Bangarang Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 1 minute ago, Watkins90 said: Yup. Mack will be a Hall of Fame player. The Bears have a stacked roster they made better with getting Mack. They could afford to not have two first round picks for him because of that. If it would have just been a first and maybe a future second or third, yes. Go for it. But Buffalo is going to need all it can to improve this roster. You guys act like Mack is coming off of several Super Bowl victories. The Raiders never made it out of the Wild Card without him. If we got Mack and were still terrible this year and next. Everyone would be screaming that it was a stupid move around the draft. Bills fans want to preserve that first round pick so they can pound the table to take a guard with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are likely going to have a very high pick which we can use on Bosa or Oliver. That gives us the elite pass rusher we need without sacrificing any future picks or cap space.

But ours was so f'ing anemic I just wanna dream. In a day w/o any positives, I'm just pretending Mack coulda been ours. Sad, I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, but it is all speculation at this point. The guy is a game changer. Substitute Lawson for Mack and I think our defense looks a lot different.

Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I would've traded for Mack. Think of it as getting White, Edmunds, and Mack on your D for 4 1st round picks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure your chances of missing are somewhat high if that’s what you’re referring to. But there are other factors like having them under rookie contracts, 4 to 5 years younger/fresher. So if you hit on those draft picks, you’re going to be a perennial contender for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about JP Losman and CJ Spiller? Sammy Watkins and Donte Whitner? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a day w/o any positives, I'm just pretending Mack coulda been ours. Sad, I know. He probably couldn’t have been. Raiders wanted to trade him out of conference . They gave two firsts. What would it have taken to persuade them to mov eMack in conference. The Jets and Browns wanted him too. It’s not all that simple. The Bears have a QB already and a top ten D. They were building toward this. The Bills are still at ground zero and need to draft a top WR and OL. Heck, maybe even another QB. They just weren’t close enough to make that deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the key. You're making this sound way easier than it is. No one knows who is the HOF players are, then you have one, that you even agree is one up for grabs. You go and get him. No one knew Khalil Mack would turn into what he is. You say HOF players are drafted every year like it's easy to find them. I'll give you the benefit of hindsight, who are the HOF players drafted from the last 3 years? I'm sure you can't predict them. You're simplifying things, no ****, it's easy for anyone to say a future Hall of Famer comes out every year, you just have to find them.
