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!
Rumor: Bills set to trade 2nd round pick for SF's 31st pick
So wait, they get a 2nd and a 3rd, for a first? They already have 13 or some picks, now they get even more? That team doesn't need to be trading back, they have the ammo to trade up. I just don't get the logic
I'm with you. It's a pipe dream.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
It's going to take more than a 3rd next year to move back into the 1st.
SF has the 2nd to last pick- they're 31. They are only moving back 10 picks if this is true. A 3rd next year is a fair trade.
Plus, SF has an absurd amount of picks in this draft so they should clean up with or without this potential trade. They don't need or want any more picks this year.
Re: Rumor: Bills set to trade 2nd round pick for SF's 31st pick
To actually post something pertaining to the thread, I do not like the strategy of trading a 1st for a 2nd and 3rd...even in a weak draft, whats the point? If we were more adept at drafting prospects in the 2nd and 3rd rounds maybe I'd be more inclined to like that strategy.
Re: Rumor: Bills set to trade 2nd round pick for SF's 31st pick
Oh, and if there is any truth to this, I assume it means Buffalo has 1 or 2 guys in mind and the trade would be contingent on them still being on the board at 31.
Still, this has a Posluzny/James Hardy feel to it.
I just got a interesting call, the Bills have a plan to trade back into the first for SF's pick. The plan is to swap SF's 31st pick with Buffalo 2nd round pick & a 3rd rounder next season. This will allow Buffalo to move ahead of the Jags in the second round & choose an impact player TBD (Barkley or Nassib ?).
This also tells me that Nassib is not a sure pick at #8, so we might go with Tavon first then one of the 2 QB's that the Bills have as NFL starters on their board.
Go Bills!!
And what else are we giving back? I don't see the 49ers letting us move up without giving something back. I mean a few years ago it cost us a 2nd and 3rd to move up for McCargo. To get JP we gave up a 2nd, 5th and a 1st the following year. Honestly if the Bills are enamored with three QBs as it sounds I say trade down from pick 8 to the middle of the draft and we should be able to come away with one of them and get more picks later that we can use on other needs.

My guess is whoever is calling you knows you will go blab it all over Bills message boards, thus setting in motion the grand smokescreen plan.
