Chandler#81 Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Even though we traded down before tabbing him, he's officially a *BUST*.
DC Greg Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 4 yrs an NFL qb and counting. Yep. Trash Only on the Bills would he have lasted so long. He is awful. Even though we traded down before tabbing him, he's officially a *BUST*. The only saving grace from EJ Manuel's tenure with the Bills is that trade down which became Kiko, which became Shady.

Chicago Cleveland Etc would have all had him
oldmanfan Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 I wonder how many years it will be until the EJ threads stop. You'd think the guy was Charles Manson or something the way he gets beat up. The guy didn't work out. So be it.
Bill_with_it Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Not only did he not work out he inadvertently through Doug Whaley's stubbornly arrogant way set this franchise back at least a few years.

Baloney. Let me guess...you're one of the guys saying "take a QB in the first every year until one works out" and then when one doesn't he is to blame for everything wrong. The Jet have picked how many QBs the last few years? And none of them could beat out Fitz. You can take shots in whatever round you'd like but until they work out, they don't work out. It is not EJ's fault that: 1. He was picked in the first 2. The league is so skewed toward QBs that a guy like him could be picked in the first.

We had Fitz and could have waited. I didnt say it was EJ's fault our GM has an inability to scout and draft worthy qb prospects. There was nithing wrong with taking a shot on EJ just not where we did, and then failing tk realize he wasnylt worth sticking with for so long. You have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them. Clearly we didnt fold when we needed to.

The guy didn't work out. So be it. I don't think it has anything to do with EJ really. People who were not fans of EJ and his terrible play were shouted down, mocked with responses like "Just because he's not Tom Brady you have to criticize him" (which is asinine) and told to stick to Madden. Now that reality has vindicated them they are vocal. It really has more to do with sports fans saying "I was right all along" than the guy himself. It sounds mean but EJ is irrelevant to the NFL and its fans.

A real GM would've cut his losses on EJ long before London, only a proven chump would've kept him around to the bitter end.
BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 It's weird because he was the best QB in that draft and the best backup QB in the NFL, and now nothing? A Russian conspiracy is the only explanation I have. Beyond obvious.
Pbomb Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Exactly. A real GM would've cut his losses on EJ long before London, only a proven chump would've kept him around to the bitter end.you must be a big doug whaley fan
FireChan Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 you must be a big doug whaley fan How anyone can be a fan of mediocrity is beyond me.
Nklaiste1 Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 God can't believe Whaley used a first round pick on this guy. We are so screwed with this guy running our team.

TheFunPolice Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 (edited) John Murphy is warming up the fanbase for the "EJ is re-signing as our backup QB" sell.
