Which means nothing...you don't draft based on past results.
Its because he is mistake prone, injury prone, and doesn't play to the same level against good teams that he does against bad ones. Its not like he's having a good game and the team around him is letting him down.
People let fantasy football scoring mask effective play. Because he does well in fantasy as a high volume thrower, people over look that he has more Int's and Fumbles than TDs in his career. Its amazing how most people don't even know that. And in his 3 best years where the Colts made the playoffs (benefiting form playing in what the worst division in football at that time), he never had a post season with more TDs than INTs...not once.
Again, not saying he is a bad QB, but I would never give up 4 firsts for a QB whose contract is worth more than his play on the field and has become one of the most fragile QB's in football. Not to mention, the Colts went 6-2 without him 2 years ago and only had 1 win with him that year.
Am I reading this wrong?.... because he has 132 passing TD's and 14 rushing TD's.....144 total.
He has 68 INT's and 10 fumbles.....78 total (not sure how many lost)

No one cares what Matt Darby has to say.
I was thinking Matt Darby or Mark Pike.

Don't know that they did it with everyone, but they've interviewed most, if not all, of the established locker room guys.
And McDermott always keeps Kyle, Wood, Lorax and Richie updated. He meets with them a lot when it comes to team matters.
OP....that's fine. The former Bills player you spoke with is entitled to his opinion and it's something that should not be thrown out....he's been in a locker room.
He might be right, he might be wrong. One thing I know is winning cures everything.

Sammy just threw confetti for his week 1 matchup vs Colts backup CB.
I think the Colts best defense against Sammy is Jared Goff.
-
I hope Indy goes like 4-12 and has either the first or second pick....perfect trading partner for us because they have their QB and I would think Pagano would be gone. A new HC would want to acquire as many picks to build his team.
-
I would not blame Kyle one Bit either way
You all are right. We should just post reporters articles and tweets on a Message Board. That would be fun.
You're being a little dramatic.
We don't have to just post reporters articles and tweets. We can have threads with more substance that a grasping at air speculation.
Ahhh the same reporter that was on WGR all days talking about How Dareus contract is untradable.
Does LORAX say no Kyle is not contemplating retirement?
On the last page, you specifically stated Lorax isn't going to put any of his retirement business....now on the next page you're using what Lorax isn't saying.
-
What you think a fellow teammate is going to put any of Kyles Business to media
You really think LORAX is gonna say yeah Sal Kyle is thinking about retiring.
He said he was coming back later in the week. You have no idea what the issue us.
You bring up Lorax won't say anything about retiring....he won't bring up anything personal at all.
No one knows outside of the locker room knows what's going on.
-
Richie would beat him 10 out of 10 times. Richie is relentless and I see Marcel as a guy that you can break his will pretty easily and can't fight fatigued.
I'm not sure if it happened but wouldn't be surprised if it did. Anyone who has played sports and been in a locker room probably has fought a teammate at one point.
-
My point was changing things that work isn't a good approach.
The Broncos were 12-4 in 2014 and 13-3 in 2013 with a Super Bowl appearance.
They cleaned house and the next year in 2015....they won the Super Bowl.
-
well... for one, he couldn't be. He's not a serviceable NFL player. I'm sorry. It has nothing to with the Bills.
Anything would be an upgrade from Cam Erving. A rock would be a better pick-up.
at this point I recommend home schooling
I'll take your word Yolo since I think you're in the know about this.
No to Irving!

Tell this to Mike Tomlin. Who kept the same defensive scheme and most of the defensive staff intact when he got hired in Pittsburgh despite running a cover 2 in Minnesota.
It's popular tkeep a staff intact based on their performance.
Mularkey did it when he came in here in keeping the defensive staff intact after Greggo got fired.
Scott,
I believe you feel the definition of "most" means 100% of the time. I never ever ever ever said 100% of the teams bring on their own staff.
Dick Lebeau was also the defensive coordinator in two different stints for 12 total years coming off of a Super Bowl victory......also with an organization that's only had 3 different HC's in the last 40 years.

How many had roster decisions that needed to be made by the 3rd day of the league year? Wood was extended after being evaluated through camp and some preseason games.
I really don't think it matters as you can restructure deals at almost any point. Kyle Williams took a pay cut after the new league year 2 years ago....how many other Bills had theirs slashed this year?
I think it's farfetched to think Wood was just evaluated in the last couple of months. He's been starting for the Bills since 2009, he has a good track record.
I'm not interested in going back and forth on this topic because it's been discussed so many times.
IMO, the Bills paid Taylor a salary where they feel he's worth and were ready to move on if he didn't accept. If the new staff was truly evaluating everyone, there would be more reworked contracts.
Taylor accepted the deal because he realized his value isn't as high on the open market as originally assumed. His agent was having "loose" discussions with other teams...which is also tampering because Taylor was still under contract with the Bills. Betting on himself made more sense....his current deal would be lucrative is he plays well and they pick up his option after this season.
-
Tyrod is here because Dennison wanted him, his contract was cut because the FO wants to evaluate everyone on the roster before committing to them.
Okay so how many players on the Bills roster had their contracts cut? And why was Wood extended?
-
Because new Bills coaches always have to hire their cronies.
You know most teams coaches hire people they know. You're acting like this is uncommon.
Unless you think it's more popular to assemble a staff with people who you don't know.....
Heavily complaining?
I said they should've kept him around as depth considering how well he played last season filling in for Glenn.
Scott...you complain more than anyone on this board about everything Bills related.
This is news to you?
-
They could have just walked away and acquired another veteran FA QB just like Hoyer who they were actually negotiating with. The point and question remains why did they bring him back at any price if he doesn't fit the offense?
Also take into account they might have been wrong thinking he could fit the offense somewhat. Beane made it very clear the type of QB they are looking for.
Belicheck recently did this with Kony Ealy. Thought he would be a good fit to replace Ninkovich but were wrong and shipped him out.
-
This is one of the rare "we should get this guy" threads that I agree with.
He's better than any trash we're playing at RG right now.
-
If he doesn't fit the scheme, then please explain why McDermott and Dennison brought him back as their starting QB.
I think if they were very confident he would fit the scheme, they wouldn't have cut his contract essentially in half and put another walk out clause next year.
His contract was re-worked 7-8 months after originally signing it.
The contract on the table was to pay Taylor one of the lowest salaries for a starting QB outside of rookie contracts. That's what the FO felt he was worth and IMO were ready to walk away from him if he didn't accept. Hoyer would probably be our starting QB if Taylor pursued other options.
-
I don't know of many starting QB's who stayed on the team more than one season after being demoted.
It's best for them to move on. -
Bradley Gelber Retweeted Jason La Canfora
Per @JasonLaCanfora, Dareus was sent home before Saturday's game because he missed the team bus while trying to find a parking spot. #Bills
This only happens if he's late. If the bus leaves at 4:00 pm, don't arrive at 3:59 and give yourself 1 minute to find a spot, park, get out anything you need and then walk to the bus.
That's not what LaConfora wrote, Brad. Or whomever Brad was retweeting. He missed the team bus at the hotel, then drove to the stadium and was looking for a parking spot at the stadium. Not much of a difference but if you are a reporter you should get things right.
Thank you for clearing this up. Makes sense now....
-
Right; it's obvious at this point he can't play full-time, or he'd be on a roster somewhere.
The point wasn't to move Glenn; the point was that it was a one-year band-aid option to get the best combo of 5 on the field--it didn't materialize.
The point may not be to move Glenn but he's still being moved. Lessening your LT talent to improve your RT isn't worth it IMO.
-
Never saw anyone say that.
I (and others) did say, however, that given how well he performed last year, it would be worth considering if the team's best combination of 5 OLmen would include Cyrus at LT and Glenn at RT.
I don't think you said that but I read from many that we should do that. I always found it odd we want to move our best LT.
I know Kujo filled in here and there in spot starts and time but he obviously didn't show enough to be considered a full time starter. That's what my stance was....never liked the idea of moving Glenn. Kujo has been let go by 2 teams in the last 3 months.
-
I play Peterman a half, then the new guy. I would go ahead and name Peterman the starter right now for the Jets and just get it out of the way. The team needs to be able to prepare for the first game and not wait around to see if tie rod gets well or not
Why in the world would you play with Peterman then? Risk him getting hurt when he's currently your only active and healthy QB?
Wenning is only here to get us through Thursday.
-
Anything about the cornerback battle? I'm assuming Gaines is in the lead?
-
I was told he's good enough to be our starting LT and we should move Glenn to RT....
Just talked to a former player from the SB years

Hells yeah!
Let's get us some Dwight Drane as well. Maybe he's hanging with Marvcus Patton.
