CountDorkula Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I don't see it happening ! Roman wants a mobile QB & Petty is no that guy . Unless a endorsement comes from Roman i don't think Whaley will do it . Petty, not mobile? He ran plenty of read option at Baylor. He is very mobile as far as QB's go. He's no Mariota, but he is plenty mobile.
major Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Jeremy Fowler @JFowlerESPN · 31m31 minutes ago Browns showed a little interest in Bryce Petty, Rams and Saints showed more. Something to keep in mind for day 2. #browns #NFLDraft2015 Do you think we move up in the 2nd round to take Petty?

thebandit27 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I think that there's a greater chance that the move DOWN if Petty is there than move up to get him. It's just my opinion, but I can't envision a scenario where they bring in a QB prospect and end up cutting either Taylor (who Rex seems to love) or EJ (who will cost them $3M against the cap to cut). I firmly believe that any QB added will be competition for Tuel for the PS/developmental role.
dave mcbride Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Well, PFT has us taking Petty: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/05/01/pfts-2015-second-round-mock-draft/
Canadian Bills Fan Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 If we draft Petty when Maxx Williams and AJ Cann are still on the board then I will lose it CBF
dave mcbride Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) If we draft Petty when Maxx Williams and AJ Cann are still on the board then I will lose it CBF If they believe he has the potential to be a top 10-12 QB, you can't not take him. You can certainly question whether they're right about the individual player or not, but if you're running a team without a QB and you have a chance to take someone you think will be a really good one, you HAVE to take him.

TheFunPolice Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 How will you ever have a QB if you don't take them until you find one?
BuffaloHokie13 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 How will you ever have a QB if you don't take them until you find one? Not taking Petty in the 2nd or 3rd doesn't mean we will not select a QB at all though
Green Lightning Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Not taking Petty in the 2nd or 3rd doesn't mean we will not select a QB at all though Taking a good qb requires taking a shot in the early rounds as a rule. I agree that if you don't try you won't get. And we haven't tried. A 6th or 7th round flyer (I know, Brady) is not a recipe for success. If they thin the guy can be a franchise QB one day, take him.
CountDorkula Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Not taking Petty in the 2nd or 3rd doesn't mean we will not select a QB at all though How often do 4th rd and on QB's actually make an impact?

He got better as the season went on and had a miserable receiver corps.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I thought that Carr was impactful. He got better as the season went on and had a miserable receiver corps. yeah, I think it's early for the 2014 guys, I wasn't sure if I should include them at all
dave mcbride Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) yeah, I think it's early for the 2014 guys, I wasn't sure if I should include them at all Your point still stands regardless. I wonder whether it's even right to include Carr. I remain convinced that the only reason he ended up being drafted in the second round rather than first was because he was the brother of David Carr, as big a bust as Jamarcus Russell if you think about it (and at least Jamarcus didn't string teams along with false hope!). My favorite David Carr stat: in his final starting season for Houston, he led the league in completion pct (68.3) but only had 6.3 ypa. That's really hard to do! It's like every pass is a screen!
