Expand Those tow choices would be mystifying. MacCarron is an absolute nothing and Bridgewater, as has been pointed out by many, is such a low wattage player that his ceiling is the garden level. Maybe parlor level. There could not be 2 less impressive FA QBs available. 1

brianthomas Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 If the choice is between Bradford, McCarron, Bridgewater or Keenum i'd take Keenum. Reason being is i followed him while he played at Houston & dude lit it up in college & seems to have grown in confidence as the years have gone by. He just seems to me to have the least risk associated with him. No real injury concerns & is a good character guy... shouldnt break the bank either.
billspro Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 McCarron, Bridgewater, and Bradford all make sense as bridge Qbs. Even McCown makes sense, that guy is basically a coach. I just want a good mentor for our 1st round Qb.

brianthomas Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 screw Brock Osweiler... no way is he being thought of coming here. Over the past 3 years he has regressed. At least with keenum his play has gotten better. True you can make the argument that he had a good supporting cast, but you still cant take away from the fact that he's been maturing as a qb. Just look at his stats:

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Why would we want Aj McCaron? he started 7 games 2 seasons ago and average 122 yards a game.... 854 yards total in 7 games , 6 TD, 2 INT , 66 comp %, It's funny when fans rag on a guy like Sam Bradford but love a player like Aj McCarron. 1

ALLEN1QB Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I just find it so hard to believe that they traded away TT without a sure thing. They know something we don't.

Kirby Jackson Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Throwing money at McCarron is not a good plan. Trade up and get your guy. I believe that the Bills know exactly who they want and exactly what the cost will be to get them. 1
ganesh Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 On 3/10/2018 at 4:00 AM, TigerJ said: He's certainly an option. The problem with McCarron is that he lacks a significant body of work if you're signing him to be a starter. Guys like Keenum and Bridgewater have played more as pros, so the Bills might be more comfortable with one of them. Or, they could go the route of a true bridge QB, a guy who is only going to start until a young QB on the roster can get his game up to speed for the NFL, someone like Josh McCown or Derek Anderson. Expand McCarron was the starting QB of the National Champions. I think there is plenty of body of work there for Coaches to evaluate. I would definitely take a flyer on him rather than Keenum who may be a one-year wonder and Bridgewater who may never recover from the gruesome injury. And please NO to Derek Anderson. He is a washed up backup QB who has no ability to be a starting QB, even if he is a bridge QB.

Expand And they are comfortable in that there is more QBs available via FA and the star studded Draft this year than any previous years and they feel any one of them will be better than TT. FA QBs that need a job are : Keenum, Bridgewater, Bradford, Cousins, Glennon, McCarron Draft - Sam, the two Josh's, Baker, and on Possible via Trade - Foles And whatever happened to the whole thing about Green Bay having to make Aaron Rodgers a FA!!!! The market is flooded indeed...even if there are many QB needy teams indeed.
