Cordy Glenn traded to the Bengals

 

Interesting.

 

This is consistent with McDermott placing a huge premium on player-availability.

 

I liked Cordy well enough, and always wanted to see him do well after he was maligned in his draft year as a poor fit at tackle. Godspeed.

Compensation for Cordy Glenn trade: Bills and Bengals swap 1st Round picks. Bills go to 12. Bengals go to 21. Teams also swap 5th and 6th round picks.

That puts Glenn's value in the deal at a mid-2nd rounder. That is a sweet deal from the Bills end IMO.

 

Makes it much less painful to move up with the Giants/Colts now that we are at 12.

This move really sets the table to jump into the top 5 if need be.  I like it.

Agreed. I love this move by Beane. There's no way this is the final move we make before we pick either

 

The guy's a full blown sociopath.

I'm actually dumbfounded by that interview

With the Watkins draft (ugh), it cost that year's 9th and the following year's first to get up to 4th? Was that it?

 

What would it cost to go from 12 to, say, 2 or 3?

 

Is it, as Taro suggests, 12 and 22 to get into the top 5? Maybe also have to throw in a second-day pick as well?

According to TSW our first rounders are worth 2000 points, the #2 overall is worth 2600 points

FWIW the draft pick value chart says to get to #3 it would take roughly #12 and #22. So very doable.

Per the Draft Value Chart, yes I know per rumors that GMs really do not use this too much,

 

It would take 12, 22, 54 and probably 65 to move to 2.

 

Pick 3 or 4 would be less

 

Bengals also get the Bills 5th rounder and the Bills get the Bengals 6th

If this is a precursor to moving up, they must be looking at Rosen or Mayfield. Unless they're hoping Jackson is available at #12 and they use #22 on another need. If it's Rosen, they may have to go to #2 - Mayfield, either 5 or 6 dependent on Cousins.

Resetting the #Bills' current draft picks:

• No. 12 (Round 1)

• No. 22 (Round 1)

• No. 53 (Round 2)

• No. 56 (Round 2)

• No. 65 (Round 3)

• No. 96 (Round 3)

• No. 121 (Round 4)

• No. 166 (Round 5)

• No. 187 (Round 6)

Now we need to move up two more slots, get ahead of the Dolphins and acquire Baker Mayfield.  

 

Might have to move up more than 2 to get Mayfield if Cousins signs with the VIkings.

Definitely a good trade, and sets us up to make the jump for a QB.

 

That said, I'll wait until after free agency and the draft to be overly concerned, but I am considering being worried about the offense line we're going to field in front of a rookie QB.

At this point we have to think they are going to keep moving up and are prepared to throw their 2nd- and 3rd-rounders at the situation as needed.

 

In for a penny, in for a pound.

 

It's risky but I'm prepared to give McD and Beano the benefit of the doubt, unlike the series of bozos that preceded them.
