Bills Fan since '64 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Interesting article by Bill Barnwell with plenty of Bills mentions. http://grantland.com/the-triangle/the-possibly-intriguing-nfl-qb-trade-market/
Prickly Pete Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) There isn't one guy on that list, that I think has any better of a chance of leading the Bills to a championship than EJ Manuel. In other words, they all suck, and none will ever win a Super Bowl. Edited December 11, 2014 by HoF Watkins
Dragonborn10 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 You could get Cutler with a 6th round pick but then you take on the contract too. He is a cancer but he is way better than anything we have here. He and this defense make the playoffs no doubt.
thebandit27 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 RG3 or Kaep, if and only if, the team hires a HC like Art Briles.
BuffaloWings Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I'd be willing to give Foles a shot, but I think his success is directly related to Chip Kelly's offense.
Talley56 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Call me crazy but I still like RGIII and Nick Foles. But if we do go after either one we better upgrade the o-line.

He is a cancer but he is way better than anything we have here. He and this defense make the playoffs no doubt. I doubt. He might make the playoffs, but he will never win the big one. I realize plenty of people just want to make the playoffs, but to me that is just marking time. May as well just keep Orton as the starter then, he has just as good of a shot to make the playoffs, really. I want to see a QB that is top shelf. Keep developing EJM, and draft more QB's. The chance of a really good QB hitting the market is pretty much nil (and none of these guys are really good).
Charles Romes Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 You could get Cutler with a 6th round pick but then you take on the contract too. He is a cancer but he is way better than anything we have here. He and this defense make the playoffs no doubt. The question is whether he's a bigger cancer than Jeff George. Very similar cancers. George made the playoffs with the Vikings after defenses figured out Cunningham
prissythecat Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 RG3 or Kaep, if and only if, the team hires a HC like Art Briles. Why would anyone want to install a read option offense in the NFL?
Buftex Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Honestly, I don't seen anybody on that list that is so much better than what we already have. Cutler is the only one I think is clearly better than Orton and/or Manuel, if he is in the right situation. And his cost his way too high. The other guys? Sure, some of them are intriguing, but not at what they would cost.

He and this defense make the playoffs no doubt. no you couldnt, trading someone for a 6th round pick is basically dumping them and with as many QB needy teams as there are the Bears certainly are not in a position where they need to dump him just to get rid of him

The chance of a really good QB hitting the market is pretty much nil (and none of these guys are really good). We all do...but those guys don't grow on trees. I'm with you. I can deal wiht Orton and EJ, along with another developing player (somebody with more upside that Tuel- a top 4 round pick, perhaps) over just throwing a lot of money at a name player that has already proven he is not that great. The question is whether he's a bigger cancer than Jeff George. Very similar cancers. George made the playoffs with the Vikings after defenses figured out Cunningham They were both "mercurial" but I really think Cutler is a little mis-understood sometimes. George was kind of a loud-mouth punk, ego-maniac. The knock on Cutler is that he just doesn't seem to care enough...those closest to him seem to think he does, he just isn't good with the media. I think they are pretty different. Of course, I have always liked Cutler.
Maddog69 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Kaepernick would be an interesting pick up.
thebandit27 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Why would anyone want to install a read option offense in the NFL? Every single NFL team runs elements of the read-option; it's not just for running offenses.
boyst Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Yawn. None interest me. None of the FA's coming out interest me. Mariotta or Winston are not all that impressive, either.
prissythecat Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Every single NFL team runs elements of the read-option; it's not just for running offenses. Yes . But RGIII and Kap have been crappy outside of read option .
CountDorkula Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 There isn't one guy on that list, that I think has any better of a chance of leading the Bills to a championship than EJ Manuel. In other words, they all suck, and none will ever win a Super Bowl. The Bills cannot go into next season with EJ and Orton as the front runners. EJ is an unknown who at this point can not get it done. Orton has proven he cannot get it done. I am all for bringing in any of these guys to see if they can push this team over the edge. Yawn. None interest me. None of the FA's coming out interest me. Mariotta or Winston are not all that impressive, either. SO we should just go with Orton or EJ?
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 It's not that interesting. I'm sick of other teams' trash. Get real offensive coaches and develop a guy.
