It’s not like he’s a rookie and you traded 2nd round pick for him , starting Fitz week one just doesn’t make any sense ( to me ) He lost that competition outright 1

The truth is that if Miami's front office has anybody in it with football brains, they will have every opportunity to be great in 2 or 3 years. I know that this is a HUGE IF indeed, but that team is loaded with great draft picks for at least 2 years. The good news is that we should be kicking their ass for at least 2 years. GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1

The Bills, when they "tanked" traded a starting corner and starting WR for 2 draft picks and a starting corner and WR. Build for now and the future. Its why players would still buy into the process McBeane is installing here. Flores has no chance to win back over this team and he will have nothing but an 0-16 HC record to show for it

Sam FarmerVerified account @LATimesfarmer Follow Follow @LATimesfarmer More Josh Rosen on being drafted 10th: “There were nine mistakes ahead of me.” 7:45 PM - 26 Apr 2018 Somehow I don't think Rosen thought things would work out this way. Found this on his Draft Profile: https://www.nfl.com/prospects/josh-rosen?id=3219524f-5335-7433-3207-a02a4e884405 "He wasn't the guy everyone rallied around in college and you don't have to dig around for too long to find people who said he was hard to coach. He's definitely talented. Nobody questions that. But he's going to have to get grown men to buy into him as their leader. That is not a given." -- NFL Executive I always questioned his HEART. It appears he is going to need more than that if he wants to stay in the league going forward and luck in the league has escaped him so far. Good post. Imo it is extremely hard for rich kids like Rosen to compete in the NFL. Manziel was a great example although he had other issues. Look at the Luck situation. I don't think it is about race either, just money. Who on earth would want to take the beatings that these men take if you already have a few million in your pocket? I expect to see more and more early surprise retirements. The game is just that brutal. Edited September 20, 2019 by Bill from NYC 1

Flores has no chance to win back over this team and he will have nothing but an 0-16 HC record to show for it Nowhere did I say that it was necessarily the correct move. That said, someone posted a list of their upcoming draft picks and it was pretty amazing. This horrible team will probably pick 1st in 2020 and have even more 1st round picks. Their situation is also very good in 2021. It would be almost impossible not to find a considerable amount of talent. Look I saw the Bills turn 5 early picks into 4 not so wonderful players in 2006. Still, this is a rarity and the Phins will have WAY more than Levy/Jauron managed to squander. Here's to hoping that the Dolphins screw the whole thing up! 2

Sorry wasn't implying you thought it was a smart move. Just expressing my opinion on how stupid tanking in the NFL is. I am quite sure they will screw this up 1

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 League officials are reportedly investigating claims regarding ‘Bountygate II’, where GMs of nine NFL franchises are allegedly offering cash payments to Dallas Cowboy defensive unit players to ‘kill the head who dissed us’.

Just Joshin' Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 What is the over/under on games Rosen will survive behind that OL. Fitz is a survivor who knows how to minimize the big hits. Rosen looks frail to me or at least next to the right Josh. 1

If JR makes it through this sh-t show and becomes a functioning NFL QB it will truly be a Miracle. ...not to worry...he's already called Mom for advice.....

Also he has enough friends on other teams for them to not blast him when not needed. I could see Josh being type "taught a lesson".

He actually lost an open QB competition to Ryan Fitzpatrick. Veterans often will beat rookies (or 2nd year players) due to experience but coaches should be looking at full season not just training camp competitions. Besides I'd rather Wrong Josh take licks not Ryan.
