respk Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 While Buffalo has to find 2 QBs to bring in, let's hope Cleveland wins this.
Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I don't get the hate Bills fans have for this move if it happens? Take your pick in free agency, nothing great. McCown and Locker fit the scheme the best.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Nothing but an insurance policy I guess CBF

Doesn't Roman prefer a mobile QB?

Take your pick in free agency, nothing great. McCown and Locker fit the scheme the best. I don't think McCown is any better than EJ and McCown has no upside. He is what he is. At least with Locker he's young, reports are that he has shown some above average play at times (yes he has injury issues) and has some potential to get much better. McCown will play one or two years and then the Bills are right back where they are now at QB. No viable candidates on the roster only those that "may" have some potential.
Flip Johnson Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I expect the Bills to sign McCown, a mediocre QB who fits Roman's system. Then I expect them to draft a QB (maybe Hundley) in rd. 3 or 4. While I've been intrigued by Locker, it is a lot to expect of Roman and David Lee to work with three projects at the same time. It makes sense to have one known quantity on the roster and pour most of your teaching time and energy into the two young bucks with the hopes that one of them will really pop in training camp.

I still don't know what the issue is?

Yes, but next years potential FA QB class looks to be very strong. Maybe that's the plan. Get through this year, if EJ steps up that great, if not, sign a guy next year.

OldTimer1960 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I would prefer Locker or even Ponder to McCown because they at least have a chance to get better.

Why would you want them to get better, you think they are franchise material? It doesnt matter who we talk about, there is no upside. Edited February 26, 2015 by TheTruthHurts
