bman Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Has any other team expressed an interest in JP? I keep teasing my in-laws in Chicago that he will be there next QB. :-)
cowtippur Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I think he's holding out for when the Arena League comes back. It may be his only option.

bflobarry Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I do not think JP will get a #2 job in the NFL. Here's why: He w/b one play away from having to carry that team. Anyone that has caught his act, and all NFL teams scout everybody, would be certified to put him in the position of maybe playing full time if their starter went down. I think that one play in the JESTS game may have sealed his NFL fate. The stunning lack of awareness and pocket presence... I know he has the arm, and he's generally a very good guy. But between the ears, not so much. Best of luck to him though. They're talking him up down here in Tampa...
billsfreak Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 that toronto game sealed his fate The Jets game didn't help either. I do think he will get a job though, and something tells me he still might end up with the Jets.
keepthefaith Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 The Jets game didn't help either. I do think he will get a job though, and something tells me he still might end up with the Jets. None of his games this year helped his cause, but early FA activity is usually concentrated around the bigger name players. I think JP will sign somewhere probably near or after draft day.
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 It's been an interesting couple of days as far as QB's go. Really the only action is Fitzpatrick, Orlovsky, and Kitna being traded. The 49'ers are romancing Kurt Warner. Where's Leftwich? Where's Kyle Boller, Simms or Grossman?
Shanahan's Horseshoe Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 If he still has the beard, the Taliban would be very interested.
VABills Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I guess it also explains why we never worked out a trade deal for him last year.
/dev/null Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 The Free Agency period just started and JP has never been a free agent before. JP just needs more time.
keepthefaith Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 The Free Agency period just started and JP has never been a free agent before. JP just needs more time. I agree. Jauron needs more time too. 9 years is not enough time to develop a winning formula in the NFL as a head coach.
VABills Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 The Free Agency period just started and JP has never been a free agent before. JP just needs more time. Exactly. He's almost like a rookie since he never really got a legit shot, and he wasn't injury prone since it wasn't his fault he got hurt. Oh and the other reason he's rookie, is becuase he had 3 OC's in 5 years, how can anyone learn under those conditions.

nodnarb Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I'll predict that JP will go to one of the two Northern California teams as a backup. He'll see a few games, fumble a few times, get sacked while he panics upon seeing his primary read covered, and then talk about his performance afterward as if it was really good but not quite good enough.

He'll see a few games, fumble a few times, get sacked while he panics upon seeing his primary read covered, and then talk about his performance afterward as if it was really good but not quite good enough. If only the Bills had a different quarterback. THAT would have made the difference. Because every other part of the organization has been absolutely stellar up to this point.

BigDaddy12 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Fitzgerald has been known to fumble a few balls. He's getting a shot as a number 2 QB. Yeah even if it is a minor league team
