BillsFanForever19 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Value-Chart.php If you package the #11 and #28, you get a total of 1,910. Which is just under the #3 overall pick and more than the 4th. If KC or Seattle wanted to pull the trigger, we could land either Jason Smith or Eugene Monroe (as St. Louis is expected to take one of them). For it or against it?

Good post, very interesting, and they should consider it. The irony: they'll end up paying Monroe or Smith close to what Peters was asking for, plus they've lost out on having the 11th pick for a passrusher.

VOR Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Against it. You don't want to draft in the top-10. I hope the Bills can trade-down from 11th overall, get a couple additional picks, and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastMode54 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 We have WAY too many holes to give up ANY picks. We need to get more. I would even consider trading back out of 11 to gain extra picks. I think that's the way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Remember that a great number of teams re-vamped the value chart last year to more accurately reflect the gobs of guaranteed money that a team must commit to a high pick...here's the re-vamped chart (per PFT): 1 2,000 2 1,900 3 1,825 4 1,750 5 1,675 6 1,635 7 1,570 8 1,505 9 1,440 10 1,375 11 1,320 12 1,275 13 1,230 14 1,185 15 1,140 16 1,110 17 1,070 18 1,040 19 1,010 20 980 21 945 22 920 23 895 24 870 25 845 26 820 27 795 28 770 29 745 30 720 31 695 32 670 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quikchomp Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 That draft chart is worthless nowadays. No one wants top 5 picks anymore - there's a reason teams can't trade out of those spots. It's just amazing to me that an organization like the NFL has such a huge fundamental flaw in the most important aspect of funneling talent into their league. It's almost beyond comprehension.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 We have WAY too many holes to give up ANY picks. We need to get more. I would even consider trading back out of 11 to gain extra picks. I think that's the way to go Totally agree. To salvage this situation we would hopefully find a trade partner to trade down in the first and pick up one more early-mid round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think Peters isn't going to live up to the money he gets in Philly. I think we will end up getting the better of this deal, even though it's only a 1st, 4th, and a pick next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the way to go Also agree. I'm not terribly convinced about Andre Smith, either. Seems like he's got issues off the field to me. We have enough of that these days.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 So we trade Peters and the 11th pick for a player who might someday be Peters? And have to pay that unproven rookie nearly as much as Peters was asking. Also, no pass rusher in first round. Very bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not worthless. But it's value is questionable. It is still used as the starting point for trade discussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 against it. there have been reports that every single team that has a top ten pick has been trying to trade out of it because the value is basically flat with the first 20 prospects. Who knows how true that report is, but it doesn't seem far fetched considering the state of rookie contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
