Those "people" suffer from being fraidy cats and not actually knowing anything about the prospects. They say all the QB's suck every year so they don't get their hearts broken like they did by EJ and JP.
What's really shocking is the unity of the fanbase on BOTH trades.
Honestly, has there ever been a Bills GM who had near 100% TBD approval on two trades in a row? I think it's just Beane
Yes. Brought in for peanuts, jettisoned after he proved to not be the answer, and we made the playoffs with him at QB.
The biggest success of the TT era was that it only lasted 3 years, and we made the postseason in one of them.
