Ya Digg? Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 If they trade up (using next years first) on a lineman this place will explode! just for the entertainment value of what people will say I kinda want it to happen! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roundybout Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 We’re going to trade up and take Bijan Robinson and watch the board servers implode like the Death Star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 we have something of extreme value (josh) who is guarding something of extreme value (the ball). on every single play there are some very big dangerous men with bad intentions trying to hurt, maim or send our thing of value to the hospital. yet many are content to not properly invest, guard or protect our thing of extreme value on every single play. instead they would rather hire little people who are far away from the thing of value and use them on an occasional basis. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 51 minutes ago, FrenchConnection said: On the other hand, this draft is pretty weak from top to bottom. If you could trade up to get a single actual difference maker it might be better to do that than drafting a bunch of mediocre starters. Just a thought. That’s another way of looking at it, but the rumor going around is that Beane may be looking to trade up for an offensive skill player or o-line. In my opinion, there will be quality NFL starting caliber offensive linemen available at 27 and well into the 2nd round. I can’t think of a single offensive skill player, other than Bijan Robinson, that would be worth trading up for. Certainly none of the WRs, IMO. Which players do you think are worth giving up precious draft assets for? Especially since you claim that this draft is “pretty weak from top to bottom.” A statement with which I don’t entirely disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twist_to_open Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 We're what? Two weeks from the draft? And a slow news period. I think this is just click bait and easy speculation because of Beans past history of trading up. I don't think we have the draft capital this year to be movers and shackers. Wouldn't be surprised if we just use the picks we have to fill holes and get depth on cheap rookie contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I value RBs, particularly on this roster. Bijan immediately becomes the 2nd to 4th most talented player on the entire team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo the pressure is on Beane to make this draft work and fortifying Josh would be the best bet, whether it be a stud RB, a top tier WR or a OL to help solidify the trenches. To me it’s really between a stud RB or a mainstay OL because to hear Beane a top WR isn’t as important as one would think. Not having an abundance of draft picks this year I expect Beane to tap into the the 2024 draft resource to make this happen, either using a day 2 or 3 pick to move up in this year’s draft. Why not use a future draft pick when the heat is on now for a successful draft. If Beane comes up short this year he may not have to worry about next year’s draft. there is a WHOLE TOPIC for you to post this into already.

I believe the Giants (Fans) wanted an upgrade to their QB so that's why that had those "vibes" In this case you may be right because the vibes this year are~ no ILB OR WR?

Offense all the way, but don't move up! You're probably moving up to get what will turn out to be Sammy Watkins, when you could have just sat where you were and gotten OBJ!

He’s like 5’6 with cleats on and 165 lbs after Thanksgiving dinner. We do not need to waste any draft pick on a #6 or #7 receiver when we have Harty, Sherfield, and Hines to handle our PR/KR and speedy gadget role. Trade up or down is fine, but we need 3 quality starters out of this draft and preferably they come at some of the following positions: RT, WR, LB, DE I like his tape. He’s a WR, not a gadget. Good route runner. He’s 5’8 and didn’t run a blazing 40 for his size. Probably a 3rd rounder that could go in the 2nd. Explosive on the field and a strong catcher.

But he has been incredibly durable and productive while a guy the Bills seem to be consider 6'2 213 LB WR Michael Wilson has only been on the field for 14 games over the last 3 seasons.

Billz4ever Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Taking a RB in the first round is already questionable as it is. Trading up to take a RB in the first round is just plain dumb. Why do people think it's still 1995? You don't need stud RBs to win a SB and the past decade of SB winners demonstrates that. There is just no value in taking RBs that high. If it's not Robinson still there at #27, then forget about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NastyNateSoldiers Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Anyone interested in trading up for Jalen Carter if he falls to mid teens? Some compare him to Warren Sapp and if he’s that guy I say it’s a no brainer . Warren Sapp fell in the draft due to character concerns as well and he turned out to be a hall of fame player.
