ricojes Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 if there's been no official 'commitment' by now, you would think he's gone. the silence from OBD says it all. If it were the Rex regime, this would definitely be true...

Not saying they won't move on from Tyrod - but I have the opposite take. Technically the bills only need to make an announcement/make a big deal out of it if they are going to cut Tyrod. They can technically do nothing up until and past march 11th, they don't need to do anything to keep Tyrod except let the time run out. He's already under contract. They don't even need to sign their names on anything.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 if there's been no official 'commitment' by now, you would think he's gone. the silence from OBD says it all. I disagree. I think the Bills aren't sold on Taylor as a long term answer, but they also don't want to paint themselves into the EJM/Tuel Time corner of 2013. I think right now it's a Giant game of chicken where the Bills have a list of calls they want to make March 7-9. There's a price that would be a no-brainer for them to bring him back, Taylor's agent understandably doesn't want to settle for that when maybe Taylor could get more on the open market. There are probably 1-2 guys the Bills would prefer to bring in if they can get them at the price they've set, if not they will stay with Taylor and draft. We need to move on. He isn't the QB that is going to get us where we need to go. I think that's probably correct, but they still need someone to throw the ball next year unless they're planning on tanking.
Heitz Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Soooo, we're either dropping Tyrod, or keeping him? Got it / TGIF
jr1 Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Sam MonsonVerified account @PFF_Sam 9m9 minutes ago More Cutting Tyrod Taylor because he won't ever be Aaron Rodgers is like hitting on 17 in blackjack. Sure you can do better, but likely won't.
GG Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Why cut him? If there's indeed a two day window to trade him, they should do that.
Marty McFly Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 more flip floppin then boardwalks in the summer
Big Turk Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Well, this is not how you treat the future of your franchise. Can you imagine a relationship in real life like this?! Bills can't put a ring on it, time to move on. You mean one where the man holds the power in the relationship? I'm sure most betas of the world couldn't fathom how that is possible.
dave mcbride Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Why cut him? If there's indeed a two day window to trade him, they should do that. Why not just keep him?
Chuck Wagon Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 I can't wait till we cut Tyrod for nothing in a crazy QB market, then trade a 2nd round pick for Siemian.

Sure you can do better, but likely won't. Not the case. You have to keep trying until you hit 21. We have not done that for 20 years and where are we now?
GG Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Why not just keep him? If that's the decision, then fine. But if they're moving on, it would be silly not to trade him if there's truth that there is interest from more than 1 team.

Bills can't put a ring on it, time to move on. To your point I think the fact the this "decision" has been so publicly a played out tells me the Bills have already decided he's not the guy next year and are just seeing if they can get something for him.
Bills_Chick Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 My prediction is still that he'll be back on a renegotiated deal.
JohnBonhamRocks Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Not the case. You have to keep trying until you hit 21. We have not done that for 20 years and where are we now? Plus we aren't dealt QBs. We get to pick them. We even determine how much money to offer, or, in the draft, who to pick. Further, we even have a hand in determining where we pick by our play and trades!

Yes, I agree with the 'game of chicken' analogy, but as it stands, and the way you're laying it out sounds like they will keep him if they "have to". Which also lends itself to the current official silence.
