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. 

 

Terry Pegula is not letting go Beane even if draft is bad.  He has assembled too much talent in front office.

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. 

I doubt we would see it from the Bills, just based on what we know they look for as far as character. But I actually see that as less of a 'boom or bust' scenario than if Beane were to trade up for Bjorn Robinson. If he does that and misses, it's worst case scenario since it would be on a rd 1 RB. 

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Beane's history is c/w giving away draft picks to go up and draft guys.  

This team needs multiple starters to emerge from this draft over the next two years at WR, OL, LB, and DL. He would be better off trading out of the first round and picking up an extra day 2 pick.  I would much rather have 4 top 100 picks instead of three. 

[CaptnCoke11]

I can’t see Beane giving away future picks to move up in this draft.  The high end talent just isn’t there this year.  This team also needs a lot of cheap controlled contracts for the next handful of years.  Giving up high picks isn’t the way to achieve that. 

[BillsFanForever19]

I see all the rumors and am skeptical about it. We have a lot to do in this Draft. I don't see him giving up our 2nd this year. I could see him banking on that 3rd comp next year and using a 3rd next year. I don't know how far a 3rd this year and a 3rd next year would get us. 

 

I see a hypothetical move up being for Quentin Johnston. OBJ visiting the Jets could mean he's out. We did look into DeAndre Hopkins, but my guess is they feel they can't afford the cost of the contract.

 

Johnston is the only true Outside WR with the blend of size, speed, and athleticism I think they're looking for in Round 1 and is at least just out of reach at 27.

 

I think they will Draft OL prospects, but I don't think they're looking for someone to outright replace Spencer Brown this year. And I don't see them trading up for a Guard.

A middle linebacker will not be the difference maker that Bijan Robinson would on this team.  

 

A middle linebacker isn't putting this team over the top.

 

Bijan Robinson is talented. But we're covered at RB. We've already spent a 2nd Round Pick on James Cook and a 5th Round Pick on Nyheim Hines in less than a year. Then we went out and signed Damien Harris to compliment them.

 

There's zero chance they then spend a 1st Round Pick AND trade up for one after what they've already done. Less so with the holes we have to fill.

 

And I've said this a million times, but I'll say it again - McDermott has only ever dressed 3 RB's on Game Day. 2 true RB's and 1 RB/ST. Nyheim Hines will dress for the latter role. Meaning 1 of Cook and Harris would be made inactive on Game Day. I don't think they signed Damien Harris to be our TJ Yeldon/Matt Breida "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" inactive RB.

 

Cook, Harris, and Hines is a very solid core to dress on Game Day. Especially with how we tend to use RB here. I get liking Bijan's talent. But we have too much to do elsewhere to be making CJ Spiller-esque upgrade luxury picks. Picking him and especially trading up for him is nonsense.

[hondo in seattle]

Beane may indeed move up.  He's done it before.

 

But I wonder about that approach.  Needless to say, the deeper you go to into the draft, the less chance you have of finding an All-Pro.  And that's what you need.  Jags, even if they earn a starting role, don't win Lombardi's.  

 

But does it make more sense to package a bunch of picks to move up and increase the odds that your first rounder is a difference-maker?  Or trade back in the draft to get more picks?  For example, would you rather have two second round picks or one first round pick?  Let's say a guy taken around Pick 10 has a 35% chance of being a All-Pro.  If second rounders have a 18% chance of being an All-Pro, you're marginally better going with two second rounders.  Forget the trade chart - I'd like to see an analytics guy or gal take a hard look at this.  

 

It depends on the details of course but my hunch is that it's better to have a lot of picks than just a few good ones.  The more darts you throw at the dartboard, the more likely you are to hit the bullseye.

 

In other words, I hope Beane doesn't trade up.  But if he does, I'm praying he's right - even if I am an agnostic Buddhist.

If anything I could see a scenario like last year where he's prepared to move up a few spots to grab the last player they have a 1st round grade on.  

 

The idea that Beane made a few phone calls to do some due diligence and something leaked would be plausible.  The idea that anyone would know what position he'd be trading up for I don't see how that could be anything more than a guess by the writer.

Your take on Hines is just false. We just handed him 4 million dollars in cash as a restructure to keep him. Teams are not in the business of giving someone 4 million dollars if they aren't in the plans. We also gave up a 5th Round Pick to acquire him not even a year ago. Not to mention 2 million plus in Dead Cap to release him. Hines is going nowhere.

 

We also spent a 2nd on Cook less than a year ago. Slowly worked him into the lineup and by the end of the year, he was showing growth. You don't spend a 2nd on a RB and when he shows development, then spend a 1st on another. That's insane.

 

If we had a solid roster with depth all over the place and Robinson was there at 27, maybe. But the fact is we lack depth in places, have outright holes at other places, and don't have cap space to fill them all. 

 

Drafting Robinson and especially trading up for him is incredibly shortsighted. This idea is like Buddy Nix drafting CJ Spiller.

Good breakdown. I'm not really in love with any of the WRs in this draft. None of them seem to be true number one Wrs. 

 

I'm not crazy about moving up for a WR in this class. However, every year there seems to be Wrs that outperform their expectations. That's likely the case this year too. Johnston could definelty fall into this category.

I don't see it.  As others have said, Beane really doesn't like trading picks from future years, so there's that.

 

Beyond that, I'm thinking that Beane and McDermott are more comfortable with their existing personnel than most of us fans are. I'm not saying they're right, because I certainly think they need more offensive line help.  I'm saying that whether they're right or wrong, that's what they think. 

 

There's a current thread with a link to video of some ESPN guy saying the Bills are obviously still the team to beat, or one of the teams to beat.  It's important to remember that.  The Bills do not have a personnel crisis - they are a very good team trying to get better, and they have somewhat limited resources.  

 

I don't know anything about the pool of guys coming out of college, but all I see is that it's a relatively weak class.   If that's true, Beane knows it, and I think knowing it's a weak class will make Beane MORE reluctant to trade up.   If it's a weak class, he's probably less likely to make a bold move.  

 

But what do I know?  As in previous years, I'm going to sit and watch, and then I'll try to understand what Beane was thinking.

There is no way this is possible. By comparison, in 2018, KC moved up 17 spots, from 27 to 10 to draft Mahomes, and we got their 2018 first and 2017 third (91).

I understand fans wanting this.

 

IMO the likelihood of Beane doing it in a year when he already has less than seven picks is less than 10%. He'd have to get a great deal.

 

"Why not use a future draft pick when the heat is on now for a successful pick," you ask? 

 

Jeez, where do I start?

 

First, because the heat is on every year for a successful draft, and you're screwing yourself next year, which is a draft that looks like it will provide a lot more good players than this year's class.

 

Second, because trading up and giving up significant resources in the trade is a proven losing strategy. Moving up a spot or two and giving up late-rounders much less so, but giving up big resources (except when chasing a franchise QB) has proven very consistently to be a poor strategy. Once you get to trading away 3rds or even 4ths, you're hurting yourself far more often than helping.

 

Massey-Thaler and many many other studies make this very clear.

 

Oh, and Beane's NOT on the hot seat outside your imagination. He's just not.

If they fortify the O line, I think Josh has the ability to make the passing game work and make some of our not so famous receivers excel. I also think Gabe Davis has a big bounce back year.

That’s a good point. It’s not coincidental that Allen’s best year so far was 2020 when the line was pretty darn good.

I’ll write what I do each year as just google the Jimmy Johnson or similar draft value charts before making suggestions as 7th round picks are only worth one point.  
 

If you have suggestions, then just look up the value of each position’s draft, then you’ll know around what capital you have to give up or gain moving up or down.

 

You guys are smart, so put a little thought and is this player worth say a 1st swap and a 2nd or 3rd.  I trust Beane  as he thought it was worth it last year to move up for Elam, and Benford was a surprise in RD 6.  
 

They might if they can find a trade partner.  For those beating the WR drum, is anyone really worth it to move up.  Maybe.  Just throwing ideas around with any he is kind of waste of time.

Agreed.  I hope I’m wrong, but I feel like we are likely doomed until we have someone else playing RT. I think the interior will be better minus Saffold.   Really hope we can land Browns replacement in the draft. And if Brown improves like Beane is hoping he does, we can probably trade him for a 3rd or 4th.

Wrong again. Hines is under contract for two more seasons. And Spotrac hasn't updated the contract since his restructure. But OTC has, it's a 2 million dollar dead cap hit (on top of the 4 million we paid up front and the 5th Round Pick we spent on him):

https://overthecap.com/player/nyheim-hines/6989

 

And you sort of answered your own question there. They didn't do all of that for him to "just return kicks". Both Beane and McDermott have said they could have used him more last season on Offense and expect to use him more this season, as he'll have a full offseason with the team and won't be learning the playbook midseason.

 

And I can guarantee you Damien Harris didn't sign here when he did in FA without guarantees that he'd get playing time. We didn't do that just to have him ride the pine on Sundays while Robinson and Cook are dressed (which is what would happen if we drafted Robinson). You might not be a fan or worry about his injury history - but they made the move. They're not just going to replace him weeks later bc you want more.

 

As for next year, even if Harris is gone, you worry about RB then if you need to. This year, the position is covered. We need to worry about the positions that aren't covered this year, rather than upgrading the RB core again and again when it isn't necessary. Again, we've already spent a 2nd and a 5th and signed Harris. The 2nd we paid on Cook (which is a high price for a RB these days) is proving dividends. Now we want to delegate him to RB2 as he's showing growth after the price we paid? Why?

 

And no one is saying trade up for a Defensive player. The rumor isn't even for a Defensive player. The OP got that wrong. The rumor is a skill position player or an OL.

 

In my eyes, this rumored trade up is most likely for a pass catcher. You talk about RB and "what happens if". But look at WR. We've got Diggs and Davis on the outside. Davis underachieved last season. And when one of them needs a breather, we want to put more than 2 on the field, or God forbid one of them gets hurt - it's Trent Sherfield time. We need another outside WR.

 

And TE? We've got Knox and Morris and nothing else. Knox isn't a top tier TE to begin with. If we want to use 2 TE sets, Knox and Morris doesn't scare anyone. If Knox gets hurt, then what? 

 

This isn't even a run heavy team. Allen needs more reliable pass catchers then he had last season. Harty in the slot hopefully helps. But he still needs more. We were in on Hopkins and OBJ for a reason. But neither panned out. Now the Draft is the only real option. If it's for a Skill Player, it shouldn't be and won't be for a RB.

 

If they want to add another developmental player in the later Rounds, that's fine. But in the first few Rounds we need to be looking at WR, LB, TE, and OL.
