#34fan Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 The article says Falk is obsessed with copying Brady, even down to his nutrition...he is a leader on and off the field and is loved by everyone...Don't be surprised if this guy is the 1st or 2nd QB off the board, especially if Darnold stays in school...Bills would be very fortunate to get Falk...let's just hope the teams ahead of us are dumb enough not to take him. As of right now... I give a big, fat, NO to Luke Falk... For lots of reasons.... Not the least of which being his clumsiness, and lack of awareness in the pocket... Yes, he has a big arm, but that's about it... Unless something changes drastically in the next six months, you're looking at a project QB, at most.

I don't know if you have been watching Falk at all because for starters he doesn't have that big of an arm and he's actually very comfortable and smooth in Leach's offense. So, I don't get the clumsy and lack of awareness in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 (edited) air-raid offenses scare me, QBs (Falk/Washington St) from those systems rarely pan out in the NFL. I havent looked at the possible QBs for the next draft yet, but i would like to see the Bills find a guy who can read defenses, the whole field, and throw with anticipation. Dont care about arm strength (anything above a noodle for an arm is fine). Guy has to be intelligent enough to understand all the variables on the field. Even a mediocre passing threat will create offensive balance. One trick ponies at the QB spot let defenses off easy. You have to run and throw to win in this league.

BuffaloFan68 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 My early prediction is that Darnold goes first overall & the Bills do what they need to do to trade up & land Josh Rosen for our future franchise QB. Let's Go Buffalo!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless something changes drastically in the next six months, you're looking at a project QB, at most. Have you watched many of his games? Just curious because from what I've seen he's pretty smooth and doesn't really have a huge cannon for an arm. I'm by no means a QB expert, but I like what I've seen of him. I also have liked what I've seen from UW's Browning. Edited July 30, 2017 by Maynard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 ...perhaps actually PLAYING the 2017 collegiate season brings some semblance to all of these wild prognostications that are laughable.......hell even the Weather Channel won't forecast September 2017 yet....go figure.....

Some guys will rise, others will fall but in general we know the candidates and roughly how many will be 1st rounders.

Which begs the question: what do you think the over/under is on how many go in the first round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 5 (Jets, Bills, 49ers, Cardinals, Browns, Miami, Chargers, Redskins, Jags, and more are all candidates) Not the Jags, Doug is just going to hand it off on every play! I pray the Jets acquisition of Kaepernick allows them to win enough games to miss the best guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be the difference between 2 wins and 4ish. That could move them to pick 3-4 instead of 1 or 2. They are going to be awful either way but why put yourself in position to miss the top guys?

yungmack Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Keep this in mind when arguing over which of the likely top picks is the best (Darnold, Rosen, Falk, Mayfield, et al) that at this time last year, hardly anyone outside USC and his family and friends knew who Sam Darnold was. In other words, good as all these guys are, we could all be surprised by a breakout season by someone unknown to us right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things could improve between now and January... My advice to any fan who thinks he's "our guy" is to watch the big games... Boise St on 9/9, USC on 9/29, Cal on 10/13, STAN on 11/4, and UW on 11/25... Edited July 30, 2017 by #34fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, it's certainly early. A year ago this time people were talking about tanking for Watson. He ended up as a top 10 pick. A lot of these guys we are talking about will be in the mix.
