Groy is okay but nothing special.

But even taking your assessment of their OL at face value (not impugning you here), what does Buffalo do at WR?

To put their WRs in context, Keelan Cole, who only started 6 games for us last year as an undrafted rookie, outperformed all of their receivers last year.

Dede Westbrook outperformed every receiver they had except Deonte Thompson, and he's no longer there.

They are also talking about throwing in Shady McCoy in a trade?

If they manage to pull off the trade to #2 overall, whatever QB they get will have NOTHING around him.

Assuming the trade goes through, the Bills will still have draft picks. I'm going to assume that at least one of the second round selections is a future pick in 2019. So this year, they would be trading picks #12, #22, #53,#96 and then they would give up a 2019 2nd rounder. That leaves Buffalo with picks #2, #55, #65, #121, #166 and #187. That's enough to add a WR, RB, LB, C/OG and OT. Sure, it won't fill every need they have, but they have a chance to cover the big holes. Most bad teams won't be able to cover every hole via the draft anyway. Getting a franchise QB is key to a team's success though.

I'm not buying it. I still believe Darnold goes #1. If Allen is the pick though, the Giants won't trade pick #2 and they will select Darnold. The only way they move out of #2 is if the Browns take Darnold.
