Stafford is a terrific player. Consider the team he took over. They were AWFUL. They have made the playoffs three times and should have won against Dallas in the 2014 playoffs if not for a ridiculously egregious call that handed the game to Dallas.

racketmaster Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) On WGR 550 this morning, Jordan Palmer said he really liked the Buffalo regime and he thought big things were coming. Kinda of like stay tuned but Howard was unable to get anything more out of him. For those who do not know, Palmer works closely with Darnold and Allen as their qb guru.

I think the idea of Cleveland trading the #1 pick is complete fantasy, but the physical would happen quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that’s kind of my point though. Bills roster has become pretty aweful. Three solid o line starters who basically made the running game work are gone. RB is 30, need talent at DT, DE, WR and linebacker situation is not good on top of that is the huge QB problem. outside of a very good secondary, this team needs major help. When you surrender that many picks, how do you fix these things? So im all for getting a good QB, but ya gotta do it responsibly and take some calculated risks to ensure the team gets some much need talent in the other spots. Aka unless you have one guy graded way above another, you need to play with the options and move up only as far as you have to to get your guy.

The Bills will have a TON of cap space next season and can go big in FA. Times are different now - lots of good players coming off of first contracts. The draft isn't the only path.

Geez, I know a certain team that's drafted a QB in the first round twice this decade; expand it to first to third round, they've drafted 5 QBs in the last 7 years. They've drafted a QB first overall in their history. I think their last "franchise QB" was ... who? Norm Snead? Otto Graham? Sure as heck longer than us. Point is, it's not always about taking chances on QBs. It's about drafting the right players, generally. Then you can take a chance on a little scrambling guy from Wisconsin in the 3rd round because you've already built a TEAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 90-100M like we were several weeks backs. Decent cap room but will get eaten up in a hurry with several needs easily between offense and defense. The 2019 signees will not all be top shelf blue chip players due to needs. Then there is the matter if we trade our 2019 first round pick. We are not on easy street this year and next year.

sleeby Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) I hate you guys. Why you gotta scare me like this? The bills had damned well better not sell the stadium for a one shot on the roulette wheel. That's WAY too much to pay. Hell, he would still need an oline and WRs! What would we do then? Start interviewing the buff state Bengals for seniors or drop out juniors to play for us? :o) If I were the browns I would make the deal for sure! They would totally own the draft this year with all those picks they have and all that we give them. Dang. Please no. Stay at 12 before giving it all away. Do it.
