Ok, I have to add this here for YOUR opinions. !

The Bills gifted the Chiefs another AFC title with their first-round trade
Scheduled to pick at No. 28 on Thursday night and in need of wide receiver help following the Stefon Diggs trade and the loss of Gabe Davis in free agency, Buffalo traded back to No. 32 in a deal with postseason nemesis Kansas City. The Chiefs used the pick to draft speedy Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy, leading to a nearly unanimous outpouring of the same reaction. WHOA! Mahomes throwing to this guy and Marquise Brown! Unstoppable! What were the Bills thinking???

Verdict: OVERREACTION

The notion that the Chiefs pulled some kind of Jedi mind trick on the Bills to trade up and draft the receiver the Bills actually wanted defies logic. Front offices spend months assessing other teams' needs and which positions they can be expected to target in the draft. There's no way the Bills sent this pick to the Chiefs thinking, "Jeez, I hope they don't pick Worthy!"

Buffalo and Kansas City are in two different places as franchises. The Chiefs have a deep roster that has won the past two Super Bowls and can trade up for players they view as finishing touches. The Bills have seen a ton of talent walk out the door this offseason and need more picks. They added a third-rounder -- they didn't have one at the time -- in this deal. Then they traded back again, from No. 32 to No. 33, and finally drafted a receiver in Florida State's Keon Coleman with the first pick of the second round.


It's true Buffalo hasn't been able to get past Kansas City in the playoffs. But it doesn't mean the Chiefs' front office knows what it's doing and the Bills' front office doesn't. And by the way, do the decisions the Chiefs have made at wide receiver the past few years mean we should assume Worthy will work out -- or that he will definitely be better than Coleman?

Bills fans are already convincing themselves that Keon Coleman is TO.

Man, his potential is crazy, and he is 20 years old.

He looks pretty damn good from what I’ve seen.

If Coleman can figure out how to get more than 1 inch of separation, he will be a monster. But as of right now, I don't see it. Every single play he's got a college level DB on him tighter than stripper's grip on money. It'll be even worse in the NFL

Sounds like you just described Laquon Treadwell.

The one thing he’s good at is snagging contested catches due to his lack of separation. Allen also likes those lob 50/50 balls, I know he’s connected plenty vs the Chiefs. So I’d say Coleman definitely fits what Allen does, whereas Andy rarely utilizes those players within his scheme.

Big Asses and high R.A.S.'s. Plus elite speed. My kinda draft.

[gordonelloyd]

I think Veach did a great job in the draft.

But I don’t think we should be making fun of buffalo. They got the receiver they wanted. We got the receiver we wanted . both have excellent quarterbacks throwing to them. Time will tell who was right.

And Buffalo moved up a bit elsewhere in the draft later on. But we did not pay too much and almost all of the analyst agree with that.

So let’s call that trade a win win.

This draft also dispel the myth that nobody will trade with the Chiefs. GMs are all about improving their team. I think almost always they will make trades with whoever they think will help them do that. In this draft that was pretty obvious. So QED.

When Worthy goes for 8-137 and a Tuddy in a 31-17 win over Buffalo in the Divisional this year we will laugh... This is a win, you just don't realize it yet.
