I'm pretty sure they have figured out who is playing QB. It would be last years first round pick EJ Manual. So now let's make this another thread about Manuel. I think unless things completely blow up, meaning they regress, this staff will get at least another year.

Kill joy

This is now my favorite post of all time.

Randell Johnson FAU not FIU

So did I. I was hoping it would turn into a Chad Rhiengold thing.

I agree, but I don't think there was anyone else willing to come to the Bills. I also think that vets understand bringing a guy along. What game did Kolb get hurt in? I know the mat incident was early in camp, but when did he get the concussion?

The answer is none. Last years plan stated to fall apart when Kolb got hurt and it was downhill from there. Even if Kolb hadn't been injured, last year was going to be a year of assessing things. There are people on this site and in the media, that even before last season labeled Manuel a bust. This group thinks its a bad trade because the pick will be needed for a QB. The Bills organization has decided they are going to see if Manuel is the guy and they are going to do everything to help him. The Bills thought enough of Manuel to take him in the first round. They are not going to give up on him after one season. Helping him is the smart thing to do.

Bill, we didn't need this draft to know you that you know nothing. Just kidding, I don't always agree but I enjoy your posts. What happens with QBs in the draft is always curious. The qualities that make a good QB are so complicated that it seems to make evaluation very difficult.

Thanks

What did the Bills get for 5th rounder to Tampa?

Cyril Richardson guard Baylor?

My wife just said to me, "did you have fun last night", like I'm twelve.

Nice call

Well his last name is Williams.

Bill there are people on this board that have uniformed opinions, you are not one of them. I disagree with you at times, like the Watkins deal, but you know football. I thnk your right about this kid.

Great article, playing it safe has gotten us a lot of 6-10.

Same thought crossed my mind.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000348578/article/trade-predictions-for-2014-nfl-draft-weekend I'd make this trade.

Nice call

Galisano, Jacobs, Trump, Milstein and Bon Jovi are cheap. Too soon?

Trade down, take Martin, then Jordan Mathews and TE in second. LB in the third.

I agree, why give up picks in the deepest draft in years? I just don't think any off the guys being mentioned are worth trading up for, nor are the Bills in the position to do this. They are not one layer away from contending. I think the QBs are going to fall, this opens up the opportunity for trading back. Somebody is going to be in love with one of these QBs. More picks not less. First three rounds get your OT, WR, TE And LB.

If the QBs fall, trade back a few and still get Martin, get WR and TE or LB in second. Somebody is going to want one of those QBs.

I happen to agree with you, but there are plenty of people that had made up their mind on Manuel before he played one down. Only time will tell. Give him good coaching and a good supporting cast and let's see what he can do. I am of the school of thought that it is easier to build a great team around a good QB, than it is to find an elite QB. However you can't build a great team by letting good players walk. With the teams that the Bills have fielded over the past fourteen years how many QBs would have made them champions? Payton, Brady, who else? There are guys that probably would have gotten them to the playoffs, but Super Bowls? Granted I'd take the playoffs right now. There are about a dozen elite guys that have won Super Bowls, about seven or eight mediocre guys, that leaves twenty eight guys that were good to very good but not elite. By elite I mean guys that can win with anybody, they are few and far between and really hard to find.

Johnson won in 2003. I left some guys off this list that I don't think are elite, like Eli Manning and Joe Flacco.
