BillsMedia Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 If Yates alters a teams plan at quaterback then that team had no plan in the first place. Certainly in the 1st it does, yes. Trust me, Bills aren't going QB at 10.
papazoid Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 QB talk at 10 can stop finally, thankfully. noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo......lol hopefully just a live arm for training camp
BillsMedia Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo......lol hopefully just a live arm for training camp Nope, he'll be here all year. Dennison kid from Houston, don't love it but needed to happen for a vet backup to Tyrod. Tyrod, TJ, Cardale and draft a later round QB is the plan.
quinnearlysghost88 Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 the available free agent QBs are a trash heap: http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/quarterback/we had to go get a 'vet'. i don't see any other value in that mix. maybe Ponder. either way, we still need to draft..Trubinsky.
YoloinOhio Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 This is going to be the excuse to still not properly address the QB position.it is a vet backup who has always been a backup. They didn't sign a guy like Cutler. He knows the offense, it's an easy EJ replacement.
papazoid Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 whaley loves mobile QB's......watson will be his choice
nucci Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo......lol hopefully just a live arm for training camp He's the No.2
Beef Jerky Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 I do think this means no QB drafted early jmo That would be the stupidity that is Buffalo Bills. Sign a horrible QB and never draft one.
boyst Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 If Yates alters a teams plan at quaterback then that team had no plan in the first place.eloquently put. Yates is who I would want at 3 behind a rookie who may or may not be good. Say Fitz the starter, Manuel as a rookie backup, Yates as 3rd
Beef Jerky Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 He's the No.2 A team with no franchise QB would grab a bad QB as the #2...
Chandler#81 Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 QB talk at 10 can stop finally, thankfully. methinks you speak too soon..
Riverboat Richie Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 So Jones can't end up on the PS? Hardly a big time risk of losing him. Even if you do, provided you drafted a QB this year, so what.
jeffismagic Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 Yes, this signing means Cardale needs to step up more than anything.
YoloinOhio Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) Pretty sure we will find out where all the QBs shake out as far as 2,3,etc when preseason ends. In April, pre-draft, they are filing out the roster and they currently only have 2 QBs. Guys get hurt, they need to be prepared. It doesn't mean they don't draft one and doesn't mean they don't draft one relatively high. It means they needed a QB who at least has played the game of NFL football and this one knows the offense. No one said he was "good" -- the available vet QBs in April aren't good and the majority of backup NFL QBs aren't good. That's just reality it's why he's a backup and why he was available. If they signed Cutler or someone like that who had been a starter and could be a starter again then you might think they won't draft one, but they didn't. Edited April 10, 2017 by YoloinOhio
Buddo Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 This is going to be the excuse to still not properly address the QB position. If you've only got 6 picks, and plenty of holes to fill, why should you be drafting yet another project QB, when you already have one? In respect of being 'ready', this class is in the same boat that the one EJ came from was - i.e. they aren't. Now I think there might be a guy who sticks somewhere, but I'm not convinced, so it's quite possible that the only guys who are still around from this class in 3 or 4 years time, are backups, much like the EJ class. I'm not sure how you 'properly address the QB position', if there aren't any decent ones to be had. If there were a bunch of decent guys, or even a few, then it would be a different question, and possibly a sensible argument, but there aren't, so it isn't.
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 He looks like an IT guy or branch level banket more then an athlete. Ha! At least, we have another first name abbreviation guy with a J in their name. Thank god. I would bet on the Bills drafting a qb and him not making the team.

There are two QBs in this draft That will turn out to be very good ones.... Find them and take them. Otherwise your are just treading the 8-8 (+/-) two games every year.
