OldTimer1960 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Why must we always weigh the options of grossly overpaying for a QB which we could have drafted ourselves for a relatively cheap price? Why can't we be the team with the problem of having a young promising QB to dangle? Of course, these are all rhetorical questions. Well, the obvious answer is that the Bills' didn't think he was very good. I guess if you think a guy with a 1-5 record, 6TDs and 5ints is a promising young QB then the Bills' certainly blew it again.
Bills Fan since '64 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 They probably should have drafted this guy last year and it looks like he may be available. Do we go after him? He looked pretty good at times for Philly at the end of the season. Just remember, this guy was second string qb because he managed to beat out the immortal Trent Edwards

And some want to trade a 3rd for him.
ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 No.. Let the eagles trade him to the chiefs.. Then hope Alex Smith goes to Arizona.. Then we get GENO SMITH! #BOOM... Only if the football gods like The Buffalo Bills as much as I do would this happen...
mob16151 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 If he's any good, why are the Eagles shopping him? Thier not,the Reids interested in him. According to the Eagles him and Vick will be competing for the starting job. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/15/report-eagles-have-no-plans-to-trade-nick-foles/
KOKBILLS Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Just remember, this guy was second string qb because he managed to beat out the immortal Trent Edwards He was also a Rookie who far outperformed most expectations in his 1st year... Just saying...
CBD Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 This. Let's just move on. TJ, Fitz and a rook will battle it out. That sounds so awful
Green Lightning Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 That sounds so awful Is what it is. What other reasonable scenarios do you have?
NewEra Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 If he's any good, why are the Eagles shopping him? I don't like Foles. I pray he's not a Bill, but I can see a reason the eagles are shopping him is because he doesn't fit Kelly's system in the least. He's useless in that offense. Why keep him?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Carson Palmer could be a cap casualty in Oakland because of their horrendous cap situation. that would work, now I'm intrigued
Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Is what it is. What other reasonable scenarios do you have? we try to get a real QB in here. No team would ever admit it and even the coaches wouldn't be in on it but what if the "owner" (Brandon) thought our best chance at a QB would be to tank the season to get a franchise QB.

I hate to say it, but I'm all in. I don't believe that there's a QB available that could conceivably help us win is a Super Bowl, especially in the next season or 2. We've been BAD for so long now, I could deal with a 2-14 season if it meant we were going to be able to draft a potentially elite QB. Watching Fritz this season, unable to CONSISTENTLY be a threat on passes longer than 10 yards, made me ill. 4th qtr drives to potentially win a game......all end in the same fashion......pick. I miss Jim Kelly. I want a superstar QB. One more bad season is worth it IMO.
Captain Hindsight Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 that would work, now I'm intrigued Really? Do we get Palmer from 2003 or 2013?
8-8 Forever? Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 So he looks good at times? How does he look the other times? PTR +1. Fitz has looked more than good at times and everyone on this board wants the guy drawn and quartered. Poor bills fans. So desperate. I just hope RGIII is ok so I can continue my allegiance shift to the Redskins, oh I mean "Warriors" , or is it "Blueskins " \(but that would offend blue man group..).. well.....

Behind the worst offensive line in football,and with a under utilized run game. Context is your friend.
