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!
I expect the Bills to sit at #10. LT Martin of Stanford would be my choice there.
But if the Bills are actually thinking of packaging picks for a blockbuster trade, then the only player worth doing it for is RG3. No other player in this draft or existing player like Bradford is worth it.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

You don't think Sam Bradford is worth our #10 pick?
That is a Triple win for St Louis then.
They would get rid of Bradfords ABSURD contract.
His contract wouldn't be absurd to the team inheriting it. The Rams already paid significant money up front, including an $18M option bonus last year. The team trading for him would inherit 4 Yrs/$48M left on the deal, which is not that bad for a good starting QB especially one with Bradford's upside. St. Louis would take a significant cap hit if Bradford is traded, so it makes little sense for them to deal him.
Bradford is a good QB. People forget the promise he showed when he was rookie of the year. He has proven he has an NFL arm and can read defenses. The real question left for him is if he can stay healthy, although it would help him significantly if the Rams invest in improving their OL. He has a live arm and can make all the throws on the NFL level.
Even with all RG3's talent, he is still an unknown as an NFL player. I like him a lot, but Bradford has shown he can play in the NFL. It is a no-brainer for St. Louis to keep him and trade the pick.
#10 & #41 matches up almost perfectly for that value (you win by 10 pts). If Luck, RGIII, and Blackmon are gone, Heckert would have a tough decision to make between Claiborne and #10 + #41. Kirkpatrick/Jenkins + Wagner/David/L. Miller/D. Martin has got to be tempting v. Claiborne/Richardson.
