  1. He was worth a shot, they just picked the wrong year to have to draft a QB.

     

    The Bills have drafted how many QBs in the 1st round in their history? Seems like there is an argument to be made that they were doing more than taking a shot. Although some arguments have it that Kevin Kontinuous Konkussion Kolb was The Man.

     

    It was a bad year to draft a QB. But some would argue that doesn't excuse a lack of foresight, or painting themselves into a corner with Fitzpatrick, and failing to develop depth at the position from day one when Chan Gailey walked through the door.

  2. Actually I see the Jones pick as solidifying EJ's presence as #2 for 2016. Unless a vet QB is acquired that comes in and pushes EJ off that's the QB roster. I'm a Buckeye alum and watch pretty much every OSU game (stomps of very low level competition sometimes excepted). Jones was a good pick and has a ton of raw talent, but he's years (plural) away from anyone even considering putting him on the field in a meaningful NFL game. No way do I consider him a #2 in 2016.

     

    I agree with the last line though and I think that point is going to be right away - especially where WR and OL are concerned.

     

    Multiple years seems to be a common take.

     

    Well, there is a chance CJ won't get years. TT didn't get his extension. It would be a surprise if EJM received or wanted a 2nd contract from Buffalo. So, there is this chance the Bills will get Broncoed at QB. That would leave them with a long-term project, a blank slate, a big lump of clay, as their option (singular) perhaps.

     

    If one looks at this pick under that scenario, it does raise some strategic questions.
