more great players in the top 96 picks. We would be sitting really good with lots of talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zevo Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) I think taking Lamar Jackson is as big of a swing as taking josh Allen....i do like the argument of why wouldn’t you want to take the biggest swing you can when grabbing a qb....i am all for Lamar at 12....he just hasn’t received enough air time through this draft process due to the fact he didn’t hire an agent which i think was a big mistake...i literally know nothing about his leadership or what kind of intangibles he offers as a qb other than his downright filthy athleticism. Also with the state of our oline...he has the ability to survive. Edited April 13, 2018 by zevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjv001 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 His rankings suggest our best draft strategy is to stay at 12 and take Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I love those graphics! I have not gone through the content yet, but the visualization is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflaBill Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I think the Bills are going to sit at 12 and get Jackson. My thought is Beane sees the how how dynamic he is as an athlete. The danger he presents with this legs (like Cam). Understands hes not ready to be a day 1 starter and sitting for a year with some packages can really help. Keeping all of their draft picks to then build around him with tons of cap room next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherChazz Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Completely random, but is Edge just a different term for Defensive End? Why do I feel like this is the first year I've seen and heard it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do I feel like this is the first year I've seen and heard it? It's not a new term. It's either a DE in a 4-3 or an OLB in a 3-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Can someone tell me who Luke Easterling is? Scout? Never heard of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadLandsMeanie Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 If we get Jackson at 12, does that include his mom? Or do we need to spend a separate pick on his mom who is grafted to his hip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do I feel like this is the first year I've seen and heard it? Edge is essentially your rushing DE or OLB in 3-4. Typically plays a 7Tech on the weak side opposite TE (if there is one). Isn't known to be good against the run, and often is told to think pass rush first run second. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have single handedly inspired me to hope Rosen is traded up for at 2. Fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understands hes not ready to be a day 1 starter and sitting for a year with some packages can really help. Keeping all of their draft picks to then build around him with tons of cap room next year. If given the chance, Belichick will trade ahead of the Dolphins and Bills pick to take Jackson. I totally believe he's the top QB on his board, and he's salvaging thinking about not having to spend high draft picks or big free agent money on the OL and RB positions. Seeing what Watson did with his old coach Bill OBrien sealed the deal for him wanting Jackson. The reason they've been trading for draft picks this year is to trade up to get him. I also believe that Jackson's high on Beane's QB pecking order. Jackson and Watson are the future of the league. It's just too hard to find and keep a decent enough offensive line to protect non elusive QBs from the insanely skilled edge rushers coming into the league.

TheBeane Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Well if Luke is putting together Cleveland's draft board, then it would explain Jackson coming in for a visit. Go get 'em Brownies!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My impression is that Beane wants a big pocket passer. Some think he might be interested in Josh Allen because of arm strength and size comparison to Cam. One of the concerns with Jackson, merited or not, is whether he can hold up. Is he likely to be another RG3 or not? I don't think your surmise is completely implausible, but it is counter to most of what I have heard/read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
