SouthNYfan Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 30 minutes ago, White Linen said: I totally disagree. Tyrod was talked about as being the next level down to the top QB's coming out that year. The debacle on his pro day, IMO, effected him terribly. I had never seen him regarded as anything other than a late round project from any source prior to his draft. If I'm wrong so be it, but I don't remember it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Why we bro'n? If I was Lamar Jackson I would dismiss anyone asking me to play WR as well. I find that a lot more likely than Peter Schrager making something up like that. You can be sure he didn't make that up, everyone knows the issues that arise when mobile quarterbacks are debated and Schrager is a good decent man who drives in the middle lane. He wouldn't bait anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the amount of QB needy teams he'd be in the top 10 with Mayfield and Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assure you that skin color has nothing to do with my comparisons, but keep pushing that button. It's a really good look. If it did, can you assure us that you'd assure us it did?

John from Riverside Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 6 hours ago, Gugny said: Way to bring race into it. Sweet. I'll point out that Brady, Mannings, Rivers, Marino, Kelly, Bledsoe and Favre are/were, indeed, similar in that they relied heavily on passing the ball and passing it well. Secondly, Tyrod and Lamar - in my opinion - are similar in that neither is an accurate passer and both tend to run .. a lot. If you want to throw skin color in there ... oops ... you already did .... well, that's on you, bro. Your still stereo typing sir....not necessarily race (I didnt really think that of you initially anyway) but more the "style" of play Take a look at the passing yards and the passing TDs from Jackson in college in that short amount of time......they are both athletic but im not sure it goes past that. 6 hours ago, Chicken Boo said: The tendencies of this regime. Jackson's limitations as a passer are evident and if I can see them, I know damn well Beane and McDermott can. They yanked Tyrod for 5th round rookie in an attempt to move on from that style of QB play. They aren't going to jump out of the frying pan and into the fire. I am sure of it. Maybe they dont see Lamar's limitations as a passer as huge as you do......I certainly dont.....he is not natural under center but has improved every year....he brings things to the table that the others DONT bring.....all the while bein underrated as a passer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I have to trust Bills FO on the QBs in the draft this year. Bills are not what they used to be. I feel it is Okay you allow a bit of faith in which QB and when. My opinion though, is to remain close to the picks as they naturally fall. If they need to move up a bit? I hope they regain some picks further down the line. If it's Lamar ? Cool. If It's Rosen cool. But not at #3 or even #5. But I will agree with most here, they need to grab one in the first if it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#34fan Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 (edited) in the 2012 draft, during the run on QB's, NE had the 21st, and 25th pick.. They took Chandler Jones, and Dont'a Hightower respectively.. That alone Set them up on D for years to come... While our circumstances aren't the same QB-wise, I think the depth at positions like DT DE and LB is comparable. There is GOOD depth there... Da'ron Payne, and Rashaan Evans could be a move that makes us right on D, at least. Edited March 3, 2018 by #34fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baskingridgebillsfan Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I have zero inside info and I rarely make predictions but I am making one now they are picking Jackson at 21 if he is available. the cost to move up is going to scare them away besides if Denver and the Jets both lose out on cousins they can easily moveup and ensure they get one of the first three. Much to my dismay they keep Taylor and Draft Jackson. Jackson blows taylor away in camp by simply throwing the ball downfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
