nucci Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I'd love to see McNabb here. Then go the Green Bay/Philly route ... have whomever is "next" stand on the sidelines and learn for a few years ... whether it's Brohm or a draft pick. The days of QBs learning on the sidelines is over. Most learn on the field. Can't sign a QB to a 4-5 year contact and have him sit for 3 years.

Sherman Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 How about swapping 1st round picks and giving Philly back the 6th from the Peters trade for McNabb? Think they would do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I think a 3rd would get McNabb especially since it is a high 3rd like ours.....and I def think we should make that deal. There are more reasons then just that he is a good veteran QB...he is also a local product will help with ticket sales...... Better get aq LT to protect him though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saundena Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Mcnabb would be a good 2 year fit for the bills if it were not for the fact that he's made out of paper mâché and popcicle sticks. He would actually be killed palying behind our o line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free agents and our 1st overall pick should go to linemen.....we are set at guard and center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC882 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Are you guys serious? I would give away our 9th pick overall. Would you trade Maybin for McNabb? With the way this team wastes first rounders, I'd give them our first if they asked for it. Same here. We do much better with our 2nd round and laters.

Alphadawg7 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 The Bills should really consider going after Mcnabb. If we were lucky enough to land McNabb we would instantly become a serious playoff contender. This is what I was saying all last offseason...McNabb on this team makes us a real contender for the playoffs...well at least the healthy version of this team. Seems as soon as the season gets going we lose half our starters, but assuming we stayed relatively healthy, this team is playoff caliber with McNabb. Trade for McNabb, sign McNeil, and draft a stud LB/DE at #9 and we will be on a serious upswing under a new coaching staff next year IMO...

Alphadawg7 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I think signing McNeil would be HUGE!!! Could you imagine if this happened though... McNabb stabilizes the QB position instantly, then we have Brohm to groom under him for a couple years. McNeil anchors the young line with Wood, Levitre, Butler, and Hangartner...thats a pretty good line on paper That opens the door to go best player available at #9...most likely LB or DE, but possibly WR, DT, or OL again. If we go DE, then move Maybin to LB and we may shore up both positions with one pick... I should be GM...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The San Diego connection gives me hope, but I think SD will make every effort ro re-sign him. If we could though, I would be more than thrilled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Beat writer Reuben Frank predicts the Eagles will trade Donvoan McNabb and Michael Vick for draft picks and hand the starting job to Kevin Kolb.With McNabb angling for an extension, and the Eagles reluctant to do so, coach Andy Reid's vow to stick with his long-time starter shouldn't necessarily be taken at face value. At the very least, the Eagles are likely to entertain offers for McNabb while deciding whether to extend him or Kolb this offseason. I would love to have either of these guys, preferably McNabb. They both have the arm to throw in the weather conditions, and both have mobility to move around behind a bad line. I think Vick could be had for a 6th, maybe 7th. McNabb, maybe a 2nd and 7th or 3rd and 5th. Not sure though. Hope he wouldn't cost a first I say we trade our first round pick for McNabb or Kolb, nuts yes, but here me out. With the 9th pick in the draft, only 3-4 teams could come away with a less than average player. The Bills are one of those teams. We will more than likely get another bum player who is out played by a 5th round pick. Since 2002: 2002 Mike Williams Texas Tackle 2003 Willis McGahee Miami (FL) Running Back 2004 Lee Evans Wisconsin Wide Receiver 2004 J.P. Losman Tulane Quarterback 2005 No 1st Round Pick 2006 Donte Whitner Ohio State Safety 2006 John McCargo North Carolina State Defensive Tackle 2007 Marshawn Lynch California Running Back 2008 Leodis McKelvin Troy Defensive Back Thats 8 players since 2002, and only 1 has been an abover average starter (Evans, I will give you McKelvin is too young in his carear to judge too). I would trade ALL EIGHT of those players for McNabb. Now, another way to look at it is like this - I would trade those 8 first round picks for McNabb. So, while the 9th overall pick may have huge value to teams that draft well, it has almost no value to a team that drafts as terrible as we do. ie: Would you trade Mike Williams for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade Donte Whitner for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade Marshawn Lynch for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade JP Losman for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade Lee Evans for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade Aaron Maybin for McNadd/Kolb? YES Would you trade 2010 9th overall pick for McNadd/Kolb? I think you get my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree with your argument to trade our first for McNabb, there is one issue still and thats at Tackle. If we trade our first for McNabb then its imperative we sign a good tackle in FA. So I would much prefer to do a seond and change for McNabb or a future first rather than a first this year in case we dont get a good tackle in FA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joemac Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I totally agree. He might not be in is prime, but he is still a very solid QB. He could do wonders for us. draft a lineman (or 2) sign a DT and LB. We might not be that bad When people say bring in McNabb, I hear bring in Bledsoe. Good for a year but you better have a replacement on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
