Doesn't really make a difference.

The Bills are a poor team which is steadily declining and Wang wasn't/isn't likely to change any of that.

I feel bad for Wang but this has nothing to do with the Ravens.

exactly. I don't expect Trade Talks to begin again just over one injury. I think we'll end up with Gaither this year, franchise him and have him for another year than let him go. If Buffalo still wants Gaither well they can fork over at least a 2nd round pick for him, no way do I want their first which will be the 1st overall pick in the 2011 Draft and Pick 33 is alot better than having the # 1 Overall pick, plus we'll be picking 32 anyhow so having back to back picks would be great.

I just can't see anything happening, even if the Bills end up with the # 1 overall pick, they can take a LT of their own or the projected pick of Jake Locker.

I don't have the exact Tweet from roughly a month ago, but Adam Schefter said that the Gaither trade is virtually dead, even if an injury were to occur, largely because there's not enough that the Bills are willing to give up, nor do the Ravens particularly want to part with Gaither when he still provides value to them.

Gaither will be a Raven this season.

And hopefully for the next few years.

Why would the 33[sup]rd[/sup] pick be better than the 1[sup]st[/sup] pick?

value wise...

1st overall has to get paid a ridiculous amount, the 33rd you still get an arguabley first round talent later... for ALOT cheaper


besides the first overall pick usually has a very high risk as a bust

..... I realize that, but I'm pretty sure that the 1[sup]st[/sup] overall pick can be traded, correct me if I am wrong.

It can be hard to move the first pick based purely on the record contract that goes with it, especially in weaker draft classes.
