canbuffan34 Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Simply put, Jim Kelly mentioned him (by name) in an article he wrote several months ago. Sorry, no link. We can speculate all we want about new GM and HC's decisions concerning players and the draft, FA trades.. ad nauseum BUT at the end of the day Ralph Wilson makes the decisions based on the advice of people he trusts, PERIOD! Ralph listens to Jim Kelly, Marv Levy, Thurman Thomas et al. because that group brought him success from a business standpoint and as an added bonus, a team that won on Sundays. If Buddy Nix wants Sam Bradford, and Jim Kelly wants Tim Tebow.... Tim Tebow will be the next QB taken by the Bills if he is still available.

If by some chance we draft Tebow, it will be because Nix and Gailey think he is the best fit for the type of offense Gailey will run. End of story.

Do you think Thurman would have taken the GM job if it was offered to him? Do you think Jim would have taken the title as president of the Bills? I think both would have taken these roles if offered. If Ralph is so tied to them why waste money on Nix -- just move Jim and Thurman into these roles if you are going to listen to them anyway. In fact just sell the team to Jim. Ralph now listens to Buddy and Chan. Jim loves Tebow for the intangibles -- that is what the interview to which you refer states. He was probably as shocked as anyone when he saw at the Sr. Bowl that Tebow can't handle a center snap and can't hit the broad side of a barn...

Pondslider Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 If they draft Tebow based on Jim Kelly's recommendation then this team is completely !@#$ed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfreak Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 The only way Tebow becomes a Buffalo Bill (especially anything higher than a 4th round pick) is if they replaced a bunch of idiots in the front office with a bigger bunch of idiots. He isn't going to be NFL quarterback, except maybe in a Wildcat formation and that is more than clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sllib olaffub Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I'd guess they have Bradford rated quite a bit higher and would like to have a shot at him first. But, if you consider they lose out on their first one or two qb's that they think can really be franchise guys, then I wouldn't be shocked they went for Tebow - and this depends on how high they know other teams are for him - with as low a pick as they can to ensure they get him - a 2nd, or 3rd. My reasons are that he has many upside qualities, he's proven he can win at all levels, and he has the right character. All they'd have to do is teach him. And, Gailey has said, along with Nix, that they'll build an offense around personnel. In fact, that was Gailey's strong point, and one of the reasons they said they hired him. All that points, to me anyway, of them going after Tebow by the third round, if they don't get Bradford in the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Ralph just hired a bunch of new people in the front office, and I assume he pays them millions to make personnel decisions, but they are going to draft on the basis of a statement from a retired Hall of Fame quarterback who has zero experience as a personnel guy? Dude, Jim Kelly is my favorite player ever, and my room is more or less a shrine to him, but get over your Man Crush. What is next, Jim going to go to the moon, become President, end the War in Iraq? If your post had any validity, the whole front office would be an Alumni meeting every day, all ex Players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth a team that has been this bad for this long would decide that they can afford to take a risk on an oddball, controversial, long shot project like Tebow is beyond me. There are so many holes we need to fill and so many solid prospects out there that it would border on lunacy to burn a pick on a this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
