Thrivefourfive Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Beane traded away 150 targets under contract, and he has a plan. The Bills will draft a WR with their first pick. The Bills will pick a WR at 1.28, or move up to pick a WR. They are not trading back to draft a WR. So they aren’t trading back. What Beane does with picks in 4th and 5th rounds is how this draft will be remembered. Whatever Beane decides to do with these picks, they will have a MAJOR impact on this team for years to come. Pick #60 can be BPA for DLine and defensive backfield. Two more WRs picks in R4 and R5. 1 1 2 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he can trade a few of those picks to get a 3rd round pick. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Here’s what’s going to happen… Beane is going to draft someone 1 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Here's what's really going to happen. Beane is going to sit on his hands because he doesn't want to waste his precious draft capital. Meanwhile, the Chiefs are going to trade up in front of the Bills and take the last WR that they had a 1st round grade on. Then the bills will draft a DB at pick 28 and subsequently cause a 4.8 magnitude earthquake in WNY from the collective heads of Bills Mafia exploding. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cincinnati Kid Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I don’t think a huge trade-up is in play, but Beane always moves up a couple of slots to get his guy. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 This is not "what's going to happen", just your best guess. Anyone who definitively thinks they know what's going to happen is only fooling themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjv Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 What I'm hoping is that a WRer that is at the top of the Bills Draft Board is available to Beane either at 28 or 60 or at a move-up draft position that does not cost them a No. 2 pick. What I don't want is for Beane to reach for a WRer in rounds one and two, just to appease the knuckleheads that are WRer or Bust. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Here's what's going to happen. Be it at 28 or not the Bills will draft a player. No matter who that player is the board will instantly erupt into a giant cesspool of complaints. Be it it's the "wrong guy", wrong position" or just not the guy each person wanted individually. There will be a thread started to announce the pick where many people will wax poetic about why it's a terrible pick and how we could have drafted a different guy, one they personally liked better most likely. This will continue and play out after every pick the Bills make. There will be a few optimistic posters on each guy, but these threads aren't the place for optimism so those posters will be attacked. Slowly the gnashing of teeth will turn into a "we'll see" attitude on some players. We'll hear all about how "McDermott influenced that pick" after any defensive player is taken and that "McDermott won't play rookies" after any offensive selection. *BONUS- Next season anytime any rookie in this draft class has a nice game there will be immediate threads started about them saying we chose the wrong guy. This will all play out for the 2025 draft as well. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falgobofu Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Cooper DeJean could be our pick, did you see Beane light up when asked about him in his presser? He immediately grabbed his water and also referred to meeting him as 'a joy'. He looked like he was trying to hide excitement. Hard to pick a S/CB in the first but if he is an Ed Reed then I'm all for it. Great returner 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein's Dog Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Einstein's Dog moves (which if Beane is smart will be his): 1. Trade low draft pick for vet WR- Dhop/Metcalf/Godwin type. Top choice DHop early w so Tenn at pick 7 goes WR. 2. trade back out of round 1 for extra pick. With early pick get one of the second tier WRs - McConkey/Franklin/Legette/Coleman 3. remaining draft DL, S 4. get a good value on a vet RB, wait it out. Maybe Zeke. 5. get a vet S. If not Simmons then bring back Hyde to mentor draft pick. That provides the team with enough talent to contend. Not much you can do about the lack of pass rush but hope on Von and a draft pick. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
