no need to be nasty.

I think that if he can stay healthy, Eifert would be the steal of free agency.

Or Aaron Maybin - ugh!

I agree. The one guy I would go after is Eifert. Lots of injuries, but one of the best when healthy.

They don't have a better QB. Perhaps Allen will become a better QB, but as a rookie, he was definitely not better than TT.

you mean like Holmes & Benjamin.

Did he go to St. Francis with David Caldwell from Jax ?

I've said it before, it might sound a little silly but they could lessen the yellow flags by a couple a game. Just mandate that all Guards & Tackles must wear gloves similar to boxing gloves. This won't stop all OL holding but will at least get rid of the obvious grab & hold penalties.

Centers aren't valued highly in the draft. We could pick up a top 3 center in the 2nd round - top 5 probably in the 3rd round.

My favorite play call was the 3rd & 26 when we threw it a ton. I'm getting tired of OC's calling runs in that situation. Ya might get a penalty. Ya never know.

Yeah, his 40 time wasn't anything to write home about. But, sometimes instinct & anticipation can make up for a 10th of a second.

Winston is done in TB.

Hard to believe I'm at #1. I guess that even no nothings like me can get lucky for a while. Good luck, everyone.

A top 3 pick is an asset that can be used or sold to the highest bidder.

I agree. However, I fear from watching college tape & live action with the Bills that if he is "the guy" he will be an average to good "guy" rather than a good to very good "guy". We shall see.

If I were a WR free agent, I would not sign with the Bills given the uncertainty of their QB situation. They will probably have to upgrade through the draft.

You know, Sleeby, Just because some of us disagree with you on what the future looks like for Josh, doesn't make us "haters", to use your word. I hope you are right & I am wrong.

Amari is bordering on being a bust. Why would anyone pay $13M for that ?

I hear this so much about Allen - he has so much talent but it is raw. Besides a strong arm, what exactly is his talent. So, he can throw a football real far - so what. His inaccuracy is astounding & that has nothing to do with being raw. Imo, he will cost the Bills the better part of 2-3 seasons before they eventually give up on him. I'm hoping but.......................

If Beane is worth his salt, KB will be gone in the next few weeks. Btw, the pick 6 was obviously the fault of NP, but did anyone notice the atrocious, lazy route run by KB. He is not a QB's friend.

Yes he is - way better and 5 years from now will still be way better.

You're being extremely nice in your evaluation. Except for his running & athleticism, he simply has not produced. Will that change in time ? Who knows. Personally, I doubt it. If we don't look for a QB in the next draft, it looks like we will be in the market shortly thereafter. His biggest attribute - his strong arm - means squat. His long throws are a zip code away from the receiver. This is what you get when you value size & arm strength over accuracy and the ability to assess the field in 2-3 seconds. We shall see.

RP was sounding very elitist in his remarks.

Wow. Hope you are being sarcastic.

I agree. Josh may very well turn into a decent QB, but imo he will never be very good or great. He has no touch on his throws. His inaccuracy is mind boggling. He is just another example of talent evaluators always looking for 6' 4", rifle arm, & forgetting about the most important things like accuracy & the ability to decipher what is going on in 2 1/2 seconds. Of course there are lots of us on this board who will indulge in wishful hoping because he is a 1st round draft pick. I'm sure we will see some improvement over time, but the inaccuracy is extremely telling except for those evaluators who are always looking for the wrong things. The Bills aren't going anywhere, so I don't mind the Josh experiment, but it doesn't look good when he is compared to the other QBs in his draft. Time will tell but I have a bad feeling that we are spinning our wheels.
