C.Biscuit97 Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 FWIW, I liked the Peterman pick where it was. I was kind of hoping for Josh Dobbs to be that guy but he went 36 picks before. That is an important role and one that the Bills need. If Peterman is here for 4 years and ends up starting 10 games (as an example) it's great value for a 5th round QB. If he can be .500 he will land a NICE 2nd contract. Man, there were games where Dobbs looked like he shouldn't even be drafted. I'm not a big fan of his but going to Pittsburgh will be great for him. Peterman is the opposite of Jones and I think it's a solid pick. If he turns out to be a backup, it's a good pick. I think if Trent didn't have to play right away, he could have been a top backup. That said, we are mostly likely picking a qb next year. And like you, I'm on the Rosen bandwagon. I also like Rudolph too.
manbeast Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 haha...go read my post again, please. Let's see if you're big enough to own up to the mistake. Most posters aren't. Sorry got your post confused with another.
Figster Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Sorry got your post confused with another. well done
manbeast Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 It's officially the offseason when we declare a later round, average talent qb is comparable to Brady or Montana. Trent Edwards loves this comparison. And I'd love for you to be right! That's every season, forgive us for hoping to get lucky.
Royale with Cheese Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 I expect Peterman to win the MVP this year.
Saxum Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Yeah, but his career went a lot farther because of Gailey. He should've never lasted this long, honestly. Hardly "honestly" since you have posted multiple times you thought Fritzpatrick was not a good QB but plenty of teams signed him. Brady has a very strong arm now...there are ways to increase arm strength via exercises/workout regimens HGH help too but Br*dy would never do that - that is cheating!
BUFFALOKIE Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 That highlight video showed me NP throws as hard as he needs to throw. Soft/hard depending on situation. There were more than a few bullets in that video, and plenty of Soft (catchable and on target) throws too. His arm strength does not seem an issue to me. I'm excited for the kid. Great pocket awareness is what I see most.

BUFFALOKIE Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Throw in a few F5's and this is golden. No comprendo. F5's are reserved for high profile free agents. What do you mean?
145B4IDIE Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 No comprendo. F5's are reserved for high profile free agents. What do you mean? Sorry, probably wrong thread. It was my inner 5th grader reading Soft/hard, bullets, arm strength, pocket awareness... Peterman. I'll try to keep it in the Jeremy Maclin Cookbook thread in the future.
GG Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 There are a lot of comments about Peterman having a noodle arm - accurate, yes, but weak. The consensus is that with less than stellar arm strength he can only progress so far; like back up QB or maybe a borderline starter, with the club necessarily always on the lookout for a better guy who can really get the ball out the way it should be - with plenty of zip. I have watched a ton of Peterman highlights and have always wondered what those naysayers were talking about. In the highlights that I've watched I have seen a lot of 35-45 yarders with what seemed to me to have a good deal of power behind them, and one that was exactly 50 yards, right on the money. I was trying to find that one so I could post it here for all the doubters, but instead found this one. Go to Nate Peterman 2015 Highlights - YouTube and you'll see at the 12:05 mark, a 53 yard toss, from the opponent 45 to his 2, right on the money for a TD, with a 1 step-up delivery. Have a look and then tell me that he'll be limited by his weak arm. You might check out the entire tape to see a lot of excellent throws. There are many things about Peterman to get excited about. But if he had a strong arm, he doesn't make it out of the first round
Crusher Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Agreed. And congrats for McCarron for being the new super overrated backup qb title holder. And Thise are two guys who won't have close to career of Fitz. Neither will Peterman or Jones. More definitive statements that show a lack of respect for the unknown...that's exactly what we are talking here. You just don't know how any of These guys careers will go. And the true irony here is you are claiming Peterman can't surpass Tyrod, but by your logic, Tyrod would have been given no chance of having a career like Fitz either. Do you see how silly these statements are?

Do you see how silly these statements are? Well stated, Crusher. I don't understand how anyone writes someone off before they even had a camp. Apparently knowing more than the GM that drafted them is why we get blessed by some people's proclamations of future and eminent failure.
RyanC883 Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 I'm going to go out on a limb and disagree with you on both McCarron and Peterman. with all due respect same here. I think McCarron and Peterman are likely to be better QB's than Alex Smith. Who has "game managed" into playoffs, unlike TT.
Doc Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 same here. I think McCarron and Peterman are likely to be better QB's than Alex Smith. Who has "game managed" into playoffs, unlike TT. Compare their defenses.
Green Lightning Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Peterman will be an live option until Tyrod can show he has the ability to see the middle, complete clutch passes and show up when the game is on the line. I am not holding my breath.
Kirby Jackson Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 same here. I think McCarron and Peterman are likely to be better QB's than Alex Smith. Who has "game managed" into playoffs, unlike TT. I'd bet anything that Alex Smith finishes his career with more yards, wins, TDs, starts, & completions than those guys combined. So I'm not sure how you are defining "likely to be better?"
oldmanfan Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 I'm sure he'll get his chance to impress coaches this summer. I'm sure his arm strength will not be a deal breaker. And I'm sure TT is our starting QB this coming year.
