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!

"It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you" Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist pollshowing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.
I like the idea of getting a few extra swings myself.

I'd be OK trading down into the early 2nd round if it meant we add another 3rd+, but I do think this is a draft where we need to hit on at least one stud at a premium position on OL or WR. That might be possible if we've addressed WR in FA and are looking for OL studs in the draft. There will probably be some good OL adds in the 2nd round.
Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?
Well I think with only 6 picks it's unlikely we trade up. Which is comforting to me because Beane gets ants in his pants on draft day when he has a player targeted and he stats worrying that the player won't be there. There are benefits to drafting a player in the 1st round. if he's a star you have an extra year of control. So my guess is if there is a player we like at 27 we will pick him right there. More likely to see some movement after day 1.
Beane has to redo A LOT of contracts first and decide who to let walk. Then comes Vet FA and who is out there that can help.
Lots to do over the next 10 weeks, prior to the draft. Too far off.
You are the GM today get to work.
Okay who's contract do you redo?
Who do you part company with IYO?

If I could ..... I'd package a certain coach and a specific player and trade them to Philadelphia for their 3rd and 4th round draft picks ..... but I can't so .... trade down for extra picks if possible ..... with the goal of building the OL 1st.

These "Trade up trade down stand pat.” questions are irreverent and not very realistic in respect that the Bills use their own player evaluation system, bolstered by their organization that works year round on both prospective draft candidates and other NFL players for FA, or even trade candidates and then, in an extremely protective and closely held way, grade them.
There is no decision to "Trade up trade down stand pat.” at this point, or, I suspect, until the draft actually starts. And is based on how they have graded the full draft board, what the priorities are and how each pick is made form other clubs.
If they have a player they are targeting and it means they may have to move up to get him (based on their research and expectation of what other team may do) they move up....like they did last year to get Elam.
If they have a player they are targeting and they think the likelihood that they could move back and get him because they expect that no one else is targeting him, they do that....like they did for James Cook, trading back twice before they selected him.
To answer the rather silly question....."Trade up trade down stand pat.”....it depends.

Understood its fluid.
What position would you attempt to strengthen 1st?
OL, DL, RB or other?
I know everybody wants more weapons I get it.
Personally it's all about the trenches for me.

It depends on what players are predicted to be available and how the Bills have them graded. Plus, it depend on how FA unfolds.
So, the same answer....it depends.
It always depends.
