BigdaddyinOrlando Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I can see them moving if the person they like happens to fall and might be there at say pick 6 or 7, I’d say for Bosa or Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 That is interesting. He doesn’t specify they move up from 9. I could see them trading up to get back into the first. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) John must be reading the boards here. 10 draft picks aren't making this roster. Package some go get Bosa or Williams. Edited March 29, 2019 by MrEpsYtown 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could move up and acquire another second or third round pick I am all for it. I don’t think we have the ammo to move up in round 1. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Methinks better chance of moving down in round one (from 9) and better chance of moving up in rounds two through seven, even moving back up into end of round one after the initial move down. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsbackto81 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I don't know if there is a player worth moving up from 9 imo since we already have our QB but it does sicken me knowing the Jets will be in a position to draft either Bosa, Williams or Allen?

JoeF Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) Ten picks won't make this roster. Bills have enough roster fillers, they need another difference maker or two on defense that can improve pressure (either a 3 technique inside or an edge rusher or both) and on offense (TE to open the seam). I'd be fine pulling a "Ditka" to leverage and trade the existing 10 picks for something higher than 9, another first in the 20's and a high second...I know I am crazy...and it may not be doable.

HappyDays Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 It would not surprise me. They stocked up on later draft picks and filled holes in free agency. They gave themselves flexibility to move around. Although I would be surprised if we trade up in the 1st. Moving up from our 2nd round pick I could definitely see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That roster was coming off a 4-12 record in '86 and was on its way to a 7-8 record in '87. That roster had plenty of holes and Bennett helped plug a huge one. Acquiring Bennett immediately shifted the balance of power in the AFC East. If Beane sees a comparable impact player to be had higher up in the first round, he should make the move, "assets" be damned. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delete This Account Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Not saying it's going to happen or not. And certainly don't have any idea of who the Bills might target to move up. What I'm simply suggesting is Beane is more comfortable in going after a player he's targeting, than moving too far back and hoping a player he wants is still there. And that very much applies to this year's draft. Again, he could be very happy at staying at 9 and not moving based on his board and where the drop-off of talent begins.  This part is merely gut, as it wasn't discussed. As someone noted, the Bills have 10 picks, and it would make sense to use some of those assets to work from a position of strength and landing better players or players the Bills have higher on their board.  They did that twice last year.  jw     22 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsSbSoon Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I mean it does make sense. Were clearly going to move around the board in some fashion based off beanes history thus far. Weve got some depth now to make a move up and grab one of the top guys on their board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
