BringBackOrton Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Lots of speculation if Teddy will be back or Bradford will be the guy going forward. Bridgewater had his career derailed by that gruesome knee injury but may very well be available. Should the Bills look into the third year player? He's still got a ton of potential, moves very well, may be the perfect fit in Dennison's horizontal offense. Arm strength with Teddy is questionable, but I think he has an adequate arm. Would you go after him? Would you give him $12M per in the offseason? (Throwing that estimate out there.) Edited October 15, 2017 by jmc12290
billsbackto81 Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 What is it with this fan base and the obsession with mediocrity. Aspire for better bud. TB is not,...well he's not TB.

BuffAlone Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 He don't have a leg to stand on, I wouldn't pay him to throw a fit, let alone a football. Besides, we have a healthier version of him already in Peterman. The best ability is availability, right? Therefore, hell no. He's a career backup from this point forward, for however many years he can hang on for. Sad but true IMO
K D Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) like what we saw with RG3, Bridgewater was good because there was the threat he would run. now that he has a bum knee he won't be mobile and as a pure pocket passer he is sub-par. so no thanks. :Edit: Guess I was wrong, I was confused by his Madden ratings where he's one of the best running QB's in the game. He's just a sub par pocket QB in real life Edited October 15, 2017 by kdiggz
Roundybout Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 He wasn't that great even before his knee exploded. 2015- 65% Comp. for 3200 yards, 14 TDs and 9 picks 2014- 64% Comp. for 2900 yards and 12 picks.
Scott7975 Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 I dont think Bridgewater has ever shown he was anything more than another mediocre QB like we already have on the roster. The Bills should just draft and groom their own.

He was a pocket passer. Bridgewater and RG have one thing in common and it isn't their mobility. With that being said I don't think he makes much/any sense for the Bills.

Real McClappy Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) *IF Bridgewater can ever come back from the nasty knee injury 100% he is worth a shot as he was still developing. He will most likely come back like Daunte Culpepper though who's promising future was derailed by major knee injury against the Panthers and ultimately ended his career. Fingers crossed for this guy though. Edited October 15, 2017 by Real McCoy

Doc Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 He wasn't that great even before his knee exploded. 2015- 65% Comp. for 3200 yards, 14 TDs and 9 picks 2014- 64% Comp. for 2900 yards and 12 picks. This. Throw in the injury and at this point the most he's worth is a league minimum prove it deal.
Jpsredemption Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 No. He was overhyped before he got injured. I will take my chances elsewhere.
BringBackOrton Posted October 15, 2017 Author Posted October 15, 2017 This. Throw in the injury and at this point the most he's worth is a league minimum prove it deal. When's the last time a QB got the league minimum?
YoloinOhio Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 Bradford's knee issue is very bad and it may be career-ending situation per jay glazer. I highly doubt they make him their long-term QB.
Doc Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 When's the last time a QB got the league minimum? Late round QB's and UDFA's.
BringBackOrton Posted October 15, 2017 Author Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Late round QB's and UDFA's. I mean a veteran FA. Most QB's either get a couple million or don't get signed. Edited October 15, 2017 by jmc12290
Roundybout Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 I mean a veteran FA. Most QB's either get a couple million or don't get signed. How much did we give Orton?
Scott7975 Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) When's the last time a QB got the league minimum? I think you understand the spirit of his post and are arguing semantics. There are some QBs that signed for 2mil or less. There are some that are signed for 1mil or less. Edited October 15, 2017 by Scott7975
Bangarang Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 At this point Id rather take our chances on a rookie. I really wanted us to draft him but Whaley was hell bent on hitching his wagon to a total scrub in EJ.

There are some that are signed for 1mil or less. I hear that, I just don't think its realistic to lump Teddy in with those guys. I think Bridgewater will get more money on the market than say EJ Manuel.
