  1. He is better than Cousins so if the Bills got lucky with his health then they really hit the jackpot. Watch the game he played week 1 against the Saints if you want to see how good of a QB he is. If he is the free agent target they definitely need to secure a QB for the future. Even if they get a healthy season from him this year it is unlikely they would get multiple.
  2. I think this is more likely the Blaine Gabbert, Christian Ponder, and Jake Locker draft. (2011) Newton was in that draft as well, but like 2011 I expect more busts than franchise QBs this year.
  3. Prior to legal tampering It was easier. If a player signed a complicated contract at 12:01AM there was obviously tampering. You can't get that done in 1 minute.
  4. They should begin free agency right after the combine then. If they have tampering rules they should be enforced.
  5. Washington should file tampering charges. Legal tampering doesn't begin until Monday.
  6. As of right now we are a much worse football team. Hopefully that changes the first week of free agency. I don't have much faith in this QB class.
  7. I bet they use the pick to select the best non QB in the draft which may or may not be Barkley. We could try to trade up but I"m not sure they would be willing to pass on an elite talent that could be had at 2.
  8. They had a bend but don't break philosophy and did a pretty good job with it. The San Diego, New Orleans, and Patriots games were disappointing though.
  9. It is due to the constant changes to the coaching staff and schemes. This should change over the next 3 years.
  10. Brees is closer to 6'1 and has the arm length of a man 6'5 in height while Wilson can negate the disadvantage of his height by moving outside the Pocket. Mayfield doesn't have either one of those advantages. I like the kid I do not want the Bills to draft him.
  11. If you suck you have the advantage of simply staying put and drafting a franchise QB. If you are decent but lack a franchise QB you have trade boatloads of picks to move up. It doesn't seem fair. As bad as our reputation is, we have had zero top 2 picks since 1986. I top 3 and 1 top 4. We are bad at being bad.
  12. Former GM Charley Casserly believes that they are equal passers but Smith is more mobile and can make throws outside the pocket. Smith will also be much cheaper. I think it was a nice move by Washington.
  13. The one thing I have learned from this board is that the next QB class is always better than the current one.
  14. I would rather have Wentz in the long run but it is hard imagining him having a better game than Foles had in the Super Bowl.
  15. I feel like he is a good starting QB in the right system and a bad one when not. The 27 TDs against only 2 INTs when he last started in Philly and his failure with the Rams is proof of that. He isn't going to dominate based on talent alone. If our new offensive coordinator is competent picking up Foles might be a good course of action. Assuming he is available.
  16. I don't think sarcastic comments help. If the topic is repetitive you can simply ignore it. It is a good way to get to 70,000+ posts though.
  17. This year's Bills won more games by being conservative than they would have if they took risks.
  18. I think he will be available in round 2.
  19. I do not think Cousins is worth the cost and I do not think there is a franchise QB in this draft. I guess we are screwed.
  20. Tom Brady has masked a lot of the mistakes they have made.
  21. I hope Tony Boselli makes it in. He was the only offensive lineman I can think of that completely neutralized Bruce Smith. I know his career was short due to his back, but he played at a much higher level than Joe Thomas in my opinion, who is a lock to be a first ballot Hall of Famer. I feel like Lewis, Moss, and Owens should be locks but WRs usually have to wait to get in, especially when they have questionable character. It is said that Alan Faneca is a lock to make it in, but Kevin Mawae and Steve Hutchinson seemed like a better players to me. I might have a Mawae bias however, due to his career battling Ted Washington during his time with the Jets. Urlacher was outstanding, but similar to Boselli, his neck shortened his career. He should get in though.
  22. In a game where there are 10 people playing instead of 22 an individual can have a much larger impact in the NBA. That does not mean however, the Jordon was better, just more impactful. They are both the best players in their sport in the 40 years of my life.
  23. If the Bills had two good drafts in a row they could overcome Cousin's huge salary since rookie contracts are very reasonable right now. If they missed on their picks they would be hurt badly because they would have a hard time resigning their own players and signing free agents.
  24. He would need to stop playing first. I'm not sure that will happen.
