Rumor Of Bills Making Offer For #2

DeepBlueJint : 3/20/2018 8:23 am
Updated NFL Rumor:

For the #2 NY Giants pick, Buffalo Bills propose the following:
2018 1st Round (#12 overall)
2018 1st Round (#22)
2018 2nd Round (#53)
2018 3rd Round (#65)
2019 2nd Round

The Giants are purportedly likely to counter but talks seem to be on. For me nothing less than a 2019 First Round instead of a Second Round.

Come on you can't use a team that has been dysfunctional for years

As an example of why it's not a good idea to trade back and gain picks
“15 years from now those picks will mean nothing “

Shit, lets just give away all of our draft picks because the #2 is the only one worth anything. Forget it, there’s no way any of those players will amount to squat
The Bills first rounder in 2019

Could very easily be a top 5 pick. Especially if they pick and start a rookie QB in 2018.

It is the Bills after all.

This is the draft scenario I'm crossing my fingers for.

I don't think we're out of Knicks territory yet. This franchise has been in a free fall since 2011 with the exception of the 2016 season. Mara is not impressing me with his decision-making.

And we just made a guy who was considered the an above average left tackle the highest paid linemen in the NFL "because we had to."

Now the Giants are saying Eli has a lot left in the tank. If they are wrong about that, and don't draft the QB, we may be regretting that for years and years.
No shit Sherlock. Welcome to the dark side.

This mess did not need to happen. It took serial mismanagement on the part of the two genetic lottery winners in the owners box to bring us to this point. And we won't get out of it until those two stop their meddling into football personnel matters.
We're indeed turning into the Knicks.

I made that comparison a few months ago - as a diehard Knicks fan, I noticed the symptoms right away.

We're gonna continue to go round and round on this draft pick over the next few weeks, but if we don't find our franchise QB we might be headed back to the 1970s. Bradley Chubb sure as shit won't stop it.

What's to say the Giants didn't leak it to get Denver to bite? Denver may have signed Keenum but he is still just a very good backup. Elway has been all over Josh Allen. Denver jumps up, leaves the Giants #5 (Barkley, Nelson, Chubb?) and a couple other high picks and maybe #1 next year.

Talk about kicking the can down the road. We already have a top 2 pick with multiple prospects who line up well with the rebuilding of our roster. But let's back out of that, pass on the blue chip prospects, stock up on red chips, and hope that Buffalo gifts us the pick next year that we should just take for ourselves this year.

LOL, so true. These fans crack me up.
It is like I said in my post last night...

Cleveland stockpiled picks and did not get a franchise QB. In fact, they were crowned the winners of the draft a year or two ago if I remember correctly.

This past season they were winless because they did not have a franchise QB.

You can keep your picks. We should not trade down and we must select our next franchise QB this year.

If we don't then DG Is Reese 2.

How about the Bills? Last year they traded down and stockpiled picks & now are desperately trying to trade back up.
DG not taking a QB

would have nothing to do with Reese. Although I find it hard to believe, he may simply not like any of them enough to take at 2. Reese also never had the #2 pick (or close to it) or needed to draft Eli’s successor during his tenure - don’t see the comparison at all.

Something people aren’t talking about - Accorsi is a huge believer in QB’s, and always had the belief you need to take one when the opportunity arises.
I don’t think here’s any single rule to follow  
UConn4523 : 3/21/2018 8:03 am : link
especially if you don’t love a prospect. I’ll reserve judgement until things play out - so much can and will happen by draft day.
