    Reason Bills want to move up, Rookie wage scale

    The Bills organization now have a mission, to polish a product that's been damaged by years of unsuccessful campaigns. Do we go out & mortgage our financial future with high-priced FA, spend $20 Million a season for another Mario type-guy ? That's impractical but what is practical is getting a top talent for ~$5.5 Million a season, an average salary for the top rookie draftee. You get 4 years of a top talent at a relative discount to market, so it's a practical matter to move-up for a great talent.

    I can't say what it will take to move up from 9 to 1 or even if we gamble even more & give up our first & second picks for 15' & 16' season while keeping our 9th pick this draft so we can get a new WR / OT or QB. It depends on how far we think we are right now, according to reports we feel we're pretty close. Then moving up to secure great talent is not a bad bet & we will start gambling more now. When it's not your money, it's easy to gamble.

    What's your infatuation with Baldwin? Tired of looking at this bull****. Why do message boards where people are supposed to translate IDEAS have to be scattered with stupid redundant images?

    That being said. WTF are you talking about?

      It's much cheaper to move up for big talent than pay for it on the open FA market, that's the short version.

                Why the f*** would Houston want Stevie Johnson (a known basketcase) in a trade when they already have Andre Johnson.
