Hazed and Amuzed Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Where is BuffaloBarbarian and how does Mallett stack up with Osweiler?? All I know is that if BB dislikes Mallett than I say we have to make the trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 If he is the next Brady or even Dalton... the Pats keep him. Heck... if he is the next Ryan Fitzpatrick or Kelly Holcomb they keep him. A good back up for the next 10 years... you keep that guy. I think he is the next Rob Johnson..... If he is the next Brady or even Dalton... the Pats keep him. Heck... if he is the next Ryan Fitzpatrick or Kelly Holcomb they keep him. A good back up for the next 10 years... you keep that guy. I think he is the next Rob Johnson..... If Mallett sees himself as a starter. And most likely he does. They will have a very hard time keeping him when his rookie contract expires, Right now the pats* no matter how it's structured have a lot of money invested in that position. Ditto with Cousins when his contract expires. I Can see them trying to get something for him today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Hence... the upcoming showcase Michael Giardi @MikeGiardi 2h Belichick was asked about Mallett. Says he knows the offense. Promises lots of playing time this preseason #PatriotsTalk Ok, then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 The reason the Pats drafted a qb in the 2nd and are working out Brady Quinn is becAuse Mallett is good. I'd definitely give a high pick to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why they drafted a qb high this year. It's the Kevin Kolb syndrome. We see it all the time. A guy plays good for a game (in Tuel's case, a preseason game) and people start talking up how good he can be. Some dumb team gives up a pick and he sucks. See The myth of Kirk Cousins. The success rate on trading for backup Qbs is like 10%. Mallett played in a qb friendly offense (see Brian Brohm). He makes Bledsoe looks fast. He isn't smart and likes coke. But other than that, he's a great prospect. Let's give NE a draft pick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Winners or smart teams such as the Pats pick up good players weather they already have some on their team or not & they do it more with QB's because you can develop them & trade them for more picks . They have been stashing Mallet letting him learn under the best until some one better that they couldn't pass on cause of his place in the draft (Garapollo) came along , now they can trade him to a team & get more picks . Seeing as the Bills have first dibs on seeing this happen every year & have been having our asses handed to us for the last ten by the Pats you would think seeing as the NFL is a copy cat league or so they say, you would think if the Bills would pay attention they might learn something ... But we most generally go about things (as my dad use to say) bass akwards !! We take a second round QB in a year that the QB class is not at all very good & not only pass on a guy that the coach knows better than any other QB in the draft but trade a pick & jump up in the first round to grab a second round QB ... Then when the next years draft comes around despite all the negatives that were pointed out by numerous football experts we pass on at least 2 very good QB prospects in the late rounds of the draft as a back up plan or at least good competition because they don't want to hurt the development or what ever of the second round guy that we got in the first round ??? K DEN --- GO BILLS !!! Edited August 5, 2014 by T master Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one will be dumb enough to give a pick for a qb NE doesn't want & has proved nothing at the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't the coke thing quite a few years ago? i am not advocating getting him, but be it second third or fourth stringers. in his rookie year in his first pre season game he started the second half and had 5 consecutive TD drives a NFL record even if pre season. but some of the late round picks this year would have been a little more desirable. he ain't no Joe Montana. have buddy put the peanut boiler down, and take the hoody* out for drinks and offer him our first round pick next year.......... Buddy knows QB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I read on here today that Tuel Time must be good because Bill Bellyache brought him in for a tryout. Heck, he even drafted this guy so he must really be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Belichick was asked about Mallett. Says he knows the offense. Promises lots of playing time this preseason He knows the offense? Already? In only his fourth season? Mallett played in a qb friendly offense (see Brian Brohm). He makes Bledsoe looks fast. He isn't smart and likes coke. But other than that, he's a great prospect. Let's give NE a draft pick! That's funny! They guy has an amazing arm, and I believe is a perfect example of why QB is about a lot more than a great arm. So, now let his march to the HOF commence!

You herd it hear last Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Belichick would never let him come here. Even the small odds of becoming really good and not having replaced Brady with him. They would absolutely vilify Billyboy in Boston especially after a Buffalo beatdown, like is gonna happen anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I criticize so many players for being "pre-packaged" products at the combine and such, but holy hell, if there ever was someone who needed some coaching it was him. I truly believe his pre-draft process cost him two rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Why would Belichick not want Mallet to come to the Bills? He traded Bledsoe to them, and he was actually a QB who could play in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureBillsGM Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Brady Quinn was on the Dan Patrick Show the other day talking about a workout he had with a mystery team. He said "the workout went well but something would have to happen in that situation before he signed". Patrick asked him if he meant an injury and Quinn hesitated and said "yeah...something like that". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He traded Bledsoe to them, and he was actually a QB who could play in the NFL. Bledsoe's clock was ticking. Mallett may be around to win the Div. for the next 10 years. (Even though typing that made me laugh) I should clarify. The ONLY reason BB would let him over here is if he sucks OR is a serious risk with off field problems. Even then, trading to the Bills would require more of a return for the cheats than a team outside imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People love to rail on him, but the dude is the ultimate competitor who loves the game. IMO, as long as Brady plays, the Hoodie will coach, too.
