D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Judging by the pics his wife posted, Cutler's body is not "all that" any more and he's coming off an injury. When a guy is 33, 34 years old, you can't assume that any problems he's had in the last 3 years are due to scheme or team or coaching issues. He could just be hitting a wall with cumulative injuries catching up to him. Rare QB like Manning, Brees, and Brady manage to keep going. Schaub flamed out at age 31, Garrard at 32, Orton left the game at 32 but maybe he knew something about himself, bunch more. If the Bills are serious about wanting to build for the future, Cutler is not the QB block for their building. Great points. Pretty much debunks anything regarding him being part of the future doesn't it!
BuffaloFan68 Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Don't want anything to do with Cutler. Dude is a total head-case and a cancer to any locker-room he is a part of. Get it right Buffalo - NO Cutler. Go Bills!!!!!
DCbillsfan Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The worst thing the Bills could do would be a re-enactment of the Sammy trade and trade up in the draft to get a qb. The next worst thing would be getting Jay Cutler.

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Yeah that RG3 trade is looking real good now!
Maury Ballstein Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Yeah that RG3 trade is looking real good now! 200% more playoff appearances than the Buffalo retreads of Fitz/Kolb and Taylor.
aristocrat Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Trading up to get a franchise qb is bad ? 7-9 forever is better ? despite your amazing ability to eye talent....many don't think there is a franchise guy in this draft.
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 200% more playoff appearances than the Buffalo retreads of Fitz/Kolb and Taylor. Who in this draft are you trading 3 number ones for?
DCbillsfan Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Trading up to get a franchise qb is bad ? 7-9 forever is better ? Yes. It's still early in the process but per draft pundits there's no franchise qbs in the draft. So yeah the Bills should not trade the 1st pick to move up a few spots and give up the 2018 1st Rd pick and a 4th Rd pick to boot. If they draft a qb with an existing pick, I'm good with that. They have too many holes to give up picks plus it's just too costly. Edited January 20, 2017 by DCbillsfan
ndirish1978 Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Trading up to get a franchise qb is bad ? 7-9 forever is better ? The fact that you consider Cutler a franchise QB explains so much about you .
Wayne Arnold Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I expect a deal to be done or a pursuit of Cutty as an FA if he's cut this offeseason. Why? Kromer Connection - NIXED Now why would we let go of an OL coach who performed admirably with his unit this year, if not to clear the way because he was somehow an obstacle? Kromer's resume dictated a very serious consideration of retaining him. Dennison Medicine - Look at this man's track record with Cutler. Put him in the Pro Bowl with the #2 offense in the NFL in 2008. Along with these quotes: Cutler was not shy in his praise for Dennison earlier in the week on his radio show, saying (h/t Chicago Sun-Times): One of the best coaches I’ve been around. Very dedicated, extremely hard worker. Takes it very personally. I think he’s gifted in his game-planning. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1482046-chicago-bears-is-rick-dennison-the-perfect-candidate-to-help-jay-cutler I mean, can't you just feel the Cutty fever? In reality, it makes perfect sense. Cutty ain't commanding a big long term salary anymore. Perfect vet stop gap while we draft/develop guys with none of the TT long term baggage. You're welcome. You could be right. As long as we can get him for very cheap, I wouldn't totally hate it I guess. Would still much rather keep Taylor.
Maury Ballstein Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The fact that you consider Cutler a franchise QB explains so much about you . What are you talking about ? I'm in favor of ditching Tyrod for Trubisky/Watson/Mahomes. You coming at me with nonsense explains a bunch about you.
Wayne Arnold Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Trading up to get a franchise qb is bad ? 7-9 forever is better ? I like Trubisky a lot but there is no guaranteed franchise QB in this draft. In fact, I think Trubisky is the only QB worth a first-round pick.

Maury Ballstein Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Who's the franchise QB you would advocate trading up for? Trubisky in trade up Watson at 10 Trade back to 16ish for Mahomes. (Won't get past Texans)
LabattBlue Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I'm in the minority here, but I'd take Cutler over TT for the next couple years as a bridge until the next franchise QB is found in the draft(or Cardale). I know he will make more mistakes, but is also going to make way more plays with his arm. I'm sick of having a QB who won't throw the ball in under 3 seconds and won't throw the ball into tight coverage(trusting himself and his WR's).

He'd also project an I don't give a **** attitude that's devoid of any leadership that will infect the team. Nope! Nein Danke! Nyet! NFW!
BADOLBILZ Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Trading up to get a franchise qb is bad ? 7-9 forever is better ? Just a refresher for people here: This offseason the Bills will very possibly lose to FA or release: EJ Manuel Stephon Gilmore Eric Wood (increased likelihood since Groy fits the Kubiak offense better) Which would mean that the Bills would have exactly THREE of their first round picks left on the roster to show for the last 17 years of non playoff seasons: Marcel Dareus Sammy Watkins Shaq Lawson That sure ain't much considering that a QB they passed on at the beginning of the drought......Drew Brees.....is still slinging it. So anyone who thinks that taking repeated chances on QB's in round one is risky business really needs to look at the bigger picture provided by a Bills team that HAS NOT taken many shots at QB's in round 1. The first round isn't for patching holes.......and if you aren't going to take a QB you really need to spend that pick wisely........but QB's you gotta' gamble on talent......the returns both on a game-to-game basis and LONG term are so much greater it's ridiculous not to take many shots, IMO.
