RyanC883 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 We will draft our backup/future starter. PTR Just like with the guy from Fhordam? Better to take a guy who has been in the league. You need a backup with NFL experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snamsnoops Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I suspect our qb coach will work with more than our WR and backup. I assume there's a lot more focus on fitz. In fact his career has been based on 90% qb coaching and 10% wildcat, realistically. Exactly i agree, Fitz needs work on his mechanics which will hopefully improve some of his accuracy issues. Maybe like not throwing off your back foot. I understand pressure causing QB's to do this. It is just fitz seemed to do it alot more later in the year. On top of this he was with Miami when Thiggy was there and introduced the Wildcat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I dont think Quinn even has 16 starts under his belt. He didnt look that bad when he did play, and that was for a bad bad bad browns team. With a fw years in the league he could be a good starter.

apuszczalowski Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I would have no problem bringing in Quinn, if he were available and the Bills were interested in a Qb at this time. But I don't see any signs that they are looking to make a move at QB anytime soon. FITZ IS THE STARTER, OF THE PRESENT AND FUTURE. Thigpen was signed to a 3 year deal, he has had success and knows Gaileys system, he also has worked with Lee in Miami before. He looked bad when he was thrown in during the couple games this year, but they haven't shown any signs they are unhappy with him. Lee is a Qb coach who is credited for bringing the Wild Cat back to the NFL with Miami, I'm sure the Bills reason for making him the guy they wanted to replace Cortez is because he can work with Brad Smith on the Wild Cat. The whole reason for going after Smith last offseason was to take advantage of the 3rd QB/WildCat Qb position rule change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Unless the Bills draft a QB (which I think is unlikely), Quinn is no better or worse than 80% of the backups in the league. I'd be fine with that signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 The bits of Thigpen that I saw last year were terrifying. I'd like a backup QB that could play for three series while Fitz walks off a minor injury without digging us a 21-point hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert cohen Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 when thigpen did get any limited action, he looked like a high schooler out there... i think we actually need 2 qb;s, 1 cheaper FA back up singing like a quinn who wont comprimise fitz as starter but the FO knows he was still a 1st round pick who really never got a TRUE chance to play. he did stink in cleveland, but that was just an awful offense.. 2 a 5th or 6th round development QB like keenum... not a guy like levi brown.. take a WINNER who has true upside... flynn was a 7th round pick and about to become a VERY rich man...

Those guys aren't usually sitting around, waiting to be picked up in the 7th They also don't have the room on the roster for all these QBs, unless this 7th rounder is gonna sit on the practice squad.
