SBUffalo Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 FA - dont see anyone TRADE - Kirk Cousins or A Smith DRAFT - Nassib or Glennon and Casey Pachall Did you really just mention a guy that didn't even play college football this season because of arrest? Give me a break...
DE Bills Fan Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 So who do you want under center next year? Veteran or rookie? Who can we get and what will it cost? Personally, I'd like to see Mike Glennon fall to us in the draft, but there's 4 other prospects I'd be happy with too. LANDRY JONES
Rob's House Posted December 30, 2012 Author Posted December 30, 2012 I'm pulling for a Nassib type in round 2 being given a year to develop on the bench behind Fitzpatrick, who I would like to see us retain, given that there are no better options available to us in FA (and if there were, it's unlikely they'd want to come to a franchise intent on drafting a qb early) and it's silly to believe a team with a strong backup who's starter missed games with a concussion is likely to trade away that backup. I see that name come up a bit. I haven't watched him as much as the others but from what I saw he seemed like a less polished version of Glennon. Do you thing Nassib is better or just available in a later round?
SBUffalo Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 I think that if we don't get one of Smith, Wilson, Barkley or Glennon then we will be getting a project. Jones is next on my list of guys that could start relatively soon.

Glennon has a much better arm than Nassib. Nassib has to sit an entire year and just get coached up. He has NO IDEA how to control his arm speed. Has zero touch on his throws.
DE Bills Fan Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Landry Jones agree 100% Nobody is trading for Fitz... He's a $10 million BACKUP... And Smith isn't the guy we need. We need a playmaker, he can't do that. He's a game-manager that needs an elite defense. The opposite of what we have. agree
silvermike Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 LANDRY JONES I'm pretty sure it's "Lance." It's what his coach calls him, anyway.

Best Player Available Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 FA - dont see anyone TRADE - Kirk Cousins or A Smith DRAFT - Nassib or Glennon and Casey Pachall Alex Smith is a chump. Did you really just hear about him after Harbaugh got some mileage out of him. Really, Fitz and Smith are the same. And you would trade for that loser?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 FA - dont see anyone TRADE - Kirk Cousins or A Smith DRAFT - Nassib or Glennon and Casey Pachall Pachall is in rehab, maybe next year, he definitely has the skills though, real gamer. Nassib is a backup and Glennon is average.
Buffaloed in Pa Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 I don't watch as much college football as many here, but I don't like Glennon's 57% completion and 14 picks. Jones is the guy I'm most interested in right now, but I think there are a lot of guys that are going to have a chance to be good and available at #8 or #40 for us, without any Andrew Luck we are sad to miss out on in this draft. Bad receivers..dropping balls as much as 10 in one game.A horrible o-line and fired coach hurt Glennon this year.Last year completed 66 % of passes. Landry on the other hand chokes in big games and can`t throw a deep ball on target. Glennon bigger arm and much better deep ball. He will go before Landry.
Rob's House Posted December 30, 2012 Author Posted December 30, 2012 I don't hear Aaron Murray mentioned that often, but he looks pretty good. I thought he looked better than Tyler Wilson. What am I missing?
TakeYouToTasker Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 I see that name come up a bit. I haven't watched him as much as the others but from what I saw he seemed like a less polished version of Glennon. Do you thing Nassib is better or just available in a later round? Nassib looks to be among the best of a class very weak at the top, but a ton of guys who should be taken between the end of round 1 and the end of round 3. His pluses: Big arm, excellent pocket pressence, super quick release, mobile enough to make downfield plays with his feet but heady enough to look pass-first, has the ability to make all the throws, cold weather passer. His minuses: has busy feet, double and triple clutches his throws, pats the ball tipping his read progression, locks onto his recievers more often than he should, struggles to make the short touch passes, general lack of polish. I think as far as value goes, he's the best developmental prospect coming out this year. Most of his flaws are things that should be correctable with good coaching, and his upside is one of the best of this draft.
jjmac Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 What if we were to trade Fitz & a pick to SF for Smith? That way if whoever we draft needs time to develop, or doesn't get it done, we've got a guy who's maybe not spectacular, but solid to play QB and let our playmakers make plays. It would be a good move for SF b/c they get a solid veteran b/u who isn't disgruntled and gain a pick in the process (I'm thinking 4th?). Anyone think they'd go for it? Isn't Smith's arm strength an issue?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Did you really just mention a guy that didn't even play college football this season because of arrest? Give me a break... he did play a few games this year, just sayin
BillsFanForever19 Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Personally, I hope Aaron Murray comes out early. If he does, he's my favorite. Mike Glennon and Tyler Wilson follow in that order. I say draft one of them, bring in Vick, and keep Fitz. But he'd have to waive the bonus, re-structure his deal, and realize he'd compete for the job at best (ala Tarvaris in Seattle).
DocLawless Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Alex Smith is a chump. Did you really just hear about him after Harbaugh got some mileage out of him. Really, Fitz and Smith are the same. And you would trade for that loser? Exactly correct. For people on here like me who want an elite franchise qb to take over, asking for Alex smith makes no sense. He's a game manager just like fitz and IMO is worse than fitz but has had a better d. Yes BPA I'm admitting I was wrong about fitz btw lol
CarolinaBill Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Geno Smith is the best in this draft. His skill set with our skill players would be great.
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Glennon, Nassib or Fitz in that order
