LeGOATski Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 There are at least 5 QBs who are obviously better than Cardale in this draft. Probably more. Point being? Cardale's a backup. Why waste an asset on another backup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark80 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Point being? Cardale's a backup. Why waste an asset on another backup? Point being is you have to continuously take shots on finding a franchise QB every year until you hit on one. Cardale is not one. Tyrod is not one. Law of averages says the more QBs we pick, the better the chance of finding one. It's not rocket surgery. Trubisky, Watson, Mahomes, Kelly, Peterman, Kizer, all have a better chance of being a top QB than Cardale and Tyrod do. Cardale is not progressing at all and Tyrod is what he is at this point, a guy that may get us to the playoffs but no further IMO.

2003Contenders Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 It sounds like Hoyer is no longer in the picture. Given that EJ is gone, the team still needs to acquire another QB. I fully expect them to draft another QB if they don't do anything else with the position in free agency. That doesn't mean taking one in the 1st round, though.

Oregonbillsfan Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Please Draft another QB at 10 Watson if available. Hoyer does nothing for me, he's no better than Tyrod. Dump Cardale, he is not getting better. I'm ok with Tyrod at a reduced price, but he needs to compete with Watson for starter IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanInJax Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Clipboard Jones and EJ are not the answers. Kick The Tires On Tyrod Taylor. Bring in a vet and keep fishing until you catch the big one. Get him a couple WR's and a RT and hope McD straightens out the D. Like the cut on Carpenter...he was a miss machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 How about the kid from Pitt in the 3rd? I like Peterman but as of now we have no 4th round pick and that's as high as I'do go for him... Maybe by some miracle Mahomes drops to 3rd round? Doubtful.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSOL Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) It seems that everyone wants us to skip drafting a QB this year... I feel like I'm in a god damn twilight zone episode. This Its gonna take the Bears '85 defense and Walter Payton to win us a Superbowl with Tyrod Edited March 8, 2017 by Lex Lyon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wppete Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Mahomes in the 2nd round and Chad Kelly in the 6th round... Hope this happens!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I know most believe the pressure of trying to fill his uncles shoes here would be too much but I feel like Buffalo may be the only place he would succeed. Strong support system with his family around, an environment that is laid back and without constant media scrutiny like NY or LA and most importantly time to sit back, learn and hopefully eat some slices of humble pie until his chance arrives. I'm all for this really late in the draft, better yet UDFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty McFly Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I am thinking the FO does too... "We are excited about the opportunity to keep Tyrod with the Bills," McDermott said in a statement. "I've gotten a chance to know Tyrod and study him over the past several weeks and he is both a great person and competitor. Doug and I are confident this was best move for the Bills at this time." I have to think that Tyrod is a stopgap, IMHO, and others as well, this isn't the guy that is going to get us to and win a superbowl. But it is what it is right now. Mahomes. Mahomes. Mahomes.

Comebackkid Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Mahomes in the 2nd round and Chad Kelly in the 6th round... Hope this happens!!!!!And have zero supporting cast? We are short on draft picks as it is and holes all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Nope. This draft class sucks. See how Cardale does this year and take a better prospect next year, if necessary. Absolutely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Tyrod's revised deal makes him a 2 year bridge. The Bills will be looking for their long term answer at QB, but it's debatable whether this draft is a good place to find that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schpiely Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I think we grab a QB on Day 2 depending on how Round 1 shapes out. I don't think the FO sees another Carson Wentz in this Draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 They won't go QB until the 3rd round and it will either be Mahomes or Peterman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 It's hilarious how many people act like they are qb gurus. Yeah, this class of qbs sucks. So did the 2000 class where only 1 qb went in the 1st, 0 went in the second, and 2 went in the 3rd. Oh yeah, Brady went in the 6th. http://www.nfl.com/draft/history/fulldraft?season=2000 Nope, let's not draft a qb. The same guys that didn't hsve Brady go before the 6th, Russell go before the 3rd, Dak go before the 4th, or Romeo or Warner get drafted. Let's parrot everything because clearly we have demonstrated that people are great at identifying for qbs. Let's keep settling for not good enough qbs like Tyrod and Jones (not giving up on him but the odds are small). And next year we will pick on because it will be such a better class. Or it will be Matt Leinart. Or Locker. Or Logan Thomas. The Bills' model of how to spin your wheels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the majority of drafted qbs bust they have no higher chance of succeeding than TT or Cardale. You are simply throwing your opinion around when history suggests otherwise.

Not saying Cardale's a good QB but this class blows. They better not make the same mistake they did in 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
