And he’ll work out. Quote

Unless you have the difference maker at the most important position in sports, it’s gonna be a struggle. There are HOFers who’ve never sniffed a ring because they languished on teams without a QB to get them there. Drafting JA is one thing, but I give Beane more credit for maneuvering from pick 22 to pick 7 in order to get him, especially because he didn’t give up any future first round picks to do so. That took some doing. Expand If you want to be consistently competitive. But you also need to either draft well or make smart FA moves if you want to be a super bowl contender. The Bills are inching closer to consistently competitive than Super Bowl contender as the FA and draft misses pile up. 1 Quote

The Bills are inching closer to consistently competitive than Super Bowl contender as the FA and draft misses pile up. Expand I don’t think I even remotely suggested that drafting well and making smart FA moves aren’t important ingredients for success. What I did suggest is that all the great drafting and FA signings aren’t enough to get you there without the difference maker at QB ( this is when someone invariably mentions Trent Dilfer and a couple other lesser QBs that won SBs). To sum it up, great QBing gets you thru times of poor drafting and FA signings far better than crap QBing gets you thru times of great drafting and FA signings. Quote
