This does not apply to QBs. The Bills have spent 3 1st round picks, 1 2nd round pick and 1 3rd round pick trying to find a franchise QB since Kelly left (One for RJ, One for Bledsoe, One for JP, the 2nd for Todd Collins and the 3rd for Trent).
No offense, but I think CHicago made out on this deal, Cutler is the real deal, a true franchise QB.
