GASabresIUFan Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) This maybe a reach, but I think they would have. We know that the Bills had Coleman higher than McConkey, Mitchell, Legette, Worthy, and Pearsall. If they didn't they would have taken one of Worthy, McConkey, Legette or Pearsall at 28 (or 32) instead of trading down (twice). So let's say for arguments sake that the Bills don't make the trade and draft Coleman at 28. Dallas and Baltimore don't take a WR. Dallas didn't grab a WR until the 6th round and Baltimore stole Tez Walker in the 4th. We know SF didn't want Legette, McConkey and Coleman. That leaves one question, would they have taken Worthy over Pearsall? That's the real question. Given how the 49ers went somewhat off the board by drafting Pearsall with Legette, McConkey, Coleman, & Mitchell available, I believe they had Pearsall ranked ahead of Worthy as well. By way the NFL had a draft grade of 6.4 on McConkey, 6.35 on Mitchell, 6.32 on Pearsall, 6.29 on Worthy, 6.26 on Legette, and 6.25 on Coleman Given this back drop, it seems to me that KC would ended up with Worthy anyway. I'm therefore glad Beane stuck to his guns, traded down and added the 3rd rd pick. Edited April 28 by GASabresIUFan 6 11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOboy Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 No way to know for certain, they felt they needed to live up. Maybe the 9ers would’ve grabbed him. Ultimately we’ll never know, so not worth worrying about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) No way to know. But even if they would have, it shouldn’t have been through our handing him to them. We are the joke of the NFL right now. Seeing stuff like this everywhere (and Greeny was a Bills ally all last season, defending us when no-one else would): Im not one for cussing, but it pisses me off.

Charles Romes Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) You can’t put a player like Worthy on the field every down, making him a luxury pick. There is only one team in position to make a luxury pick. That said, the Chiefs handed the Bills draft capital for free.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I think they end up pearsell without the trade I'm one of the few that think pearsell ends up being a lot better than worthy in the NFL 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbbillsfan Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 1) we have no idea if the bills had Coleman higher than any of the WR’s drafted ahead of him. What we do know is that the bills didn’t have worthy, pearsall, legette, or Coleman as 1st round grades. 2) no way to know if KC still gets worthy, they could have traded up with another team behind us, or he could have fallen to them. We will never know. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter. What if we took worthy and Coleman is taken by KC at 32, and Coleman is HOFer and worthy is John Ross. Can’t play what if game, just follow your board. 4 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can only know for sure that they had Coleman higher than Legette (knew Carolina was taking him) and McConkey (didn’t pick him when they had the chance). They didn’t know who KC or San Fran would pick when they made the trade. Theoretically they may have had Worthy and Pearsall higher.

Success Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Certainly a decent shot of that. Either way, we really lost nothing w/ that trade. We were able to pick in the 3rd round, courtesy of KC's doubt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Very likely. Who cares? The media ate this up because it adds to the "Chiefs own the Bills" storyline. But it's a complete nothingburger. Beane took what was the best deal for the bills, which is what he should do. Can't worry about who the chiefs may or may not take. 3 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can say they had Coleman higher than McConkey and Mitchell only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
