I am afraid that trading down is too tempting for this organization. Unless we get a GM that stands firm with the #1 pick and Geno be the man O'

and i just told you that it would mean something

Yeah, he has. He said before he ever hired Pioli that he wanted this franchise to draft and develop it's own QB.

And are you suggesting that you're happy with lip service? Because that's all it is. ALL it is.

They would have to have a trading partner in order to trade down...

Which makes this Bills GM's statement even more stupid...

Lets look at it this way. Now every GM knows when the phone rings from the Bills that they're looking to trade up.

Is that really a big deal knowing it ahead of time vs them calling the day of the draft and let that GM know they're looking to trade up?

The end situation is the same. The GM for the top spot is going to try to get as much as he can.

Yes it is a big deal. Its the same reason you don't go to a car dealership saying "Man I REALLY need a car".

Everytime this guy talks about trading up, the price to trade up goes higher.

No, he said he wants this team to draft and develop a QB. Which we've in turn NOT DONE.

You won't EVER hear Clark say "we're drafting a QB". That's the GMs job. The GM currently is Scott Pioli.

So I guess tk13 wasn't trolling after all...

there's only 1 #1 pick...there are lots of cars and dealership

the price for the pick (whichever pick it is) is going to be set by the # of teams bidding for it...saying you're bidding for it two months in advance, or two weeks, really makes no difference...

Hey, if you're a drooling mongoloid that needs your terrible GM to say things like this to give you "hope," then good for you. I just don't care. Just do the deed and get it over with. You don't have to make a show of it to try and save your job. If you didn't suck at your job you wouldn't need to give the fans hope to begin with.
