How many first-round picks would Bills' Josh Allen cost in a trade?

"Pick a number. Five? Six? Seven? The Bills aren't trading Allen for any number of first-rounders after ripping up his old contract in March and signing the reigning MVP to a six-year, $330 million deal, the vast majority of which is practically guaranteed. You don't need me to tell you he's an incredible quarterback," Barnwell wrote.

"The only concern some teams would raise about the 29-year-old superstar is his style of play. Attempts by the Bills to rein in Allen as a runner and finisher at the end of plays have mostly gone unheeded or been abandoned to sustain a wildly successful offense. There's always a perpetual concern he's going to take one too many hits and get injured or wear down quicker than expected, but at the same time, he hasn't missed a game since his rookie season in 2018. There are only a handful of teams that wouldn't drive their starting quarterback to the airport if it meant acquiring Allen."

A trade involving Allen would arguably be one of the biggest in NFL history as nobody has been traded for five first-round picks before.

While Allen won't be traded, this exercise is further proof that the Bills quarterback is the most valuable player in the NFL and he is of paramount importance to Buffalo's winning plans.

If Allen were to win a Super Bowl with the Bills, this number would be even higher, but not even 10 picks would get the team to trade its star quarterback.
