What do the Giants do?  Pick Chubb, a qb, trade out?  I can't see Nelson at 2.  To be clear, I would not take Barkley at 2.

 

I think they trade out of it. Gettleman's long tangent on depth the other day seemed like he was more than open to trading back. If I were them I'd take Rosen, assuming Darnold is gone. I'd trade back or take Chubb I guess.

I hope they trade out of it.  We are the most logical trade partner.

The Giants are taking a QB.

That would make the most sense.  It is also patently the worst thing that could happen for the Bills.  One would have to scramble and probably pay a fortune to get the fourth qb off the board.

Here's a reasonable 1st round mock where I had the Bills move up to 6, giving up 12, 21, and a 4th. I know it would probably cost more, but the mock site wouldn't let me do "unreasonable" offers. I didn't do any other trades, because, jesus, that's a rabbit hole once you start doing it. I think the Bills can do something like this without giving away the farm. There is no reason to move up to 2, unless there is only ONE guy they want for QB. 

 

If Rosen does not get picked in the first three, it is perfectly reasonable for the Bills to move into the top ten for him, without giving away 22. Although, I do think it might cost them 22 to eventually do so.

1) The QB rush doesn't happen as forecasted. I think Darnold and Mayfield slide 

2) The Bills don't trade up to #4 or #5 for their QB, they make something work in the #8-#10 range. 

3) The Giants pass on a QB at #2, but trade up in the late first for one. 

4) Mike McGlinchey goes in top 10. 

 

Also I expect this.  Some teams are really going to go for the hype and be taken for suckers.

Here's where I'm at right now.

 

1. Cle: Darnold- There are way too many good football minds in that room right now to screw this one up

 

2. Jets: Mayfield- I think the Jets pull a move to make sure they get their guy. Giants like picking up a free pick or 2 and still get Thier guy with zero risk.

 

3. Giants: Chubb- I think they improve their pass rush and get a value back later on.

 

4. Cle: James-another Could be Fitzpatrick or Barkley as well

 

5. BUFFALO: Josh Allen- Just thinking this is who they will take. Also, I always get the Bills pick wrong...so hopefully this means we don't take him. 

 

Past that (and assuming we have to give up both 1sts to outbid Arizona) I see us moving around quite a bit in the draft. I'll wager that we take 2 picks where we are currently scheduled and the rest we slide up and down the board.

 

My best guess is Rosen ends up in Arizona.

Yep.  That 6 QB rating against Colorado last year really looked good.   And the 30 rating against Iowa.

Rosen falls out of the top 5 and we move up to number 7 to take him. I'm not sure what the formula is to get him but it will probably take another pick in this draft.

The lowest I could see him is 4 yet  think he goes to the Giants at 2.
