Move Up .... Move Down or Stand Pat

[Woodman]

I get the feeling we'll move up for a WR .... if we can get a few we like to drop outside the top 12-15 picks.

[Bill Cody]

I'm certain we're going to do one of those 3 things

[Woodman]

can an admin attach a poll please.

I always like the idea of moving down to add day 2 picks.

I have a feeling Beane will use the Texans 2025 pick to move up for his receiver.

That pick we get from the Texans is of course the pick the Vikings traded to them ..... basically a late 1st if the Vikings season goes as expected.

If that avoids giving our 1st next year I'd be for it.

If you’re not going after a franchise QB, I don’t like moving up, the risk reward is too much. I would love to see the Bills go to the Carolina’s or Washington’s who have multiple 2nd’s and move back and get an extra 2nd and a 3rd this year.

I’ve stated my preference for a trade down, the value chart looks like just that our first for someone’s second and third.

Yeah the Bills would gain another 2nd and a 3rd and the would have to sprinkle in a couple late round pick.

I have a strong suspicion that Beane does not know if he's going to "move up....move down or stand pat" until the draft actually starts and players are taken off the board.

Any trade, up or down, depends so much on what trades are possible.

I'm make this solid prediction, the Bills will either move up....move down or stand pat.

You would think that there is a playbook being developed that takes into account a multitude of scenarios involving the players they have on their board.

What we have seen in the past is Beane targeting a guy and going after them. That's his MO so far but that's not to say moving down is out of the realm of possibility.

I would be curious to know if a team has developed a more sophisticated mock draft AI. That would be fun to work on.

To be clear, those of us who are proponents of a trade down are just thinking wishfully.

We all know BBB doesn’t roll that way. If I were to bet on it I’d lay odds of a trade UP of better than 60%.

At least.

It will take a will of steel for Beane to hold his horses.

Love the extra 2nd and a 3rd.

Oh yeah...I do not think there is any doubt that each team conducts several mock drafts....over and over and over again.

Of course the huge difference is that each team has a LOT of information about each player. More than any of us can ever dram of.

Beane is just about 100% guaranteed to move up in either the first or second, all of these 'extra' picks are burning a whole in his pocket as we speak.

I'd wager he does as well.

Von Miller suggests Bills GM Brandon Beane wants to trade up to draft a wide receiver - NBC Sports

Miller posted a video that he captioned, “Brandon Beane arriving to the 2024 NFL draft to trade up for a WR. In Beane we TRUST.”
Does Miller actually have any inside information about Beane’s plans? If he does, posting that on social media would be an odd choice. But Beane’s own comments make clear that he is open to including Miller in the Bills’ pre-draft process.

A small move up to get a guy they like wouldn't bother me. A move up to the top 10 where they give up next years first would.

Somebody tell Woodman to just trust the process. And stop spamming the forum with silly threads.

Rumors whirling that the Bills plan to trade up to take a tight end.
