Bills Want To Trade Up For Kalil

[Ruff]

The Vikings might have a market for the third overall pick, after all.

Charley Casserly of CBS Sports and NFL Network is reporting that the left tackle-needy Buffalo Bills “would like to trade up” to draft USC’s Matt Kalil, and are willing to surrender a second-round pick to close the deal.

While it’s sensible that the Bills would target a left tackle, the approach in Casserly’s report hints that Buffalo believes itself to be one player away from serious playoff, even Super Bowl contention. Most observers would probably disagree with that notion. But if G.M. Buddy Nix has identified Kalil as a truly elite, franchise-caliber left tackle capable of making quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick better, there shouldn’t be anyone trying to stop him.

Interesting, could mess up some people's (mine) 1st round mocks.

No way they could get him just giving up a 2nd. If they can, they are getting a great deal.

Even a 2nd and a 3rd would be a bit low.

Man the rumors are flying around like crazy this year. I wouldn't be surprized to see a few teams trade up into the top ten.

I don't see it happening.. I was listening to WGR 550 here in Buffalo just 30 min ago and they are all dead set on the Bills drafting Barron.

With all this trade up trade down talk I'm predicting no first round trades.

With the new rookie wage scale, the top 10 is going to be a mess this year...

I wouldn't doubt it if we see up to 3 trades within it

[XClown1986]

This is the team that makes the most sense. Vikings add a second round pick and still stay in the top 10. Bills finally get a replacement for Jason Peters, and protect their quarterback, while improving on their run game with Spiller and Jackson. Win-Win IMO.

If this trade doesn't happen, the Panthers should become very interested in Riley Reiff.

Casserly is a good source. There maybe something to this rumor.
