Yeah, I get that. I agree Allen would not be a Day 1 guy. We would need to find a day 1 guy. If we take Allen, I'm not sure what Day 1 guy is left in FA at this point.

If he falls to 12, that would be easier to stomach. But this is a guy who has had holes in his game since HS and did not improve. I do not want to trade up for him. Who are your top 2? I'm not sure people are "down" on Allen (it seems that way, and my comments likely make it seem that way), as they are nervous about allocating a top pick to him when Rosen and Mayfield have proven to be winners at the highest levels against top competition. And if Allen needs top talent on the OL and at WR to succeed, it seems he is better suited to go to a team with all parts in place (Denver, Pittsburgh, etc) than Buffalo. We need a QB who makes those around him better.

Big Ben had a 69.1 completion percentage his Jr. year (before the draft); Allen has 56%. Why was he on a terrible team? Not highly scouted? A franchise QB makes the team around him better. If he needs a "great team," then he needs to be drafted by a team that has better WR's than us. In fact, the Steelers should trade up and make him Ben's backup. exactly. He could be a star, someday, but he cannot start day 1. We need a guy who can. Only two really fit that bill: Rosen and Mayfield. Wouldn't surprise me if Indy perhaps grabbed him.

If we draft him I'll want him to succeed, but this great QB threw a whopping ZERO TD's against Power 5 teams last year. Mike White will be a better NFL QB.

You are spot on. He has terrible accuracy at WYOMING. He has played terribly against Power 5 teams. And anytime someone says, "His big arm would be great in Buffalo" I want to throw something. You know who else has strong arms: Mayfield (gets windy in Oklahoma), Rosen, L. Jackson, and Darnold. Take one of them. I'd take L. Falk or Mike White over J. Allen.

not many people left. McCarron looked good when he played. I'm thinking grab him and either Rosen or Mayfield. Really, the only thing that would make me upset is trading up to draft J. Allen.

fn Browns. What have they ever done for us.....

trade him to Steelers for Bryant!!! (they'd never do it...)

nice. forgot we had him.! I liked him coming out of college. Hopefully he pans out.

I'm thinking this happens in the draft. Although I would like to see 1-2 in FA. Nigel at LB and perhaps a depth OT or Guard/Center. The guy I really like is Chris Hubbard (OT) from the Steelers. Played well last year when a starter when down.

Jets. Now supplanting the Browns for oddest franchise in NFL. Hope this means we get McCarron!

nice. addresses need for secondary depth. I'm thinking the draft will be top QB, then LB, LB, RB, OL, WR in some order.

we must have our eyes on drafting one -2 then. he was solid when healthy.

this has to be a dolphins or pats or jets fan trolling, right?

yuck. likely already on the way to the pats. prob why they let Amendola go. JOrdy. Go somewhere like Buffalo and show you can play with a non HOF QB!!

would love HIlton. The Bears are going to have no cap money left for anyone else.

would love to grab him. And/or Nelson. How about getting McCarron and Eifert!!!

I'd go as high as a 2nd, or a 3rd this year and a conditional pick next year ranging from 5th to 2nd depending on playing and how far we get in the playoffs. And I agree, we still move up to get the franchise QB. PS. Glad to hear your up-voting ability is back!!

hahah. i know. if i didn't have work to do, it would have been hard. Perhaps closing the browser is not part of the process.

I hope your right.

hit mine today also. Just close the browser for an hour or so. Then you'll be good to go. Free agency does this to people!

With Savage and Peterman, you have a Pitt backup QB duo, plus Shady. I'd want Rosen/Mayfield if we go this route though.

No. No. No. No. McCarron. or McCown.

Didn't seem to impact Flutie that much. And Vick played well in Philly. And Seattle can have some nasty weather.

good. now lets get Shu!
