The Mariota one was a head scratcher to me The Mariota one was outside of the 2:00 warning so it's also on Reid for not challenging. You can't challenge when forward progress was stopped but he could have at least challenged the spot. And if in the process of reviewing the spot the replay analyst determines it was a fumble even better

We need to use draft picks to go after someone we can develop into our long term QB. Alex Smith isn’t that so there is no point. To move that far up the draft order is going to be very expensive. You pull those of moves when you are closer to the pile not the other end of the pecking order.

However, we could move up to the 10-15 range which shouldn’t cost us the farm.

Like setting off a BS cloud grenade. Mariotta's forward progress was stopped?? He was standing still!!! got hit and clearly fumbled the ball. but his forward progress was stopped?!!!! what utter idiocy is this!! The NFL has heavily targeted the casual fan over the years. They have been quite successful in doing so, and are lucky to have them. The NFL is too difficult to watch for knowledgeable football fans. It’s become mostly playoffs and Bills games for me.

I don’t think that it would matter what they see in the replay.
GunnerBill Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 I liked Corey Davis coming out. He was my #1 WR. He looks out of his depth.

Anyone who doesn't think Alex Smith would be an upgrade over Taylor is nuts. That said, there are many more options that appeal to me more than Alex Smith. But Smith is a lot better than Taylor. 1

We're probably looking at somewhere around a 3rd for Smith, which still gives us plenty to work with to move up (possibly) and draft a QB. That would give us Smith as a bridge QB while we develop Peterman and rookie; would be a great position to be in going into next season. That said, we do have a number of other holes to fill, which is why I doubt we move up to top 5 in the first round. With as late as the two firsts and 2 seconds will be, I don’t think that they will want to pay the price that will be demanded to move up for any QB that makes it out of the top 10. i also don’t think Smith will leave KC - if people are melting down about possibly moving on from Tyrod, imagine the reaction in KC if they get rid of Smith after he wins this game and maybe another. i think the Bills will sit tight on draft day and will consider a QB who is left when their pick comes. I don’t think that Darnold, Rosen or Mayfield will make it out of the top 10. Beyond him, I would only consider a small trade up for Mason Rudolph. if they stay where they are, maybe take a shot on Lamar Jackson, he isn’t a finished product but has intriguing potential. if not, maybe a shot in the second. if they sit tight, I would consider trading one of the firsts for a second and a first next year when you go all out and finally move up for a QB.

I would love Smith or Cousins. We aren't in a position to get a sure thing at QB in the draft and i kinda this playoff thing.

YoloinOhio Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Mularkey always holds his playbook and looks at it like he’s just forgotten everything it says.
