Maury Ballstein Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Not to worry. If there is one thing Buddy and Whaley know, it's when and where to draft a QB. :bag:
billsfan in n.h Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I would be very pleased with Wilson or Geno Smith in Round 1. I agree that Wilson kind of got hung out to dry in a number of ways this season. The things I'd want to make sure of are whether there are lingering effects from the concussion, and that he seems like a guy who can adapt to his third system in three seasons. I don't know about Wilson but Geno Smith looks like a toothpick and would be swept away in a good December wind at the Ralph
Hater Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 John Kryk reported Monday that Arkansas quarterback Tyler Wilson would be sitting down with Bills scouts in attendance for a one-on-one interview

Mr. WEO Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Jim Kelly 6-3, 217 lbs. Geno Smith 6-3, 220 lbs. Stop your facting! Jim Kelly was 7 feet tal if he was an inch--and 275 pounds of solid steel with a beautiful head of thick, lustrous hair! Don't you blaspheme!!
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Stop your facting! This should probably be in the God thread, but we should probably draft Geno Smith if only for his power to give TSW posters brain damage. I have yet to see a reasoned argument against the guy that doesn't involve the Pinstripe Bowl as the only exhibited evidence.
OldTimer1960 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I haven't seen anything that says he CAN play qb at the NFL level other than he is allegedly tough. Hell, Fitz and Trent were tough. Both got up after hellacious hits and kept trying. They just weren't good enough to win with. Joe Kaap and Bobby Douglas were tough too. I am sure Tim Tebow is as tough or tougher than Tyler Wilson and he can't play either.
Estro Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) not overly impressed with Tyler Wilson. The Wilson I liked was the one that the Seahawks drafted in the 3rd round last year. Some of Russell Wilsons best attributes are where Tyler Wilson struggles the most, IMO: pocket presence and throwing accurate on the run. The best QB's in this league all share one common attribute. They can all make plays in muddied pockets. Obviously you have the Russell Wilsons and Lucks who can use their legs to move around and take off or throw on the run. But you also have the Flaccos, Bradys and Roethlisbergers, who have that keen pocket presence to keep their eyes downfield in a breaking down pocket, reposition themselves, get setuo and fire a strike downfield. Now I realize prospects in the draft thave the ability to learn and improve, but when I look at Tyler Wilson as a prospect at this very moment, I don't see that key attribute in his game at all. On the flip side, this attribute was evidently clear when assessing both Russell Wilson and Andrew Luck coming out of college. Watch Tyler's game tape, and you'll see that when he's forced to move in the pocket he looks 1 - slow and 2 - loses a lot of accuracy and power on his throw. Compare that to Nassib and I'm not wowed by him either, but I see a little bit more of that ability to keep the eyes downfield and deliver a catchable ball. And the best of them all, IMO, is Dysert. He really jumps out as a prospect when you assess his ability to create plays with his arm when the pocket begins to break down. Edited January 23, 2013 by Estro

truth on hold Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) http://forums.azcardinals.com/showthread.php?p=970273 He has the smallest hands of all the QBs at the senior bowl. That is pretty small. That was Knock on Alex smith coming out and thought responsible for his fumbling problems. I'm biased towards guys who have the physical and athletic requirements for the position, but if theyve proven they can get it done otherwise so be it. Edited January 23, 2013 by Joe_the_6_pack
#34fan Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) "With the 8th pick in the 2013 NFL Draft the Buffalo Bills select.... Tyler Wilson..... Quartback...University of Arkansas" I like the sound of that . Less than 94 days and #8 will be our QB and #14 can clean out his locker. No sacasm intended but Wilson doesn't need Fitz hangin around. A new era begins April 25, 2013. I have no problem whatsoever with Wilson @8, assuming we don't go D... I think he's pretty good. Powerful arm. IMHO he's a much better athlete than barf-ley, and simply LIGHT YEARS ahead of Nassib in every meaningful way. I would have liked to secure some of those KILLER LB's, and safeties, but Wilson is not a bad pick @8 if you really need a QB. Edited January 23, 2013 by #34fan
CarolinaBill Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) Wilson appears to have taken the lead in Mobile, and as you may or may not know, at the Sr. Bowl, practice and interviews are more important than the actual game http://www.arrowhead...ce-update-day-2 or this one http://www.buffalobills.com/media-center/videos/Bills-Roundup-Buffalo-Goes-Deep-With-QB-Prospects/dc987bcb-4ba2-433f-942d-59839da3fd2a Edited January 23, 2013 by CarolinaBill
Simon Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Toughness is overated. See Marsha Brady. He might be a self-important jackass but I wouldn't question his toughness.
ET1062 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 You know what they say about guys with small hands.... ...they wear small gloves.
T master Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 It was reported that Wilson had an interview with the Bills last night. He's got my vote , has the best QBR of all the QB's coming out this year i believe & his QBR is pretty consistent through out his college career ..

This isn't gonna sound right, but Wilson uses his eight inches better than Nassib uses ten. -Just an observation.

JPS Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Dave Kreig had tiny hands and did OK. Culpepper had small hands. I dunno anything about Wilson, but I don't want any measurement to determine his fate other than CAN HE PLAY? I'd hate to lose another good QB because his measureables weren't right.
