Astrobot Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Brodie Croyle – QB - Alabama Measured in at 6'2 1/3, 205. He has met with the Chiefs, Jets, Bills, Broncos and Dolphins. Source This is the only mention of the Bills interviewing anyone on 3 draft sites I checked. Croyle would be a RD#3 pick, the 6th-rated QB, and ranked about #78 in Draft Showcase's Top 100. Astro
30dive Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 The QB the Bills ought to really look at is the 2005 Payton Award winner (the top 1-AA player), from Eastern Washington University, Erik Meyer.

No biggie...just thought I'd make the adjustment.
30dive Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 You are correct......But in so that the "best" player is almost always from the "O" he ranks right up there....but alas what does it all mean its still 1-AA. Nobody from 1-AA ever became anything....Oh thats right the guy this award is named after ended up being an ok player.

BillsFanForever19 Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Wow! I think that's pretty cool. I love Brodie Croyle. He has a bionic arm and is VERY accurate. His only knock has been he's thin as a rail and has about as much muscle as Napolean Dynamite. But I never understood why this was such a problem. You'd think that an NFL Strength & Conditioning coach could fix that in a few months.
Brandon Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I wouldn't complain if the Bills were to select Croyle in the draft, but the list of his past injuries is extensive and includes major injuries to both knees.
The Senator Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Dennis Williams did a story on Brodie Croyle on today's 6 o'clock news (Channel 4) - will probably show it again at 11. Don't know anything about him as a player, but he seems intelligent, well-spoken, and could probably give JP some grooming tips. OTOH, the Bills probably have more pressing needs than QB in the first 3 rounds, IMO. BTW - they also had a brief interview with Harry Henderson (Moulds' agent) - nothing new there - typical agent-speak..."well if the Bills want to pay him, he'll probably be back, if they don't, well I'm not so sure, blah blah blah...")
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I'm hoping they look at Charlie Whitehurst, but I like croyle as well.

Astro 611007[/snapback] Brody Croyle reminds me of Rob Johnson in terms of his body-type. He also has a history of injury at Alabama. I think they may actually be twins. (OK, they aren't really twins. But why take another stick figure QB with a history of going gimpy?)
BillsGuyInMalta Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I like Croyle as a 2nd day pick...wouldnt mind him at all.
Peter Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 I'm hoping they look at Charlie Whitehurst, but I like croyle as well. 611094[/snapback] Totally agree.
Brandon Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 The QB I'd like to see the Bills consider selecting is Tarvaris Jackson of Alabama State. I saw him play a little bit at Arkansas before he transferred. He's not the most well known QB prospect in this draft by any means, but he is one of the most talented. He'll be picked in the last three rounds and will be an excellent project for some team.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 BTW - they also had a brief interview with Harry Henderson (Moulds' agent) - nothing new there - typical agent-speak..."well if the Bills want to pay him, he'll probably be back, if they don't, well I'm not so sure, blah blah blah...") I'd say $4.262M in salary for the year is "paying him" plenty.
Lofton80 Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Coyle looked good in the skills competition. Tom Brady was built like that as well and he added 25 lbs after college. Coyle is worth a shot.
