gjv001 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'm thinking that the Bills, based on the Draft Trade Value Charts, will appear to grossly overpay to move up and select a QB. Thus having the Draft Pundits of the world criticising their decision. This will certainly put a damper on the remainder of the Draft, but probably has to be done in order to get out of QB purgatory.

KDIGGZ Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 They will only feel that way if they move up for Allen. There will be riots in the streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly believe that is just because we have all been so fine with an overpayment. Unless they go into the top 2 I think that you will see a pretty standard trade. They will pay a premium but nothing out of control. In another thread I suggested 12, 53, 65 & a 2019 4th for 6 & 100. Based on both of the charts the Bills would be paying a 3rd and a 2019 4th above the chart values. That’s expensive for sure but not crippling.

Not if it's for a QB. The Jets grossly overpaid to move from 6 to 3, and the pundits have mentioned the overpay but have for the most part agreed it's ok if they did it for their franchise QB.

CajunBillsBacker Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 If the pick in year two throws 25 TD’s, and 8 INT’s, completes 62% of his passes and leads the Bills to the playoffs. No one will even remember or care what the Bills gave up. Does anyone really remember or care what the Eagles gave up for Wentz at this point?

Roch_Paul Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Scenario A.. BIlls do some crazy trade like both 1st and both 2nds... and maybe more to get 2nd overall. Scenario B.. BIlls stay where they are and shore up LB (HUGE need .. we have none!), WR (big need), OL (HUGE need) and DL (big need) with rest of draft. We need a RB for the future too. If QB still available at 12 that is not a reach, vs the rest of the board... take him. Don't take a QB there just for the sake of taking one. I'd see the future from scenario A as a team with no OL to protect the very expensive QB... Andrew Luck take 2? This will be compounded by having a defense that can't stop anybody, forcing our QBs to pass every down and run for life because we have no OL. I'll take scenario B and beat scenario A's ass for several years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get the pick right and this QB turns into something special. I would not care if it was 4 number one picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsVet Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Is there a moratorium on non-panicky fans posting. Seems like everyone is worried and anxious that nothing will work in Buffalo's favors. Trust the process during the season. Doubt McBeane in the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
