Surprised BAL traded with us knowing they need CB help. Elam has all the qualities to be good so with solid coaching hoping he and Tre are a great duo for quite som3 time!

Clearly Baltimore wasn’t concerned about CB.. smart trade down by them.

Except reports were the Cards wanted Allen over Rosen.  My point is, can you really declare a pick a failure right after it was made?  People declared Allen a bust right out of the gate and how well did that age?  You don't like the move, you're entitled to that opinion.  But it's too early to declare this was a mistake.  Time will tell.

I was agreeing with you - how people complain a player would still be there but there is always a chance a team that could come in and jump them.  Gms make these moves based on knowledge/experience the casual fan doesn't have

we won’t land him.   we gave up Breece Hall, our 4th, to grt Elam with Booth still likely there at 25 

Wait so you’re saying the Bills would’ve gotten Hall and Booth if they stayed at 25? One of them was going to fall to the 4th round?

If Beane felt there was a need to trade up I’m going to trust him. Nobody here is in on their conversations or knows why he traded up.

 

I like the pick. It fills probably the biggest need the team had.

 

 

 

He just said that Elam was the last player on their board with a 1st Round grade so they wanted to ensure they got their man.

Listening to Beane's presser on Twitter.  Elam was the only player they had left on their board with a 1st round grade.  They were concerned about a "run" after KC's pick, so he moved up to insure they got their guy.

Link?

I wonder if KC got our guy

If any poster ever says Beane drafts BPA again they should be banned for two weeks 

This is ridiculous.  He could have traded down and gotten an extra 4th and got the same player. 

Every dam year Beane gives up picks for no reason. 

Dude....u high????

Yes, another one.  Like taking that bum Allen when Rosen was still available? 😁

Exactly. That was the year it clicked that Im not a GM and to come on a message board and act holier than thou bc i disagree with one of the best GMs in the game is just plain embarrassing. To the people blasting this pick... duh fuh do you think you know?! Step off the high horse and get over yourselves. If you were that gifted you sure wldnt be here posting. Kinda silly. Besides, there are only a handful of people here who have actually put the time and work in scouting. Id venture most people complaining didnt know any of these names a few months ago...

Might have seen 2 posters from TBD on the draft today. 

 

Just before the Bills pick was announced, the camer swoops over the shoulder of someone wearing a Bills hard hat.I swear that was Mark Vader. He does go to the draft.

Just before the Cowboys picked (right after the Bills) they showed the Dallas fans. I saw  Cowgirls Fan. I am Facebook friends with her and  met her in person at a game here in Buffalo.
