San-O Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Buffalo traded up to get McCargo, and basically got zero production from it. I'm not big fan of trading away picks unless you're already a solid playoff team. Bills haven't had a sniff in 7 years?

2003Contenders Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Obviously, the verdict is still out on McCargo. If he develops into a serviceable starting DT, the trade up will have been worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erynthered Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Go ahead and look back year to year. There are a few players in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. I already did this yesterday after the WM trade.

San-O Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 And your point is what exactly? If you're going to spend additional picks, you better get something more than a "serviceable starting DT". See Ryan Denney, and possibly John McCargo. IMO: I think you improve your odds of getting a good player more, by having additional picks, than trading up to get a player you like/want.

Billsjunkie Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Denney actually was a very good player for us last year. I wouldn't knock the pick now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San-O Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Denney actually was a very good player for us last year. I wouldn't knock the pick now. Not good enough to be a starter on one of the weakest D-lines in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsjunkie Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I swear some of you kill me. So every 1st and 2nd rounder has to be a starter? Boy we would be cutting or demoting people left and right than if thats the case. Denney was very sound in run support and actually was our leading pass rusher in a couple games.

So because the pick we traded up for got INJURED, we should hesitate before trading up now? Doesn't make sense considering that the reason we got no production from that pick was that the player got INJURED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Wait, so he got INJURED cause we traded up for him?! Just imagine if we had traded all our picks for 7th rounders. We could have gotten like 30 new guys in the draft and none of them would have gotten injured. it's foolproof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
