Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I would be sick to my stomach sending even a 2nd rd pick for Foles but that would be as high as I would go for him. Foles is going to cash in on his playoff and super bowl performance, if the Eagles don't trade him I think he will hold out for more money. If Foles is traded he will want a contract at least comparable to what McCarron will get at around 12 to 16 mil a year.

I don't see it w/ Bridgewater. He did nothing before he got injured. Mediocre passing w/o the ability to run, so if you're looking for a Tyrod upgrade, it's probably a downgrade. The mind has the ability to be forgetful once you haven't seen someone in a while. Hmm, that old girlfriend...I wonder what she's up to. I have a good friend who's a Viking fan. He also doesn't see it in Bridgewater. We had a conversation about our teams QB issues on Friday (before Tyrod was traded). At the time, it appeared we'd be keeping Tyrod for another year. He's not sold on the thought of Cousins being their QB (seems more possible today). The consensus though, Bridgewater not a viable option to start...anywhere.

Benjamin is a piece, but certainly not a top-end #1 WR. That you are reaching for Lawson and Holmes really says it all in terms of the talent level on this team. Holmes had a off year but has hit 10+ sacks multiple times. Lawson is a 1st pick with talent and is only 25 years old. Benjamin if healthy is a number one wideout. Just because Williams and Incognito are old doesn't make them useless or not worthy players. They are cogs on this team and very much why they won 9 games. Your outlook is strange to say the least. I am not claiming a legitimate playoff team, neither was Jacksonville, easy division. But this team had 6 picks in top 3 rounds, Last years draft will be one year older, Lawson and Washington are still learning. The fact is we are a QB away from a 10-11 win season.
ghostwriter Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I want Tom Savage. I think he would come cheap, he would be great as a veteran backup behind Baker Mayfield.
McBean Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Nobody. I want our rookie to come in Day 1 and take control of this team and organization. I’m dying for a face of this franchise. It’s been too damn long.

If Foles is traded he will want a contract at least comparable to what McCarron will get at around 12 to 16 mil a year. I think Foles knows who he is, too many QB's available, large QB class. if he is stubborn or Philly is stubborn he will be their backup or cut. If cut he will be below a few QB's on the high money list. Keenum has better stats. Bradford a better pedigree. Foles fit with draft in place as a starter is maybe two teams. Buffalo may be his safest place if Buffalo wants him given we pick 21st. Miami picks 11th, that guy is playing. I would do it to save using our picks to move up. Draft a QB 22nd or 2nd round. 21st pick I would get Evans and actually 22nd pick I would get Price or the Daniels, top 2 Center/Guard. Groy would be RG and backup. Ducasse sits as backup. Second I would grab QB Rudolph and a DT. Third I would get speed at WR and a CB. If Buffalo doesn't go for Cousin's and blow money they may try to get DE and speed at WR. 20 minutes ago, 707BillsFan said: I don't see it w/ Bridgewater. He did nothing before he got injured.

I was already to bash you till I looked up his stats. Better passer than Tyrod but not as good a run now with a questionable knee. He is a 80 rating QB which in today's passing game is average. he throws more TD's then INT but not better than Taylor. He is a BIG no to me as a backup or starter now. Bills will know this, he isn't worth a look. not sure why I thought he threw for 4000 yards in a season. 17 minutes ago, McBean said: Nobody.

Better have a backup plan, happens rarely not usually sitting at 21st pick. There is no sure 1st pick starter this year. Even Cleveland got their starter just in case from Buffalo. We need to aim higher than Tyrod's stats which says allot. We need a QB that can throw 3500-4000 yards. Only way to compete in the AFC East. 1

greeneblitz Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Any older QB who is smart in the film room but can accept being the 3rd QB on the roster, definitely not Bridgewater and probably not McCown, both would expect reasonable chances to play, IMO this team has to be our 1st round pick's and we should also be developing Peterman as a long term backup.
prissythecat Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 9 minutes ago, USABuffaloFan said: Rodgers sat behind Favre for 3 years, your wrong! Rodgers was never drafted to be the backup in Green Bay. McCarron , on the other hand, was picked to fill the second string role.

Rodgers sat behind Favre as the heir and took over the starting job when Favre retired. Rodgers did not leave via free agency looking for a payday and starting job elsewhere.

richardb1952 Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I think the Bills should consider bringing in Bradford and if his physical is good, give him a 2 - 3 year contract with some incentives if he can play X amount of games. He is the best FA QB out there if healthy. The downside is if he gets injured but that would be true with anyone they bring in. Recent reports say his knee is fine. Even last year, he just needed it cleaned up and by that I mean it wasn't an ACL. He was active during the playoffs and was the backup to Keenum.
