GG Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Funny, I remember how in 2011 people were arguing against picking a QB early because it was worth waiting until Barkley came out. Or was it in 2012's void for Boyd? They all blend together after a while. Edited March 21, 2014 by GG

Bill from NYC Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 EJ is as talented, if not more, than every qb in this draft. That goes without saying. EJ is the most talented qb in NFL history. He would have went before Elway, and if this was 1983 he would have been the first qb off the board. Given the above, why bring in competition, right? Oh, I already got dibs on calling this year's first round pick a bust first. Bust! Sounds good. Can I have dibs on predicting that EJ is a lock for the hall of fame, or are you already on that?
dayman Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Blake Bortles reminds me a lot of EJ. yup...both suck btw
San-O Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Agreed. I'm not in love with any of these prospects. EJ has the intangibles and a high ceiling and I hope this year we see him get to that next level. Based on what? What are his intangibles?
papazoid Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 by any measure EJ Manuel was not in anyones Top 32 last year [except Buffalo's]. he was a reach. if he was in this years draft, it would be the same thing.

Dorkington Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Round up of TBD's QB opinions Vick > Geno > EJ > Vick

And Buddy basically said if the QB you want was a 2nd rounder you take him in round 1. As I recall. And Buffalo had no choice BUT to reach, IMO, as Buddy refused to draft a QB the previous years.
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I would take Bortles all day any day right now ! He will succeed and he will be great!! (Full discloser) I am friends of the family and have known him since he was about six years old! Either way he has the drive and will to succeed and I believe he will!!
filthymcnasty08 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 If we have to draft an EJ replacement next year, we will have yet another rookie season where the rest of the team is playoff-caliber. Wash, rinse…repeat. It's insanity for us to not have a wily, experienced vet QB on this team ready to step in.
PO'14 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Im giving Manual another Year. He had very good games and had HORRIBLE games. But damn, when he almost beat the Pats in the first game of the season, and when he was playing really good against Cleveland, I thought he was the man. By the way, after Mannings Superbowl performance, IM glad we have a young QB! ( for idiots out there, im not comparing Manuel to Manning, Im saying Manning chokes like SJ13) If we have to draft an EJ replacement next year, we will have yet another rookie season where the rest of the team is playoff-caliber. Wash, rinse…repeat. It's insanity for us to not have a wily, experienced vet QB on this team ready to step in. Yes lets get PixPatrick, FragileVick, DirtySanchez. Come on! ITS EJ or BUST THIS YEAR AND IM DOWN WITH IT!
DallasMac Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 yup...both suck btw Ej does a lot of the same things that he did in college that prevented me from being a fan. Dump offs and short throws. I'm really rooting for the kid and hope he gets better. He did have a few impressive games. Hopefully there will be many more this year.

ITS EJ or BUST THIS YEAR AND IM DOWN WITH IT! I'm with you brother…..but we just came off a season where we were exposed for not having experience at the QB position…giving away a few games as a result.....a little insurance policy would have been nice. Thad and Tuelbag are both learning like EJ. Dirty Sanchise would be legit….problem is, he'd beat out EJ.
RealityCheck Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Based on what? What are his intangibles? An enigma wrapped in a riddle.

BillyBaroo Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Get another good OLineman with #9 and I think EJ will show he was a good pick last year.
T master Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Garappolo! DITTO ! He has a Marino like quick release !!
