Which of these Pegula hires would you consider a success?

Tyrod Taylor was going to start over Peyton Manning? Please.

They wanted him as a backup, not to "run their offense".

Whaley wanted Hue Jackson and Schwartz. He might not be a great GM but marketing won out over football guys in the RR hire.

RG3.

Yes, having a private workout with Arians who loves the deep vertical game and their owner tells me Arizona runs to the podium.

Sounds like he only wants to take a QB from a "good class". My guess is he heard that from a talking head and now wants to dismiss every QB in 2017.

If the Bills pass on Trubisky AND Mahomes at 10 it's torches and pitchforks time.

Batting 0 for 6 is not good. Tim Murray's fate will be decided by next year and Mcdermott just started.

They have a TT jersey?

Surefire can't miss QB's come once a decade. If that is the standard you will never get a QB. What HOF players are we passing on at 10 in your mind? I have seen people talking about a WR, TE, LB, and CB. None of which are surefire, can't miss prospects either.

When the QB gurus of the NFL are all giving Mahomes private workouts, including with Arians and the team owner, you better believe there is fire behind the smoke. He can make throws that less than 5 QB's in the NFL can make. Throw in the accuracy, pocket presence, lightning release, ability to throw on the run, and love for football and you don't mess around. If the Bills pass on him they will regret it. Great work.

Ron Rolston, Ted Nolan, Pat Lafontaine, Rex Ryan, Ted Nolan,Dan Bylsma. These are Pegulas hires for their sports teams in Buffalo.

The Seahawks game was a good game for Tyrod. The problem is that many NFL backup or low level starters have an occasional good or great game. You can't say a great QB is bad because of bad game or a mediocre QB is great because of a great game. The whole body of work has to be looked at. When this is done Tyrod wasn't considered good enough by the Bills to be worth picking up the option.

I would take Mahomes or Trubisky at 10 with no hesitation. Yes, if you limit Air Raid to Texas Tech you can say that. But Tedford ran an offense very similar to Air Raid and Aaron Rodgers turned out ok. The Air Raid is just a form of spread offense. College spread QB's are doing fine in the NFL.

Yes.

I had a conversation again with my friend that is a scout yesterday. He couldn't stop talking about Mahomes. Said he could be generational, can't pass on a player like that at QB.

I normally am not superstitious but you might be on to something.

Signing a backup QB is the same as using a 1st round pick on a QB? No. Since the Bills haven't spent many draft picks on QB's where is this great roster?

In other words, the stadium isn't going to be built anytime soon.

I have already said that this is a red flag on McDermott. I want a coach that thinks about more than the next year and the more power McD gets the more shortsighted I expect the Bills to be.

The Browns had Kyle Shanahan in house before the 2014 draft. They asked him to study the QB's and give recommendations. He told them to draft Derek Carr then Jimmy G. The owner listened to a homeless man who told him to take Manziel before the draft.

Are the Bills Tyrod haters for deciding that Tyrod didn't play well enough to get the contract option picked up? They saw that he wasn't good enough. Only Tyrod taking a massive paycut kept him here.

Taylor was pursued as a backup. You can't say Tyrod would have beaten Siemian. Tyrod got to run the Greg Roman offense in Buffalo, an offense that can hide a QB who struggles passing the ball. Don't assume when you take the training wheels off that Tyrod will be fine.
