I'm an old person, and would be thrilled if only old people died from this virus. Unfortunately, young healthy people have died, and are dying from this virus

Meatloaf, I'm thrilled to hear that there is a cheap generic drug that I can take so I don't have to worry about dying. What is it's name? Do you think I can order it on Amazon? Do you think cynicism and sarcasm will minimize its efficacy?

There will be no 2020 NFL season. If things go very well, in regards to vaccine development, NFL a year from now is at best, a possibility. Unfortunately, no matter how much a fan of the Bills you are, (and I have followed them since they first drafted Richie Lucas), no 2020 NFL football is the least of our problems. Stay away from others when you can, don't worry about paying rent or mortgages, (courts will not be functioning for quite sometime, whether the government puts a hold on evictions or not), hope that the government can make sure that people don't go hungry, and most of us will get through this.

If that's the case, it would seem nuts to sign a high price vet at the position, no matter how good he's been in the past. Besides the price and the culture fit, you have no idea what future production will be beyond an estimate based on past production. It would seem this is where you go to the draft to supplement Singletary.

I've seen in numerous threads that transition from college to nfl is difficult for WR. To those who have some degree of knowledge, how tough is it for running backs?

well, with Brady gone, we'll see how good Belichick is

I probably agree, but when looking at the culture McBeane is trying to build, sitting these guys out says to the rest of the team, (and especially the rest of the starters), "these guys are more important than you" They are, but do you want to announce it to the world? I realize you're talking depth, but I think the optics are bad.

Given Josh's measurables, those things that are facts, not subject to opinion 1. age 2. contract 3. size 4. speed 5. arm strength and his immeasurables, those things that everyone has opinions on 1. Intelligence 2. work ethic 3. leadership 4. potential 5. competitiveness 6. and most important-ability to be an NFL QB I was wondering how many and which nfl gms would trade their starting QB straight up for Josh today. I'm convinced that the pats would do it in a heartbeat, but only once this season was over. Thoughts?

There are a lot of people who love Josh, some who don't. He's got strengths, he's got weaknesses. But what I think is indisputable is that at WORST, Beane drafted a QB who is 1. a hard worker 2. a leader 3. strong physically and mentally 4. mobile 5. intelligent and most importantly 6. a qb we can win with I think on draft night 2 years ago, pretty much everyone would have signed on to that

I realize its a small sample size, but his 4th quarter qbr through 3 games is 125. Is this just an anomaly, or does it tell us something about JA?

in front of a speeding car-no in front of the dallas defense for a base salary of $570,000 and roster bonus of $709,898 (spotrac) , hell yeah, and I bet most posters here would also life is much easier when one is able to recognize sarcasm

I'd say it's actually good for rosen 1. He gets to play 2. 99% chance he looks bad-nobody will blame him 3. 1% chance he looks good-he's a hero 4. He gets injured-well at least he won't have to do this again for a while

Yes, along with all the other types of games

Sorry, but there's no way you can short Cookie

I find it hard to believe that in today's nfl ANY player anywhere is 'under the radar'

Wade???

If he did, "nevermind"

to all those who are shocked/surprised/disappointed- Apparently, not one of the other 31 nfl teams thought shady was worth as much as a 7th round draft choice (I assume McBeane would have taken one in a trade at the risk of "disrespecting" shady), either due to current salary, recent production, age, locker room presence, whatever. If 31 nfl gm's thought he had no value, what makes you think McBeane would or more importantly should feel otherwise?

speaking on behalf of sentient beings everywhere - nu-uh

At this point, one of the wide receivers or running backs on the roster would probably be a better back-up than tyree. Question, is it pronounced tie'-ree or tuh-ree'?

Speaking for sentient beings everywhere Nuh-uh

While I appreciate and respect the response, I believe this is truly the definition of moot point

if he develops, you keep him. He won't

I know it's early, and I'm certainly not anointing Josh as the second coming, (although he certainly appears to be moving along nicely towards what many think he may ultimately be capable of). It just strikes me that for the first time in a long time, we seem to be in really good shape as to both starting and back-up qb. Are he and Barkely the best pair since Kelly-Reich, the gold standard? How about Bledsoe-Van Pelt, or Flutie-Johnson? Any others? Thoughts?

my question was meant to discuss whether it is really worthwhile to use a PS spot on a developmental QB, or is there an opportunity cost to that, if in fact a PS qb almost never goes on to be a serviceable starter or backup, as indeed seems to be the case based on those who provided relevant answers, (thanks), and perhaps it is more worthwhile to use those 10 PS spots on other positions that have shown a greater historical ability to make an active roster as a starter or back-up.
