If AJ is such a good prospect he should have been able to challenge Andy Dalton as the Bengals' starter. He remains AJ Meh-Carron IMO. Perhaps in ways he did challenge A Dalton eh, I mean we never really know what goes on in the minds of the coaches and players until they make the switch. Did you think McD would pull Taylor for Peterman?

We all know that Hue liked AJ but why do people assume that guys like AJ and Keenum are aspiring to sign short, cheap contacts early in FA and commit to being bridge QB's? It's MORE than safe to assume they've had discussions with AJ's agent and he was looking for a lot more commitment than they were willing to give when they intend to draft a QB early and hopefully make that guy the face of their franchise. Tell me what I'm missing here........love to hear it.

Juice_32 Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I can't believe we got a 3rd for TT. Now Beane can carry out his ultimate plan and draft 6 QBs in the first 65 picks.

Colossal Failure! While the outcome may not have been to our likings it helped Buffalo get a better evaluation on the QB position/Peterman in my humble opinion.

Now THAT is the big news that everyone should be excited about Exactly! Now we will see if it’s in FA or if we trade up and get one of the top 4 QBs in the draft. 1

Seems like your answer is you'd just expect some stud QB to come in and agree to be a bridge for your woebegone franchise. It's a bridge QB situation. If they sign McCarron they are on the hook for $50M-$75M when they have NO INTENTION OF GIVING HIM THE KEYS LONG TERM. If he plays poorly you are screwed and if he plays just decent ball.........you have a QB controversy. Look at the players the Bills usually get with a third round pick............Preston Brown........John Miller........Adolphus Washington...........those are the HITS.......and they are JAGS.........it's a small price to pay for a capable bridge season from a QB if you think you are drafting the next great young QB. 2

KingBoots8 Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I’m excited to see where the Bills go from here- they obviously have some sort of plan in mind. Id prefer to find “our guy” to stick around for 15+ years, so whatever it takes to get there is fine by me. Would it be nice to get a vet QB and keep as many picks as possible? Sure, if it makes sense. As it stands, we have the resources to get whoever we deem worthy... it’s up to McDermott and Beane to get this right. ...and with that, I’d like to thank #5 for being a class act and doing his thing. He helped end the drought and put us into a position to get a potential long term answer for our position. Thank you Tyrod. 1

I'm not saying the trade makes zero sense for the Browns organization because I think players will rally behind Taylor, Myself personally though BAD I feel like Buffalo has gotten a good gauge on Taylors ceiling in the passing department. A J McCarron's ceiling on the other hand has not been determined at the pro level. So as a Brown or Bill fan my preference is to move forward with a QB that might become franchise be it draft or through FA. If that makes any sense and with all due respect sir, and while the 3rd round pick in and of itself doesn't always get the return you would want, the high round pick could be that extra bargaining power we need to get our guy...

billspro Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I have never been more excited for an offseason. I think the writing is on the wall now, we are trading up for a QB. I hope it is Darnold,
Prickly Pete Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 How likely would another trade with the Browns to move up be? I would think if the Browns were going to trade one of the 1st rounder's to the Bills, Taylor would have been involved directly in that trade. Why come back later? 1
