NastyNateSoldiers Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I don't really like any of the QB's coming out of the draft outside of Geno and Barkley. We won't be picking 1 or 2 in the draft either. Let's face it Buddy will not trade multiple picks for a QB. Remember what he said about the Skins trade with the Rams? First he laughed at the Skins saying they gave up to much and said he didn't know how good RGIII was gonna be. If he didn't think RGIII was good enough he definatly won't think Smith or Barkley is good enough. Considering that RGIII was a better prospect then either Smith or Barkley. Which leads me to my subject, I made a list of QB's I would like to see us go after that are on NFL ROSTERS. #1- Jamrcus WEBB- I really like this kid he has some skills. Very fast great runner with a cannon arm. Not the most polished but under the right system like Gaileys. This kid can flourish. I think this kid has a ton of upside. #2-Mike Vick- If the Eagles don't make the playoffs look for Vick to either be outright released or traded. I would love to have him. I think with our Offensive line we can give Vick the protection he desperatly needs. And under Gaileys system he would be the perfect QB for his offense. Even if the Bills clean house and fire Gailey. I still believe Vick or Webb will still be a good fit. #3-Tony Romo- Same as Vick. Dallas might be ready to move on after this season. Brings expericence and will be a major upgrade over Fitz. #4-Kirk Cousins- Big strong armed accurate QB with great leadership skills. I like his poise and passion to be a leader on our team. Kind of reminds me of a young Steve Young. #5-Ryan Mallet- If the Bills clean house fire ChanNix, I believe this Big strong rocket armed QB will be a great fit in Buffalo. With the windy conditions in Buffalo. This guy can throw threw those winds. These are my top five the following are on my Honorable mention list. #6-Chase Daniels #7- TJ Yates #8 -Jason Cambell #9-Matt Flynn #10-Matt Moore Ok guys Chime in who would u like to see? If I missed anyone let me know. I didn`t forget Colin Kaepernick, I just don`t think he will be available for trade. Jim Harbaugh loves this Kid. If he was on the list he would be #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Vick wouldn't be an upgrade over Fitz. If anything, this would just be a lateral move. Plus, unlike now, we would be required to have a decent back-up QB for when Vick's injured. People need to start realizing Vick is never going to carry a team deep into the playoffs.

NastyNateSoldiers Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 I disagree Vick is definatly an upgrade over Fitz.. He`s more athletic, stronger more accurate arm. Vick`s Oline is garbage he has no time to throw the ball plus he`s taken a beaten over these last two yrs. He flourished his first yr because there line was much better. But they have gotten older and injured over these last 2yrs. I do believe if we made this move that we will have to either draft a QB or trade for 1 of those other young QB`s on my list to develop in our system.

I do believe if we made this move that we will have to either draft a QB or trade for 1 of those other young QB`s on my list to develop in our system. If his name wasn't Mike Vick, you would never say that. Fitz is better in every category than Vick and Vick has 11 turnovers. He has a top 5 supporting cast and the 8th ranked defense in the NFL. The Bills are 2nd last and have a way worse receiving core. Fitz is limited but Vick is definitely not a better option. As for the other guys on your list, if you meant Joe Webb, I'm on board. Every time he plays, he makes plays. Also, Cousins doesn't have a big arm and I think he is very limited. Mallett could be interesting if he stop sniffing and ran less than a 10 flat 40. Also, the Pats will want a really high pick for him and we saw what happened the last time we traded for one of their big, slow footed QBs. Honestly, I'm sick of other teams garbage. If the Bills crap out, I want a legit 1st round QB finally. Whoever's in charge needs to do whatever they can to get one. I see a lot of Ryan Mallett on peoples list lately, doesn't anyone remember the knock on him coming out of college? He's a head case supposedly. I'm not sure if he's gotten his **** together or not but a head case is not what you want at QB. Also, he has never played against a NFL starting defense. For years, Brian Hoyer was hyped as a potential starter. Well, he got cut and I don't think he is in the league anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 My problem with Chan is that he says that Fitz won't get any better by standing on the side lines - it's been 3 years & Fitz isn't getting any better. If it hasn't happened by now then it never will. Chan should have a plan B & realize when it's time to cut our loses and move on already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NastyNateSoldiers Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 Joe Webb is the most intriguing for me. Kids runs like the wind. He has alot of upside. Nice strong arm also. Could possibly be had for a 3rd and 5th round pick. About the kids coming out in the draft. I'm not sold on Geno Smith. He kinds of reminds of VY. Maybe I'm wrong, but I never like those big 12 QB's most of them don't pan out on the pro level. That conference is always wide open football. No defenses. Matt Barkley is another guy I'm not sold on USC QB'S we know the history there. Tyler Bray, reminds me of Mallet. I think he should go in the 2nd or 3rd round. He never plays well against good comp either. At least Mallet played well vs SEC COMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Romes Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 The perplexing one not listed is Billy Volek. A little long in the tooth now, but out of football for only this year, and is a free agent. Had a strong Schaub/Flynn type resume as a backup and was seen by everyone as a potential starter. Amazingly, decided to go to SD as a backup rather than compete for a starting job. Has a career 85 rating and won a playoff game against top seeded Indy on the road in 07. Given that he never wanted the pressure of being a starter, would it be possible to coax him out of retirement to try and save the franchise?

mob16151 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Cousins is probably my favorite on the list, A guy you overlooked who I'd also be willing to take a chance on is Ricky Stanzi over in Kansas City. And Nick Foles, but I have a feeling the Eagles have him tapped as thier QB of the near, near future. Edited October 11, 2012 by mob16151 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 When Seattle announced Wilson as their starter, the Bills should have offered a trade for Flynn instead of Jackson.

NastyNateSoldiers Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 I liked Foles to but like u said he's the Eagles future QB. Some guys here don't like Mallet cause he never played in a pro game. If that's the case then we can never draft a QB cause they never played against the pro's either. At least Mallet has practiced in an NFL enviroment and played in the Preseason also. Pats will trade him to anyone it doesn't matter where as long as they get a few picks. I would offer no more then a 3 and 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit I dont get to watch much NCAA but my recollection the knock on him was deadly accurate but seriously lacking NFL arm strength. If that's not the case then sure give him a look. gotta believe at some point skins would entertain a trade to build more talent around rg3. Teams generally find it too costly to keep 2 quality QBs on the roster, in direct free agent costs or trade value opportunity costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with that argument imo is the sample size on him is more than 2+ years, it's 8+ years. 2010 sure looks like more of an outlier than the last 1+ season, despite his fans' best efforts of insisting he was a different QB/person in 2010 who just started to watch film.

I know what your saying about the retreads, but if we can draft a QB to develop behind a Vick or Romo, Flynn type why not. Vick will fit in well with what we have. Spiller and Vick in the backfield can give defenses nightmares. We also have a good set of wr's to throw to, our wr's have been open but Fitz can't get them the ball. With our OL Vick will be very comfortable. That's the problem he's having in Philly. No line. On top of all that a least Vick has a big arm and can open the field up for our wr's. That's been Fitzy major problem the field feels compressed and his throwing lanes are being closed cause he can't go downfield at all NO Defenses respect his arm at all.

NastyNateSoldiers Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 Matt Flynn is also a big upgrade over Fitz, Flynn has a better arm. He makes throws that Fitz can`t make. He throws that back shoulder pass perfectly and has enough zip to make intermediate throws downfield, he also shows some nice touch on his long balls. He doesn`t have a cannon by any means. But a least he will make defenses respect by opening up the field. Romo is also an upgrade he`s more mobile has a much better arm. With the exception of Flynn at least Romo and Vick has played and won PLAYOFF gms. Thats something Fitz will never do.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason the Vikes picked Ponder with Webb on the roster. Stop trying to recycle. Just do a good job of sucking this year and pay what ever you have to to get a guy next year.

Saint Doug Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I say pick up one of these young QBs (Yeats) in addition to drafting one in the first round. If by this time next year the Bills aren't trying to develop 2 young QBs, then something is definitely wrong. The Bills should have been grooming a young QB - maybe not first round talent - for the last 2-3 years, but haven't. Why do all these teams with decent QBs also have a young developing QB? Because their GMs are smart. Nix dropped the ball on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where there is smoke there is fire. I'm not saying Mallett hasn't "grown up" so to speak but just because he's on the pats doesn't mean he's not a head case. Haynesworth was a nut and Belichik took quite an expensive chance on him. As far as I'm concerned(and this is just a personal opinion) you don't want someone with character issues at the QB position.

He is straight trash!!! He is dumpster trash. Vick and Romo are more like storage wars auctions. Used stuff but serviceable. At least those guys seen the playoffs in this decade. Now if we draft a QB and he turns out to be better than anyone of those veterans than fine. WE have will have 2 good QB`s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markgbe Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 non of these guys. all lateral moves or downgrades. Matt Flynn might have done it for me if he didn't get beat out by Wilson this pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordio Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 The perplexing one not listed is Billy Volek. A little long in the tooth now, but out of football for only this year, and is a free agent. Had a strong Schaub/Flynn type resume as a backup and was seen by everyone as a potential starter. Amazingly, decided to go to SD as a backup rather than compete for a starting job. Has a career 85 rating and won a playoff game against top seeded Indy on the road in 07. Given that he never wanted the pressure of being a starter, would it be possible to coax him out of retirement to try and save the franchise? This is more desparate then I thought if we are all counting on Billy Volek to come out of retirement & save the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDorkula Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Here's a couple I don't see on the list that may be good too: Colt McCoy - Never got a fair shake in Cleveland with their swiss cheese OLine and bad WRs David Garrard - Did take his team to AFC Championship a few years back Trade a 7th for Colt Mccoy Trade a 6th for Kirk Cousins Draft a Qb in Rd 1. Let the battle begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
