At this point it is due diligence and nothing more. Don’t make too much of the fact that they went out to LA for this. Teams do this all the time. No big deal. Don’t get me wrong. It could happen. This visit in no way portends anything for certain.

No big deal even if it is true. However, I’m not convinced that this is over yet.

The more things change ..........

Whether at the peewee level, High school level, college or the NFL the quarterback is the most important position on the field. You are using the TyrodTaylor argument that the reason he was so putrid was because he didn’t have enough talent around him. Bull crap! It’s always the other way around by and large. That’s football 101. The Tim Tebow comparison is simply wrong! But, unlike you, I will not resort to an insulting term describe your opinion. I actually respect it. I just completely disagree. In any team sport, by far the quarterback is the most important position. A distant second might be the starting pitcher in baseball but they never finish games. A distant third might be a point guard in basketball. Again, football 101. Have a good one.

In no way, shape or form is this comparable. Comparing Tebow to AJ is like comparing apples to kumquats. Sorry, missed this one by mile, didn’t you? Let me put it to you in another way. Who would you rather have playing quarterback for the bills of those two? Something tells me I already know what your answer is.

AJ may or may not be a franchise level talent quarterback. However, in my opinion, you way over state your opinion. I don’t believe for one minute that his statistics at Alabama, which are quite impressive, are diluted or misleading because of the talent on the field with him. They are exactly what you see on that chart. When you think about the quarterback position, it matters little who is on the field with him. It takes a great quarterback, at least a great college quarterback, to put up those numbers. To me, this is not even debatable.

I have the same feeling about Vea although my sample size is small. I just saw him and his ball game.He did seem sluggish and easily handled by whatever offensive Lineman went up against him. I saw no evidence of a big guy with a lot of athletic ability or the ability to penetrate. But, again, it just was one game. He did not impress me.

Maybe he was just getting a massage later in the day and looking forward to it. Or ..... we could be trading him to the Giants or Eagles..... or maybe something in between. I like it when I get a chance to use the term “cryptic”

So true! Every time they make a move there are a lot of traumatic reactions on the board. On the other hand, I think we need to cut those posters a little slack as, unfortunately, in the past there has been something to it in terms of the Pats* making some move and it turning out good for them and bad for us.

In that case, the bills should draft two of them to play it safe. In that way the odds are significantly increased that at least one of them will be a hit.

Love the Edwards pick. But, please, no first round cornerback!Either defensive line, maybe a center, or possibly even Rudolf if he is there

I do agree with this point and, also, I am “trusting the process”.So if they really feel that way about him and make some moves and give up some draft picks, so be it. I would be behind it.So if they really feel that way about him and make some moves and give up some draft picks, so be it. I would be behind it. Sorry, are usually dictate my post and, for some reason, occasionally it doubles down on what I say.

Good point! He should choose his words more carefully in that context.Good point! He should choose his words more carefully in that context.

It seems to me that there are more than a few talent evaluator out there stating that Allen is Way overvalued and even bust material. So it’s not just those posters here who don’t like him. But I agree, there is something tantalizing about him . If the bills can get him at 12 I would be OK with that. I would not be OK with him trading up to get him. If they trade up it has to be for one of the other three top quarterbacks in my opinion.

I’m not sure what your point is. Are you agreeing with me or disagreeing with me?

I actually hope they do this! Rosen is is no sure thing to say the least. I think every “top“ quarterback in this draft is overvalued. By doing this thr Pats* would loseMost of the best draft picks. They have some serious gaps in multiple positions. Please, let this happen!

The title is misleading. The only legitimate comparison is that a bunch of quarterbacks will likely be taken in the first round and three or four of them early. For this year’s class to dwarf 1983 we would have to wait 20 to 25 years and find out that four of these quarterbacks are in the Hall of Fame.The title is misleading.

I agree with this. Besides, the OP is wrong in asserting that Taylor helped out the offense of line with his scrambling. Just the opposite is true. The offense of line actually played pretty fair during 2017. The problem was Taylor’s tendency to panic under pressure and run into a sack.Again, embedded in the initial post is the ridiculous lingering narrative that Taylor was anything but horrible.

Well, the lead up has been crazy. The draft might be crazier!

It continues to boggle my mind that anybody would trade for Taylor. Such a horrible excuse for an NFL quarterback. I am really hoping that this lingering narrative that he was anything but terrible finally dies out.

What was the topic of this thread again?

To me it’s a red flag but it’s not a dealbreaker. But it is one reason, among several, but he’s not at the top of my list.

It’s a truism!

There is no position on any team sport played on this planet that is even close to being as important as the quarterback is to football. The closest, maybe, and it’s not even that close, is the starting pitcher in baseball. But they change every game and get relieved every game. So, I guess what I’m saying is, I agree with you.
