Tyler Bray, What a Joke

[Concrete Buffalo Feet]

Agreed^. live in Tn and with the two receivers Bray has (11 & 84) they should be better. A qb needs the physical tools but he also needs to be able to make every player around him better, Bray is not doing that...

Yes, I am. Have you watched him this year? He's looked fantastic. Back to the highly touted form of two years ago. I was skeptical at first too, until I watched him, he's back and looking great. Wilson has taken a hit based on team performance. Could climb back in though, no doubt.

Interested to see how he does against ND. I've seen him in person a few times because my daughter goes there and I had 'washed my hands of him.' But, he's played much better lately. Very nice games against TT and UT (where's Blue Fire? lol ). He's definitely climbing back into the discussion.

 

Let's say Landry plays well for the entire season. Does Nix use his logic of drafting players who have played well their entire collegiate careers (thereby passing on him)?

Sorry, it that were Nix' logic he would never draft a single player.

Watched Murray for 3 yrs too and not impressed, he'll be average at best.

 

I agree about Murray, because he throws entirely too many int's, but I just do not understand how you can feel this way about Murray and still think Bray is going to be a stud at the same time. You hear so much about the "it" factor, and Bray absolutely does not have it. If you team is down, Bray is the first one in the tank, so he's basically Cam with Gabbert's ability. By the 4th quarter of the UF/UT game this season, he was just slinging the ball, like the he just wanted it to end and move on; one of his passes even ended up in Dooley's arms. The only QB's we should touch from the SEC are McCarron, if he comes out, and possibly Tyler Wilson. I am still on the fence about Wilson, but I am hoping he finishes the season strong.

What worries me about Wilson is the Petrino Effect. We saw a bunch of QBs look like stars on Petrino's Louisville teams in the early 2000s, kids like Hunter Cantwell, Stefan LeFors, and Brian Brohm. But none of them were worth a thing as a pro.

Seriously, are we done with this non-sense yet? Not a single quality game vs a good opponent in the last two seasons:

 

2012:

 

Alabama 13/27 184, 0 TDs 2 Int

Miss St 13/24 148 2 TDs 1 Int

Georgia 24/45 281 2 Tds 3 Int

Florida 22/44 257 2 Tds 2 Int

 

2011

 

Kentucky 15/38 215 1 TD 2 Int

Vandy 16/33 189 2 TD 2 Int

Georgia 18/33 251 0 TD 0 Int

Florida 26/48 288 3 TD 2 Int

 

Please, let's keep the first round pick discussion to Barkley, Jones, and Smith (who may be playing himself out of the first round the last two weeks as well) only and get rid of this Bray crap once and for all. Thanks.

 

Jones......lol. Yeah he's awesome!!!!

[KOKBILLS]

I'm not saying by any means that Bray is ready, or that he does not have his issues...But in the 3 Games I've seen of him this year I've seen a TON of dropped passes...A couple that would have been easy TD's...And there is no question he can sling it...I doubt he's ready for the NFL...He needs work and another year in College...But he's not a joke...And he's got a big-league arm...

I agree about Murray, because he throws entirely too many int's

 

Murray has about the same TD/INT ratio as P.Manning did at Tennessee...3:1....except Murray will have more TDs by the end of his 3rd year than Peyton had by the end of his 4th.

It won't matter that you don't drink, cause Murray will be the better pro! haha

 

I'll even give you Bray, as well, since you're so high on him....I'll take Murray, you get Bray AND Jones....we'll see which of the three is considered the more successful QB a few years into their pro career.

 

Sounds good, I like EB Greens so you better work some overtime the week before

 

I'm with the OP. I watch a whole lot of SEC football and I'm not buying the Bray hype. I see the physical tools, but not the mental ones. What game was it this year where he literally fumbled the game away on a potential game winning drive? UGA? There's better options out there.

 

That is one thing I've noticed about Bray is he is not a gamer but he still has time to get better. That is what I liked about Casey Pachall was his ability to come from behind to make clutch throws on game winning drives although his arm isn't quite as good as Bray's (no one is).

You got it brother!!!!

At this point - almost any rookie QB is a warm welcome.

 

We should draft at least 2 QBs!

[NastyNateSoldiers]

made what deal? we didnt have the ammo to trade up like Washington did, unless we really did give up the next two-three drafts...and in that case, no thanks...even if RGIII turns out to be HOF (I really like the kid too)....you cant give up 10 players for 1...otherwise we would have RGIII for 5 to 6 years and have nobody around him, and then he hits free agency by the time we can build a team again...not a good idea...

I disagree with u and i will tell u why. Having a QB like RGIII is gonna do a lot of good things for a small market team like Buffalo. First of all the national attention the Bills will get will be huge we get more primetime gms. #2 his jersey sales are gonna go threw the roof. Bills will make big money on this kid. #3 Having a franchise QB will attract top notch talent (free agents and Coaches) to come to Buffalo. That will help make up the talent gap that we lost threw giving up all those picks. #4 This one is the most important with a true franchise QB we can become competitive again. Possibly challenge for a SuperBowl who knows. Tell u what though, it beats what we have done with our last 12 drafts put together. I would argue that RGIII is better than our last 12 first round picks put together.
