st pete gogolak Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 This really should be a poll but I'm to lazy to set it up. OK, now. Here goes. The Bills "braintrust" decides it's more important to have Aaron Williams on the roster than Colin Kaepernick or Andy Dalton, more important to have Kelvin Sheppard than Ryan Mallett and more important to have T.J. Graham (!) than Russell Wilson or Kirk Cousins. So clearly, this offseason will be utter desparation time for Nix and/or Gailey (assuming either one is still here) to obtain an NFL-quality starting QB. Options include: 1) Trading a #1 for Matt Flynn or Cousins; 2) Using a Top Ten pick on someone who shouldn't go in the Top Ten (Barkley, Jones?); 3) Sign an over-the-hill FA (Michael Vick?). If these are the options, I'd rather go with 3 - Vick or someone like him. I don't want to waste a Top Ten pick on a QB reach, either through trade or draft.

BuffaloBill Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 A retread QB is not the answer. The Bills need to draft for the future. While very risky as a pick they will need to bet their first rounder and possibly use multiple picks to trade up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maury Ballstein Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 #1 for cousins! get er done! time to pay the "i'm too dumb to draft a qb in 3 years tax" i joke a #2 should be the play, but who cares at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Trooth Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 They'll double down and hire Cam Cameron, Making it two fired OCs in a row they've hired as HC. In reality Ralph deserves Jim Fassel as his HC. He'll tell him right where to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading our first for Cousins would not be an idiotic move. This team must roll the dice on a "QB of the future" and he's looking like the best bet IMO. If he doesn't pan out then at least they tried. What would be idiotic is putting a busted up "Vick" band-aid on the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st pete gogolak Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 Sorry, I guess the entire title of the thread wouldn't fit. It should have finished "in a desparate attempt to obtain a QB". Hiring Marv Levy as the 16th coach of the Buffalo Bills? I like it. You can't get much more idiotic than that, other than to bring him back as GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Cain Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Keep Buddy Nix, Chan Gailey, & Ryan Fitzpatrick. We need Tony Dungy, Raheem Morris, & Geno Smith in place of these fing losers! Edited December 17, 2012 by BigCountryBills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 In My Humble Opinion: Of your three choices, the first two could turn out ok, and the third one would be the least likely to benefit the team in the short term or the long term. Especially Vick. People are saying now that paying Fred Jackson was dumb because he is getting old and injury prone. What does that make Vick?

Marshawn's 20 bucks Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Keep Buddy Nix, Chan Gailey, & Ryan Fitzpatrick. We need Tony Dungy, Raheem Morris, & Geno Smith in place of these fing losers! Keeping the same coaching staff to me would be moronic. I think it will end up costing the team a lot in ticket sales.

Best Player Available Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Cut Lindell and deal a first to the Raiders for the polish cannon. That way gailey will feel a little more at ease on a 52 yarder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Trade draft picks for Megatron and AJ Green, keep Ryan Fitzpatrick at QB, and talk about drafting a #1 WR in the 2014 draft to help Fitzpatrick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterpan Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 HOw about extending Kelsays contract again? Or Fitz's! But I'm going to go with drafting Marcus Lattimore with our top 8 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB 1. RDE 2 LBs speed and three down players needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 My predictions. Fire Chan, hire Norv. They won't draft a QB again because they will wait until the 3rd or 4th round and the guy they want will be snatched away. Really, it won't matter cause Norv didn't get crap out of Rivers, he won't get much out of any rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
