prissythecat Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Why wouldn't the Bills exercise EJ's option at this point. Didn't Whaley call him the best backup in the NFL? If that's the case, we should be locking him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 EJ could still be here in 2017 and beyond. He's just not getting hot money for doing it. I could see him sticking around. He might not get a lot of chances elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 They have 5 QBs. They won't take it. The Browns have 5 QBs and 142 WRs. They will be the first team in history to go one-deep at every other position. #Moneyball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRs score more touchdowns than anyone. Why have a DT? How many touchdowns do they score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 They have 5 QBs. They won't take it. Bob Griffin Josh McCown Connor Shaw Austin Davis Cody Kessler You're probably right about that, though I'd rather have EJ than at least 3 of those guys. Wonder if a mid-round pick next year could get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if a mid-round pick next year could get it done. They'll keep Griffin, McCown, and Shaw. They'll put Kessler on the PS and release Davis.

mannc Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 This fifth year option thing seems like a pretty reliable way to determine whether or not a guy was a bust, or at least a disappointment. Looks like O-linemen are not faring too well, including the two "can't miss" guards (Warmack and Cooper) who were drafted much higher than guards are usually taken. Seems like O-line might be one of the more difficult positions to project at the next level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be in the NFL with some team after this season given how bad the backups are in the league. @NFLTotalAccess Here are some players who had their 5th-yr option picked up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
