I think people gonna be shocked how little we paid to get him.  My guess is $1.5m base plus incentives.   


That would be great.  All I can think about though is Case Keenum being paid $6m a year by the Browns...

That's an eyebrow raiser. 

 

I mean, is he an appreciable upgrade from Matt Barkley? Maybe higher upside, but Trubs has been baaaaad.

You’re kidding right?

Our 2 strongest positions heading into FA were QB and WR.  So, of course, that's where our 2 biggest acquisitions are.

 

Why not?  I like that Trubisky has a similar style to Allen, so the offense shouldn't have to change if he has to come in for any reason.

 

I am well past questioning Beane.  Great move.

Beane already tweeted they only expect him here for a year as a rest for him.  Will be trade capital.  Fromm may be long term backup plan.  

I was just responding to the OP trying to suggest a QB controversy.  Certainly Mitch is an upgrade at backup QB for this year.  Beyond that...you never know.

Deshawan Watson and Russ Wilson are proving out how stupid it is to pay QBs big money.

 

The league is changing and this will be Josh Allen's last year in Buffalo.

My first response was thinking that the Bills had lost their collective minds.  But on further review this was a solid signing.

 

There is no QB controversy.  This is all about upgrading the back-up position in the event Allen goes down.  I you consider how the Bills offense relies on Allen's mobility then Trubisky is a clear upgrade over Barkley.  Sometimes it's really that simple.

 

 

The other thing to keep in mind is with his contract ending after a single year when the cap increases .. he will likely leave for greener pastures next year which very likely will get a nice compensatory pick in 2 years.

I honestly would rather have Matt who’s been in the offense for 2 years and knows the players.  
 

I don’t hate it. I just don’t get it 

The brass always talk about competition at all levels. I think it is clear that Mitch is at least marginally better than Barkley and if God forbid we lose Josh for a few games, I think Mitch has a far better chance of running a Josh Allen offense as opposed to Barkley. Good guy, but weak arm and no legs and not that imposing.

I love that we’re going Fromm 😁 Barkley to Trubisky as our backup! I remember the days I would have been excited to get Trubisky as our starter. Go Bills!!

A year from now maybe.

Exactly according from Beanes tweets. Here ti reset his career for a year an then move on to starting job elsewhere. Good move from that point.  Good one year insurance policy.  Will be tough in short term on josh / Barkley but Josh is too focused to let this have any significant long term impact.
