ok smart ass.. I feel yah. But just to be clear. I was not asking a question about another thread. I read that thread. I was asking if any media guys had told us what the rumor was. IE: who was proposed to be traded and for who.

You OP by asking us to name a QB that "actually helped a rookie" then changed the question to "successfully passed the torch to a young QB" (I know semantics kind of) But what we lose sight of sometimes is the bridge is just a placeholder for a guy not ready yet. Just by being here and being the bridge he IS helping the rookie so rookie does not go in before he can stand the bright lights. Even if bridge or current QB hates him like Favre Brady and others have said or acted like they do hate the new guy, they help just be being here. But since you asked: Montana did best handing off to Young. A. Smith did very well handing off to Mahomes.(I know it is a little early but I am going with it, may be the best) McCown gets it: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000820945/article/jets-josh-mccown-vows-to-be-a-dang-good-bridge-qb Brees did well handing off to Rivers. Trent Green handed off to Kurt Warner(I admit a good stretch on that one) Kurt Warner handed off to Marc Bulger. Kurt Warner handed off to Eli Manning.(second best handoff after Montana to Young) Favre did well handing off to Rogers. (the poster child for just being present) Robert Griffin handed off to Cousins.(Griffin just did not know he was a bridge just like his 1st wife did not know she was a bridge)

Can't find any news about what this was. Since it never happened, why can't the media guys tell us what fell through??

Holly cap hell what are you breathing in that LA air?? NO TEAM GOES OVER THE CAP. On a yearly basis some teams are able to spend more then the cap legally within cap as you can bring forward surplus you did not spend the year before, but over the long haul all teams spend exactly the same amounts on a yearly avg.. PS: you do not win when you spend way less than cap as Bills Browns and others have done in the near past.

NO. But you are going to be an unhappy fan because they miss budgeted so now they can not afford to bring in talent to be a competitive team.

Earlier I noted he has the ugliest tats since Italians invented chest hair. I got a little run form that but it died down quickly.

If he plays at a high level in 2018 and and leads team to playoffs and has a great finish in playoffs........... dreaming of course........then they sign him to a long term extension.

OK. WE have not had these questions for a while as we have answered them many times. No disrespect intended at all, here are the reasons for why we find your question weird. We all get "it is not our money" "that we do not write the checks" As a fan what Fans want is a competitive good team to challenge for playoffs every year and have a chance at a Super Bowl every once in awhile. If your team spends more than market rate and overpays someone, they have less money to spend on the cap and can not bring in better players. EX: they could sign Aaron Maybin out of retirement to play DE for $150 million per year. Then could not afford any other decent players. They could sign a stud WR for mega money and then have to fill out WR roster with scrubs. Would you then say you do not understand why fans would be upset with that?? Just wondering how some fans can not understand this salary cap vs acquiring good players equation. Signing AJ to low contract means they can sign two more FA and be a "better" team.

Really? Bills are notorious for not commenting on contract value for decades. It is on connected guys in the reporting/internet media business with contacts inside to find this info out for us. You know. Like you Joe. (no disrespect intended)

Wow! Outside the box thinking. I like this idea-incubator mmessage board. Never crossed my mine to do that. Makes great sense if draft falls a certain way or Bills find no one willing to draft up to top 4 for other QB.

He gets a sign bonus so a large chunk moves up to right now and is guaranteed as he has it. Cap # helps team. Player gets more cash and faster cash that he can not lose if he were to be cut. Everyone is happy and it happens a lot.

Because they want R Smith LB.

Start Peterman w Fitz as b/u then. Problem solved.

also reported Brady "has no gag reflex" https://www.foodbeast.com/news/tom-brady-chugs/

Look at the time saving bright side. He was already recruited by Shady last year and toured the facilities for 2 (yeah TWO) days. He is all set. Just needs to make a decision. Shady does not even need to call him. He would fill the speed WR need. Personally I would tell him to go pound sand. He made the wrong choice last year. Let him go to a different team who loses out on a playoff spot by shitting the bed last game at home. If he wants a one year 4 mill prove it deal(w add incentives) to play into a good deal the following year leading to a good compensatory draft pick for Bills, then maybe I change my mind.

I would not as the Browns.....I would stumble and fall running to the phone to take this deal if I was the Colts. Hell If I was Colts i would then consider drafting Rosen and Darnold and Mayfield. I would call the Bills and ask who they want at QB before draft and agree to get him if available. I would then guarantee them that QB and negotiate premium compensation if I get him. Do the same for one more and keep the third. I would be happy with any one of them as it sets my franchise up for stars for a decade.

Good job my friend. You are on fire. I will not check old threads as I believe you. Keep up the good work. You are carrying your screen name to heart "alphadog"

You make an interesting point Freddie. I would like to see Beane sign a FA QB right now, then trade him for picks, or moveup, and for a player......lol This being a two deep chess move could cause NFL office to come unhinged as none of this can be happening right now per the rules. Goodell will need to define league year rules after he gets done explaining what a catch is. Will be good theatre I think.

Beginning of a regime starts with bullets flying......as it matures it gets very calm. Pitt GB NO all win year in year out because they have the great QB's. Many years they had rosters no better than Bills. Difference is QB. Same with Pats except I throw in they have much better coaching. When Bills get a franchise QB to add to a good coach, the Pats dominance will be over.

That Sal man....he really narrows things down for us so we can save time..........

Ruse? I think your girlfriend has rused you once too often. Seriously the writing is on the wall. QB or bust.

Yeah Johnson. He had some play except every time he fell down he came up hurt. One time he fell on the effing ball and separated rib cartilage. Man he was like a 25 yr old inside an 80 yr old body.

Webb and Peterman looked good in the snow. I know small sample size, but you asked.

I agree. Have you ever met people from New Orleans.?? They are a different breed. They talk down to you a lot and keep reminding you they are from New Orleans anytime you talk about quality of life and local musical talent/environment. etc etc....... Very hard to tolerate for too long.

I don't believe you.
