All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Buffalobills.com has learned that the league has confirmed the draft choice for the Bills has improved to a fifth-round pick. That pick will be 11th or 12th in round five based on the outcome of the league coin flip to determine whether Kansas City or Seattle will pick 11th in round one, with the two clubs alternating by round thereafter.
Re: Bills officially to receive 5th round for Lynch
With 4 picks in rounds 4 and 5 now, we definitely have some ammo to make some moves if the right guy is available. Not that I'm a fan of trading up, but it's an option.

Meh, there isn't really anyone worth moving up to get, not with what it would cost.

The more picks, the better IMO.
I agree. I'm not advocating trading up, but we know Buddy tried to trade back into round 1 in 2010, but wasn't successful. At least if they do make a trade we'll still have picks in those rounds. I'd rather keep them though. We can add a lot of depth with those picks.

Yup, and hopefully find a starter or two.
I also know he was open to moving out of the #3 spot last year, he said the offer wasn't what they wanted though.
I'm really hoping they get a good offer for #10.
Outside of a few players sure to be gone before then, not much in that range excites me. There seems to be more question marks than in recent years on a lot of players. Of course the combine will help clear that up, but impact players still come out of the #15 to #25 range all the time.
I'd rather have a later 1st with an extra 2nd rounder or 3rd rounder plus a mid pick than the #10 pick. It looks like a lot of quality talent should be available in rounds 2-3 still.
So with the exception of guys like Luck, it seems like the ceiling on this class isn't as high, but the overall class might be stronger than usual.
