MrEpsYtown Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Have to pack this away fro next draft season when Beane uses mid-late picks to get up and get guys he targeted. I'm fine with his strategy. That's two more draft picks who didn't make the team. 5 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I am amazed that no one claimed Malik Cunningham. Â Â Beane will play the long game on Austin and Broker. Â He will get them both back at some point. Â 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Too bad about Broeker, I liked him coming out, but Anderson and Van Denmark were better options for 23 and 24. Â Wouldn't be shocked if Broeker finds his way back here during the season as Houston churns through the bottom of its roster. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeBreton Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 The Bills traded down twice in the 2023 draft, they ended up with two picks in the 7th round (Broeker and Austin) but they also picked up two 6th round picks in 2024. So they didn't really lose much here.   Nick Broeker trade (pick 230):  Houston traded their 230 overall pick in Round 7 along with a 2024 sixth-rounder to the Bills to take Xavier Hutchinson at 205.  Alex Austin trade (pick 252):  Buffalo traded this sixth-round selection (215th) to Los Angeles in exchange for a seventh-round selection (252nd) and a 2024 sixth-round selection. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â To be honest Scott, I really don't care about all this bottom of the roster musical chairs teams play. Most of these guys are never going to amount to anything in this league which is why they are cut/claimed/etc. Â But I see a lot of Bills podcasters and media figures chest thumping over the fact 4 guys were claimed by other teams as if it actually means something. But kudos to this organization for another hollow accomplishment I guess and I'm sure KC and other serious contenders could care less as well about how much of their scraps ended up elsewhere.

And not drafted players they knew weren’t going to make the team. But in reality that’s not fair, because we could have sustained injured over the summer and then all three of those players would have made it.

It's like that old saying, America is the worst country to live in, except all the others! Bills are good. Scaaaaaary good. 12 win floor. take it to the bank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
