    Interesting highlight film.  He's putting his whole body into his throws but his feet always seem to be in the right place.  Look at that throw at 4:27.  He knows he's about to get clobbered and he stands in and delivers.  And he's got some wheels.  One thing stood out to me - his WR are almost casual about catching the ball, wouldn't you say?  They are very confident that ball will show up where and when they expect it to.  Hold their hands out and plink! catch.

     

    Good initiative on the kid, too, working himself into PSU's pro day.  Interesting guy.

     

    Interesting throwing motion.  Reminds me of Philip Rivers with that torquing of his upper body when he throws.  Gotta keep his feet planted though, almost looks like a pitcher more than a QB.

     

    kid seems like a baller.

  2. I believe our first round picks will have good NFL careers.  Won’t know for a few years though, so can’t sit here and talk in absolutes  they are boom OR bust.  

     

    Aldo, can’t sit here and say a certain player would have been available if we picked in our original slots.  Teams constantly jump other teams when they believe a player is coveted by another team.  And who says those we missed on will pan out as productive NFL players??

  3. Feel from what Jordan Palmer said, and these guys that Allen has the highest ceiling than any of the other QB’s in this years draft.

     

    my concern is the Bills need the perfect mentor for him.  I trust McCarron knows his place as the bridge QB and will I his job.  Just wish the Bills had the perfect QB coach to get him to that next step.  Can’t wait for preseason to see what this kid looks like!

  4. Too many other teams want a QB this year, unless it’s a smokescreen (don’t believe it is).  Cost would prevent a trade up.  Probably our 2 firsts this year, an early rounder this year and a first next year.  Not with it for this QB class IMHO.

     

    The Bills need more than a QB.  Need Oline, RB, LB, WR along with QB.  Need to hit a few in FA, but drafting starters and depth will be very important also.  I believe there are enough FA QB’s this year to address that position for us.  I also believe the Bills May want to give Peterman another year to develop before tossing in the towel on him.

     

    I prefer they use all there picks to draft new players because it helps keep salary cap down, and sign a few good 2nd tier FA’s.  As far as QB, sign a starter in FA, that’s where they’ll  need the $$$$. 

     

    All that that being said.  If they have a conviction about a certain QB in the draft? then just do it. Whatever the cost is, just get your guy.  I just don’t believe there is that guy this year.

  5. Must say, not impressed with this guys history.

     

    Hopefully, he has learned from his mistakes, and can lead a good offense.  Don’t need flashy, just competent situational play calls, and play to the strengths on our offense.  Will be interesting seeing who stays and who leaves on the offensive staff.

     

    I feel we need a good QB, RB2 and OL depth to have an effective offense.  This of course includes keeping our WR corps intact; sans Matthews who doesn’t seem destined to come back.  Doesn’t matter if you have Bill Walsh calling the plays, if you have a QB missing wide open receivers, throwing too high or throwing too low, you aren’t going to win the big games.
