If he fails they'll be gone. what is an excuse? H20 said he would have been available at #12. I said he wouldn't have been due to AZ and MIA being ahead of #12. I'm not sure what I was making an excuse about?
PolishDave Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 So Peterman ends up getting traded for a bag of hammers then?
FLXbillsmafia Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) At least we didn't trade up to #2 or #4 and give away next year's 1st round (likely) top 5 pick. And at least the Dolphins or Patriots didn't end up with Rosen. These are the only positives I see tonight. We drafted Jake Locker, and not only that, unlike when we picked EJ, we actually had the opportunity to draft an elite QB prospect. Edited April 27, 2018 by FLXbillsmafia 1 1

I've been crucified for my love of Allen but I'm not worried, highest ceiling of any QB in the draft. His upside = Ben Roethlisberger His upside is probably higher than that, he also has the most downside. I will talk myself into it. I like his personality and talent. I'm going to rewatch film on him this week.

starrymessenger Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Rosen/Edmunds would have been a first round made in heaven. Troy Aikman said Rosen is the most polished passer he has ever seen and was worthy of #1 overall. He also said that in all his years playing and watching the game he has never seen a QB with Allen's issues succeed. I don't hate Allen but I have a hard time understanding why they would pass on Rosen. Seeing him sitting there looked like a repeat of Aaron Rodgers on draft day. Kudos to the Cards. They ain't so stupid. 3
FunkyBoy1212 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I might be the the only one, but I would not have been able to see that face(Rosen) on a weekly basis. Dude looks like an accountant, not a football player. 1
njbuff Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 The Bills made the pick.............. get behind it. 4

There were questions around each one of the top 4, so lets not go around pretending that Rosen was a guaranteed lock for a HOF career.

Beane has my complete trust, so if they felt he was the guy, I will trust that more than anything. So I am excited...all these guys had risk. But I wouldn't bet my house on any QB in this draft. Darnold made a ton of stupid decisions this year, as much as people were enamored with him, the kid left you gasping every week at something stupid he did. I mean there is no lock...to me, Baker was the safest pick. So, I am behind it even though Allen wasn't my first choice either. But I also didn't invest thousand of hours into researching these kids, so I will trust Beane who so far has 100% earned my trust with his wizardry since becoming the Bills GM. See I think Beane gets way too much benefit of the doubt because we lucked into the playoffs. Besides our secondary and o line, our talent level sucked last year. And getting better in the offseason? Come on man, who cares about what he does in shorts? All I heard was excuses why Allen isn’t better. The Bills aren’t a franchise that is known for developing qb. Rosen is a guy who didn’t need much development. Allen is another guy in the mold of JP and EJ. I defended those guys even though we a ton of similar questions about them. And they got proven right. the thing that sucks is I was so pumped for this night & it was happy perfect. So it’s hard to try to find the positives. I only hope that if Allen becomes a star, we can bump this thread and laugh at it. 1 2
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I wonder if another draft will go by before he sees the field.
