Pretty common practice from what I've read. ...probably correct....and I'm sure those doing the hiring are "lily white" themselves (COUGH).......
jr1 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 there were no fluke seasons with Baker. His worst completion percentage was 64.1

VirginiaMike Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 I would be OK with having "The Baker" cook up some magic in Buffalo. I like the fact that he is ultra confident, so much so that he walked on at Oklahoma rather than stick with a scholarship somewhere else. Height can be an issue, but I think most Bill's fans remember Doug Flutie and his success in Buffalo until folks thought he was too short and when to the prototypical Rob Johnson. That didn't work out so well. 1

3rdnlng Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Who wouldn't want to play with a "Baker's Dozen" on offense?

B M doesn't have it for today's NFL.

Brees, Wilson and Rogers proved they could do this in college also, all of the slid in the draft.... I think we will be able to get Mayfield at 12 come the end of April, and it would be a mistake to pass him up.

He's got a great arm, good accuracy, good mobility, picks up the blitz well, and by all accounts is a grest leader, but Baker is a stupid first name. I say pass. What say you? Baker was probably a surname somewhere in his family's ancestory. I've seen that done a lot. As far as height goes does any athletic shoe maker offer platforms?
OldTimer1960 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 53 minutes ago, Dkollidas said: I wouldn’t call it “lazy”. There’s two quarterbacks who have been successful that are at his height. Brees and Wilson. And Wilson’s athletic ability sets him apart from almost every other quarterback in the league right now. Almost every guy that height has issues becoming successful in the NFL. The concern over his height is warranted as there have been few successful NFL QBs af this height (as you stated), but I think that his apparent drive and attitude will allow him to overcome the odds. All of these QBs have some questions- I’d be very happy to have the Bills give him his chance.

Tyrod's friend Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 on height and QB; I think it's relevant that Mayfield is just about a half inch shorter than a 6-1" QB, and while he isn't Russell Wilson fast, he's mobile. I wouldn't hold height against him. anyways, the research here shows it's a pretty individual thing. http://www.cleveland.com/datacentral/index.ssf/2017/02/stats_show_shorter_nfl_quarter.html
billsgpr88 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 according to wikipedia, tyrod taylor is 6' 3/4". Tyrod had problems finding open receivers, but that seemed to be due more to the fact that he could not throw an intermediate pass through a window in the middle of the field. ever. ok maybe not ever but I think i could count on one hand the number of times he did that last year

Then I'll clean it up before my wife comes home. 1
Solomon Grundy Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Did anybody else hear the shot Hasselbeck took at Baker in the Rosen recap? Rosen's receiver ran the wrong route and had a incompletion. Rosen turned and said it was his fault. Baker had the same thing happen to him and he yelled at the receiver. He was basically questioning Baker leadership qualities. 1

Chicken Boo Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Beane isn't drafting an arrogant short guy with maturity issues. It's just not happening.
