  1.  

    I am so torn on this kid. I have been signing his praises for years, but I am starting to wonder. I still think he has the talent to be a franchise NFL QB. But he is getting SMOKED. I mean when this happens on a consistent basis: http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2015/9/5/9267073/temple-penn-state-sackhow are you supposed to be able to judge the QB? He got sacked 10 times vs temple. Maybe 2 of them were his fault. But he is playing so flustered because of the OL, that its hard to determine whether or not he could put it all together if he was playing behind a semi-competent line.

     

    His reads seem off. He is rushing throws, the running game has been abysmal. How much of that is him, and how much of that is systematic...I dont know. And I have no idea what is going on in his head after enduring this type of awful situation for the last 14 games. Thats probably my biggest concern. When he gets to the next level, can he put that all behind him, or is he eternally scarred by being sacked 52 times in the last 15 games (Those are Drew Bledsoe 2002 numbers!)

     

    Me, personally, if I am whaley, I look at him at the end of the first round, and if he is there in the second I grab him in an instant (assuming the Tyrod experiment goes as I think it will). But there is a lot of football left.

     

    My god. http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2015/9/5/9267073/temple-penn-state-sack. That is just pathetic!

     

    I agree at this point I dont see him as a 1st rounder anymore, which is potentially great news for someone.

     

    I started a tread about this on the college football forum, Hack needs to be in a pro style offense not this spread crap

  2. I really want C Cook but will be happy with C Jones. Either way, we will need to trade up.

     

     

    What ever it takes.

     

     

    Hopefully Washington drafts Jones.

    For a longer term crystal ball, with the Bills on the upswing, 2016 and 2017 won't be the years to draft a QB given they will be picking at 32. Hopefully, they will have an off year after the Super Bowl wins, then be in position to select J. Rosen of UCLA in 2018....

     

     

    I'd take that too, just put a few key members on IR and we can tank for Rosen (if he is still good by then)

    @NFL_CFB: AFC college scouting director: #Spartans' Connor Cook "not a franchise-type quarterback." http://t.co/5FG2eud1c1http://t.co/2Q59xIqur7

     

    "He has excellent height, weight, he's athletic with good arm strength," the director told Breer. "But he struggles to read defenses and his football instincts are average. He has NFL starting ability, but he's not a franchise-type quarterback."

     

    :lol::lol: :lol: yeah that's why he can go through his progressions and comes up big on third down, probably the same guy who thought Tannehill "lacked instincts". Keep talking him down buddy it will be better for us.

    No Connor Cook in 1st rd. Barbarian is gonna have to change his signature

     

    I hope he drops like Aaron Rodgers did and then we can snatch him up and have our own Aaron Rodgers

    i think he looks good tonight. I don't know why he wouldn't be a franchise type QB like that FO executive said. But what do I know. I think the knock on him is whether he has NFL arm strength. The pro style offense he runs is a big time plus though. He has great touch on his throws IMO. THIS

     

    He has a NFL arm, scouts are delusional

  3. Man shot himself in the RV lot.

     

    Guys, let's be smart. Be responsible. Have fun

     

    accident? Suicide? is he dead?

    So sad.

     

    I've been very open in the past about dealing with my own depression and anxiety. To anyone struggling please know this.

     

     

    Its gets better. Dont give up and know that you matter to someone.

     

    been there :thumbsup:

  4. i went to the game and had a great time despite the play of the offense and both QBs. They were so sloppy - penalties, etc. I know they only had like 2 days to get ready but they just couldn't get anything going offensively. At least the Silver Bullets came to play!

     

    Silver Bullets?

     

    What's up with the QBs?

    I listen to WGR550 and ESPN via internet radio (I live 5 hours from Buffalo so it keeps me in touch with local sports in WNY). They usually have this tech talk commercial from Larry Magid (CBS Radio) and I find his voice to be smooth, soothing and inviting. There's little doubt how he got his radio gig.
