Mr. WEO Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Can this thread be merged with the "trade for Luck" thread for maximum condescension...and laughter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) I didn't even need to open this thread to know most of the responses would be negative. Funny thing is when Carson Palmer looked like he might of been available a few seasons back many didn't want him either. Washed-up and broken down were the comments of the day then. Quite frankly I'm not here to say RGIII will ever return to the form of his rookie season. What I do believe is when the Bills are long time members of the NFL's QB cesspool I wouldn't be too fast to turn my nose up on anyone who has shown more in a season than the current crop of Bills starters have shown in their careers combined.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) living in Virginia I find this funny. Let his stay in DC or go somewhere else . Edited October 26, 2015 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkAF43 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Has our situation really gotten this bad? First people want Tebow, now we want RGIII? I thought we were going forward, not being the land of QB misfits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 He does need a fresh start but he's not a prototype quarterback and never has been. When he was the real deal RGIII, before Shanahan ruined his career, he didn't have to be a prototype QB. He could pretty much get away with doing anything on the field. But he's never adjusted to, post Shanahan, having to be a new version of his previous self. I'd pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Houston....... He's gong to end up in Houston. I'd put my money on Philly with Chip Kelly. If Kelly bails then whomever offers the most money, which would probably be Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17 Josh Allen Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 l love that you brought Carson Palmer up many thought he was done hell the Raiders got rid of him but it took a real coach like Bruce Arians to get him back to being the QB he could be. The same thing could happen with RG3, Philly with Chip Kelly might be very Interesting. But I don't think the Skins will let him go there. I still say are offensive Q Greg Roman is just the type of coach that could turn him around. I didn't even need to open this thread to know most of the responses would be negative.

reddogblitz Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Depending on who else is available I'd give him a shot. Bring him in, go through OTSs, camp etc. We're desperate. What do we have to lose? If he sucks, cut him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 RG3 > EJ3 any day of the week. (ps, the 3 stands for 3rd string QB) agreed, if we are going to hang on to EJ might as well bring in someone who is better than him as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuoteTheRaven83 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) maybe it's worth a shot to try RG3 and get him in here and try turn him around. He needs a fresh start, we need to let Tyrod play the rest of the games but these prototype QB's are not growing on trees. I would bring him in next year and let him compete for the Job. If I was the Bills I would also draft a QB. what say you I'd say, I wish you were the GM of the Patriots so you can run that team to the ground. With ideas like this, I think you would succeed at doing so. agreed, if we are going to hang on to EJ might as well bring in someone who is better than him as well. LOL. Have you seen RG3 play recently? The guy can't read a defense if his life depended on it. Shanahan babied him his rookie year and asked him to run the ball. The moment Shanahan told him to be a pocket passer is when RG3 tanked. RG3 is a cancer in the locker room, lacks leadership qualities, lacks work ethic and can't read a defense. He's done as a starting QB in the NFL Edited October 27, 2015 by QuoteTheRaven83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still say are offensive Q Greg Roman is just the type of coach that could turn him around. Carson Palmer had already proven that he could make plays from the pocket. I'm not sure he was awful with the Raiders, just that the Raiders were awful. I heard Steve Young say that he recalls being at a crossroads in his career where he needed to reinvent his game and play from the pocket. He said RG III is at the same point. He thinks he has the talent, but is unwilling to change his game and that he will have a short career if he doesn't . Sounds prophetic about now.

Nihilarian Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 RG III might make a good backup QB to Tyrod Taylor No he wouldn't! Because, He's not a franchise QB, running QBs don't last we need a real drop back passer This! I'd say, I wish you were the GM of the Patriots so you can run that team to the ground. With ideas like this, I think you would succeed at doing so. LOL. Have you seen RG3 play recently? The guy can't read a defense if his life depended on it.

I suppose the OP will want to trade for Colin Kaepernick next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob's House Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 RG3 Sucks at playing NFL QB. Playing in the pocket he makes EJ look like Tom Brady. His success is necessarily reliant on his ability to use his legs to survive in a simplified one read offense. Not only have defenses learned to better defend the read option system that gave him success, he refuses to run that offense - presumably because it's only a matter of time before he takes another major injury that way. I hope he saved some money; this is going to be a short ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 He can't read defenses AT ALL. He doesn't know what he is looking at. His passing success in year 1 was largely due to the Kyle Shanahan scheme which had receivers running free all over the field as DBs cheated up to try and play the run. I have said this before but Kurt Warner did a really good film breakdown on his last year for NFL Network and it was some of the most simple route concepts and reads where the game had been simplified for him by Jay Gruden and he was being asked to read one guy per play and then choose one of two throws and he was getting it wrong so often it was laughable. If he cannot operate from the pocket in those circumstances he never will be able to in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
