DanInUticaTampa Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) There are so many things that factor into who we draft, we don't have a clue right now. the biggest factors being: 1) Where we land in the draft 2) What holes we fail to fill in Free Agency 3) How the pro prospects play the rest of the year. Right now, I think Luck is worthy of a #1 pick, but that can change in a heartbeat. I certainly wouldn't take a LB at 1 if that is where people are leaning. Right now, a lot of us (inlcuding me) are guessing assuming we get the 1st pick.... which may or not happen. If we somehow go to picking 3rd or 4th, then that will certainly change a lot. Really, we have no idea how the season will unfold and who we end up with. But if we do get the first overall pick, I almost guarenttee that we will know who we pick by the end of march.

BhamBillsFan Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 PLEAAAAASEEEE. Fitz is not a long term answer for this franchise. He's nearly an effective stopgap, and if we do in fact get the number 1 overall pick, we're taking a QB. So you want to take a gamble on a QB when there really aren't that many Sure things out there and Fitz is emerging?? We need Defensive linemen and Offensive lineman more than we need a QB. You have no clue. Why is Fitz not a long term answer? Please explain. Have you heard of late bloomers. DL and LB's? We picked up Dwan Edwards, and took 2 D-linemen with our first 3 picks and you still think we'll go d-line with a possible number 1, 2 or 3 draftt pick? What D-lineman is worth that spot in college football right now? Nobodys gonna wanna trade up with us and pay that much money for a player. We're taking a QB. NOTHING wrong with taking a QB and having him sit for a year or 2 A great line makes average QB's look good and all great teams have great lines, on offense and defense.

DanInUticaTampa Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 A great line makes average QB's look good and all great teams have great lines, on offense and defense. too bad teams like the steelers, packers, and eagles don't have great Olines. they could be great with them!

lets_go_bills Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I love that someone resurrected this thread just to spite the OP. Makes me laugh. I wonder if he'll come and admit how off he was? Not that Fitz is a franchise QB, but the exact opposite of what he predicted happened. Funny stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) This week everyone can get a much clearer look at the true Ryan Fitzpatrick, and why he will always be a backup. Jacksonville is terrible, and having a good game against the worst secondary in the league doesn't prove much of anything. A solid Baltimore defense is going to put him on lockdown, and his QB rating will fall. FAIL....FYI you made my sig Thanks for the info Nostradamus. Really.

NaPolian8693 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Didn't read the responses yet, but I think we can all agree it's pretty evident at this point that Ryan Fitzpatrick is mediocre at best and not the future of this franchise.

Buffalo Billy Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Fitz is still listed as the top fantasy QB of the week. Complimented by both Evans and Johnson being in the top 5 for WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaPolian8693 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Okay, Fitzpatrick obviously played a great game. I was wrong. I still don't believe in him as the future QB of this franchise. However, as a fan, I can only feel proud of the effort and performance he put out there today.

NaPolian8693 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Don't have such kneejerk reactions to a good game. Rob Johnson had nice looking games. Losman and Edwards looked good at times. He played well today and I was wrong about my prediction, but the Ravens weren't taking the Bills seriously and the Bills came out fired up giving their best effort. Good on him for playing his heart out. If he keeps playing like this, they will stick with him. When he inevitably falters, I hope the front office can make the right decisions in the draft.

And I quote... "Fitz’s passer rating was 106.1. It marked the sixth straight game the Bills QB had a passer rating of 80 or more. It’s the longest streak by a Bills QB (min. 20 att.) since Jim Kelly’s 6-gamer to open 1991 season. Fitzpatrick has also now thrown a touchdown pass in seven consecutive games. It’s the longest streak by a Bills QB since Drew Bledsoe’s 10-game streak to start the 2002 season." That's not "just one good game". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This whole idea that "well Fitz had a good game, because Baltimore didn't take Buffalo seriously" is ridiculous. Even aside from old Nappy here, there's a few others I've read trolling around using this so called logic. I think most could agree with the stance of waiting and seeing how the remainder of the season plays out to see if Fitz continues to shine. But seriously... you're going to try to take away from the guy's performance because "well... the other team just didn't take us seriously, but just you wait now that teams see this, they'll be more prepared" Really?
