Turner or Briggs?

[justasportsfan]

We only have 1 1st rd. pick. Who would you give it up for?

Discuss.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

I'd give our 1st for Briggs, but I want their 2nd back.

If Turner costs more than our 2nd, no thanks.

I was just going to start this thread but you beat me to it.

I'd say neither for our 1st round pick, unless we are able to pick up another late 1st round or another 2nd round pick in the package. If that were possible then Turner just because I think there are more good/decent LB's that can be had later in this draft.

Briggs. I wouldn't give up a 1st for Turner.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

Our 1st and the Ravens 3rd in 2007 and 2008 for Briggs and Bears 1st.

Bears 1st and our 3rd for Turner and the Chargers 3rd and 5th.

Leaves us with our 2nd and Chargers 3rd for day 1...
Our 4th, 6th & 7th along with the Chargers 5th and the Ravens 7th day 2.

but drafts are a crapshoot and Briggs is a proven probowler. I'd have to go with Briggs on this one. IMO , it's easier to find Porters in the draft than it is to find Urlachers /Briggs in the draft. Plus Briggs already fits the cover 2. RB's are also a dime a dozen , no?

Re: Turner or Briggs?

Either.

In case you haven't noticed, we have a huge hole at both positions and need a bonifide player. Not a faceless draft pick who's NFL experience equals Zero.

The Bills will know the market and contract demands for both, before taking further steps.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

I'd swap firsts with SD for Turner. That's the only way I'd give up a first for him.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

I'd give up 12 for Briggs straight up and maybe more. I just can't see opening the vault like that for turner. If our first can grab one i'd have to take briggs.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

I believe RB's are a dime a dozen with a good Oline, and a good LB is harder to find. I'll take Briggs. The draft is a crap shot and I will gladly say;

"With their 1st round selection the Buffalo Bills select Lance Briggs from the Chicago Bears!"

I'd be happy with either Turner or Briggs for the right price. Briggs/Crowell/Ellison would be a nice package to put on the field, I agree. I'm just fearful this team will overpay for Briggs because we are desperate for LB now after trading spikes. We could probably get Turner for cheaper than Briggs and still draft a P. Willis/Poz/Beason...etc. and be ok at LB.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

I'd give the 1st rounder to the Bears for Lance Briggs in a heartbeat! RB is easier to fill, so I'd only go as high as our 2nd round for Turner. But maybe add a conditional pick for him.

Re: Turner or Briggs?

The only way I'd deal is if I knew we couldn't get Willis

[patmoran2006]

Re: Turner or Briggs?

Briggs......... Absolutely.

I also think at the end of the day, Turner could be had for a second (and maybe one of the two thirds next year)

Re: Turner or Briggs?

No question Briggs. He is a proven difference maker. If we gave up our first for an unproven backup RB I would **** myself.
