Matt Barkley Back? (Yep! deal not yet known)

[Donuts and Doritos]

Why? I know we're broke. But seriously, why?

[Virgil]

If it isn’t Fitz, I’m good with this.

Any strong armed rookie QBs available in like the 5th round this year? Need to develop a cheap back-up that can at least throw a 10 yard out

Jack Coan from Notre Dame/Wisconsin fits that description.

Just looked him up. I would sign up for that

There has got to be a Fitz or similar that does not care about cash at this point and just wants a ring. 

Fitz wants to be a starter he isn;t coming here. Thank God for that! As he is a starter qb injury jinx. Don;t want that bad  juju on Allen.

Juju signed with KC 😉

I understand things can happen but Josh is the most durable QB in the NFL and hasn't missed a start in over 3 seasons running amok with reckless abandon against opposing defenses. 

 

Insurance is needed but whether it's Barkley or Fitz, it probably won't matter.

Agree....Coan looks like the best value in the 5th range. He made some decent throws.

I get the love for Fitz but come on. 

 

He was out all season last year with a hip injury/surgery and is 39.

 

People were complaining about signing a 32y old von Miller and you want to sign a guy with a walker as your back up qb?

Fitz isn’t a back up mentor, he’s a jinxy voodoo curse. No thanks not now, not ever 

[FLFan]

This would not surprise me.  The Bills are not going to spend significant dollars on a back up QB.  Fitz made $10 mil last year.  Mariotta would be in that same range.  I thought Kyle Allen made some sense but he is gone.  Slim pickings out there with cheap contracts.

Wouldn’t be super shocked to see Jake Fromm back as well. 

Need someone on the PS. But do you suppose Shaq Lawson will beat him up in the shower?

[dje85]

I don't personally feel it will matter who we have as our backup qb as we have enough offensive weapons and a great defense to keep us in and win games. Just rely on a heavy run and run option and let the defense keep us in those games.

Because in a backup QB you want a guy who can come in a game late and win you a game or can start a game or 2 and win for you too. I think Fitz fits the mold, Andy Dalton too.

That is probably it

I wouldn't be surprised if we get someone like Mayfield, Marriotta, gabbert ,Winston, Brissett, Smith, or  or someone else on a prove it deal similar to trubisky.

 

When the music starts to stop the chairs become sparse. 

 

Even Dalton is only 34

All we need in a back up is good film habits and the ability to run the victory formation offense, able to don thick knee pad.. that’s it!

That was dancing fool JuJu. We're talking about terrible JuJu.

[MrEpsYtown]

As much as people want Fitz, I don’t, he has always gone to the highest bigger. Guys like him and Dalton are going to want 5 plus million as experienced backups. 

[stevestojan]

Guy is the biggest Bills cheerleader since the Jills left. I like it.
 

I mean if Josh goes down, we’re absolutely ***** no matter who we have as a backup.
