  1. A lot of people say that next year's draft (2014) will have better QB's in it. Who are the one-year-away quarterbacks that we should be looking forward to?

     

    Really -- I can't think off the top of my head who is so good but not draftable this year. Does anyone on this board know who "they" are talking about?

     

    (And don't forget that once upon a time people were looking forward to when Matt Barkley and Landry Jones would hit the draft . . .)

  2. I say this every year because it's true every year.

     

    There is always -- ALWAYS -- at least one QB who was OK in December, or maybe even a prospect in December, but then shoots up the draft charts because the experts get impressed. Last year it was Ryan Tannehill. The year before that, Blaine Gabbert and Jake Locker. I'm always amazed at the guys who get better every day without playing a game than they were playing every week.

     

    Maybe some guys actually are worth it (Tannehill showed better than anyone expected, but let's not get carried away for one season); others make you wonder what everyone was so excited about. That's where I am on Glennon: he could be this year's Combine champion who never does anything else.

  3. Actually, it was baseball. He was already playing with KC Royals before he started his football "hobby" during the baseball offseason. His contract with the Raida's kicked in after the baseball season ended. I don't think he missed a game to injury those 3 years prior to the dislocated hip.

     

    That's exactly right. It meant he started pro football in October every year.

  4. Jerrah scapegoating and protecting Jason Garrett who should be fired. Jerrah should stop trying to play GM and fire himself.

     

    I like Jerrah right where he is. One of the best things going for the rest of the league. Another GM in Dallas might actually know what he's doing.

  5. This. I follow the Seahawks as I live a couple of hours from Seattle. He was not the qb the Bills needed last year and he's not gonna be the one they need next year. Indecisive, weak arm and not incredibly mobile to make up for it.

     

    Yeah, I agree. I only meant in my OP that he's still a mystery in Buffalo. But if he's a mystery next year it will be somewhere else.

  6. OP was pretty much spot on but add this: Fitz is only gone if there's an adequate replacement, and I see him reworking his contract to stick around since there's no other demand for him. Thigpen will be cut in February. T-Jack is still a mystery -- for all we know he's exactly what Marrone wants.

  7. Something else different this time: I've been a Bills fan since the 60's and I can't remember the organization (read: Ralph) EVER being so public about the process and the candidates. I'm neither praising nor criticizing, just noticing. In the past whatever news we got was based on rumors and leaks. Even 3 years ago, the whole Shanahan thing -- go find something "official" that said either they wanted to talk to him or he wasn't interested. Everything was "sources say ..." Even announcing Chan was a surprise. This time around it's like courting Free Agents, the way PR's and announcements are coming out.

     

    Maybe this is just Brandon's marketing chops showing through, but I think we know more about what's going on in the search for a Bills HC this time than ever before and that makes it easy to jump to conclusions.
