Description
Buffalo has enough young players and prospects that they can afford to take a swing on a player like Timo Meier. Meier being an RFA is key, as it gives Buffalo the chance to try and sign him or they can qualify him and look to move him in the offseason if he refuses to sign. The trade is essentially three first round picks for Meier (which I believe he is worth). Buffalo fans, let me know what you think :)

Not nearly enough. You know no one is buying your "stuff I dont care about = 3 firsts"

Krebs is easily worth a first plus. A top 15 pick from last year is literally a 1st round pick. And a 1st round pick who's developed very nicely (that defaults to a 2nd round pick if he doesn't sign), plus a 2nd is easily worth a 1st... and if he doesn't sign 2 mid-late 2nds is worth a top 40 pick. 3 1sts is pretty damn close to 3 1sts

I think they mean 3 first overall picks. I understand your confusion.
