thebandit27 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 As I said before: Miller does a great job with scouting, but his info is unreliable.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Smoke. But: 1) Baker 2) Barkley 3) Allen That's about the best start to the draft one could hope for from our perspective. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Fake news. If they think the Bills are interested in Allen because of all the mock drafts saying they are then they would love for them to trade up to 2 and take him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Yesterday they were making a late push for Rosen... I think they may just be trying to throw teams off their scent (Mayfield). id be thrilled if the Jets actually took Allen though! lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderGun Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) If Rosen/Darnold are sitting there at 5, I can't see Elway passing up on one of them or trading out of that spot. Buffalo will have to get 4 in order to be certain they can land their guy. Still hoping crossing my fingers that Allen/Darnold go 1/3 and then Buffalo gets its pick of Baker(!) or Rosen, I'd be happy with either, but preferably Mayfield.

They do both. They obviously need to figure out who other teams might take so they can see who will be available to them.

Chuck Wagon Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I can't be the only one feeling like somehow Beane is going to walk out of this with Rosen or Darnold and only having given up 12 / 53 / 56. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irv Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I love coaches who would rather pick a guy who can't play but has the physical tools rather than pick the guy that can. Total EJ Manuel logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut instinct all along has been that the Jets (and Bills for that matter) would be higher on Allen than they were on Mayfield or Rosen. But having said that, I could easily see the sudden rumors of the Jets preferring both Josh's over Darnold as a smokescreen. It accomplishes one of two things: 1. If the Bills want one of the Josh's and the Jets want Darnold, it gets the Bills to sacrifice valuable assets to move up higher than necessary to get their guy. 2. If the Bills want Darnold and the Jets want Darnold, it gets the Bills to think they can safely wait and move up to 4 or 5 instead of 2 and end up allowing the Jets to get their guy instead.

BuffaloRebound Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 2 minutes ago, nbbillsfan said: Seems like smoke, potentially to trick bills into thinking they don’t need to trade up to 2. Agreed. In what world would a coaching staff on its last legs be banging the table for a guy who has to sit a year like Allen? I actually think Darnold is more ready to play than Allen but needs to sit also. This is why you don’t give up the farm for pick 3 two months before the draft. Mayfield and Rosen could both be gone by 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe throw in a late rounder this year and a late rounder next year. But I don't see them throwing like 4-5 picks from this year in the trade, they have way too many holes to fill. I'm hoping 12/22 to the Broncos 5 and maybe a 4th or 5th. 12 will still get you a top 10 talent with the expected run on QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
