#1 2nd year HC and GM are not going to gamble their tenure in Buffalo to a journeyman quarterback in Ryan Fitzpatrick
#2 The Bills have stated they would like to get a QB in the draft and Nix stated in an interview on 103.3 The Edge that the QB's after Gabbert and Newton aren't much better than Fitz (paraphrasing). So it's QB at #3 or no QB at all this draft.
#3 The Bills have stated over and over that if a franchise QB is there they have to take him. In the same interview today on 103.3 Nix said he believes Newton and Gabbert have an above average chance of being a franchise QB.
#4 Ralph Wilson stated on multiple occasions last season that the Bills need to find a QB. I'm sure Nix was listening.
#5 It's a QB driven league and we don't have one. Who are we kidding if we really believe Fitz is going to take us to the playoffs vs. Brady, Manning, Rivers, etc.
All signs point to Blaine Gabbert. Newton is going #1. Dareus will go to Denver. Miller is out... we have Moats who had 3 sacks in 4 games last year and showed he has the ability to play. Green will be a great player but WR is the deepest position on the team. And last time i checked...the top WR's in the league didn't get very far in the playoffs. They are nice to have but not vital to a franchise's success. Peterson would be a luxury pick and won't help us stop the run or rush the passer... and you don't take CB's that high in the draft for a reason. You don't rebuild franchise's around them.
