Trade next years first rounder for a first rounder in the mid 20's giving them 3 first round picks? I think that they could do something like this and hit every starting need they have OT, DE, OLB, OG, TE within the first three rounds. Every other selection can be made on BPA available. I think that would be an awesome way to finish building this team.
Should the Bills do this?

Re: Should the Bills do this?
No. To me, the only way you even consider doing that is if the pick you get this year is going to be better than the pick you'll have next year. We won't be in the mid-20's next year."Misguided political correctness tethers our intellects."

Re: Should the Bills do this?
If the right talent is there say Brandon Pettigrew at 22-24 range instead of trading up to get there just trade next years first. They did it for Losman. I think they could do it for Pettigrew. I would. If this team makes the play-offs they aren't going to have a high pick any way. Plus with the economic times why would you want a high pick next year? I think if the right talent is around it should be done. There is a lot of value at these picks this year.Biggest Donte Whitner supporter on this entire message board...Maybe biggest Donte Whitner fan ever...Wish there was a white throwback out that I could get of you guessed it #20...

If we are drafting at #15 next year, then we will have give up #42 and #15 for a #22. The argument will be that we will be drafting later than #22 next year but I don't think Pettigrew is going to be that sort of difference maker, and next year at #15 we might have a chance of a player like Jermaine Gresham who could be an even better fit for the offence.
The other problem is these economic times you'd be having to pay for three 1st rounders in one year.
Whilst I can see the advantage of doing so if there was a can't miss QB or LT or RB who slid, the question would have to be why have they slid. The Browns did such a move with Brady Quinn but lucked out because Anderson started. If he hadn't and Quinn had a tough 1st year it would have been a very challenging time for them.
As it stands why would Minnesota at #22 and Atlanta #24 give up a pick when they both need a starting TE? And I am certainly not in favour of giving extra draft picks to the Patriots.

Re: Should the Bills do this?
No chance...
LOTS of better talent available next year...
Sam Bradford - if Trent falls apart.
Taylor Mays S
George Selvie DE
Joe Haden CB - if McGee goes
Carlos Dunlap DE
Jermaine Gresham TE
Brandon Spikes LB
For examples, obviously some will fall and others will rise but those are some of the top names next year who'll be available.
