Joe Banyard seems like the most realistic option but DeAngelo Williams be nice, he does have Carolina ties which might help.

I was still in college and ran a website on angelfire.com called Flutie Haters.

And this board is littered with threads on QBs for next year and idiots complaining about Tyrod.
What happened to this place? There have been a couple of good posters come over from BBMB but it seems as they've been vastly outnumbered by the mouth-breathing table jumpers. That can't be all of it though.
I think the Bills have finally broken some of you when I read that you'd rather miss the playoffs than get knocked out in the first round if Tyrod is the QB.
We have a realistic shot at the postseason for the first time in forever and there is zero buzz around here. What's the deal?
The truth is yes, it's nice to make the playoffs but we've also seen enough bad football over the years we know when the team is good and not so good. I think we're trending upward but I'm in the camp that feels Tyrod isn't and will never be good enough at QB.

Rosen, Darnold or Rudolph are my pecking order. The rest aren't worth a 1st Round pick.

I'll take either a grinder with a high pick on a DT, or a star, and a draft pick for edge rusher. I think if we get another great DT, Williams stays for a hopeful SB run.
Only if at a reduced salary and role would I want Kyle back as he's never been a run stuffing DT.

Yeah it happens against a good D.
I also recall 2 TDS (passes) that we could’ve should’ve had.
Tyrod has a lot of limitations. But it’s clear he can also take you to the Playoffs if the rest of the team is doing it’s job.
My my guess is he will be a starter somewhere next year.
Only one of those would have counted and took away 3 of our points so that would have been 16 points for the offense which to me not good enough.

Remember how mediocre Alex Smith was...until he had his best season in 11 years and now everyone thinks we should nab him?
Remember how crap Keenum was for his entire career - and now everyone wants him?
remember how pathetic Goff was in year 1...and now everyone is wishing we had him? What percentage of Bills fans would ‘allow’ Goff to start Year 2 after what he did in his rookie season?
Tyrod is a good player. I don’t think he will ever be a league dominator but he is certainly good enough to win games so long as the rest of the team shows up.
The rest of the team showed up in the first half and Tyrod was only able to get us 9 points in the 1st half and then another 3 in his first drive in the second half and nothing afterwards, say what you want but little teams can win scoring 12 points a game especially when playing the Patriots.

With the McBeane connection I'd think Star Lotulelei be tops on our list.

Mason Rudolph.

isn't foles on a 1 yr. deal? i thought we should have gone after him before he went to kc. if he hits the market and is looking like a 18 to 20 mil. i think we should get him here and lock him up. i went on about this a long time ago when everyone said he was garbage and a one year wonder....well he may just win the sb...how bout dat?
Actually he signed a five year deal but with way it's structured it's more like two years. I admit I was pounding the Foles bandwagon last off season as our bridge QB.https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2017/03/17/nick-foles-eagles-contract-void

I really feel bad for Cleveland fans. The fact they have had to endure such utter crap offered up by their football team for years is sad. Fisher will just be salt in the wound. Come to think of it , when Brady and BB are gone I hope NE becomes Cleveland and has the exact same experience. They are due.
and ironically if the Browns never moved to Baltimore BB might have been the HC for Cleveland since he got canned one week after Modell said he was moving the team.

I doubt this VERY seriously. If Alex gets cut, a bidding war will ensue. There are a lot of QB needy teams out there besides us. I'd offer them the 1 we got from them last year.
I don't see it as the only other team I think rush to get him be the Jaguars but they've already committed to Bortles for 2018 and can't see them paying another QB significant money.

Smith = TT....why do people want this?????????????????
Cuz if Smith gets cut he'll cost a whole lot less than it be to retain TT.

Not yet but rumor is Dorsey will make the happen ...
another rumor is that he will trade Hue to the Bengals. Yes, trade. I know.
Maybe he'll trade Hue and picks for AJ McCarron leaving the Bills a chance to trade up for Rosen.
17 minutes ago, Manther said:I heard Fisher was thinking Browns and Bears. Poor Browns and Bears. Reminds me of the Rex hire. The game has passed him by.
The difference between Rex and Fisher (IMO) is Rex didn't care anymore. But, they both have not adapted to the evolution of football.
And both worked under Buddy Ryan (Jeff was on those mid 80s Bears teams as a player) hmmmm

I heard that the Bungles are interested in Hue.
The master plan was for Hue to take over when Marvin retired yet the Browns hired before the Bengals could.

If Darnold came out, id consider moving back from 1 and moving back from 5 as well. They could have like 4x 1sts, 4x 2nds, and a bounty of picks next year and could still take Mayfield, Lamar Jackson, Rudolph, Josh Allen. Thats just me though.
Is Myles Garrett any good?
He hasn't had a sack since November 26, yet his tackling stats are solid. Yet Jibril Peppers has really struggled for them. While the Brown's have the picks and cap room to improve time.will tell if they do yet not sure they will as their own seems to be quick to change management.

This is what happened last season. He played a couple of decent games at the end of the year and everyone was on the Tyrod train. "Draft defense and he will get us into the playoffs", "the light has come on", "he isn't the problem".
The truth us Tyrod is still what he was year one. His season by season performances actually deviate very little. He will have spells where he plays good football (he particularly seems to enjoy playing the Dolphins for some reason) and games where he really struggles to move the offense. And when you strip the context and the other factors away that is still the truth you are left with. He is a serviceable, capable NFL starting Quarterback. What he isn't is a guy who will ever give you a chance to be a contender. Could he have that one year where it all clicks with a good supporting cast - "the Keenum effect" - yes he could. But you have to play the percentages and drafting around him to hope for the lightening in a bottle type season is not a sensible approach. Even despite the difficulty in finding a true franchise QB the odds of that are greater than the lightening in a bottle.
Tyrod was not THE problem in 2015 or 2016..... he hasn't been THE problem in 2017 either. But his play does not raise the level of those around him and when that is what you are saying about your Quarterback it is A problem.
I have no problem at all with keeping Tyrod for the final year of his deal in 2018 as the bridge / backup to your rookie Quarterback. I don't think either side has much of an appetite for that to happen though. Tyrod probably feels like he has played well enough to have the opportunity to start for a different team in 2018 who don't see him as a sitting duck.... but the teams rumoured to be interested last summer were the teams we all knew were going to be bad - Cleveland, Chicago, Denver, New York Jets..... I suspect the market for him looks similar this offseason too. That might still be preferable to Tyrod than being here as the sitting duck for a staff, fanbase and organisation that doesn't truly believe in him in 2018.
He isn't a problem nor is he the solution, hence we need a better QB. I'd love if we could some how land Rosen but that's highly unlikely unless Cleveland again passes on a QB.

I think Tyrod is gone after this year. Tyrod is a great athlete, but McDermott and Dennison want a better passer who primarily works out of the pocket, anticipates route timing, throws with anticipation, and reads opposing defenses, which is not Tyrod's strength.
You mean a guy who can play QB?

Beth Mowins was solid, really enjoyed the accuracy of her call.
Except when she called Tyrod McCoy.

I think Tyrod is released after this season. No team would want to take his remaining salary and bonus structure.
The Browns would but it cost the Bills a draft pick or maybe not since they ditched the money ball GM.

My opinion is go after Case Keenum because he'd be much cheaper than Cousins and probably produce about the same. Then draft one of the remaining QBs with a second round pick.
Keenum also has a history with Dennison if we keep has OC, as they worked together in Houston. That said I trade up to the top 2 and hope Rosen falls and "settle" for Darnold.

Who out there has a half decent QB on their practice squad? Or do we toss a 7th to someone to rent a backup? Anyone familiar with our system?
Josh Woodrum is on the Ravens' practice squad.
So what happens if TT plays well against the jags and we win?

Management should only evaluate TT performance this season and post season to evaluate his long term status with the team. He's a great game manager but I (like others here) feel he needs to be upgraded.
