26CornerBlitz Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) @BuffRumblings .@RapSheet hints that #Bills will likely keep Tyrod Taylor: https://t.co/xt9N9ixsEg In an interview on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football, Ian Rapoport spoke on the future of Tyrod Taylor. This is the full quote on what the Bills’ hire of offensive coordinator Rick Dennison means for the quarterback: “This is pretty good news because he was the quarterbacks coach in Baltimore when Tyrod Taylor was the backup to Joe Flacco. So there’s a lot of familiarity here. It would make no sense if the Bills hired Rick Dennison, and then got rid of Tyrod Taylor... one of the reasons he signed there. So do not be surprised if Taylor is back.” Edited January 23, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireChan Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Fairly certain McDermott has control of the hiring of his coaching staff. I don't know if you saw the "keeping TT part" but that's the part Whaley has control over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Terrible news. Whaley strikes again putting his job security ahead of the team. How does keeping Taylor secure his job? Also, what if the HC and OC went to Whaley and said to keep Taylor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 How does keeping Taylor secure his job? Also, what if the HC and OC went to Whaley and said to keep Taylor? Just remember that you're responding to someone who wants the Bills to sign Johnny Manziel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireChan Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 How does keeping Taylor secure his job? Also, what if the HC and OC went to Whaley and said to keep Taylor? Wins him 8 games or so without any chance at real success. Short term thinking. Say too bad, I got hired as the GM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 In a well-functioning organization the GM would not make a decision regarding something as important as the starting QB without thorough discussion with the HC (and ownership). I'm not saying the Bills are such an organization, but to presume this is Whaley's decision in a vacuum is extremely naive. If true, it signals that McDermott and his staff don't believe the Bills are in need of a full rebuild in 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iommi Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I don't know if you saw the "keeping TT part" but that's the part Whaley has control over. The owner and Whaley both stated the coaching staff would play a role in deciding Taylor's future. So far I would say that no one really has a firm grasp on what the Bills will do. This is conjecture at this point. Comparably I would prefer they keep Taylor over an option of Manziel or Cutler. But to each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdogtim Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Now I'm confused. Are the Bills more dysfunctional if they keep Tyrod or if they release him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 The decision to keep TT or not is entirely up to the new coaching staff and will be made after they have broken down every snap Taylor has taken and much of that analysis will be done with TT's input as well.

Magox Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I'm totally fine with retaining Tyrod and looking to draft a QB to develop alongside Cardale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when Incognito was a "perish the thought" signing? Pepperidge Farms remembers. What was your take on that? Something something, toxic player. Something something bad for the locker room. Something something NFW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
