I'm not sure it matters anyways, more and more it's looking like we can have Rosen at 5 or lower. Not to argue that we should have, but we could have tried to trade with someone like Tampa. Then trade up again to 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes not hitching the future to case keenum lets be real. 2,4, or 6 is our options He needs to win now to keep his job. Best bet is to get good players. He has a serviceable QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Yeah, Denver's not taking a QB. They'll trade out if they get a good offer. Who's willing to give it is the key. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So again it is just excuses saying that we couldn't get to a pick to take a QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Beane knows this Imagine if we trade up to 5 or 6 and take Rosen, one month after Bills fans were crying we got locked out by the Jets. This is why you don't rush things and let the draft come to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do, I will have no complaints. That's all I'm saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) Am I the only one who isn't buying this? How do you know they wouldn't move if we were at 5. I also think there is some posturing going on between Beane and Gettleman through media leaks. Having said that, at 5 we may be fine. And, Gettleman realizes if he wants to trade down he needs a partner. Edited April 23, 2018 by horned dogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 But I also saw it reported that the Giants and Bills had a trade in place? I hate the weeks before the draft. Stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets made a dumb move, they don't even know what they traded for yet. I don't know why the Colts made the trade without waiting until draft night to see what offers they can get. My best guess is they decided they don't want to trade lower than 6 so it wasn't worth waiting around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 This could save the Bills from overspending. Gettleman can draft his "HOF RB" who will probably play second fiddle to some guy drafted in round 3 who comes out of nowhere and lights up the league, like seems to happen every year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFL Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 29 minutes ago, BuffAlone said: I expect that's the case. But, zero chance we move up for Jackson...or Allen. We gotta bid high, or fold. Or settle for our money back. I hope Beane goes all in. This is the time. Personally, Rosen, Darnold, or defense for me. Otherwise we're just slinging monies hoping to buy in Seeing that we were ranked 29th vs the run on D, and Im pretty sure we allowed the most td’s by the run (22).....I would be disappointed if we dont get a monster on D. Im thinking LB and QB.....or the other way around in the first round. You cant win games if you cant get your D off the field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume One of the Big 3 Mayfield Darnold or Rosen. Its not like I expect this to go down until about half way thru Denver's time on the clock if its to be. I mean this whole not targeting #2 can also be the Bills releasing some info to see if the Giants blink Edited April 23, 2018 by ddaryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carter Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Must be a smokescreen. I really want beane and mcD to be successful and stick with Buffalo, if this is true, bad news for their future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
