I bet there are few jobs out there better than a career backup QB....loads of $$ (compared to average working stiffs), Fans typically fawn over you when the team is doing bad, no pressure to win, etc. BUT, I also imagine that for a guy who grew up poor with nothing but being the best quarterback on his mind, A guy who won championships on every team he has ever played on ('cept Cincy), and who TRULY BELIEVES he is the best QB on the field at any given time, a guy like that might have too much pride to spend a career holding a clip board for some young whipper snapper. I don't know how NFL retirement works, but I imagine he'll be ok after this contract...it doesn't take much to live comfortably in 'Bama...and he will likely never have to buy a drink or meal as long as he lives around here

He sits out 2018 and develops 3. AJ plays and plays lights out. 4. Bills trade AJ for high draft pick to QB needy team in 2019 Best. we scenario: Bills win the Super Bowl.

In four games he completed 86 out of 133 passes for a 64.7 completion percentage. He threw for 920 yards in those games. He threw six touchdowns and two interceptions. His quarterback reading was 93.6. So I ask you: In what universe does Taylor ever put up those numbers? This may not be a lot of data. But what is there is impressive.

Doc Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Forget trading up. I say use the picks to improve the team. There is buzz that this draft has around 70 starting quality players, and the Bills have a shot at 5 of them. Use those to address holes (MLB, DL, OL, WR) and take a QB in the 3rd round to compete with AJM and NP.
Prickly Pete Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I'm pretty happy he is here, and hoped he would be the veteran they would sign. But I don't see anything notable about what he said. Just a grab into the Bag of Cliché's, really.

Was half expecting a trainwreck from that one poster's comment but he's really not a bad speaker at all, he's just Southern. He actually seems relatively bright and genuine.

Hurricane Marv Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Alright, he falls apart quite a bit toward the end there haha but he still doesn't come seem like a complete dummy at any point

Bronxbomber21 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Calling it now AJ throws for 4,000 plus and 30 tds once we sign Hurts to go with KB.
hemma Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I wish he had a half dozen more starts, but if he did, he may have required a lot more money. Here's hoping he's a lot more of a QB than Rex's long odds bet.
