Buffalo Beeeews Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Witg the FA QB crop in as bad of shape as it is, combined with the fact that the Bills don't own a first round pick, if the Bills don't pull off the unlikely blockbuster trade for a viable starter, I say just ride it out with EJ for 2015. If it dont work out, spend the 2016 first rounder on a qb or pray the FA crop is somewhat better next year. I'm not sure what the fascination was with McCown by some fans, but this fan is thankful he wound up in Cleveland... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndirish1978 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Oh good, I was afraid with all the QB threads already on the board that we wouldn't have another one pop up restating this opinion. Concern alleviated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sort of on the same page, but I don't think this is a particularly bad FA QB group - it is typical. It is very rare for a good QB to become a FA. Peyton Manning was a rare exception and was only available because the Colts had the great fortune to be able to draft the best QB prospect to come out of college in the last decade - in a different year, the Colts NEVER would have considered letting Manning go. Further, in my opinion, finding a QB isn't as simple as having any 1st round pick. There are many years when there are zero good QB prospects and many others where you have to own at top 3-5 pick to have any shot at any good QB prospect that is available. There just aren't many very good QBs. Edited March 1, 2015 by OldTimer1960 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of a first round pick is irrelevant here because neither Winston or Mariota will be available at #19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
217014170 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 The next Bills QB will come through their draft process or has already been drafted by them (EJ). It's the Steelers way and that is what Whaley believes. The days of panic and overpaying are over. Be happy. Whaley will build an all encompassing, self-sustaining football operation focused on long term success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Dude, all we need to do is trade a 4th rounder for a top 5 QB and we're IN the Super Bowl. Obviously. Edited March 1, 2015 by Heitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I wish we could talk about the real issues concerning this team. Why isn't Mario Williams wearing number 90. Kelsey retired! Is Garrison Sanborn really the best we can do? WTF is a kickoff specialist!? Something about letting Jairus Byrd walk Should have kept Lynch We passed on Jimmy Clausen...TWICE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Why hasn't anyone brought this up before? It boggles my mind - and it's been boggled aplenty that no one has thought about the QB situation yet this off season. It's like Bills fans just don't care.

17 Josh Allen Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 There is no dilema all the Bills have to do is this. My prediction is that the Bills will draft Bryce Petty out of Baylor. if that happens I will be a very happy man. I feel he is the best QB in this draft. Yes you heard me right. He will have a better career then Winston and Mariotta. Many of the experts at the combine said he threw the best ball and his arm is a rocket. One guy said it hurt to catch his balls. I done some scouting on this guy. I have listen to his interviews and how he carries himself. This guy is a leader and the way he comes across reminds me of a Russel Wilson. This guy is 6 foot 3 inches tall and 230 pounds. Proto type QB he is the total package. My prediction is the Bills will Draft him and they will never look back. I still feel the Bills will sign a Vet QB my hope is it will be Matt Moore and he will start the year out as the opening day QB. But by years end Bryce Petty will lead us to the Playoffs. I encourage you all to go on the Internet and watch some of his game play and listen to his interviews. The guy is more then a 1 read QG. Watch how he throws the ball where only his reciever can catch it. In the past before the Bills made there selections in drafts I was one of those guys who wanted the Bills to draft Russel Wilson and then Collin Kapernick. So here we are again at a new draft and if I'm the Bills GM I would Draft Bryce Petty QB out of Baylor University. Bills can sign a lot of free agents because Pegula is willing to spend the money. So what ever short comings we have can be done in Free agency. But when it comes to the QB the draft is where we will get are franchise QB. That Franchise QB is one Bryce Petty. They should not wait to the 3rd round because he will not be there. As a matter of fact he could slip into the end of the first round. So the bills might have to trade up or if he is there at pick 50 which is there first pick in the 2nd round they should pull the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orton played well and will be fine. If not then Brad Smith can take over. What's the big deal? There is no dilema all the Bills have to do is this.
