dayman Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I don't watch much of Washington and I know he's been pretty bad for them in recent times...but he has talent. You think him and Tyrod would be a good combo? Tyrod and some other mystery QB will both start a good number of games for us next year (based on the way this year went w/ injury). Would you want a Roman-coached RGIII on deck for when Tyrod can't go? Not really sure who else will be available next year. Edited November 27, 2015 by Rex'sOffense
dayman Posted November 27, 2015 Author Posted November 27, 2015 I'd rather draft a new QB. If there is some sort of great break where a good looking guy drops to us then sure...but that usually isn't the case. I know I don't want a completely green, mediocre rookie in a place to play games for us next year. We're too good to start a rookie IMO (even in spots as a back up). I really don't want to see entire games lost solely b/c the back up is terrible next year.
8-8 Forever? Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I think TT will be fine. He's is playing hurt a lot now. Too early to tell. Lets see how he comes through the season. We will have no shot at a good QB in the draft, so forget that. Maybe Kaepernick, because he knows the offense and has had success in the past... RGIII, nah
GunnerBill Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I don't know I see the three QBs at the top of the class all going in the top 10 so depending where we pick one could slide to us. But regardless even if that isn't the case I don't want RGIII here.
KD in CA Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Nope. Don't really see what he brings (other than media nonsense and an immature attitude) that the Bills don't already have in Taylor.

purple haze Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I'd rather draft a new QB.& Why not both? Draft one and bring one in? Edited November 27, 2015 by purple haze

jr1 Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Defensive coordinators figured him out. He's useless now
truth on hold Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Yeah, provided the contract is structured favorable to us, I'll try anything
flmike Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) Really shows how much the NFL has surpassed the college game, doesn't it? These great, athletic college QBs are failing fairly regularly. RG3 is probably done or on his way to back-up land (c.f, Michael Vick). The verdict is still out on Newton. He will likely make it since he is tall enough and throws pretty hard (if not always well). EJ and Kaepernick are probably done. Wilson still hanging in. I was very suspicious of the love affair with the running QBs for the NFL level. The punishment and schemes force them to be be - gasp - quarterbacks. The formula for a franchise QB hasn't changed. He has to be really smart (fast smart, that is) to read defenses and know his teammates (both receivers and blockers) and to make quick decisions on the run. He has to be tall and solid, have an accurate and strong arm, and a real hatred of losing (yes, I just describe Kelly, Marino and Montana). Brady is a bit of an anomoly. He has most of those things, but is not tall or solidly built. He has benefitted from rules changes that were meant to protect him and he is so accurate and smart that he doesn't need to rely on the long ball a lot. He also has a coach who figured out how to be successful with him. In the draft, look for these physical and mental attributes, but nothing replaces that hatred of losing and the ability to carry a team to a championship. I think too many talent evaluators still think a QB can be taught to be winner at the most difficult level. That just seems stupid to me. Edited November 27, 2015 by flmike
GunnerBill Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Brady is a bit of an anomoly. He has most of those things, but is not tall or solidly built. Come again? The 6ft4 Tom Brady is not tall? How tall are people where you live?
flmike Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Come again? The 6ft4 Tom Brady is not tall? How tall are people where you live? LOL He seems short when watching him play. Maybe he just has even taller linemen!
