Although he is not a immobile like a Brady, Manuel does not have anywhere near the running ability of TT (or Kap, Cam, Russell, etc). I seriously doubt that there would be many designed runs for EJ.

To be fair, BB has had a much more varied list of desired QBs over the years. Colin Kaepernick John Skelton Tyler Wilson Tyler Bray Blake Bortles Johnny Football

Yes, Freddie's 5 touches a game-even with Marshawn out-truly make a difference.

Freddy is playing a bit role in Seatlle. Maybe 4-5 touches a game. Would expect his numbers to look decent with a limited role where he is not the go to back.

Well since Luck is an awful QB, maybe the Bill can package a few low round picks and make a trade to take him off of Colts hands.

To be fair , it was not just BB who wanted to trade for Mallett in past. With his mythical upside--which still hasn't shown up-- Mallett was apparently worth as high as a 2nd rounder.

Kap = BB approved QB. Trade for Kap.

No. EJ > Luck.

I would argue that there is no causality here and that Rodgers, Young , and even Tyrod only sat because the QB in front of them was considered better at the time.

What makes you think RG3 is salvageable? What about Kap? Similar skillset with same type of regression as read option goes way of dodo.

Teams are hesitant to bring in Welker at this point because of the concussion history.

If a different rule was in place, we probably would have won KC game last year.

Because opposing team will get the ball even if they did not establish possession of it after a fumble.

Brian aka Blake Bortles

Kiko is not above average, He's a legend as per lots of folks here.

Last year's was the "Emperor's New Clothes"

Ahh. I see the EJ apologists are coming out of the wood work.

Earlier this month, Astro had a pretty cool post on that included some stats for Freddie over past few seasons. Here is a link -> http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/180538-astro-notes-for-preseason/?do=findComment&comment=3666815 In it you can clearly see that Freddie's productivity has been in a steady (sometimes steep) decline the past few seasons. Is it really worth it keeping someone because people are emotionally vested in him? Likely not. Except that Freddy isn't a fullback and fullbacks typically play a much larger role beyond pass blocking.

Are there any teams that keep a running back in lineup just because they can pick up the blitz?

May not be many discussions about EJ this season if he is inactive most weeks.

That would be nice if Dareus actually was playing?

He sure did. Was fined $100K for interfering with potential touchdown. Lucky that the team didn't lose picks.

There were a number of fans on this board who said that Maybin wasn't coached properly while he was with Bills and gave the example of his coverage sacks with the Jets as proof that he had been "coached up" .

Maybin did manage to remain on an NFL roster for 4 seasons ;-)

I see that Cam Newton is a tier 3 QB .
